The shortcode for the upload form can be placed in a page. When visiting that page, you can upload a pgn through a frontend form. The fields for that should be mostly self-explanatory. * On the admin dashboard you can also upload a pgn game. Go to Dashboard > Chessgames > New Chessgame. Then there should be a metabox where you can paste the pgn in a textarea, together with other input fields. It could be that the metabox is not visible. In that case you can click on “Screen options” on the top right and make the metabox visible (at least with the classic editor). * If you still cannot manage, can you tell where it goes wrong? * Thread Starter [alexich1960](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexich1960/) * (@alexich1960) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-working-code-with-pgn-note-using-your-shortcode/#post-15155427) * Hi Marcel, Thanx for responce, * look at 2 options. link [https://disk.yandex.ru/i/GWRKchWCCP1mJw](https://disk.yandex.ru/i/GWRKchWCCP1mJw) * First. I’m putting shortcode & pgn code into your plug-in form: New Chessgame. And as you can see the diagramm in the window right corner shows the final position of this game. SPLENDID! But… Nothing discovered on the site page * Second. I’m putting shortcode & pgn code into the body of the tipical post. And we can see the title of this post, its movies. Without chessboard. Where I mare a mistake. Everything works, but only half` * Plugin Author [Marcel Pol](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mpol/) * (@mpol) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-working-code-with-pgn-note-using-your-shortcode/#post-15161260) * Hi, ah there are some misunderstandings 🙂 * That shortcode is meant for visitors to send in a chessgame. The most usual place for that shortcode is a page, which you can put in the main menu for example. Example: [https://svpegasus.nl/algemeen/partij-inzenden/](https://svpegasus.nl/algemeen/partij-inzenden/) * Games will be uploaded/added as the posttype cs_chessgame, at Dashboard > Chessgames. * To show a list of chessgames, there is another shortcode for a simple list, that is also meant to be in a page. Example: [https://svpegasus.nl/algemeen/partijen/](https://svpegasus.nl/algemeen/partijen/) * If you want something else, which is fine, like standard posts with a chessgame as part of the content, you could look into this plugin: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/embed-chessboard/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/embed-chessboard/) It is made by the author of the game viewer. My plugin is mostly aimed at showing a list of chessgames, and also to offer some chessgame widgets. * Thread Starter [alexich1960](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexich1960/) * (@alexich1960) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-working-code-with-pgn-note-using-your-shortcode/#post-15165527) * Marcel, thanx a lot for your time and tips. Course, I know embed-chessboard plug-in. But its not so visually impressive as yours. * Plugin Author [Marcel Pol](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mpol/) * (@mpol) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-working-code-with-pgn-note-using-your-shortcode/#post-15165884) * Thank you. * Embed Chessboard does have options that this plugin doesn’t have though. I do know websites that use both plugins, they don’t have conflicts as far as I know.
