    The copy/paste only works with the untranslated German code. Oh No.

    I thought that the puzzle words are the ones behind the “:”. But there are 2 or more words in some clues.
    -Reizbarkeit, Sensitivit?t: Reaktion auf Stimuli von au?en; Informationsaustausch; Signale werden gesendet und empfangen

    -Wachstum und Entwicklung: DNA gesteuert; Kaulquappen zu Fr?schen, Raupen zu Schmetterlinge, …

    Sorry, I am not getting this very well.

    Thank you

    Okay…I am getting this finally. At least using this example puzzle to create others.

    How can I change the appearence of the puzzle?

    The appearance is to change in the appropriate css-file.

    Ah okay.
    I don’t really know how to do that, but I can figure it out.
    Thank you for responding.

    Thank you too for your comment.
    It is an old project of mine and I would not like to spend much time, but it should at least work.
    If changes in the css file does not work, it is usually because the attributes are inherited from the template. Therefore, I recommend for changes to introduce new ‘class’.

    Thank you for the tips.
    The plugin seems to work. I need your plugin for my ESL class. I volunteer teach English to non-English speakers. Your plugin is the only one of it’s type I have found in WP. And the variety of puzzles is excellent.

    I had better learn real CSS. I have only changed font attributes.

    Since it is JavaScript (I think) it should continue to work for a while?

    I can change “eintragen” in the style sheet too?

    (I studied German for 6 years – and I know none!)

    @toni

    I actually spent like 3 days translating the german css classes to english in addition to the php files and js. But that actually broke the plugin, so i switched it back. I am working on cleaning up the CSS as well. So if I finish it soon I’ll send it over to you. If you finish first, feel free to help me ??

    Great! To be honest, I don’t really know how to do it at all. It was going to be a learning project out of pure desperation. So let me know how it goes please!

    Cheers!

    The author tells you how to do it – gives the frame work on that page, code, tutorial, etc. in a zip file to download. There is a link to a sample puzzle – looks excellent!

    Giving It Away

    Almost three years ago I developed JavaScript Crossword Engine (https://www.softwaresecretweapons.com/jspwiki/gangoffoursoftwaredesignpatternsjavascriptcrossword). After hundreds of requests from many of the readers, I am finally releasing all of the source code to the community under LGPL. The source code and a short tutorial can be found in oy-cword-1.0.zip (https://www.softwaresecretweapons.com/jspwiki/articles/cword/oy-cword-1.0.zip). Enjoy!”

    Let me know what you think? I do not even know how to use/put JavaScript into WP. But I will check it out anyway.

    Cheers!
