I want to access pages such as community, contributors to see the effect of members on the repository, but I cannot click it because it is disabled. What could be the reason for this?
These insights are only available in public repositories with GitHub Free and GitHub Free for organisations as well as in public and private repositories with GitHub Pro, GitHub Team and GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

I followed the guide here https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team#latest/actions/learn-github-actions/sharing-workflows-with-your-organization.
I successfully created a GitHub Organization shared workflow and can access this shared workflow if I create a public repo under the organization or my account (I am a member of the organization).
However, if I create a private repo I do not see the shared workflow. I am using the free-tier for my membership account and organization, so I'm not sure if that is the issue. There was no documentation stating that was a requirement.
Only possible in GitHub Enterprise plan organizations:
to use templates to create workflows in private repositories, the organization must be part of an enterprise plan.

You can also create workflow templates in the .github repository and
share them with other users in your organization.

When I use the GitHub Bot, it only displays GitHub repositories that I own. It does not include repositories, issues, and pull requests for an organization that I contribute to.
How do I connect a GitHub organization to Microsoft Teams so that I can list and post details of issues and pull requests I created in my organization?
This feature is currently not available. The GitHub Microsoft Teams integration creators have added it to their feature backlog.
Thank you for sharing the feedback. Currently the GitHub bot don't have features to support for organization related repositories, issues and pull request that we contribute. We have added this in feature backlog and will discuss with feature team regarding prioritization. — Subhasish-MSFT
I'm looking at connecting my GitHub account in the version control section of PhpStorm. The JetBrains guide suggests using a personal token but as I'm new to personal tokens in GitHub I'm unsure when creating the personal token what scopes I should be selecting so that it can work but doesn't have to much access.
Can someone please let me know which options I should be selecting and why?
All help is greatly appreciated!
You can read about the scopes in "About scopes for OAuth Apps".
In your case, as described in "Pushing to remote Git repository from a build"
The scope needed is public_repo for a public repository or repo for a private repository.
public_repo
Grants read/write access to code, commit statuses, collaborators, and deployment statuses for public repositories and organizations. Also required for starring public repositories.
repo
Grants read/write access to code, commit statuses, invitations, collaborators, adding team memberships, and deployment statuses for public and private repositories and organizations.
I am new to GitHub and ran into a strange problem. I have a GitHub Enterprise account, and am trying to add other GitHub account users as collaborators to a repo. When I searched for their user names, it errored with a message "XXX isn't a GitHub member". I am very sure that the users I am trying to add just created free public accounts on Github.com and I am searching with the right user names. Can anyone shine some light?
Thanks,
Annie
GitHub.com and your GitHub enterprise are two completely different different instances. They do not share any user data.
This means to add a collaborator to a project on your GitHub enterprise instance the user needs to create an account on this GitHub enterprise instance and not on GitHub.com
I want to protect my project on Github. I just want me and my co-worker can download the project. How can I do that?
Thanks.
What you are looking for is called a 'private repository'.
Private repositories are not available for free accounts so you will have to get an upgrade for you account.
You need a premium account to make private repositories

You can make the repository private. In order to do this you must be paying for github because it is not available on the free version. Bitbucket allows for unlimited private repositories and serves the same purpose.
