move the king 2 squares to the side (1 sq = kingmove, move rook = rookmove)
How does one castle on chess.com?
Sort:
Two squares, huh? D1 to F1? I guess I was moving from D1 to G1 hence my problem (and no, I wasn't under check.) Thank you very much, ElKitch!

Drag the king 2 places toward the rook. The system will auto swap their positions as long as neither piece has been moved already in that game,
that the king is not in check or passes through check and that there are no pieces between the king and rook. The system should then automatically swaps their positions (castling)
This diag shows you king side and queenside castling
Thank you very much for taking the time to show me. I checked, it worked and all is well. Thanks again.
yeah but what if you wanted to move the king the same place but not castle. How does it know? Or is that a thing?

How the heck do I castle when playing live chess on www.chess.com? Typically on other games you move your king to the square immediately next to either rook and viola! Not here! What am I doing wrong? Thankee.
