Hi,

Thanks for all the work on H5P so far.

I'm interested to know the impact of a failure of the hub to contact H5P.org to verify type version etc... at launch , does a failure still allow content to be edit/created with already installed types?

Essentially I want to know if the hub is dependant on a successful connection to H5P.org. I can see form the code (see image) a "Network Error" option, how prevaent is this message and whats the impact?

Thanks,

Alex

Hi Alex,

The H5P plugin needs to communicate with the server for you to create/edit the contents. Although there havev been some discussions regarding having H5P available to use offline. Here is an example the request is to have H5P available to use offline which is similar to your question.
