Installation & setup
H5P.com is a paid SaaS solution which, among other features, provides LTI integration with existing publishing systems. Interested to try out H5P in some of the publishing systems such as Canvas, Brightspace, Blackboard or any other system that supports LTI? Sign up for a completely free 30 days trial.
Free, self hosted integration If you want to use a free, self hosted version of H5P, you need to have Drupal, Wordpress or Moodle. These again require PHP. H5P will also be ported to other languages in the near future. (There is no PHP or SQL code in the H5P content types.) Make sure you have configured PHP before installing H5P. To make your site supports H5P, you need to install a plugin.
When you download the plugin it does not contain any content types itself. Therefore, after installing the H5P plugin on these platforms, you have to install the content types you need.
To get started on creating H5P content, take a look at our Content Author Guide.

Still nothing....
Hi icc
Still having issues. I've now removed and reinstalled the plugin to no avail. When attempting to connect to Hub it fails with same message. At one point I received this error {"success":false,"message":"Site could not be registered with the hub. Please contact your site administrator.","errorCode":"SITE_REGISTRATION_FAILED"}. Still getting the same error with Uncaught (in promise).
When I did reinstall and activate, I got this warning:
The plugin generated 151 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin.
Nothing in the error logs that I can find yet, I'll keep digging.
Any help greatly appreciated!

OK, for some reason your server isn't able to communicate with h5p.org. You can try to print the error message manually by editing the following file: wp-content/plugins/h5p/public/class-h5p-wordpress.php
Around line 893 you should see the following code:
Change it so that it looks like this:
This should print any communication error.
If the error isn't printed on the page you may have to open the browser's console and look there. I may be under the network tab, marked in red – probably one of the last requests.

I've attached a screenshot of how the network tab should look.
After clicking the network tab, click the filter labeled 'XHR' – this should strip away some of the media requests and such. Then click on the first request and check the 'Response' tab for it. It should look similar to the screenshot – no error message. Try the others until you find the one with the error – there shouldn't be many.

No, you should not need that.
No, you should not need that. Are you by any chance running Windows on your server? If so, it seems this is a common problem with one of the underlying components in WordPress/PHP. Here's a fix I found: https://github.com/auth0/auth0-PHP#troubleshoot
And here's a similar issue discussed: https://github.com/symfony/symfony-installer/issues/268
If you aren't running Windows on the server, have you set up HTTPS for your site? H5P.org has a valid certificate so the self-signed one has to be something that comes in between your WordPress and H5P.org – which is a bit strange.

Moodle installation cannot communicate with the hub.
Hello-
I am running into difficulties with the installation. I was able to install the module through Moodle.org's site. However, I receive the "Site could not be registered with the hub. Please contact your site administrator." error in the libraries menu, and "Couldn't communicate with the H5P Hub. Please try again later" when attempting to add an activity in a course.
I have not encountered a process where I "register" my site with the Hub. Is that a potential issue?
Any assistance you can provide is appreciated. Thank you

Hi,it seems like something is
Hi,
it seems like something is wrong with your server setup.
First of all, please make sure that you have all the php extensions and settings listed in https://h5p.org/installation/configure-php properly configured.
Then check your browser console for any errors, check the request that is failing when trying to communicate with H5P, should be available in the network tab of your browser and finally search your PHP error log for any stack trace of the error you are getting when this happens.
When this is done we can help you further.
The error you're receiving is usually resulting from your server not being able to communicate and download data from H5P.org API, it needs to be able to talk to the API to get content types for your site.

Good question. It doesn't
Good question. It doesn't have to, but creating an H5P plugin for your site that is able to do everything H5P does will probably take a few hundred hours of work. (H5P is an authoring tool, a packagemanager and a lot more so there is a lot going on behind the scenes. We don't have an export to pure HTML yet either, but you can of course embed from an H5P enabled site.

Hi Bilal!
This site is rather for testing purposes, that's why we limit the upload size of videos to 16MB, and that's why we cannot give any guarantees for bandwith, etc. Videos will be hosted on servers provided by DigitalOcean. You can, however, store videos somewhere else and use a direct link to the video files within H5P, too. Or you use YouTube as many people do.
Best,

Hi!
I'm not sure what your intention is exactly, but if you want to use H5P without a host/framework, you could check out H5P-standalone that was developed by Tunapanda.
If you just want to embed content from this site: Just create it here and click on "embed" on the action bar below your content. It will give you the HTML code necessary to embed the interaction into other websites using an iframe.
Best,
