Chessgame Shizzle
Chessgame Shizzle is a nice way to integrate chessgames into your WordPress website. Ideal for chess clubs, your chess blog, or any chess related website. Editors and guests alike can add chessgames in PGN format through a frontend form. All chessgames are available in a custom post type as a single post with an archive list and taxonomies, it couldn’t be more simple. Included widgets give you many ways to display your chessgames.

Translations
Translations can be added very easily through GlotPress. You can start translating strings there for your locale. They need to be validated though, so if there’s no validator yet, and you want to apply for being validator, please post it on the support forum. I will make a request on make/polyglots to have you added as validator for this plugin/locale.
