There is a bug in this preset where diagonal moves are highlighted for black's pawns, although they aren't accepted if you try to play them.

I tried the following sequence of moves and didn't detect that problem:

1. P g3-g5 
1... p f8-f7 
2. P g5-f7 
2... p e9-f7

I also tested en passant with this series of moves and again found no problem:

1. P g3-g5 
1... n g9-i6 
2. P g5-g6 
2... p h8-h6 
3. P g6-h7 
3... p f8-f7 
4. B f3-i6 // - Check! -
4... b f9-h8 
5. N g2-i3 
5... p f7-f6 
6. P e4-e6 
6... p f6-e5

So give me a position or series of moves leading to a position where you encounter the problem you described.
