Resetting Drag and Drop Pieces

Content creation

Hello,

I have been creating drag and drop activities for students in the classroom, but we are finding that if teachers are logged into the website (wordpress), it is saving their progress and keeping the drag and drop pieces in the drop zone, even if they refresh the page. So if a student wants to complete the activity again (or another student wants to do it), there's no way to "reset" the pieces so they can drag and drop again.

Is there a way to add a "retry" button to a drag and drop slide so that the pieces reset to where they were? Or some other solution?

Thanks!

Hi mathgeekmama,

Disabling the save content state in the H5P settings would resolve the issue. Please note that by doing this the feature is disabled for all contents. Another way to resolve this is have the students use their own logins or change your setup where in even if not logged in you can interact with the content. The save content state feature does not work for anonymous users.

Thank you so much BV, the content is protected by a paid membership, so we can't share it unless they are logged in (and although students do have their own login, they still want to do the activities more than once). But disabling the save content state resolves it. Thanks!
