Problems with making my first puzzle

Sort:
archaja

Hi. Tried to make my first chess-puzzle. But now I´m stucking in the mud.

At the explanation it is said that after I started to create a position there will be some tabs on the right. But there aren´t. Have a look:

These tabs should include Bord editor-game details-design-preview

Some are there (design) but not cklickable. Hm, something I do wrong, it´s clear. I made the position with the analysis tool and then copied the pgn. Maybe that is not the right way. Have no Idea.

The explanation is found here:

thanks for help!

Once you import a position, you can't edit it but you can make moves. The ability to make it a puzzle is on the Designs tab.

Thank you. But it seems that I´m a bit stupid with this thing. Now I created the position instead of importing an pgn but still there are still no tabs on the right or elsewere, nothing to set begin or end or something. Have another look:

And I think if I use the "insert" button, I have it on the forum already, without being a puzzle. Oh, now I understand, THAT is the meaning of puzzle! You have to puzzle yourself through these task.... wink.png

Out there are hundreds of chess puzzles.... and nobody is able to tell me what I do wrong? Unbelievable!

There is a puzzle checkbox in the “Theme” tab.

I can see from the screenshot in post #3 that you have not scrolled down far enough. Then you will see the “Moves”, “Details”, and “Theme” tabs.

Hi! Now it worked! Had to read the instruction very carefully to find the right place. It is in the german version not under "theme" or something similiar as a word, but under "Design", so I didn´t find it first. But your help was very much appreciated! Thank you!
