Board editor doesnt allow el passant.

Hi. I don't know how I could create a board where en passant is a solution for the position I've made? Any suggestion?

@hador1995 I think you are placing the pawns in such places where en-passant is illegal

It must be that case when according to Retrograde Analysis the position can't be reached legally whole adhering to the FIDE rules.

Share the link to the particular position you are talking about.

Hi.
Example was taken from L.Polgar "Chess - 5334 Problems, Combinations, and Games" - 306.

I've put en-passant into link and it's work. But you cannot do it using board editor.

@hador1995 You cannot do it through board editor. You have to do it on analysis board.

Wait. Did you mean 'doing en passant on board editor' as 'playing the moves on the board' just like we do on analysis board. If yes, then it is not the thing to be done on board editor. Board editor is used to set up a position and not literally playing on it. Similarly, promotion doesn't work according to your doing en passant on board editor.
