@jbk2 Thanks for opening an issue! I'll look into this.

@jbk2 I tried making draft issues in a couple of my own projects, and the option still there. They don't open a draft issue in a repo or anything, but it says in the article that they're just on the project board where they're created, until you convert them into a normal issue. 🤷‍♀️

I'm not sure why the feature works the way it does, or how many use-cases there are for it, but it is available, so I'm going to close this issue.

@Sharra-writes , I just went to check whether I could create a draft issue and so strange the option is now there for me, it 100% wasn't there for me last week when i was looking into this, I even had to create a placeholder repo to create issues against, and I spent a good 45mins on trying to find out why my project would not allow me to create a draft issue. Low and behold, now I look, exact same Project, and I do now have the option to create a Draft Issue, last week I definitely only had 'create new issue' or 'add from repository', strange.:

Anyway, really sorry to have wasted your time @Sharra-writes, but thanks for looking into it and shutting this down.

@jbk2 Weird! Honestly, I would rather waste my time on random functionality hiccups than on bots spamming things ranging from crypto to their skills as session musicians, so never feel like it's not worth having us look into. 💛

Thanks @Sharra-writes - btw, there's a web dev curriculum called The Odin Project (which I've completed over last two years) that could really do with work on re-writes of their curriculum. Unsure whether they know it or not, or whether they'd pay for such a thing. But, having suffered many frustrations via courtesy of poorly written elements of their curriculum, and having just run into you here as a professional writer, I thought I'd mention it just in case you're in need of further bits on your portfolio. www.theodinproject.com, an active Discord & Reddit and mods easy to reach. Rgds.

@jbk2 Thanks for the recommendation! I'm definitely curious enough to have a look.
