Chess Tempo Widgets


Chess Tempo widgets allow you to embed Chess Tempo functionality directly into your own web pages, and at the same time, help promote Chess Tempo to your site visitors.


Chess Tempo Widgets are licensed under a Creative Commons License. You are able to use the widget for free on your non-commercial web site on the condition that you place a visible link to https://chesstempo.com on the page(s) where you are using the widget. In most cases, this link is included in the sample widget HTML provided.


Daily Puzzle Widget


The daily puzzle widget allows you to place a chess board on your own web page that shows a different chess puzzle each day of the year. Each day has three puzzles of increasing difficulty.


Puzzles are taken from existing Chess Tempo tactic problems and are selected based on their quality ratings. Problems with alternative winning lines are not included in the daily selections (i.e. all problems should have only one solution, so the solver is not prompted to 'try again' on alternative winning lines, as they should not exist).
