@Russ

From my profile, clicking Forum Posts used to launch a search of my own posts, defaulting to the user as logged in. Now, the search assumes no default user and I have to type in my username to get a search result. Is this intended? Furthermore, typing the first three letters of the username brings up a menu listing all users with the same initial letters, but clicking on any entry does not 'post' the username to the search field. That's looks like a bug (FYI: Safari Version 17.4.1 (17618.1.15.111.8, 17618)).

Russ, can you please put the logged-in username into the search engine by default? I'm so lazy ...



This appears to have been sorted. THX.

When using analyze on the previous version, all of the pieces that were removed from the board would show up underneath the history of moves when you scrolled to the bottom of that page.

That feature is no longer available in the update. It forces the player to memorize calculations instead of seeing the visual results of your potential plans.

Is it possible to restore a method of seeing which pieces have been removed somewhere within the analyze mode?

Not sure if its been mentioned, but what happened to the thread list within each forum?
This has now returned, similar to before.

The other new options remain too.

Rating Trend Expanded doesn't seem to work for me.

Thanks. This is a known issue, but bumped down the priority list.

By early next week this should receive some attention.

This is a small thing, but whenever a piece was captured on the old version, an image would show up either above or below the submit move button identifying the removed piece. That no longer occurs with the update.

Why was this visual aid removed? Can it be restored or has it been deemed unnecessary?

Hello, seems that the game type "open invites" is not available in the game list.

Don't know if this has come up yet, but when you're doing a Conditional move action, how do you get back to your board. There's only
a Board sign after you've gone out the loong way...

Are you using the "All" folder? The game is then probably archived in the archive folder already.

This was not actually available on the previous version, but for no good reason, so now added.

Under the site logo is a "back" chevron.

This will return you to the game.

This is used throughout the site now, not necessarily to take you back a page like the browser history, but back to the most logical place. (The game board, in this case.)

If I moved it already it shouldn't be in the All part. But its there, and I want to clear up the clutter of completed games.
And no chevron visible either.

Ok, I found your "chevron" , its a back sign. But the main problem
is still the Archive action which does not work.
