Trouble posting a game for analysis

Sort:

I've been trying to post up my first game for analysis and have been struggling with a few things.

1. Every time I import a fen string or pgn file it gives me a static position instead of the whole game, despite the fact that I chose the game option after clicking the little chess icon. 

2. When I hit submit, the page refreshes and I lose the game that I inserted!

3. As a result of #2 I have to reinsert every move of my game and make new notes for it all over again. Is there a way to save just an analysis so that I can have it for myself and simply reinsert it if this happens again?

Three times now I have input the whole game, move by move, and made notes, only to have it disappear when I hit submit. Please help! It's taking up a ton of my time!

Thanks,

Mal

A FEN will always give a static position, I think.

Go to your game, and download the PGN.

Open the PGN file in a text editor (notepad)

Click on the chessboard icon.

Select "Game or sequence of moves" and click continue

Select "use a pgn file"

Go to your text editor, and select the entire text (CTRL A does this)

Copy this text to the clipboard (CTRL C does this)

Go back to the chess position window, and click in the white box below PGN

Paste the game (CTRL V does this)

Click Continue. Your game should now be there, with all the moves, you can add comment etc. When you are ready, click submit
