pgn = - Mandatory parameter, containing the pgn or the algebraic notation of the game. In-notation comments are not supported. If original pgn contains comments, they should be removed for the template to work correctly. PGN headers are allowed, for convenience, but ignored by the template, except when parameter display notation is set to "yes", in which case the tags will be shown as part of the notation.
Series of move = parameters, determining which positions will be displayed, using the {{Chess diagram}} template. The value of this parameter will be passed to the diagram as "footer". Each move is in the form of <number>l or <number>d, for position after white move or after black move, e.g.
12l = position after 12. Nxg6 : white captures with Knight
12d = position after 12... fxg6: black captures Knight with pawn
An alternative way to display positions, showing a series of consecutive positions, is:
from1 =
to1 =
comments1 = {text} {text} {text} ...
and optionally
from2 =
to2 =
comments2 = {text} {text} {text}...
etc. (i.e., from3/to3/comments3, from4/to4/comments4 and so on)
Where "from1" is the first position to display, and "to1" is the last, (again, using "17l" or "13d" notation), and "comments1" is the series of footer text, each enclosed in { ... }, to be displayed as footer to each position in the series. If the number of comments do not match the number of positions between from and to, the excess comments will be ignored, or the excess positions will be displayed with no footer text.
Multiple series of positions can be requested, using "from2/to2/comments2" and so on.
Note that requesting the same position multiple times, i.e., requesting it both as individual position and as part of a series, or using 2 series with some overlap, will result in displaying the same position more than once.
Regardless of the order and method the positions were requested, they will be displayed in the game's order - 12d always before 13l.
display notation = optional parameter, tells the template to display the parameter passed as "pgn", below the diagrams.
