Thanks for using ggstackplot! Before filing an issue, there are a few places to explore and pieces to put together to make the process as smooth as possible.

Make a reprex

Start by making a minimal reproducible example using the reprex package. If you haven’t heard of or used reprex before, you’re in for a treat! Seriously, reprex will make all of your R-question-asking endeavors easier (which is a pretty insane ROI for the five to ten minutes it’ll take you to learn what it’s all about). For additional reprex pointers, check out the Get help! section of the tidyverse site.

Where to report a bug

Armed with your reprex, file an issue on GitHub. However, before opening a new issue, be sure to search issues and pull requests to make sure the bug hasn’t been reported and/or already fixed in the development version. By default, the search will be pre-populated with is:issue is:open. You can edit the qualifiers (e.g. is:pr, is:closed) as needed. For example, you’d simply remove is:open to search all issues in the repo, open or closed.

What happens next?

Development of our packages tends to be very bursty, so you shouldn’t worry if you don’t get an immediate response. Typically we don’t look at a repo until a sufficient quantity of issues accumulates, then there’s a burst of intense activity as we focus our efforts. That makes development more efficient because it avoids expensive context switching between problems, at the cost of taking longer to get back to you. This process makes a good reprex particularly important because it might be multiple months between your initial report and when we start working on it. If we can’t reproduce the bug, we can’t fix it!
