How do you post the diagrams in which the pieces move automatically as you click on the written moves? Thank you.

Support topic and very helpful post by Paolo here:

Maybe a video or screengrab sequence showing step-by-step how to do this may help? Once you have worked it out, it becomes easy. My big moment of inspiration was realising how useful the 'click b8 to get position FEN' option is on the PGN display program Paolo wrote. That enables you to stick diagrams into an analysis.

Site performance in this particular area seems to be improved as well.

You are referring to the pgn4web javascript plug-in?

(I'm asking because I'm still not entirely sure how that works, but it is very impressive)

No, I am referring to the forum and it's performance listed and monitored here:

I do agree the replay facility created by Paolo is an impressive piece of work we can only thank him for.
