Define set of generators in context menu #27

I've been using Fake Data for some time now and I'm really happy with it (pro user).

I don't use the 'fill the form' feature much; instead, I rely heavily on the context menu to generate random data for our chat application. The generators I use the most are 'full_name', 'email', 'phone', and 'sentence'.

Here's my suggestion: allow me to customize my context menu. This way, I can keep only the necessary generators and assign more descriptive names to them (e.g., 'Full name' instead of 'full_name', etc.).

This would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the suggestion! I will have to think about this.

It might not be what you asked for, but in the Settings page / General Settings, there is an option at the bottom to Group Default Generators inside context menu.

This will basically hide the Default Generators under their own menu item, so you can see more easily the Custom Generators.

I've tried it but I need some default generators too. :)

Of course I can channel some of default generators through my custom generators but it seems like a workaround. Also, default generators submenu getting in the way all the time.

Basically, if there is option to hide default generators completely it would be enough. I just could create my own custom ones with names I like. :)

Ok, I see what you're saying. I will leave this feature request open and will think of a functionality to better manage the context menu items. I will keep you updated on this.
