Remix Manager for H5P vs Spots

Remix Manager for H5P empowers your users to manage their own H5P content directly from the front end of your WordPress site. No admin access required at any point. Users can: View their personal H5P content library Remix (duplicate) any of their existing H5P content with one click, including complex content types like Arithmetic Quiz and Course Presentation Edit H5P items from their library Delete items they no longer want, including full cleanup of all associated files and data Perform bulk actions for remixing or deleting Search by title and filter by content type Sort by any column and paginate through large libraries Administrators can: Control which user roles have access to the front-end H5P library, including custom roles like Teacher or Instructor Set granular permissions for remixing and deleting per role Limit how many H5P items each role may store in their personal library Configure where the View and Edit links send users, the WordPress admin, a front-end editor page, or any custom URL with dynamic tokens Bringing the H5P Editor to the Front End Remix Manager for H5P does not include a front-end H5P editor, but it is designed to work seamlessly with Frontend H5P Editor, a free companion plugin from IndiEgg Studios. When both plugins are active and configured, the View and Edit links in the library table automatically point to your front-end pages; keeping users entirely on the front end throughout their H5P workflow. Alternatively, administrators can use the Custom URL option in Library Link Behavior settings to integrate any third-party front-end editor plugin. The custom URL supports dynamic tokens (%h5p_id% and %h5p_title%) so you can build any URL structure your chosen plugin requires.

Here at interconnect/it we have a policy of developing client sites with the premise of “content manage everything!” That means the little notices on sites, minor widgets and so on should not only be content managed, but they should be easy for both an end-user and a developer to work with. To that end, we developed Spots. This creates a custom post type that allows you to create widgets using a visual editor, whilst also giving developers an easy hook for the creation of content managable elements within a theme. The plugin now uses caching in order to help ensure that the load on a typical site is kept to a minimum. Performance is important! The plugin is prepared for translation, if you’d like to drop us a line about your translation you can contact us through our website. Developer Notes Spots provides 2 template tags for developers to use shown below with their supported arguments. icit_spot( $id_or_name, $template ); $id_or_name: Required. A numeric ID or the name of a spot as a string. $template: Optional. A string used in a call to get_template_part() This template tag always echos out the spot. icit_get_spot( $id_or_name, $template, $echo ); Same as the above with an extra argument: $echo: Optional. Defaults to false. A boolean to indicate whether to echo the spot content or just return it. Basic Usage You can use spots to replace boilerplate text in your themes. If you have areas in your themes where typically you would hard code the text you could use the following code: The above code would output the contents of a spot titled ‘Copyright’. If the spot does not exist it will be created as a draft. Spots in draft mode are only visible to logged in users with editing capabilities. Templates The plugin will initially look for a file in your theme using the get_template_part() function. If you have a file called spot.php in your theme that will be the default template for all spots. The icit_spot() function can take a second parameter for the template part to use for example: The above code will make the plugin look in your theme folder for a file called spot-copyright.php to use for the output. If not available it will fall back to spot.php and if that is not available it will simply output the spot contents. Use templates when you want to display a featured image from a spot or if you require some additional/alternative markup for the spot. Spots are just like posts, so in the templates you retrieve the contents of the spot using the_content() just as would in the loop. Basic spot template example: Spot template with featured image: Additional There are many filters and hooks available to get even more out of spots so drop by the plugin homepage or use the forums if there is something you need to do with spots but aren’t sure how.
