[simcop2387]

Description

when installing https://modrinth.com/plugin/advanced-portals/versions it's getting the oldest version v0.0.41 from 2 years ago instead of the newest version.

doing it via the command /pp view "axTqSWQA" MODRINTH --byId
history log looks like this:

[25/12/24 11:38:59] simcop2387 INITIATED_INSTALL Advanced Portals from MODRINTH with ID 667c31de64b550bf31f1b309

Once my whole Skyblock sever broke because the plugin updater updated it to the newest version (1.21.7-8) instead of my version (1.21.4).

There could be a warning to "Please back-up your server via a Backup plugin or the Server Panel and than run '/pp update confirm' to continue"

when updating a plugin like packetevents from modrinth, it installed the velocity version!

@MLGPenguin this should be relatively easy to fix, we store both versions in the db, I assume it just installs the first/latest download url which can be either the proxy or game url.

I have an issue with plugin portal not detecting new versions of a plugin. For me it's AxGraves from Modrinth. It seems to be sure that 1.23.1 is the latest version for a 1.21.6 Paper server:

When there have been at least 2 more releases that also support 1.21.6:

As you can see there are newer versions and the number of downloads doesn't match what Modrinth says.
I used plugin portal to install AxGraves only a few day ago and it installed 1.23.1 version of it from October.
Also it doesn't seem to grab the plugin logo from Modrinth, but that's not a big issue.
