You need to be a diamond member in order to make any of the fancy moves, really.

Also it may help to do it immediately after the advance of the opposing pawn. *mumbles something about overly rigid, fascist rules*
what's a diamond member

See the symbols by some peoples names, gold, diamond, platinum, etc.
OTOH, Chess.com allows all of the legal moves to all levels of players, just to make sure the jokes don't confuse newcomers. Read the rules of chess for en-passant to make sure you know how to do it correctly.

If chess.com didn't allow en passant, that means en passant was not a legal move at this moment.

@stdavid, can you be more specific. I don't know of a way to use the Chess.com computers to analyze a game in progress. Can you specify how you are able to do this. Hopefully if there is a bug in the code the chess.com people can fix it.

Yes. En passant rule was removed from chess in 1979.

#17 I thought it was 1982 that en passant was removed. The 1979 ruling was merely an amendment.

Only people paying for membership can use the en passant rule.
En passant is a legal move and all legal moves can be done without premium membership.
En passant has never been removed and never will.
