I feel like certain things (especially in the More section) should be moved to another category.

#1: Play Category

Vote Chess: basically Daily Games but with a team. You're still playing Chess, so it should be under Play.

Daily Chess: Not even sure why this was removed in the 1st place, should be added back to Play.

#2: Puzzles Category

Solo Chess: You are solving a puzzle to get from a set amount of pieces to only 1 piece on the board, should be added (not sure if it was under Puzzles previously) under Puzzles.

#3: Learn Category

Explorer: You are learning positions and how often they are played. Again, unsure why it was moved to More, but should be added back under Learn.

Vision: You are learning to remember what certain moves mean on the board, or what coordinate is on a specific spot on the board. Should be added under Learn.

I think it's very important that Daily be moved back, because I think that as it is a LOT fewer people will play it (at least this might become the case over time).

Daily isn't in More. It's part of Play.

I think the site is going towards using Play for all games. Plus when it's your turn in Daily they show up under the play icon now so it wasn't really removed. 

 

My only suggestion is bring back the home icon in place of the chess icon and I only say that because it's a design standard for many sites.

can be a personalized menu? just for default what is default and then if i want i dońt know, chess tv to be in okay iḿ allow to move it there.

Yes, but only if you've already started a daily game. It might be hard for new players to even find daily

Sorry, that's my fault; I miscommunicated. I'm trying to say that like "live," "daily" should be an option when you hover your cursor over "play."
It's possible I'm overreacting, but I just thought I'd put it out there and let you guys decide whether it's an issue

I think live is only there because it's still in the process of being replaced by play. I think eventually the goal is to have the play option.

 

You can start a daily game by simply changing the time control in play or hitting play a friend.

The Live Chess option in the menu is going to be retired. I don't know how much longer it has but probably not very. The intent is everything will be in Play and players will just chose a Daily time control when creating seeks if they want to start a new Daily game.

Ahhhh, my bad again. I get "live" and "play" confused and that didn't occur to me. OK, thanks for the clarification! happy.png

I just think it's been taking longer than expected and the dialog isn't updated.

retired means not available?
