Purpose
The purpose of this article is to provide information on linking an H5P module to a course using the Make a copy option
Note
Before continuing with this tutorial, please first read the pros and cons regarding the way you link your H5P modules to your course content. You can find our explanation of them in the article: H5P: Important Settings.
If you have decided to change your H5P activities to be copies of the Content bank modules, you will need to delete the file from the course activity and reconnect it again, selecting Make a copy of the file.
Procedures
First, open the H5P activity on your course page
Navigate to the Settings Tab
Click on the H5P File icon. Then choose the Delete button to remove it. Don’t click Save yet
Now, click to add the H5P module from the Content Bank again
After selecting the module you want, choose Make a copy of the file from the top of the selection menu
Click Select this file and then Save and display.
Your H5P module will now be saved to the H5P activity on the course page.
Note
Please remember that this activity will no longer be updated if you make a change to the module in the Content Bank, but the load time will be much faster even for content-heavy files. This will continue to be the case when the content is copied to a new course.
Please reach out to the Moodle Team if you have any questions!
