# Issue and Pull Request Templates
Some projects have a standard list of questions that users need to answer
when creating an issue or pull request. Gitea supports adding templates to the
main branch of the repository so that they can autopopulate the form when users are
creating issues and pull requests. This will cut down on the initial back and forth
of getting some clarifying details.
Possible file names for issue templates:
* ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md
* issue_template.md
* .gitea/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md
* .gitea/issue_template.md
* .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md
* .github/issue_template.md
Possible file names for PR templates:
* PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md
* pull_request_template.md
* .gitea/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md
* .gitea/pull_request_template.md
* .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md
* .github/pull_request_template.md
Additionally, the New Issue page URL can be suffixed with `?body=Issue+Text` and the form will be populated with that string. This string will be used instead of the template if there is one.
