7th Heaven Catalog Mod Submission/Update Pushing

If you are a mod developer and have a mod you'd like to put in the catalog or need to update your existing mod, this can now be done entirely by you without the need for a "catalog maintainer" or moderator.

The catalog is stored on our GitHub and anyone with an account can create a pull request. These pull requests will then be reviewed and approved by one of us with a single click. You no longer need to wait for one of us to have free time to communicate back and forth and put together your catalog entry. This should enable mods to be updated with much more frequency.

To do this:
-Create a https://github.com/ account if you don't already have one.

-Go to https://github.com/tsunamods-codes/7th-Heaven-Catalogs/blob/master/catalogs/qhimm.xml

-Click on the pen button to edit the catalog xml. (Since you've likely made a mod with a mod.xml file at this point, you should be very familiar with how it works.)

You can use this template to add your mod.
Code: [Select]
<Mod>
    <ID></ID>
    <Name></Name>
    <Author></Author>
    <Category></Category>
    <Description></Description>
    <LatestVersion>
      <Link></Link>
      <Version></Version>
      <ReleaseDate></ReleaseDate>
      <CompatibleGameVersions></CompatibleGameVersions>
      <PreviewImage></PreviewImage>
      <ReleaseNotes>
      </ReleaseNotes>
      <DownloadSize></DownloadSize>
    </LatestVersion>
    <Link></Link>
    <DonationLink></DonationLink>
    <Tags>
      <string></string>
    </Tags>
  </Mod>
*Please note the release date MUST be in YYYY-MM-DD format
*Download links should be in the following format:
Code: [Select]
iros://Url/https://example.com/mod.7z or if hosting from google drive:
Code: [Select]
iros://GDrive/1owHpoLhdW98Np8Fyhj7-hj_RG64TxwsL and file type must be .7z, .iro or .irop
 The catalog xml is arranged by category so please try to put yours in an appropriate place (this doesn't effect where your mod shows up in the actual catalog.)

-Once finished, click the save changes at the bottom of the page and follow the prompts to complete your pull request.

-While your pull request is under review, it will appear here: https://github.com/tsunamods-codes/7th-Heaven-Catalogs/pulls. If there are any questions or issues with your pull request, you will be notified there.

And that's it!
