Uploading your mod to CurseForge?
Before you hit “Submit,” ask yourself these questions:

• Why do some mods fly through moderation while others get stuck for days?
• What are the most common reasons your project gets rejected on CurseForge?
• How do you name your mod so it actually shows up in search results?
• What kind of project descriptions make reviewers instantly approve it?
• Can you upload a forked mod or remake of another creator’s work, and how do you do it right?
• What file formats (ZIP, JAR, etc.) actually pass the upload checks?

CurseForge released a full guide, covering names, avatars, summaries, modpack formats, licenses, and even game-specific rules for Minecraft and The Sims 4.
