Image Hotspot Accessibility – buttons now include proper alt text to meet accessibility standards.

CKEditor 5 Long Text Focus Fix – resolved an issue in Chrome where editing long text caused focus loss and scrolling to the top.

Word Cloud Accessibility – input fields now announce the header and description when accessed with a screen reader.

Agamotto Hyperlink Fix – hyperlinks now direct users to the correct sites as expected.

Wiris Formula Stability – fixed a bug in Course Presentation that sometimes displayed random characters.

Canvas SpeedGrader – improved error messaging when attempting to view a deleted report.

Drill-down Reports – corrected an issue where the number of deleted attempts did not display accurately.

We’re committed to making H5P even more inclusive and user-friendly. A huge thank you to our open-source community for your reports and contributions – you help drive these improvements forward.

New Updates Released

Alongside fixes, we’re thrilled to share some major new features now available in H5P:

New Sharing Widget – share your interactive content more smoothly across platforms.

Expanded LMS Connections – Sakai and Open edX are now selectable in the LMS connections list on H5P.com, making these integrations more visible for new users. This furthers our goal of making H5P.com a standard integration across major LMSs.
