Dev Update

A little update.

The web site is receiving all the attention for the time being - a significant refactoring process underway which keeps pushing everything in right direction.

Nearly every page will be revisited in some form, so the UI will be slightly different about the site.

I understand that change is not always appreciated (at least initially, anyway), so it should not result in a dramatically different UI.

Anyway, if you have any UI issues/suggestions - now is a great time to propose them!

* A beta / preview will definitely be available anyway to thrash out any issues. Timing for this is unclear right now.

There has been some discussion about providing a more visible link to the settings section, which is currently just a few threads down below this thread. You might want to just take a look at it and see what you think.

On a game page, maybe make the "Skip game for now" button take effect for about 20 or 30 minutes per game, so that skipped games don't keep coming up in the rotation after one has already skipped them?

One could of course always revisit them through the "My Games" button/list.

Please display board coordinates when inserting a board or game from FEN or PGN into a post. Thx.

The Games Explorer is a great feature that I use a lot to see what openings a new opponent likes to use. Perhaps the Master Class database can be expanded … How often does the RHP players database get updated? TY

This will happen. Apologies for the delays on this, as this has been promised before, but the whole feature will benefit from the work currently in progress.
