Plugin for generating dummy content

I was wondering if there any plugin that generates dummy content for development purpose either to test some plugins or try some TXP tips.
In case no there one, I would like to suggest to plugin developers to create one, since other popular CMS have several for these purposes.
I hope this idea interests to you.
Best regards

I have this one somewhere (called cbe_rand_content).
Just a moment, please.

wet_lorem_ipsum

Hi Oleg. That plugin doesn’t work in my local TXP installation. I get some errors and I wasn’t able to generate dummy content. Probably, because is for TXP 4.6 and I am doing some test in 4.5.7.

Hi Claire. Your plugin works and it’s enough for what I pretend :)
Many thanks to both.

Best regards

Re: Plugin for generating dummy content

Great, we have choice:

  • wet_lorem_ipsum: 4.6 only, populates also keywords;
  • cbe_rand_content: adds random comments to random articles, which is very useful for tests. Merci Claire !

Add in a stylesheet to load Redacted and you’ve got even less distraction.
