In order for it to be mate in one, it seems to require a double check like N-d3+ and mate.
You could try N-C6 + but that allows Rd1-d6, stopping the one moveness thing.
N-g6 double check allows K-f5 hidey hole.

But what puzzle thingy are you talking about?

Hmm...I can add puzzles, it seems. (Evil grin)

Hi Sonhouse,

If you click on the bar under the puzzle it takes you to the 'Puzzle Page'
a brand new feature. You can leave comments etc...

if you use the Reply and Quote option you will see:

[uzzleid]33[/puzzleid] (I've removed the first 'p' in puzzle so you can see it.)

change the 33 to any other number you get a new puzzle.

Here is number 44.

White to move, mate in 2

Best one I've seen so far.

This is an excellent feature!!
I'm rubbish at the moment but I hope to improve.
Mate's in 13 moves and above?
Can people really see this far in advance or is it progressive thinking?

The new puzzles feature can be reached at the 'community' link at the top of the page.

Actually N-g6 is deemed to be correct while N-d3 isn't. i commented to that effect on the puzzle.

This one involves a promotion, but when one promotes the pawn nothing seems to happen, it didn't tell me I was wrong and it didn't put up the widget showing I'd solved it: Spoiler - the solution I tried was:Reveal Hidden Content
