Hey, 

I was wondering what the difference is betwee using the Wordpress plugin vs. creating on the site and embedding into my wordpress site?

Thanks!

Hi elihardiehowes,

Using the plugin provides you more flexibility such as maximum file size, capturing user results, you have control over who can view your contents among others. Also please take note that the site is for testing purposes only and is not meant to be used to host 'real' content.

Thank you. For 'real' content do you recommend using H5P.com or creating content on the wordpress plugin? Also, would embedding vs. hosting quizzes through the plugin improve site load times?

Hi elihardiehowes,

I'll let you decide:

H5P.com takes care of hosting your contents and logs the scores. You also get 24/5 support thorugh e-mail while using the plugin support is community driven through this forum. You can read more about this here.

Please note that you can sign up for a free trial by going to H5P.com.

For the other question I.m not really sure but waht I'm sure is if you embed a content you will not be able to retrieve any scores.
