Tag "lorem"

Lorem Ipsum - Random content for your mockups

The loremipsum tag generates random content for use in mockups. It takes this content from Cicero's De finibus bonorum et malorum. By default you get a random number of paragraphs up to 6, but you can affect this behaviour by passing in parameters for quantity and units. Units can be "paragraphs" or "words"; the default is paragraphs. Quantity dictates the number of units returned. If your django.conf.settings.TEMPLATE_DEBUG is True, then no output is returned, so you should be OK in the event you leave the tag in a production template. Syntax: {% loremipsum %} {% loremipsum quantity="3" units="paragraphs" %} By leaving the behaviour as random, you can see how your layout handles varying amounts of content. Handy, especially for multi-column pages. [Here's a stoopid site](http://lakes.knoxzilla.com/) where I'm playing with random text, pictures, business listings, etc. I do plan to add a "corpus" parameter to allow you to put your own corpus between lorumipsum and endloremipsum tags and a template parameter to specify the corpus should come from a template, but this has suited me well thus far.
