I miss a meta field with FEN of the initial position. I could search for a FEN string in my big collection of puzzles to know if the position is already there or is it a new one. Please, consider adding a field for FEN.
]]>It’s difficult (impossible without editing the mini.css file) to change the width of the buttons under the diagram. Please, remove line 358 width: 80px !important in the file chessgame-shizzle/thirdparty/pgn4web/mini.css (or remove only !important to let us change the width in the customiser)
]]>I have been trying to find the basics for the use of plugin Chessgame Shizzle. I have installed and activated the plugin but I have no idea how to use it. Do I have to import chess games from a PGN-file? It does not seem like I can add a chess game directly into the plugin? Where do I find the absolute basic for the use of this plugin? Thank you
]]>Hello
Is it possible to invert the chessboard ?
Thx JMD
]]>The popular pairings program Vega Chess, can use Shizzle’s inbuilt game viewer, pgn4web, to display games. Vega outputs the results of a tournament to the web in a viewer-friendly manner, and when things are set up correctly, each of the games reported in the results output will link out to the gameviewer. The approach is described in detail on pages 34-35 of the Vega manual:
https://www.vegachess.com/download/vega8_en.pdf
I was wondering if anyone has tried using a similar approach with Shizzle?
Thanks
Geoff.
When I try to print a PDF of selected chessgame posts using the plugin Print My Blog I have the board and moves only for the first post, next posts show only players and metadata, without board and moves. How to make them visible?
]]>Please, help me to hide the title of a chessgame that is added to a post with extended shortcode. I can’t figure out how to do it.
]]>Hi Marcel,
Im using the Twenty Sixteen theme, and while the plug-in is working beautifully on desktops and tablets, the board size is too big for mobile screens. Only the LHS 5.5 files are showing, and likewise the RHS of annotations area is clipped.
Strangely, Shizzle worked fine on a mobile with Twenty Fifteen, but I want to stick to Twenty Sixteen.
Many thanks for any suggestions!
Geoff
I wish I could export PGN only from posts of a certain category or term.
]]>All the NAGs are here
chessgame-shizzle/thirdparty/pgn4web/pgn4web.js
starting from line 3000. I needed to display $18 as +- instead of the text “White has a decisive advantage”. To do that I changed the text in NAG[18] (line 3018) by +-. There isn’t NAG[19] because NAGs are paired starting from NAG[14]. So, to translate $19 as -+ I changed the line 3080 like this { NAG[i+1] = NAG[i].replace(“+-“, “-+”); }
Now PGN text is displayed like in chess books. Maybe someone needs it too.
Hi Marcel,
Will You please show how to insert pgn-game into standart post. I can’t do that. Sorry, your tips are not clear
For instance, this game
[Event "1<sup>st</sup> American Chess Congress"]
[Site "New York, NY USA"]
[Date "1857.11.03"]
[Round "4.6"]
[White "Paulsen, Louis"]
[Black "Morphy, Paul"]
[Result "0-1"]

8. Bc4 b5 9. Be2 Nxe4 10. Nxe4 Rxe4 11. Bf3 Re6 12. c3 Qd3 13. b4 Bb6
14. a4 bxa4 15. Qxa4 Bd7 16. Ra2 Rae8 17. Qa6
{Morphy took twelve minutes over his next move, probably to assure himself that
the combination was sound and that he had a forced win in every variation.}
17... Qxf3 !! 18. gxf3 Rg6+ 19. Kh1 Bh3 20. Rd1 ({Not} 20. Rg1 Rxg1+
21. Kxg1 Re1+ -+) 20... Bg2+ 21. Kg1 Bxf3+ 22. Kf1 Bg2+
(22...Rg2 ! {would have won more quickly. For instance:} 23. Qd3 Rxf2+
24. Kg1 Rg2+ 25. Kh1 Rg1#)
23. Kg1 Bh3+ 24. Kh1 Bxf2 25. Qf1 {Absolutely forced.} 25... Bxf1 26. Rxf1 Re2
27. Ra1 Rh6 28. d4 Be3 0-1Thanx

That’s why such chessprograns as Chessbase or Fritz don’t open it.

[Data “2021”]

and so on.

]]>Morning guys !
Thank you for this great plugin.
However, I want to ask you some questions and I wish you have answers for them.
I do have an online tournamement project which I want to build using this plugin.
Will that be possible ? what do you think?
Also I want to know with which languages was made so I will know which programmer I will call for the project.
Thanks in advance!
Sincerly,
]]>Hi, i read in the Plug-In Description that there is some sort of Frontend From for Users and Guests to submit PGN Files? I can not find anything like that. How do i do this?
]]>When I try to import PGN I get the result:

1. Nh3 1-0
Somehow the ” at the end of each tag is lost. Must be [Event “Hoch-70, 6th comm”] [Date “2016”]
How to correct it?
]]>Hello, I would like to help you with the translations (I already did something for german). I would like to apply to be a validator for german (I want to be active here too), portuguese (Brazil) and serbian.
Also: How can I use this Plugin in a manner, that certain Tags or Categories are always shown on certain sites? Currently I use [chessgame_shizzle_simple_list] but this is showing all the games.
Also: How can I make the board fit on a mobile device and how can I display the notations on the board?
Thanks for your good work and merry christmas ??
