My Chess BlogTrialling jspgnviewer WordPress plugin to display games
Posted on July 1st, 2010 by Richard
I have been trying over the last few days to install jspgnviewer by Toomas Romer as an alternative chess pgn game viewer for my blog. It has been a bit awkward as it does not install as simply other WordPress plugins. It is not too complicated though-it seems to need the pgnviewer directory moved up a level (ie to be put in the plugins folder along with jspgnviewer-0.6.7 folder). So I hope this will work!
This is a game of mine from a nice training chess software program I have recently found called ‘Lucas Chess’
Unfortunately the board images are not displaying!
I am now going to try cvd plugin (chess viewer deluxe)!
I have had quite some trouble with pgn viewer plugins. This one is embed chessboard IFrame:
That hasn’t worked either!
I need to sort out the best pgn viewer for my blog……

Did you find a good chess plugin – I’m looking as well
Hi PaulC
The best IMHO so far is Paulo Casaschi’s “Embed Chessboard”
Adrian Hanft’s chess viewer is also good (though I’m not sure it is WP3 compatible-but it maybe by now-check it first!).
Thanks and gl
