<p>I hate wasting time adding dummy content to a theme.</p>
<p>SCF Dummy Content quickly populates a site with dummy titles, content and featured images. It can create posts, pages, custom post types and terms for registered taxonomies.</p>
<p>I appreciate your comments and any ideas for improvement!</p>


SCF Dummy Content

Quickly populate your site with dummy content.

<p>This plugin provides a central dashboard to monitor various WordPress components, processes and data, including server hardware, software and resource usage. Pairs well with <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/" rel="ugc">Query Monitor</a> to help you do some solid dev work.</p>

<p>Despite having 20 WordPress modules and 4 server modules, the single-page dashboard loads fast as queries are optimized and most modules employ fast AJAX loading of data. It does not weight down wp-admin, and nothing is loaded on the front-end. Install, activate and let it sit there ready to summon the info/data you need.</p>
<p>To preview the module screenshots more easily, please scroll down the <a href="https://github.com/qriouslad/system-dashboard" rel="nofollow ugc">github repo</a>. Here’s a rundown of the available modules…</p>

<h3>For All WordPress and Server Modules:</h3>
<ul>
<li>List of relevant tools (plugins) and references (articles) for each module</li>
</ul>
<h3>Technical Notes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Requires shell_exec and exec functions enabled for some modules to work properly. e.g. the Hooks > Active Plugins tool.</li>
<li>There’s an MU (must-use) plugin that unloads all other plugins for admin-ajax calls initiated from the dashboard, so these calls stay fast no matter how complex and big your site is.</li>
<li>The longest first load is probably the Hooks > Active Plugins tool, which scans action and filter hooks from all active plugins on the site. The more plugins are active, the longer it takes. If your server/hosting has a low execution time limit, you may need to load the module two or three times for the scan to complete. Once complete, subsequent loads of the module should be much much faster.</li>
<li>This plugin has been tested to work with servers powered by NGINX, Apache and Litespeed, and also sites using PHP 7+ and 8+.</li>
</ul>
