Disable DRAG Options

We really need a feature to disable DRAG options only, you know how many misclicks we do due to wrong drags? Come on, this feature is too simple to not have, this is pathetic.

This feature already exists.

Unless you're talking about mobile (which I haven't looked into). For mobile, misclicks are always going to be much higher regardless of drag or "click".

As I posted above, there is an option for "Click Squares"; this disables the drag option.

It does not though, and that is a feature, not a bug.

Drag or click gives you drag or click.
Drag pieces gives you drag 
Click squares gives you drag or click. I kid you not.

Please give us " a feature to disable DRAG options"

Thank you for clarifying. I just tried it myself and confirmed that the "Click Squares" works the same as "Drag and Click".

This is absolutely stupid.

Agreed - Click Squares still allowed drag, and it caused me to lose a game due to misclick

If you're using just click move how did you mis-move? You would need to click-hold, drag, and release for the drag option to impact the move.

I accidentally dragged to the wrong square instead of clicking

I don't know why this feature still not here. this drag was really annoying when played in mobile. I'm just getting slower because i had to pay attention to the pieces. i don't know why, my click feature not working

Just lost a game I was winning 100%. I just had to move my Rook to the file to prevent opponent promoting a Queen. Somehow the stupid mouse thought I want to drag the Rook only one box to the right when I wanted to click the rook and move it all the way to the right. So the opponent promoted the pawn to a Queen and is probably still laughing.
This is pathetic. Lichess has this option. I like playing here because of the Analyze Game function. PLEASE ADD THIS OPTION.

Adding in my two cents: I had an opponent blunder their queen. Positioned it next to my pawn. I picked my pawn up, moved it over the queen, Chess.com showed the queen in the circle as under attack, and proceeded to place the pawn... in the open space next to the queen, instead of taking it.

Imagine my surprise and disgust when, to resolve this issue, I change the option to click only... and still could drag my pieces.

And they want me to pay for the website??
