Hello,

is it possible to go back to old version of chess.com?

Thanks in advance!

There is a link in the menu or you can use chess.com/switch (until v2 goes away).

On my Android phone, clicking on go back to old site throws up an access violation page. I feel violated ...

Just refresh and the violation will go away happy.png

Happens to me too bunny rabbit.

Go to Google

Enter "chess com switch" on search

Click on the link.

And you will be back on V.2

You will not be violated. Promise:)

Has worked for me. You should get a red message banner asking if you really want to switch with a link to do it.

 

If nothing else works, clearing your cookies from the site will.

When I tried what lofina suggested I got the red banner but it didn't switch :-(. I'm stuck with incognito mode I guess ...

On the 3rd try, lofina's suggestion worked! Yippee. Out of incognito mode. Finally I can be someone again. Maybe I could be a contender ...

another question is why do i get kicked into v3 after every tactics trainer or mentor session?

Avatar of Martin_Stahl

That is a strange one. Hadn't heard of that before.

On the iphone app, one can click on the username of someone in a message, and there you are in V2. 

I like V2 much better.

Try the app instead. But, not sure why you should have problems starting games.

 Unfortunately the new version 3 is most inconvenient from all aspects.  It requires unnecessary navigation.  Before everything was visible and accessible on one page with only a click to make a move, challenge, chat , see rating ,wins and loses.  Why complicate a system that worked well.  Please bring back V2 as an alternative as soon as possible. Thanks. Jurate

There was a great alternative. Used to be named V2.

But it worked, so of course, Chess.com killed it.

So,now we can't find v.2 anymore??? V3 sucks and is making me think about leaving this page after 3-4 years in.Bring back v.2

 Only old people like v2. v3 is better in every way.
