It will be awesome if lichess adds a "Opening" filter to filter matches by a particular opening (ex: Sicilian Defense Accelerated Dragon)
For Example:
The opening may change based on the moves. You start with a Sicilian, you enter some gambit, the opening name is changed. Or worse, you get to the same position, but different move order and you get a different opening tag name.
You could try to download all the games, then use a local tool to search for the exact position you want. If you install my browser extension LiChess Tools, you have a PGN Editor feature that searches PGN patterns and even FEN positions. It works in the browser, though, so if the PGN is larger than a few tens of megabytes it might fail due to browser limitations.
Yeah the openings can change but I'm referring to already finished games In an already finished game lichess must know what opening was played and if so then display the name of the opening accordingly and provide the functionality to search in an already finished game
"Browser limitations"? What kind of "Browser limitations"?
" Or worse, you get to the same position, but different move order and you get a different opening tag name"
What?
We already have a far better tool, the opening explorer: https://lichess.org/analysis#opening/eternitydark
