Currently the first few lines of the changelog are used as a summary for display on the Discord in the #mod-updates automated post. This behavior is undocumented.
Introduce a new required summary field to clearly take this purpose.
- The field should be character limited (length, # of newlines) to what the mod-updates post supports.
- Should field support markdown?
- Field should not allow the words
version, changelog or a semversion (exact exclude list subject to change). This is to encourage people to write an actual summary instead of something restating the mod version again.
- When viewing a version page, the summary should be shown in its own box at the top
- Field could also be shown as a short summary on the Mod Versions page
- Existing mod versions without this field could either respond with empty string or the first few lines of the changelog to mimic old behavior
