Yeah that's where it normally is and the plugin is targeting that corner. You actually have a target there, but your template has it hidden. You can either unhide it or wait for a version upgrade that allows for targeting a unique spot for the button. How would I got about unhiding it?

You need to edit the template and find that line where its set to display:none

probably why the theme had that hidden - so it could have a skinnier title bar. its just temp until I can push out a revision that looks for a button target. I have to be careful with this code because its maxed out on number of lines so adding too much will actually kill it.

Wormo, I know the chess plug in is full, but maybe you could use the companion. When someone starts a game with you, is there a way to decline from playing that person? Right now I think if you don't move, you are stuck with that notification in the nav bar.
I have a person that starts games then makes a coupe of moves, then lets it sit for weeks on end without moving even though he will be on. Now he is doing it at another site.
I have this person blocked from sending pm's or starting new ones, but I was wondering if I block notifications from that person would that make it so I won't have that chess notification from them? It would be nice if there were a way to decline right from the start.

well even if you decline from the start, the game would still exist because the person that started it is the one that creates the thread. you cant delete someone else's thread.
so if you refuse a challenge, what should it say in the post instead of a game? should it be considered a forfeit?
also, with the newest version of companion, if the admin clicks on the stats box in a game they can edit notifications for that person. you could therefore delete the notification for the the person and then delete the thread completely.

Not at someone else's site I can't. No, I think that is why the person doesn't move for 3 weeks, they are hoping others will forfeit. Why should people take a loss just because some jerk won't move for weeks on end? I don't suppose there is a way to make it, if the starter of the thread doesn't move in a certain amount of time, they automatically forfeit?

"automatic" is one of those words that confuses everyone. remember that things are never truly automatic around plugins. everything still requires user interaction. it would still have to bring up a button that told that player they are required to forfeit in order to push anything to the key.
I dont disagree with you on the person who starts a game and doesnt play. one of the reasons I put the part in there for admin to adjust totals if it came to it. I will look into a "this person aint playin anymore" button.. but I cant promise anything yet. space is limited.

I totally understand about the limited space and its unfortunate that just a few people can take the fun out of such a great plug in. I just hate for people to have to take a loss by forfeiting when they are the ones waiting on someone else. Thanks for looking into it.

Castle when? You moved the king to capture the knight. Once you move the king, you can no longer castle. If you move a rook, you can no longer castle with it either. You also can't move THROUGH a check during castling

I wasnt being sarcastic. I wasnt sure when you were attempting to castle in the game you linked to. you moved 1 rook, so I assumed it wasnt king side. then you moved the king a few moves later so I wasnt sure if there was a window you were attempting in.
castling rules: king cannot be in check king cannot end up IN check after castling king cannot move through the 1 or 2 spaces on the way to the rook that would also result in a check (that one was harder to code in) the rook the king wants to castle with cannot have ever moved the king cannot have ever moved

fun fact: I barely knew all the rules of chess before I wrote the plugin. I had to learn them all while I was writing it. and based on the number of edits, I didnt get them all right on the first try either.

something was added recently to PB core software. you can drag files onto the window and have it add files to new posts. Im trying to find out how to turn that off.
