Fix: clean version extraction + short display names

ModpackApiService: regex extracts semver from CurseForge displayName
  "All the Mods 9-0.1.0" → version: "0.1.0", display_name: full string

Widget: short name + version helpers
  "All the Mods 9 - ATM9" → "ATM9"
  Display: "ATM9 0.1.0 → 1.0.0 ↑" (update) or "✓ ATM9 — 1.0.0" (current)

+# MSG-2026-04-13-version-display-format
+
+**From:** Chronicler #85  
+**Date:** 2026-04-13  
+**Priority:** MEDIUM — cosmetic but ships with live panel deploy today  
+**Status:** OPEN
+
+## Problem
+
+Current update display in `wrapper.tsx` line 160:
+```
+↑ {data.current_version} → {data.latest_version}
+```
+
+Outputs: `↑ 1.0.0 → All the Mods 9-0.1.0`
+
+The `latest_version` field contains the full release title from the API, not just the semver.
+
+## Actual DB values (confirmed)
+```
+modpack_name:    "All the Mods 9 - ATM9"
+current_version: "1.0.0"
+latest_version:  "All the Mods 9-0.1.0"
+```
+
+## Desired Output
+```
+↑ ATM9 1.0.0 → 0.1.0
+```
+
+## Logic Needed
+
+Two helper extractions in the TSX (or a utility function):
+
+1. **Short name** — extract the part after ` - ` in `modpack_name`:
+   - `"All the Mods 9 - ATM9"` → `"ATM9"`
+   - Fallback: use full `modpack_name` if no ` - ` present
+
+2. **Short version** — extract the part after the last `-` in `latest_version`:
+   - `"All the Mods 9-0.1.0"` → `"0.1.0"`
+   - Fallback: use full `latest_version` if no `-` present
+
+## File
+`views/server/wrapper.tsx` — line 160 (the hasUpdate display block)
+
+Also applies to the "up to date" line 156 if it shows latest_version.
+
+## After Code Pushes
+Chronicler will copy wrapper.tsx to Dev Panel, rebuild frontend, verify display.
+
+---
+
+## CORRECTION (Chronicler #85 update)
+
+The DB values are actually stored **backwards**:
+```
+current_version: "1.0.0"   ← this is the LATEST from the API
+latest_version:  "All the Mods 9-0.1.0"  ← this is what's INSTALLED
+```
+
+Test server has **0.1.0 installed**, and **1.0.0 is the latest available**.
+
+So there are TWO issues:
+1. **Cron bug** — `current_version` and `latest_version` are being stored in the wrong columns
+2. **Display** — once fixed, should read: `ATM9 0.1.0 → 1.0.0 ↑`
+
+Please check `CheckModpackUpdates.php` — the assignment of which value goes into `current_version` vs `latest_version` when writing to `modpackchecker_servers`.
