dealing with updates

Content creation

Hello, I just wanted to know how updates work, when H5P activities (in a course presetnation) were created befoer the update happened. For example, there's an update in the Mark the Words (in the course presentation). Scoring is such that a point is deducted when the learner makes a wrong choice, and a point added for each right choice. This is confusing to the learner, who may select 4 out of 5 items correctly, yet get a score of 3/5. With the update, you can now (in behaviour settings) elect to "show score points" for each answer (which is good). Is there a way of getting this update into an H5P course presetnation (wth a Mark the Words in it) that we made prior to the update, or would we have to recreate it from scratch?

thanks!

Hi akaskens,

I'll answer your last question first, you don't have to recreate the content :-)

Once you update the library you have to update the content type cache (screenshot from Moodle attached). You can find this in the settings of H5P a similar option/button is available in Drupal and Wordpress.

Perfect - I'm so glad we won't have to recreate. I've asked our Moodle administrator to update the cache - thank you!!

PS - One thing I tried was uploading the old H5P course presententation (without the update) to my H5P account, to se if the update would automatically be applied to the old H5P on my H5P account/site, but it did not have the update in it. Is there an update button on my H5P account? thanks once again.

Hi akaskens,

Can you please share the URL of the content that you uploaded in H5P.org so that we check it.
