Is it correct that when you go into Forums - My Private Forums the only blue button at the top is "Public Forums". No search or any other option? It just seems a little odd.

Game 1737196

For some reason I cannot navigate through the game using the forward button. I have to click through manually. But I can use the other three buttons. 😕

I have tried to change the board style, both the size of the board and the chess set. But both seem to have no effect on the board style...

You can't choose the board size and chess set in the beta version.

Because this is just a beta test not all the options are available...when it actually happens for real it will be available; as well as some new designs and the removal of some of the bad sets (I believe).

Do you mean the forward arrow? it works fine for me in that game that you linked to. Of course, when you first click the link it shows the last position, so the forward button won't do anything at that point.

I wonder if it would be possible to only display the forward and fast forward buttons when not in the last position?

Oops, I totally misunderstood this first, thinking you wanted to drop the other buttons when not in the last position... But dropping the forward and fast forward buttons when in the last position, and dropping the back buttons when in the first position would make sense.

Edit: By the way, no problem with the forward button here either, neither in Freddie's game nor in my own.

Funny, it works fine now. Probably just the browser.

Hmm. I just included a less than character as part of a game name for an open invite (actually the first character in the name). Now none of the name shows up.

It would be nice if the less than character was specifically exlcuded (by mention of valid characters or by a check) or the less than character were silently dropped but the rest of the name remained.

The same goes when I type something in the message box to my opponent like: < aiko > text < /aiko >. This is readable to my opponent, but in my log (and up here) it only says 'text'.

I doubt this has anything to do with the beta version. It has always (or at least for a long time) been like that in the forums - if you post a < followed by a number, both the < and everything you have typed after that won't be shown in the post.

On my iMac with a tft monitor I am really having a hard time when I want to make a move, distinguishing the green / greyish squares that indicate the previous position of my opponents move, and all the grey squares.

Would be nice if they would be as dark as the green / greyish squares that pop up when I move one of my own pieces.

Again, apologies with the lack of updates since release, I should be finding time to catch up today.
