Chess PGN Viewer for mybb


Hi,

Just want to ask if anyone is making a PGN viewer for mybb, I really want this plugin.

I found a site for a pgn viewer that is compatible with 3 other buleting board softwares, but, not mybb see the site below...

http://pgn4web.casaschi.net/demo.html

It may be possible to use turn that software into a mybb plugin? I am new to this so I could be totally wrong!

If someone would like to make this, I would be prepare to pay a fee to help out a bit, however, this would have to be inexpensive.

If anyone is already working on one or if there is one that I havent found please let me know.

Thanks,

Oliver

Post: #3

when you play chess, if you record the moves its is called notation. Often a player will use computers to analyse their games, the file that holds the notation is a PGN file.

These PGN files can be inputted straight into chess software for computers software like fritz, shredder and chessmaster to analyse. For human analyst on websites, blogs and such a PGN viewer is used the replay all the moves.

Here is an example how this works on another forum powered by vbulletin...
