(view - edit - history - purge) Documentation

Description

Simple container for the steam workshop tokens table. Doesn't even necessarily need to be in the template namespace. Moved this info so it could be transcluded on multiple pages, but maintained in one place.

Usage

{{Steam workshop tokens}}

Output

Steam Workshop tokens

These tokens are used to get the mod to work on Steam Workshop.

Token	Arguments	Usage	Description
STEAM_TITLE	string	Required	The title of the mod on Steam Workshop.
STEAM_DESCRIPTION	string		The description of the mod on Steam Workshop.
STEAM_TAG	string		Any number can be used.
STEAM_KEY_VALUE_TAG	string1, string2		Any number can be used.
STEAM_METADATA	string		Sets arbitrary metadata for an item. This metadata can be returned from queries without having to download and install the actual content. Toady doesn't know what it does [1].
STEAM_CHANGELOG	string		A changelog for the version you're uploading. This should be different each time you update a mod, and only include the changes in the new version. Steam Workshop congregates all version changelogs, so a full changelog can be seen there.
STEAM_FILE_ID	string	Required (subsequent times)	Connects the mod to an entry on the Steam Workshop. Generated automatically the first time you upload a mod to Workshop, do not include it manually. If you upload a mod with an existing STEAM_FILE_ID token, it will update the Workshop entry connected to the ID. You can presumably only do this if you're the original uploader of said mod.
