[Request] Automatic Information/FAQ pages from mod.zip

Post by eradicator »

It would be really nice if the mod portal could automatically read information.md and faq.md when a new version is uploaded. Unlike changelog.txt this doesn't require any special parsing as file.md can just contain plain markdown.

This would streamline the version updating process to a single upload and allow info/faq to be easily managed with version control systems.

[Edit: There's a similar suggestion here.]
