Extra note: ADDMOTD seems to require a REHASH in order to be applied.
Steps To Reproduce1) Add lines to your MOTD using SVSMOTD.
2) Connect
3) Notice there is not the MOTD that you added
4) type /MOTD which /does/ include lines from SVSMOTD
5) ???
6) relax
Additional InformationAlso take a look at ADDMOTD which indeed writes to the file but seems to require a rehash to apply. not sure if intended behaviour =]

First some detail out of the way: SVSMOTD does not require a REHASH. You can see it in the code that it writes and re-reads immediately.

Anyway, on to the main issue...
In the default configuration (no files { } or tld { } block) i can reproduce that anything added by SVSMOTD is not shown in the motd on connect but is shown if you manually request a MOTD (without rehash needed).
So yeah, seems you are onto something :D

Your PR removed the whole concept of a short motd though, so that is not the way to fix it.

 Fixed now:
commit 89fe8e922734eb215be0586344cd463e0c0d8254 (HEAD -> unreal60_dev, origin/unreal60_dev)
Author: Bram Matthys <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Mar 23 08:06:23 2022 +0100

    SVSMOTD lines are now shown in the MOTD-on-connect, unless a shortmotd is used.
    What is a SVSMOTD? The SVSMOTD are MOTD lines that are shown at the end of
    an existing MOTD. These lines are added remotely through services.
    
    Previously the SVSMOTD lines were never shown in the MOTD-on-connect, which
    was a bug. We were only supposed to hide it if a short motd is in use.
    
    Reported by Valware in https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=6070

Thanks for the report! If you feel like you still have some other issue with (SVS)MOTDs or anything, let us know.
