There are occasions when you need to manually create multiple Posts to see how they look with your chosen WP Theme. This plugin assists in auto generating placeholder content instead of you doing so manually. Simply follow the easy steps below to create that dummy content for your website. Please note that you should not use this for actual content of a live website.

Placeholder Content

Generate Posts with \"Lorem Ipsum\" text for the purpose of testing content layout.

This is a simple plugin which creates a [lorem-ipsum] shortcode that can be used to add an arbitrary number of Lorem Ipsum paragraphs (default 2), each one of arbitrary length (default 40 words). There are some plugins out there which create dummy content (posts/pages) filled with Lorem Ipsum, but this one just allows one to insert Lorem Ipsum into existing content, wherever shortcodes are accepted. I developed this to help place chunks of text into my test posts during theme development.
Maximum length of each paragraph and the number of paragraphs can be specified in the shortcode.
Features like paragraph length randomization and text start offset are supported but are not yet implemented in the admin interface. Currently, the length of each passage is randomized to 1/3 of the specified maximum paragraph length (e.g. for a 60-word paragraph, the actual generated length could be anywhere from 60 to 80 words). Each paragraph will also start at a different point in the text.
Usage: 
The shortcode takes the “p” and “wmax” parameters. “p” sets the number of generated paragraphs, and “wmax” sets the maximum length, in words, of each paragraph. Note that this value is used to set the actual max length, which can vary up to wmax+wmax/3.
If called without parameters, [lorem-ipsum] will create 2 paragraphs of 60 to 80 words each.
Examples: 
* [lorem-ipsum] 
* [lorem-ipsum p=6] 
* [lorem-ipsum wmax=100] 
* [lorem-ipsum p=9 wmax=21]

Just Add Lipsum

Creates a [lorem-ipsum] shortcode which can be used to add Lorem Ipsum text to any field which accepts shortcodes.
