Import/Export across accounts/platforms

It would be really great if there was a way to import/export H5P content across H5P accounts and from this H5P website into wordpress.

I had a different H5P account to my colleague and she could not access/edit content I had created without my login details. I could not add her as an editor, or copy across the content into her account. We also wanted to take some of the content we had made and put it in Wordpress so it was saved on a different server, but could not move it over without recreating it from scratch.

You should be able to move H5Ps both between two accounts on H5P.org and from H5P.org to another H5P enabled site (e.g. WordPress). Generally, H5P provides an export/import function via the download button found below each H5P. When this button is clicked, the H5P with all it's content is downloaded as a file to your local machine. To import it, select upload when creating a new H5P. Additionally, on H5P.org, there is a clone content button above each H5P. This may be used by other authors to clone the H5P, and then edit it further.

Thank you!!

Hi,

I've got an additional question to this post. I'm using h5p.org and I would like to migrate some of my content to another account. I have been making things for a customer before and I am now transferring the responsibility for this content to another person. As I have more content in my account than only the content for that customer, I would like to transfer all of that specific customers content to his account on h5p. How do I do this? 

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi ChantalDrieam,

To migrate contents from another account you can use the download function of the contents and upload the .h5p file to another account.

Thanks for the answer, but: there is no download function in the .org version right?

Hi ChantalDrieam,

There is a download button (screenshot attached) unless you disabled it when you where creating the content. In this case you just need to edit the content and enable it.

Unless I misunderstand something i have to 

- create the content

- set download to downloadable

- publish the content

- download the content

- edit the post to switch off download again, republish.

 

Wouldn't it be easier to just add a download option to the h5p content overview as well as an import there?

(also please add the output of the shortcode into the edit section - one needs to press update to get to it)

I've read the above, and am wondering where to find "upload" if I have an H5P shared with another user?

I guess you are using h5p.org, and here upload is disabled. I'm sorry I wasn't clear about that. If you have an own site (WordPress, Drupal or Moodle) with H5P enabled, you will see the upload option. On h5p.org, you will have to click the clone content button to copy an existing H5P.

 

I am trying to clone content from one of my accounts to another. When I am logged into the original account I can see the clone button for all my content, but as soon as I go to this content, logged in to my new account, the clone button is gone.

Hi poelk,

The clone button is only available to the "author" account. Having said this it is still possible to "clone" the content by using the download button at the bottom of the content and uploading it using your new account.

I need to make a copy of H5P content (projects) to upload to another WordPress site. Is there a way to do this through cPanel?

Hi, our charity has previously created an h5p account but we no longer have access to those account details. We'd like to copy the h5p content created with that account into a new live site. Can you let me know how I can access the previous account? Thanks

Hi RCVS Knowledge,

You need to either have the e-mail address so that you can reset the password if you don't know it or the URLs of the content so that you can download them (provided that download is enabled).

Hi BV,

As an example, there is content I'd like to download at https://oncourse.rcvsk.org/courses/clinical-audit/quizzes/clinical-audit-quiz/ 

How would I access the content from that page, assuming download is enabled? Thanks very much.

Hi BV,

For example, one of the content items I want to download is at https://oncourse.rcvsk.org/courses/clinical-audit/quizzes/clinical-audit-quiz/ - how would I access the content from that page? Thanks very much.

Hi BV - 

I'm not sure my previous message went through - I have an example URL for a page I want to download content from. How would I do this? Thanks.

Hi RCVS Knowledge,

Sorry you had to post this several times, to make sure that spam does not get through all posts needs to be approve by one of the site admins.

Anyway I was able to access one of the content here. I initially assumed that the contents are hosted here in H5P.org. The only way that you can retrieve these contents is to edit them and enable the download button.

Hi, I'd like to download all the H5P content I have created. How can I do this in bulk form? I have a lot of content, so this takes a lot of time if I have to download them one by one. Thanks.

Hi Yasemin Fırat,

I wisht there was another way but currently downloading and uploading one by one is the only way to export/import your contents.
