Dummy Content TYPO3 Extension
=============================

[](#dummy-content-typo3-extension)

This is a TYPO3 extension.

What does it do?
----------------

[](#what-does-it-do)

With this extension an editor can quickly add some dummy text to pages and content with a click.

Buttons are added to a set of backend form fields like *title*, *header*, *bodytext*. A click on those buttons will add dummy text to the form field.

Currently following content types are preconfigured

- pages
- content (tt\_content)
- news (tx\_news\_domain\_model\_news)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the extension by using composer and `composer req colorcube/dummy-content` or by downloading it in the extension manager or on [https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/dummy\_content/](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/dummy_content/).

Tested with TYPO3 v8.7, v9.5 and v10.4.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Click on the dummy text buttons to create texts with different length. The text replaces the current content.

Languages
---------

[](#languages)

While the default dummy text is based on the well known 'Lorem ipsum', the generated text is modified to match the currently edited language if possible. For Example in the german language the umlauts *äöüß* are added. Currently rules for the following languages are available:

- german (de)
- french (fr)

Have a look into Resources/Public/JavaScript/LoremIpsum.js at `LoremIpsum.languages` how to add new languages.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Currently there's no way to configure the extension, but a developer can easily add the wizard buttons to other tables and fields than the predefined.

Have a look in `Configuration/TCA/Overrides` and the way the TCA configuration is added to enable the wizard button.

Usage in Own Extension
----------------------

[](#usage-in-own-extension)

You can provide TCA configuration in your own extension to activate dummy\_content.

Example for a extension *site\_events*

File site\_events/Configuration/TCA/Overrides/tx\_siteevents\_domain\_model\_event.php:

```
