Roadmap
A list of features, additions or bug fixes that are currently on the H5P Open Hub Roadmap. Each of the items below links to its own separate post where the H5P Open Hub Community can discuss the benefits of each proposal.
You can see items that are proposed, in the discovery phase, and those which are pending.
Below that is the changelog which lists all of the proposals from this roadmap that have been completed.
Upcoming
-
Publishing or Updating Complex H5P Content Can Lead to Duplicate Content
We have had reports that when creating or updating a H5P Content module, the content is getting duplicated. This seems to happen because the platform takes quite some time to process creating or updating a large, complex H5P module, and as such, can lead to confusion around whether the author pressed the publish or update…
-
Allow people to search for H5P Content created on the H5P Open Hub
Right now the H5P Open Hub isn’t particularly…open. Any content you create is only really available to you as an author and any potential support units for your faculty or department. We propose to create an open catalogue of content which would allow others to search for and view the H5P content our authors create.…
-
xAPI Integration
H5P Natively supports xAPI statements for most of its content types. Due to the way we expect the Open H5P Hub to operate – where content is created here on the hub, and is then embedded elsewhere, we will have to massage this native implementation to provide something useful for both learners and instructors whilst…
-
Add GeoQuiz Content Type
There is a H5P GeoQuiz Content Type available on Github which allows folks to “create geography quizzes”. This requires the H5P Editor Coordinate Selector also available on Github.

Ability to Create Unlisted Group
Currently, users self-report as a part of UBC Faculty based on UBC’s Faculty and Unit list. The idea is to come up with UI and back-end to enable ad-hoc groups that will behave in similar fashion to Faculty listing but not being publicly available. Update: This is now complete. See the group creation for editor…
-
Recovering Deleted H5P Content
The H5P WordPress integration does not support native-to-WordPress ideas such as content revisions or trash. This means that if you accidentally delete your H5P content, or intentionally delete it and then, at a later date, need to undelete it, then your only recourse is crossing your fingers that we have a backup and are able…
-
Kaltura Integration
Several H5P content types require you to either upload — or link to — a video. By default, H5P supports YouTube and Vimeo for streaming services and has a native video uploader. As the H5P Open Hub is not a video streaming platform we have disabled the ability to upload videos thus requiring you to…
-
Automatic default license selection
By default, H5P provides content creators a large array of licenses from to choose that they can apply to their h5p content. However H5P leaves this selection empty initially meaning all content is created without license. We would like to explore the ability to automatically select a license for every piece of content so that…
-
Add Mathematical Expressions Content Type
There is a Mathematical Expressions Content Type available from h5p.org. Consider adding this for users who have H5P content created before LaTeX was added to H5P. Bonus: Explore adding LaTeX to the H5P Open Hub so that this isn’t strictly necessary for future content creation. Update: This is now live on the platform! You can…
-
Allow H5P Content to be embedded when the embed button is not enabled
By default, in H5P, if you disable the ‘Embed’ button as part of the toolbar for your H5P Content, then you completely disable the ability to embed that piece of content anywhere – even you as the author of the content. There is a H5P_EMBED_URL_ALWAYS_AVAILABLE constant available within the H5P WordPress plugin which, when set,…
