What is the content bank?

The content bank is an area in Moodle where content (currently H5P content) may be stored, edited and created.

The content bank repository gives access to these files from the file picker.

Where is the content bank?

As a teacher, when you are in a course you'll find a link to the content bank in the Navigation drawer (Boost-based themes) or the Navigation block, under Site pages (Classic-based themes).

Files may be viewed in list view by clicking the icon top right of the content bank.

The content bank repository is available from the file picker to locate and add H5P files into courses.

How does the content bank work?

New H5P content may be created via the Add button. It can be edited by clicking into the content then clicking Edit:

Editing existing H5P

H5P activities can also be uploaded into the content bank then edited if required.

H5P activity types available in the content back are automatically downloaded via CRON or can manually be added by uploading h5p activity files (*.h5p).

Renaming and deleting H5P

Click into an H5P activity and from the cog icon top right, access the Rename and Delete options.
