In the **Editor** menu, the first option in the Select content type menu allows you to Create content or Upload. While uploading activities into Moodle from files created on the [www.H5P.org](http://www.H5P.org) site is possible, creating new resources in Moodle is the preferred method. This guarantees that the content type you wish to create will function correctly. Click the Details button next to the H5P activity you want to create.

Next, select **Use** next to the type of content you wish to create.

The editor will contain all the options for creating the selected interaction content type. There are currently 28 content types available in the H5P resource, and each has different steps for setup. The setup of individual items will not be covered in this guide. Many types will have a Tutorial and Example available. Links to these are available below the resource editor.
