Timeline Exception: Call to a member function get_content() on boolean

Bugs in content types

Hey there,

I tried to add my first H5P timeline to a course in Moodle. I set up two dates, images, captions, etc. H5P saved it w/o any error message and I can see the activity in my course. When I (or sb else) try to open it I get 'Exception - Call to a member function get_content() on boolean' error message. I deleted and re-created the activity with no luck.

Additionally on the page with the Exception I also have a js console error msg: ReferenceError: H5PIntegration is not defined @ h5p.js:987:7.

We have the latest Moodle (3.7.2+?) on Debian 3.16.39, Apache 2.4.25, php 7.1.30, PostgreSQL 9.6.13, with fresh H5P modules. All the other H5P modules (a lot) we use work perfectly.

Summary: 
Exception error when opening Timelime content type

When I re-open the timeline in the editor, everything looks fine: I can edit and save but I can't save and review changes - > Exception...

Error code: generalexceptionmessage

Hey guys,

It would be great to use this feature. Is there any chance to get a correction for this error?

Hi hellsing,

Would you mind providing sample content. I tried reproducing the issue on a similar setup but I am unable to do so.

Sorry but I can't. We are on intranet. Also I can't open the content for a view so I can't export it into an h5p file.

Is it possible to 'reset' a H5P module? When I installed H5P there were some modules hat had to be downloaded by clicking a 'Get it' button. Can I somehow set a module to that state?

It's so strange all the other modules work perfectly.

Hi hellsing,

I'm not really sure if it is possible in Moodle, but it sounds like a viable solution. I hope that someone else in the community has some suggestion.

Hello,

We have the same problem while creating an essay activity on Moodle version 3.9.7+. The following message shows up just after clicking on "Save" :

Exception : Call to a member function get_content() on bool
