Explanation
Custom issue forms in GitHub are defined using YAML files stored in the .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ directory of a repository. GitHub automatically detects form definition files (e.g., bug_report.yml, feature_request.yml) in this specific path and presents them to users when they open a new issue. The paths .issues, .issues/ISSUE_TEMPLATE, and .GitHub are all incorrect - GitHub only reads issue templates from .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/.
