How to post Chess Positions (FENs) & YouTube videos!

Post by Enrico L. Carrisco »

HOW TO POST A CHESS POSITION/DIAGRAM (FEN):

There is a FEN button located between the 'URL' and 'YouTube' buttons in the posting view.

It will function the same as the other BBCode buttons: Click once to open the FEN tag, add your text (FEN position) and then click the button again to close your tag.

..then the corresponding chess position / diagram will appear:

[fen]2kr1n1r/1pq1p1bp/p2pp3/5P1R/2n1P1P1/2N1B3/PPPQB3/2KR4[/fen]

Happy 'FEN'ing... :lol:



YouTube Video Posting:


Just use the "YouTube" button before and after your YouTube link.

Enjoy! :D
