About this plugin
Quickly generate customizable placeholder content for design, layout testing, and development workflows using a simple shortcode. Skip the Lorem Ipsum — plain, readable placeholder text that won’t distract clients or accidentally read as offensive, political, or suggestive.
Designed for the design and staging phase of a WordPress build, so you can preview exactly how your layouts look with realistic paragraph density before the actual content exists.
Two modes, one shortcode:
- Structural mode — specify the exact number of paragraphs and sentences per paragraph
- Excerpt mode — specify a character count and the plugin fills to that length, always ending on a complete sentence
Optional style overrides:
- Set a hex color, font size, or font weight directly in the shortcode
- When not set, text inherits your theme’s typography automatically
Works with all major page builders including Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, and the native Gutenberg block editor.
Key features:
- Shortcode-based — works anywhere WordPress shortcodes are supported
- Fully neutral word list — no gendered, suggestive, racial, religious, political, or nationality terms
- No external API calls — all content generated locally from a built-in word list
- No assets loaded on the front end — zero impact on page speed
- Optional inline style overrides with input validation
- Inherits theme styling by default

Shortcode Reference
Basic usage — all defaults:
[lumina_content]
Generates 3 paragraphs, 4 sentences each.
Word mode (headings and short display text):
[lumina_content word-count=”4″]
Returns exactly N plain words with no sentence punctuation or paragraph tags. Drop into a heading block for dummy header text. Maximum 20 words.
Structural mode:
[lumina_content number-of-paragraphs=”2″ sentences-per-paragraph=”5″]
Excerpt mode:
[lumina_content excerpt-character-amount=”400″]
Excerpt mode takes priority over structural mode if both are specified.
With style overrides:
[lumina_content color=”#2c3e50″ size=”18px” weight=”bold”]
Full example:
[lumina_content number-of-paragraphs=”3″ sentences-per-paragraph=”4″ color=”#444444″ size=”1rem” weight=”400″]
Accepted values for style attributes:
- color — hex color only: #rgb or #rrggbb (e.g. #333 or #2c3e50 )
- size — CSS size with unit: px, em, rem, or % (e.g. 16px, 1.2rem )
- weight — normal, bold, lighter, bolder, or 100 through 900 in steps of 100
Invalid values are silently ignored — nothing will break.
