Just got around to upgrading from 1.2 to 1.4 and wanted to try out the Open URL feature to follow games on GameKnot. Unfortunately, GameKnot URLs for downloading PGN don't end in ".pgn" and HIARCS seems to insist on this (the OK button is inactive if the URL doesn't end in ".pgn").
I would post a example URL from GameKnot but this forum won't let me post a URL. Needless to say, it doesn't end in ".pgn"
Am I missing something or is this unfortunate requirement baked into HIARCS?
Open URL requires URL ending in ".pgn"?

Be patient you can post a url in post number 2. Stopping them in the 1st post stops 90% of spam botsPawnDog wrote:Just got around to upgrading from 1.2 to 1.4 and wanted to try out the Open URL feature to follow games on GameKnot.
