An overview of Chess Publishing methods has been published before, but this overview didn't include the ChessFlash PGN viewer of one of the previous posts.
In addition some of the previously discussed Chess Publishing methods just disappeared, which emphasizes the importance of one of the original requirements that it should not be dependent on another site.

Now let's first concentrate on the ChessFlash PGN viewer.

• It offers a chess board that shows the position after each move
• The moves are also shown
• Clicking on a move shows the position on the board after this move
• It doesn't offer autoplay
• Variations in the moves are possible
• It can deal with comments, but the comment at the start of a variation seems to be shown as belonging at the end of the previous move
• There is a kind of puzzle mode, but this doesn't show the moves after the right answer is given
• It is based on entering PGN
• I think that it is not necessary to copy and paste all kind of code. The Quick Publisher can be seen as an additional nice tool. The original requirement "Without the need to copy and paste all kind of code" is probably met
• It seems to depend on another site, but it will also be possible to host the player on your own site and a site like Google sites will do. However it will not be possible to limit ourselves to the Blogspot/Picasa combination.
• It loads rather slow, especially when you publish more chess games on the same page like you may frequently do on a blog-site). This can partly be solved by means of a show/hide wrapper, but I don't like to hide the content of my posts
• A separate PGN viewer is loaded for each chess game.
• It doesn't really feel integrated and the moves are always shown at the right side or below the board, but not around the chess board.
• The height and width is configurable, but the scrollbar at the right side remains.

This blog started as a search for a good chess publishing method for Blogspot and other sites and now seems to end up as the home of a new chess publishing method, called the Blogspot Chess Game Viewer.
This method meets all original requirements, but now I know that I even have more wishes, so I am going to continue the development of this viewer. However I am still interested in alternative methods, because the main goal is still to find the ultimate chess publishing method. Earlier I have written this overview of Chess Publishing methods.

The main drawback of the first version of the Blogspot Chess Game Viewer was probably the use of the coded moves. In the latest versions these coded moves aren't necessary anymore and the coded moves are generated by the JavaScript itself, but at the moment there are still some known limitations with this coded moves generation.
In addition there is a (large) wishlist for new functionality, but I invite you to add more wishes in the comments on this post.

Google is no longer accepting new sign-ups for Page Creator because they have shifted their focus to Google Sites
Google sites offers many of the capabilities of Page Creator, but seems to miss storage of HTML and JavaScript files.
This means that one of the most interesting ways to publish chess games (as used in the post about some of the traps in the Sicilian Defence) had disappeared, though you may use another (free) site for your JavaScript files.

Maybe I have to learn how to write a chess viewer gadget, but since the original problem with the LT-PGN-Viewer had been fixed you may also use the LT-PGN-Viewer as demonstrated in this post about this PGN viewer.

I suppose that my search for a way to publish chess games on a blogspot site has been successful as you can see in the previous posts. The mission has been (at least partly) accomplished.

Now the solution meets the following requirements:

• A chess board that shows the position after each move
• The moves are shown
• Clicking on a move shows the position on the board after this move
• Autoplay
• It should be able to add variations
• Comments between the moves are possible
• Based on entering PGN-like moves
• Without the need to copy and paste all kind of code
• And not depending on the site of another person or company.

• A possibility to hide the moves (= solution) for puzzles
• Everything integrated within a single blogspot template

I am currently looking for a way to publish chess games on this blog.
There are some tools that may be helpful, but at the moment I haven't found a way that enables all my wishes.
Probably other chess bloggers are also facing this difficulty of posting Chess games on their blog.

My wish list:

• A chess board that shows the position after each move
• The moves also have to be shown
• Clicking on a move shows the position on the board after this move
• Autoplay
• Variations in the moves have to be possible
• Comments between the moves
• A possibility to hide the moves (= solution) for puzzles
• Based on entering PGN
• Without the need to copy and paste all kind of code
• And only depending on my own blog site

I probably even have more wishes and will let you know if something has been found that almost fulfills my needs.
