Custom Search
ElasticPress is a fast and intelligent search and query engine for your WordPress website. It allows WordPress to find or “query” relevant content extremely fast through a variety of customizable features.
By default, WordPress struggles to determine content relevance, and it is very slow. ElasticPress, and other custom search plugins, connects your WordPress website to search hosting for faster and more complete search.
Here is a list of some of the features included in the ElasticPress plugin:
Search: Instantly find the content you’re looking for.
Instant Results: A built for WordPress search experience that bypasses WordPress for optimal performance.
WooCommerce: “I want a cotton, man’s t-shirt, for under $25 that’s in stock.” Your buyers can find the perfect product quickly.
Documents: Indexes text inside of file types, and adds those files types to search results.
Autosuggest: Suggest relevant content as text is entered into the search field.
Facets: Add controls to your website to filter content by one or more taxonomies.
Users: Improve user search relevancy and query performance.
Note
ElasticPress plugin requires Cloudways hosting or upgraded WP Engine hosting with direct billing.
