June 2025 release note
Multilingual support for Smart Import
In this release, we are introducing support for generating content in 56 different languages in addition to English. With this update, you can decide what language you want content generated in! You can, for example, upload a file or link to a page in English and specify that you want the generated H5Ps to be in Spanish.
The new available languages are:
Afrikaans, Arabic, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Belarusian, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, Galician, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Kannada, Kazakh, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malay, Marathi, Maori, Nepali, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swahili, Swedish, Tagalog, Tamil, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, Vietnamese, and Welsh.
New features in Game Map
- Authors can set a plain background color instead of having to set a background image.
- Authors can add a new type of special stage (link) that allows students to jump to web pages.
- Authors can style each path separately: color, style and width.
- Authors can now add multiple subcontents to a stage. Handling is like in Column, so the stage score is the combined score for all subcontents, etc.
- Authors can now set detailed access restrictions for each stage based on:
- Total score.
- Score of another stage.
- Progress of another stage.
- Date and time.
- + any combinations of the above.
- Success/failure sounds will now play for xAPI results of all subcontents, not only immediate children (e.g. True/False inside Course Presentation as a stage).
- Authors can optionally make stages have stars on top that signal the achieved score.
- Users can not open settings to control the volume of the background music and the sound effects separately.
- Access restrictions will now also be applied in free roaming mode.
- Updated dependencies to content types to their current versions.
Improvements
- CKEditor: add option to choose whether links are opened in the same window or a new tab. Previously, all links were opened in a new tab.
- Several improvements have been implemented to increase performance for all end users.
- Add a link to the help article on Responsible AI Principles to the footer of H5P.com.
- The Smart Import service is now hosted in each region
