Hello so recently i messaged support and kindly mike helped out my support request was asking if soemone from the dev team can make me a simmilar site to chess.com but not for chess but instread for my own thing called theliveforumwix under the url of 0suspensions.com and i wanted it to contain some simmilar things cc has. Clubs: users can make their own staff can verify tag clubs each club has the same features except the match making that coords and admins can do. forums in general : the same kind clubs forums and normal forums: Blogs: the blogs are the same on the site people can write blogs at no cost streaming is removed games are removed chat is the same both user chat and club chats the top bloggers are the same staff are the same and mods too ( meaning same things they do) reports are there but MODS can also handle them puzzles are removed  articals are removed  Support bot from intercom is there chess rankings top players chess today chess tv is removed awards are the same  the entire play section is not there settings are the same  memberships are removed all flairs are the same and made free  stats are changed to only show freinds numbers when you joined how manny followers and your activity  entire puzzle section is removed all aspects of palying is removed  freinds are the same  account mutes and closures are the same  all things under the binoculars are removed as well as under the graduation hat the three dots are the same but the page is empty of diffrnt links and can be edited by site staff. the point in this is i need someone who will be willing to help me make such a site because get this im not a master at coding (nor do i have money to find someone to do it)

Is it possible to get chess.com custom puzzles in bulk? I only need 300 puzzles as a png.

Like en passant achievement, for mating someone via en passant

Add more bots and put mittens back in the bot list do you agree?

As the title states, I am noticing that the pub player monthly archives endpoint is not updating in real time. This has never been an issue in the past - as soon as say Hikaru finishes a game I am able to see the game he has played at this endpoint: https://api.chess.com/pub/player/hikaru/games/2025/04 Now unfortunately it looks like there is a delay. I am noticing this during the Freestyle Friday event that is happening right now but have seen it happen earlier this week as well. I am wondering if it is a bug that will eventually be corrected or if I can no longer depend on this endpoint showing games immediately after they finish. Has anyone else noticed this or has inside info on what is going on?Thanks!

Does puzzle api endpoint always contain an "answer"? I noticed some of responses contain moves end with * and got confused whether the goal of the puzzle is not a win in those cases?

I recently built chess-mcp, an open-source MCP server for Chess.com's Published Data API. It allows users to access player stats, game records, and more without authentication. Features: Fetch player profiles, stats, and games. Search games by date or player. Explore clubs and titled players. Docker support for easy setup. This project combines my love for chess (reignited after The Queen’s Gambit) and tech. Contributions are welcome—check it out and let me know your thoughts! 👉 GitHub Repo Would love feedback or ideas for new features!

Im not a dev but my rating highs still show the same one from november ??  I used to be 1849 Now 1917 ?\ Halp!

Please, how do I get the API for master games? I would really appreciate any input here. Thanks

Hi, On the player API endpoint (https://api.chess.com/pub/player/{username}) the player_id seems to be a number, but on the game archive API endpoint (https://api.chess.com/pub/player/{username}/games/{YYYY}/{MM}) there is a uuid field, but it is a uid and doesn't correspond to the player_id. Is there any way of reconciling these, or do I just need to use the username (which presumably can change)? Thanks! Neil

is it because he blocked me 

Just brought to my attention in a league I help run... https://www.chess.com/club/matches/obsessive-chess-disorder/1678137/games See board #6 - both game points awarded to @Jose_Kagaoan because the account @Jezzabythesea was closed (unspecified). Usually this is only for FPV but the odd thing is, there's no symbol to indicate that. I hoped it was only a webpage glitch but looking at the endpoint... https://api.chess.com/pub/match/1678137 ... the status of @Jezzabythesea is shown as:  "status": "premium" However, look at the player endpoint & it shows: "status": "closed:fair_play_violations" https://api.chess.com/pub/player/jezzabythesea Up until now match endpoints have been sufficiently reliable to be able to compile results & decide wins for tournaments that participating teams can place faith in but this is really troubling. I hope it's a one-off?
