Content creation

I have been using h5p for few weeks with mainly "dialog card" type. But today the dialog card type disappeared and with only limited 7 content types available.

Do I need to pay to use? Please help. Or any settings are needed to be setup?

I am looking for using Speak a word and other contents.

Hi edctedlui,

To provide a best possible experience for new users and to ensure that people use H5P.org only for trying out H5P (we've had more traffic than our server can handle lately, ref also the warnings when you create content, embed content and view the content) we are experimenting with which content types should be available here.

Check the getting started page for information on how you can use all the content types and use H5P for real. We unfortunately are not able to provide free hosting, only free software :) Hopefully you'll consider supporting the H5P Core Team by using H5P.com.

Hello BV52, 

In your answer to "edctedlui", does that mean that only those seven options are available? I was about to post a very similar question here:

  •  I have a basic account and when I try to create a "Quiz (Question set)" that option is not available any more, is that right? I have used it in the past but now it has dissapeared. I only have 8 options to choose from to create a task/activity.

 

  • Also, what is the difference between a basic-free account and the, for example,"Author based license"? 

Thank you,

Hi Hugo,

If you are referring to your account here in H5P.org yes the contents you can create are limited. In terms of the number it changes depending on what major updates are released. A few weeks ago there are a lot of content types available since Interactive Book just came out of Alpha and now is in Beta version. It helped the core team weed out some bugs that came out of the update.

The author based license for H5P.com provides access to almost all content types except those that have major accessibility issues that needs to be fixed. It also includes the hosting service, larger upload limit, scoring and a lot more.

In the 30 day trial I can not choose Find multiple hotspots en many other activities. Do the lacking activities only become available after purchasing a licence?

Kind regards, Henk-Jan

Hi Henk-Jan,

Some contents are not enabled by default in H5P.com. To enable them you need to go to Manage Organization -> Settings -> Content type settings. 

There are also some content types that are not available at all in H5P.com. Below is the list and the reasons why:
