It's Christmas or what ? ;)
Really great news ! Interactive Book is simply the best H5P "agregator" for the other H5P activities : it keeps them very neatly organized.
It seems that you have added many content types that were not there before (I was using the alpha version) : Dialog Cards, Essay, Slider, Question set - thanks for this one ! - and some others.
On the other hand, I've tested the Interactive Book here on H5P.org and I have noticed that the H5P audio content (called "Audio") is missing in the list of content : is it gone ? I use it quite extensively in the Interactive books that I make because they are audio books for my students where they can read the texts that we are studying, but also listen to their audio version (it helps those who are a bit behind when it comes to reading). I hope that it is not gone forever. Or is it ?...
Anyway, thanks again for releasing this content type : you made my day !

Hi Isabelle,I'm glad you
Hi Isabelle,
I'm glad you liked Interactive Book so far (there are still a lot in store).
Audio will not be removed it is not enabled in H5P.org this is why it will not show in the list of activities that you can create. Don't worry it will still be included in the actual release :-)

Save content state with Interactive Book
Hello,
This is a great activity, thanks for the work!
It's great because you can do very large activities but it looks like the save content state does not work with interactive book. In activities composed of many different exercises, it's important that the learners can come back to where they left the activity, otherwise, all the work done disappears as they retry the page (or ar logged off). Is there a setting in the behavioral settings that allows this? I can't see any.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Nuria,
Interactive Book does not support "save content state" yet, however it is part of the plan to include this but I do not have a timeline yet.
