    I was thinking of making the plugin, but looks like you already have and it's very well done. Great work!

  • Superb!

    Lorem Ipsum Block has saved so much time in generating test and dummy content. The auto-complete feature - typing lorem and p/h/h2 + enter is a brilliant addition. Works just fine with WordPress 5.5 Great work, really nice plugin, thank you!

  • Request improvement

    I love this plugin. It actually help me to creates dummy contents for testing. I want to request two improvements: Custom word number. Support other blocks, such as List, Quote. Thanks.
