[1.7.10] mcmod.info Problem

Ok, simple problem I think. The ${version} tag (I don't know the technical term) in the mcmod.info file does not display properly in the mod list interface. I used the example mod with some tweaked things.

Here's what it looks like:

mcmod.info:

[
{
  "modid": "ortus",
  "name": "Ortus",
  "description": "A content-heavy mod designed to add more chances for adventuring.",
  "version": "${version}",
  "mcversion": "${mcversion}",
  "url": "",
  "updateUrl": "",
  "authorList": ["TLHPoE"],
  "credits": "The creators of Forge and FML",
  "logoFile": "",
  "screenshots": [],
  "dependencies": []
}
]

Main mod class:

package ortus;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPostInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;

@Mod(modid = Ortus.ID, version = Ortus.VERSION)
public class Ortus {
public static final String ID = "ortus";
public static final String VERSION = "1.0";

@EventHandler
public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) {
}

@EventHandler
public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
}

@EventHandler
public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event) {
}
}
