Plugin will create lots of users, messages, friends connections, groups, topics, activity items, profile data – useful for testing purpose.
All imported users will have avatars, generated by 8biticon.com and displayed by Gravatar.
Please use this plugin with caution and not on a live site! Again, USE FOR TESTING THEMES AND PLUGINGS, NOT ON A STAGING SITE WITH LIVE DATA. Plugin should not mess with your live data, but not guaranteed.
Clear BuddyPress button will delete all data, that was generated by this plugin: messages, groups, notifications, friends, forum posts, xprofile. Plugin won’t reimport data if clicked twice.
And turn off email notifications in profile (friendship accepted and messages received) – or you will spam yourself 🙂 Imported users have these settings already turned off.

BuddyPress Default Data

This is a great utility plugin. It saved me lots of time and worked perfectly as described.
Thanks Slava!



Easy to use and fast

I love this plugin because it has saved me so much time in the past by automating the members/groups/profiles creation. It's still my 2nd plugin that is installed (after BuddyPress) for any BP-related development site.

PS: I'm testing reviews as well.

Love this little plugin!

I use this plugin every time I work on my BuddyPress plugin. Saves me a TON of time adding test users and data. I particularly like the granularity of the data you can add. And the easy removal of test data. Thanks for such a great plugin!

Super helpful plugin. Love it!

Works!
