I have created yml based github issue templates in a repo in my organization. They work as expected.
However, when I put these into the organizations .github repo, they neither work as templates for that repo nor do they show up as templates on repositories in the organization that don't have issue templates.
What might I be doing wrong? Does anyone have this working that I could look at?
I initially tried this with markdown, so switched over to yml issue templates. That change didn't seem to make a difference.
I got the impression that a config.yml might be needed, so I added the config.yml to add other methods of commenting. The config.yml does work in a normal repository, but seems to do nothing in the .github repo.
