I don't understand this version of the preset, but maybe I'm missing something. How are promoted pieces to be shown? I don't see them represented in the preset's piece set.

The button "Minishogi" points to the link of "an older settings file that did not enforce rules" - is it supposed to point to a newer settings file that does enforce rules instead? The only difference seems to be in the "settings" url parameter, for all the rest the page seems identical.

I just clicked on the minishogi button, and it does go to a settings file that enforces the rules. Although the name of the settings file may be the only difference you see on the page, that one difference can make a major difference, because it points to an external file that contains the rule enforcing code.

When I click the button, it also displays the old graphics and the message that rules are not enforced; however, when I enter the URL directly or click on Move, it brings up the new rules-enforcing settings.  Another weird cache effect?

There was a problem with the form on this page. The form action had a query string in it, and the value for settings in the query string did not match the value in the input field. I deleted the query string, and I changed the value for settings in the input field to "default".
