Lorem shortcut on Visual Studio 2013 not working

Question

I saw some people on internet saying that if you type "lorem" in the view of ASP.NET, and then hit TAB, then it will be generated a "Lorem Ipsum" with 30 words.

I think its great, but I can't make it happen! What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

You need to have Web Essentials installed. Download link

I have it installed, but didn't know about that feature so thanks for highlighting it!

Answer 2

You have to download and install Dummy Text Generator from marketplace for lorem ipsum and other text generators

I know this is annoying to install new extension for every other feature.
