Hi everybody,

This week MDL-67063 has landed, so a new 'h5plib' plugintype has been created. Every new plugin of this 'h5plib' plugintype will contain a H5P libraries version handler. 'h5plib_v124' has been already created. To manage different versions, a new 'H5P settings' administration page has been created and a new 'H5P framework handler' setting has been added to let admins define handler version to use. 

Every time the H5P team releases a new H5P libraries version, a new 'h5pli'b plugin should be created and released into the Moodle plugins database, to let admins upgrade and use them.


Next week we will continue working on H5P epic (MDL-67425), but from home for a while. Following the Spanish government advice due to COVID19, Moodle HQ office in Barcelona has been closed, and all Spanish team would be working from home for at least a couple of weeks. Let's hope the virus is under control and the spreading risk is mitigated soon all over the world.   

Hot topic:

  • MDL-67337: 'Display H5P' filter's behavior has changed. It would be applied also inside <a> link tags.

Warm thanks

To the Integration Team for working so hard even during the most stressful weeks; for their day to day help and key role in Moodle improvement.
