Didn't notes used to be saved without needing to explicity click Save? I think notes should be automatically saved when you make your move.
I also think that Notes could perhaps be made more prominent. I'm sometimes finding that I'm not noticing I have made notes on a game. This can be disastrous with a memory like mine, especially when the note says something like "Watch out for checkmate on d7"
I quite like the redesign, although I would prefer an option for the old board behaviour ( i.e. disable drag and drop) since the drag and drop is a little awkward on my phone which is where I make the majority of my moves. I can manage with it ok, it just takes a little longer.

When I first saw the new layout I was not impressed and remain so. However I am slowly getting used to it. I have two problems that are really annoying me at the moment.
1. The sort by doesn't stay as I set it and I have to remember to set it every time I log on.
2. How do I know if some one has offered a draw? Why cant the status show my move, waiting or draw offered like it used to?
I really dont want to moan or complain I am sure there were good reasons for the update, but I cannot name one of them.
After the first week I am slowly getting used to the new site and I am now quite liking it
I also have problems with the " Sort By " ,in that it reverts to " Newest games "
I like having it on the " Least time remaining " but it seems to link the time bank to the time out and I would like it to be time out only,it also puts all the games I am waiting for my opponent to move above the games where it is my move
Could this be resolved ?

Only a couple of minor complaints from me. In analyze mode, after accidental selecting the wrong piece, you used to be able to click on the same square to reset it. This now no longer works. Also there no longer seems to be a "send an email reminder" button on the game page.

Nagging emails are the best way to get me to ignore your game, so Yippee if they are harder to send.

Originally posted by CaptainPRight now, it is only available on the alternative views on "My Games" ( "Expanded" and "Gallery" ). This will be reviewed once things have settled down - including a full consultation on the UI update and where to go in the future.
What happened to Reminders?

If this is not the case, then I will update later, some others have reported the same thing but it has not yet been investigated. (I'm getting to it...)

Might you have a list of implementation issues that you may be willing to share on this forum.
It might cut down on duplicate reporting.
Thanks....
Originally posted by Divot FarmerThis will work for you now. It was fine for many people, but where an unsupported set had been selected on the main site, a blank board was shown.
Anyone else having problems with the the iPhone app? None of the pieces are showing on my game boards, just the highlighted squares of the last move.

You may need to set your preference one last time, but it will now be retained between sessions.

Could you now fix the least time remaining it appears that the time bank and the time out are linked and the order is haphazard
