Can't do that.
The 'Download Wrapper' field is normally called 'Download' in IPB. Just one name.
I've renamed the 'Download' Button to 'Download Wrapper', because if it were still called 'Download', people would think it was the full thing and try to run it. Which doesn't work so well on barebone Wrappers.
Because most of the things here are only Wrappers and Wrapper-based, this clears out 99% of the confusion of the files.
So one name for all Categories, regardless of Wrappers or complete apps.
Perhaps later we'll find out how to change the name dependent on sections, but the system cannot do this for now.
Also what's a Client Port?

I see...
Uh, Game Client... but Cobalt Alpha Client is available for Windows only... That's why I called 'Client Port'.

btw, that Port has been pretty wrongly posted, see my first comment there.
Please tell SONNEH13 to edit this Database entry.
I see i have to do a tutorial after all about how to post in the Port Database.
And i thought everything was self explaining.
Still ignoring all description fields on the posting page is pretty hardcore.

He uploaded full client... (Cobalt client is free)
Is full client port allowed?

I said nothing about no free things allowed, I said that post can be done better. MUCH better.

Still no changes to that Port.
I've sent SONNEH13 a Message about it.
If he doesn't comply with the linksave rule or adds some more info to that port, i'm going to remove that Port from the Port Database.

It's not.
Ignored description below link field? check.
ignored requirements for mac users? check.
ignored graphic card fields? check.
ignored installation instructions? check.
ignored known issues? check.
ignored linksave link hiding rule? double check.
why should this be ok?
This was simply posting a download link in the Port database, without anything else.
I'll have to do a 'how to post your port' after all.

Not possible. would look like crap. also would mess up our whole category view, since all custom fields are shown in the right bar in category view.
