Usually when I play a puzzle, I like to try and finish the game against the computer. But now when I am in analysis of the puzzle, the Practice Against Computer button is greyed out.

Please fix asap

you click Analyse, then usually you can click Practice with Computer:

I have the same issue.

Same issue. Not just on puzzles but also just reviewing my games. For practice I sometimes like to play out the rest of the game when my opponent resigns.

It was there after I just did a puzzle using the website.

The icon looks like a target.

I just did a puzzle and it was there. However, if you review one of your games and go a few moves in and hit the analysis button, you use to be able to play out the game from that position by hitting the "practice vs computer" button but now it's grayed out per the attached image.

Now it's working.

Avatar of WarthogChess

not working still. greyed out. please fix. its annoying, and no reason to grey out. just a bug.

Avatar of needs_more_dog

Now it's not working for me again. This is insanity.

If the Analysis option is off when the page loads, the practice icon isn't available. Toggle that on and it will work.

I have asked if that is by design or a bug.

I have the same issue. I like to finish off games where my opponent resigns or runs out of time. The button is greyed out - most of the time! Sometimes it's not. Weird.

Fix it please

Just found what to do: Turn on the Analysis checkbox and the option becomes available.

Avatar of mcguigan97

Oh My God that worked!
Not sure why the box was sometimes checked and sometimes not, that's weird.
But thank you!

Avatar of WarthogChess

its obviously a bug that the Practice Against Computer icon depends on ticking this little analysis switch. The two are not related, well, shouldnt be. Please fix??? its an extra click for no reason.

And thanks dmitry981 for finding the work around in the meantime!
