Suggestion: Add recommended version to the map info and map listing

[cleavinghammer]

Currently the Recommended Version information is under the Contents header at the very bottom of a map's info section, which has a tendency to be buried underneath the images and walls of text providing information on the map, resulting in people asking which version they need in the thread.

Moving/displaying the version information at the top in the same box as the download button could help people know which version they need before downloading a map.

In the same vein, having the version information displayed in the map listing (alongside the filesize and download button) could be useful.

What could work is instead of

this:

Of course that won't help bundles too much unless you can make a scroll bar there like so:

That might be even better.

Ew. Not fond of the scroll bar there. And remember mobile and narrow screens.

But can adding the info to the top box be done?

Or given that they have some information in common like filesize and author, make them both the same but for the download button?

Personally, I write the required version in red text and large font size at the beginning of the description.
I still get asked a lot why my campaigns do not work when people have version X.XX so I think it is only a few that read this.
I am not opposed top this idea, though you would have to find a way how to properly implement it for bundles that have several maps, though in most cases those should share requirements you would expect.
@Ralle can we add a text field there to the top that the author can (optionally?) fill with the version requirement Info?

I can agree with this.

 

[Ralle]

Description sounds fine for me. But I will think about it. Why is it that you don't think the built-in "Recommended version" can be used?

 

[cleavinghammer]

No, the issue is that it doesn't appear in the top box but in the bottom one, which is harder to find since there's all the map description in the way.

My suggestion is that the "Recommended version" field appear in the top box as well.
