On a local Wordpress server, installation required of H5P via FTP

Installation and server related problems

Hi everybody,

I installed a local Wordpress website with XAMPP on a Mac.

When tried to install H5P plugin, Wordpress asks me FTP credentials and I don't know how to do.

Tried to put H5P folders directly from GitHub to -Plugins folder in my local installation but it doesn't work and Wordpress notificates me with a generic error message.

How can I install H5P plugin(s)?

Hi!

WordPress asking for FTP credentials when installing plugins is not a problem with H5P, but with wrong settings. Please see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17922644/wordpress-asking-for-my-ftp-credentials-to-install-plugins for instance.

Cheers,
Oliver
