H5P Guides
Content author guide
In the content author guide the most important things you will learn are:
- How to install a H5P content type and create and edit H5P content
- How to use many of the existing H5P content types
- How import and export works
- How multilingual content is handled
H5P provides an ever growing number of content types. Think of them as templates for creating content. To use a content type you only need access to a web site where H5P has been installed and a modern web browser.
You can also test drive H5P right here on h5p.org.
H5P has been designed to let everyone create, share and reuse interactive content. Learn more about creating H5P content:

how to see content of a .h5p file
hi,
is there a way to see what the .h5p file's content is, if it is given by somebody? would we need instance of wordpress/drupal to see the contents?

Hi,
The .h5p file is in essence just an archive file structure in a specific manner, in order to view the content you can extract the .h5p file, or rename it to an archive extensions (.zip) and extract it.
If you're talking about seeing the actual H5P, you would have to upload the file to a wordpress/drupal/moodle server first.

Joining multiple content pages together to create a learning obj
Hi Luv the H5p moodle install. The content pages are straight forward to use and the integration is great, however I wanted to join multiple content pages to make a learning object and this does not seem possible? I have made an example of each content type but can't find a way to make them one h5p package to upload to moodle. Can this be done or do we ahve to have multiple H5ps or use the embed code into moodle quiz pages?
Cheers Scott

Joining multiple content pages together
Hi, a new content type called 'Column' is going to be available in the next release that will allow you to chain other content types together.
This will allow you to bundle a number of H5P content types together and export them in a single package.
You can choose to receive an email when the next release comes out by editing your profile on h5p.org.

Columns in the Moodle install
Hi Tim
I see columns is now out in the latest release. I install the latest moodle version but columns does not appear to be an option? Is this going to be an option in moodle or are we going to have to create online and embed?

Column and pagination
Thanks Tim
that did the trick nicely. Wondering if there is a way or if it is being developed so that pagination can occur for column. Then when creating a learning object they wouldn't all be on the same page.

Column and pagination
Hi Scott,
I'm glad that you got column installed!
Creating pagination for Column isn't something that the Core Team is planning to do any time soon but since everything is open source, it could easily be done if you had access to a developer/development resources. You could also create a post in the feature request forum and hope that someone from the community picks it up.
I hope that helps!

HP in Claroline Connect
L'intégration en embed d'un module H5P fonctionne parfaitement avec la plateforme Claroline Connect et se fait simplement de la même manière qu'une video Youtube dans cette plateforme.
Merci pour tout !

Canvas Instructure Installation
I really enjoyed using this. I am an instructor and a designer. I have two questions.
1. How can I make sure that if I invest time creating my interactivities for my courses that it will disappear on me in the year or so from now?
2. Can there be an integration with the Canvas LMS?

Hi salcos,It's good to hear
Hi salcos,
It's good to hear that you are enjoying using H5P.
1. I would assume that you are exclusively creating your contents in H5P.org. Having said that you don't need to worry, we do not routinely delete contents in the site. Furthermore there are measures in place to make sure that there are backups for all the data.
2. Several platforms that H5P currently does not support including Canvas, but that soon will be supported through H5P.com. H5P.com will also integrate third party software to offer support for large videos, math, analytics and storing results in the LMSs.
You can go to H5P.com to learn more and sign up for updates.

Hi Juan,I don't have any
Hi Juan,
I don't have any experience using Blackboard but if there is a way to insert rich text this is possible. All you need to do is to retrieve the embed code that H5P provides by clicking on the embed button at the bottom of the content. Once you have the code just insert it in the rich text area in Blackboard.
Concurrently several platforms that H5P currently does not support including Blackboard, but that soon will be supported through H5P.com. H5P.com will also integrate third party software to offer support for large videos, math, analytics and storing results in the LMSs.
You can go to H5P.com to learn more and sign up for updates.

Hi BeeYuen Yang,Yes and no.
Hi BeeYuen Yang,
Yes and no. No because Powerpoint is not a browser and does not understand html codes. Yes it is possible but you would have to install an add-in that let's Powerpoint use HTML codes (although I'm not sure which one is reliable). Once installed you can use the embed code built in to every content.
