It turns out that H5P.org offers a WordPress plugin for H5P content, so I decided to give it a spin. The code is hosted on GitHub. So, as before, I wanted to put it to the test. I installed and enabled the H5P plugin. Then I uploaded the *.h5p file I created with the Lumi H5P Desktop Editor and grabbed the short code, which I’m embedding here:
I gotta say, it’s pretty nice. It’s easy to install and use. If you’re working in WordPress and need educational interactions, this might be the thing. The workflow is a little weird. It doesn’t take advantage of the modern WordPress block system–there’s an opportunity for some aspiring WordPress plugin developer. But it does allow you to upload *.h5p files or create them directly in the plugin’s own space, which it carves out for itself in the WordPress dashboard.
So far as I can tell, it offers no way to download *.h5p files of projects you create in WordPress.
Be sure to check out my previous article, in which I sing the praises of Lumi.education and their Lumi H5P Desktop Editor. I worked up this H5P “dialog cards” demo for that article.
