Hey, stop right there!

We use GitHub to track feature requests and bug reports. Please do not submit issues for questions about how to use features of Kibana, how to set Kibana up, best practices, or development related help.

However, we do want to help! Head on over to our official Kibana forums and ask your questions there. In additional to awesome, knowledgeable community contributors, core Kibana developers are on the forums every single day to help you out.

The forums are here: https://discuss.elastic.co/c/kibana

We can't stop you from opening an issue here, but it will likely linger without a response for days or weeks before it is closed and we ask you to join us on the forums instead. Save yourself the time, and ask on the forums today.
Issue templates for features, bugs, and questions (#18892) The bug report and feature request templates are pretty straightforward. The question template will hopefully drive people that just have a question toward the forums. 2018-05-08 00:52:55 +02:00			`---`

No markdown in "question" issue template Since the default view for new issues is the edit view, and we don't intend for folks to submit issues that are created using the question template, markdown really only makes things harder to read. 2018-05-08 00:59:04 +02:00			`Hey, stop right there!`
