Cape Town WordPress Event Promises More Developments in Autocomplete and Search

September 4, 2013

The article titled ElasticSearch Soon Available for Websites on HumanIPO discusses LightSpeed’s developments in WordPress. The program will soon be emulating Google’s site search, and utilizes autocomplete based on Google entries. This development is scheduled for August. The article states,

“Also keen to improve the WordPress search functionality, the coding expert explained the key role of data in promoting the tool to scalability.

“Hopefully one day the datascale in WordPress is going to scale better because they are looking at reworking the post-type database infrastructure,” Shaw said, relating his knowledge of future plans for the popular open source platform.

The launch of a hostage server environment is also anticipated in August with a new SSL offloading system similar to Google’s recently released SPDY. “

Ashley Shaw, the founder of Lightspeed, spoke at the WordPress event in Cape Town. It is the hope of Shaw and others at WordPress that such events will lead to an African community akin to the WordCamp Europe. Kenya is particularly attractive, having taken mobile technology further. In the meantime, WordPress hopes to lower the cost of its new add-on service, which is currently set at US$2,500 for setup and an additional US$1,119 monthly subscription charge.
