Re: Tactics: Databases and random order

Hi, how are you ? :) There are some tactic databases in the pgn folder which comes with the zip. A tactic database is basically just a pgn with games like [setup "1"] [eventdate "1998.??.??"] [castle "1"] [index "134"] [ts "1487794126811"] [event " White to move."] [site "?"] [date "1998.??.??"] [ro...

Re: A few suggestions

Navid, Thanks for the good ideas. To add some intelligence to the Tactics would be nice. == Timed Puzzles == I like the idea of solving as many puzzles as you can within a given timeframe. The idea is not so difficult to implement, but do you have any suggestions on how to handle elo for this? ==Ana...

Re: Multiple db in one page

I have looked at this now, and it was a bug. I have fixed it and uploaded a new version(1.0.99) with the fix. It should be available shortly from your Wordpress admin plugins page. I have also sent you an email with a download link in case you need it ASAP. You then have to remove the plugin(you wil...

Re: A few suggestions

Thanks Navid, I'm using the ELO formula today but with double points for the first 8 puzzles you try to solve. Elo per database is interesting. A few months back, I considered elo per game. I've made an automatic parser using StockfishJS(part of the DHTML Chess software), and thought about setting e...

Re: Tactic rating

Navid, Thanks for your message. I have taken a look at this today and released a new version (1.0.98) That said, I have not been able to reproduce the problem where you lose rating points if you solve a puzzle. That seems very strange. This is how the rated tactics for logged on users works: * I'm u...

Re: A few suggestions

Skramble, I apologise that this has taken some time to implement. A new hint button has now been enabled. It will play the solution for you and you will lose half the points as you normally would if you didn't solve the puzzle. I have also made some changes to how many points you lose when you try t...

Re: Not showing all pgns correctly

The problem with PGNS like this should now have been resolved.

There were two issues:

1) It didn't handle comments with multiple hard linebreaks(newlines) very well
2) It didn't handle comments at the beginning of variations, example: 1. e4 ({comment before first variation move} 1. d4)

Re: Not showing all pgns correctly

I have started looking at this.

It's a complicated PGN with a combination of sub variations and comments. The PGN parser in DHTML Chess have a hard time parsing it. I will get some free time this upcoming weekend to look more at this.
