Content creation

I am having two sites with different target users but many of the content that I developed using H5P can be shared, What is the proper way that I copy one to the other site? Thanks

Hi alexpui,

The only way to do this is to use the "reuse" button to download the H5P and upload it on the other site. You cannot use the cop/paste option for this purpose because it was designed to only be copy/pasted within the same site for security purposes.

thank you very much for your help, can you show me an example where the "reuse" button is located?

Hi Alexpui,

Below are 2 test contents that have the "reuse" button enabled.

Hi alexpui,

There are 2 places you need to check. First is to check if the settings of a specific content has these options disabled. You can see this on the right side under display options (screenshot attched). If the options are not available you might have changed the global setting to change it back go to settings->H5P you should see there the "Allow download" and "Display embed button" global settings (screenshot attached).

thanks again, as I am the owner of both sites, I found it is safer to export the h5p tables and media uploads from one site and to import it to the other, so far the testing seems to be working fine, any side effect if you know? Thanks again.

Hi alexpui,

There are no side effects that comes into mind but you know computers they are full of surprises :-)
