Localisation
Like many other MediaWiki extensions, ChessBrowser's user interface messages can be translated at translatewiki.

A particular issue to look out for when localising ChessBrowser is the numbering of ranks and files (chessboard rows and columns). Many world languages use European numbers (1–8) for ranks Latin letters (a–h) for files, but some languages use other numerals or letters. If your language uses different characters, translate the extension with optional messages enabled. Please don't translate numbers or letters if they are the same in your language.
