Could maybe the video navigation be improved? I'm fairly new to this but I've clicked on some that I found interesting and it starts with something like "Welcome to part five of our series..." or "In the last video we discussed... so now we can..." with no easy way to navigate those mentioned videos or other parts of the series, at least I couldn't find one. There are two videos by the same content creator, but it's not shown which the first part is, if it's even among the two. Clicking one more from author leads to a 404 error. Clicking on videos on the right leads to the generic video page unrelated to the current one It would be great to have a sidebar with all chapters if a video is part of a series or to have the videos link lead you to grouped videos of that series. Best way to do it currently seems to be to go to the creator's profile and find the parts by date.

I'm currently trying to make an own opening book with the analysis board and the notation of the variation can start to get messy fast. It's not only hard to see where the next move is but where the notation of the line actually diverges. Could there maybe be some visual aid. - The mail line is quite clear, the second as well, but after that it's all just in ever more and more brackets. A tree like structure would be a lot more helpful - A graphical visualization on the board. For example if the first move is e4, and then there are variations like e5, d5, c5, b6, g6, Nf3, Nc3 as (sensible) possible replies for black. Let's say half of them are in the study. Could all the moves noted in the analysis notation be marked by dots on the board, with the main line having a bigger one, the second a smaller one and the rest an even smaller one. Then one could see at a glance what moves you looked at. - Unrelated, but an undo function would be nice. Sometimes I move the wrong piece by accident or realize it doesn't make sense and create an unwanted variation. But with the continuous text structure of the notation it's hard to see what's what and deleting something part of the main line could delete hundreds of variations with no way to bring it back, unless you save the pgn before deleting anything

It would be great if the Self Analysis editor supported some level of undo. Given the edit choices: Delete Entire Variation, and Clear All Analysis being the most worthy candidates. However an undo stack would be even better supporting multiple sequential undo s.

BUG- When I logged in into chess.com I had got 17 notifications... when I kept the mouse pointer on the Chess.com thing it said 'No Alerts'? After some time I logged on into chess.com then I saw only one comment then it showed 6 notifications.

in four player chess, when you invite a beatable computer, it says it is a "comfuter" and not a computer

The behavior change when starting Analysis Report now does not initiate the analysis but require an additional action. Initially it presents the score with a view Analysis button It should not require this, but just initiate the analysis. On the upside, I'm happy not to see the Example graph.

The report analysis is not showing the Time section

The picture for both these "Thank You" trophies are identical, except for the colours being introverted from one another. Also, the wording is very similar and almost somewhat redundant. I would suggest the pictures be changed so they are both unique and possible change the wording slightly so it's less of an overlap of one another. Also, @sougataghosh pointed out to me that there is also a second set of trophies (I'm Sorry) that have a similar situation.

I don't know if this is a big deal or not but in a lot of bullet games under 30 sec, i rely on premove for the first 5-10 moves to get a few seconds ahead. It seems that premove can be bad, but in ten second games, all you really have to do is avoid a check. you can do premove to castle kingside and set up defense, all before your opponent can get set up. If you have any thoughts on this, please comment, because i am perplexed as to what premove can do to help and hurt you. (to turn on premove, go to settings and click "enable premove." premove works by clicking on a square to move to BEFORE your opponent moves. you can have multiple premoves set up) 😮 Reasons for and against premove

Mouse hovering is bringing up what appears to be the object name, I think it's supposed to be information about the control

In both of these Daily Chess games, my opponent ran out time but I had to click "Claim Win" for it to count. I have always had it set to automatically claim the win, and it's always worked until now. Game 1 Game 2

I would like some clarification regarding how to get this achievement? I know recently some people have had a difficult time with this. Not sure if there was a problem and if so, if it has been fixed? In the past I tried to "save" a game analysis, but the save button was just solid and didn't do anything when I clicked it. I tried doing this again today and the save button doesn't appear to be there. Maybe I went to the wrong screen or something, not sure? I have also referenced the two forum posts below, but still unclear about it.

So, when i got my NM title they upped my rapid rating to 2000 and my bullet rating was higher than 2000 so it didn't get changed. As I understand it they up all of my ratings to 2000 if it is below. Instead of that they missed a 0 and made my blitz rating 200! I've already reported a bug but idk wt to do.

In daily games you can play stuff out on the second board and save your variations. Usually you can try different whatifs and play moves for both and save it. On certain games it's not saved even if you click on save. The save button is always orange as opposed to it being grey until you make a move when it does work. The games where it doesn't work are from a tournament. Is saving of your own analysis not allowed in those for some reason? If it is, the save button should stay grey all the time. Sometimes there is even the red asterisk thing on the second board that indicates that it has been edited, but no variations have been saved.

Would it be possible to get analysis by Lc0 and/or have Lc0 in the Live Chess Computers? It would be especially cool if we could compare Lc0 and SF analysis side-by-side. Obviously I don't know if the logistics of this with Lc0 being a GPU engine are possible, but I think it would be cool.

What are the conditions for member games to be added to the database. What prompted my question is I played a relatively new member, joined may 7 2019, who had played 168 blitz games after my game. I analyzed our game and then decided to explore her/his live games. The explorer had no white games and only 2 black games out of the 168. The games included were my may 21 game, which was analyzed, and a may 14 game, also analyzed. Another analyzed game was not included nor any of the other 165 games. When do member games get added the the game explorer?

Remove removed alerts, or at the very least when you look at them, disable them!

In Daily Chess, the "Conditional Moves" feature sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. When it works, an asterisk will appear on the icon showing that some moves have been programmed. But other times, I set the conditional moves, exit out of the "Conditional Moves" screen, and no asterisk. Sure enough, when my opponent makes the expected move, my conditional move is not executed; instead, I'm notified that it's my turn to move. I've also reported this problem through the "Report a Bug" function; but I haven't received any confirmation that the issue has been acknowledged or is being addressed. Thank you!

So the ask to keep records of all players signed up for a specific match. Both daily and live. Currently, once the match start, all players with no opponent are removed as well as any record of them been signed up. This makes the job of an admin very difficult and tedious on various fronts: 1) Awarding prizes based on participation. The few times we tried to reward participation we had to take screenshots, which is inconvenient and does not provide perfect information either. 2) Proving minimum participation thresholds were met. When one team is below threshold the other must prove to be above the line. Currently there is no choice but screenshots. 3) Tracking for récords, keeping stats, measuring the teams true strength, etc. Thank you
