OpenLiteSpeed Wordpress

Hey Marcus,

yes and no, OLS/LS is objectively more efficient over apache, and this make it more performant then apache.
Berceuse as Nginx it can serve static file without wake up a php, that apache is using for every request on a WP.
But as i already say sometimes a good server lvl optimization of nginx is performing as well but is not easy to setup, OLS or LS offer LSCache to do all the config from WP dashboard.

WP plugin are not the best way to go, because they just let the call be managed by a PHP, many like Cache enabler, just create a HTML copy of the website, that is more performant no elaboration needed by db or php, but if you use apache you will wake up PHP anyway so CPU and RAM wasted.

We are in Open Beta for OLS, if you want we can provide you the image.
But for now the code is closed sourse, it will be realise with a custom licenses that is open source but not commercially usable by MSP or ISP to offer WordPress as a Service or PaaS.

@moocloud_matt I only use Cloudron for personal / development purposes. My production Wordpress installation (hosted elsewhere) uses OLS so it'd be nice to use my Cloudron installation to have the same stack for testing purposes. Would you mind sharing the image with me as well?

[MooCloud_Matt]

@lonk
Yes, ofc!

just contact me on the cloudron chat: @MooCloud-Matt.

As far as I know, 'OPENLiteSpeed' is the OPEN version of LiteSpeed server and is licensed under GPL3 which means you cannot take this OPEN SOURCE software, go away with it and close the code for you and your licking.

To give an idea this is the preamble that MUST be included in each file's header:

Even before reading the terms of the license, this preamble says it all.

I recommend you read carefully the terms of General PUBLIC Licenses 1, 2, and 3 and if you don't understand then ask for legal advice from law people if you do not want to risk to get into hot-water, because in light of what you are saying this is something you cannot do. Jtlyk.

We are not closing OLS, but the other code on the image, that we have written and develop, like the cli interface.

Docker image (dockerfile), cloudron.manifest file and the software that they contain can have different license in any case.

Is been always the same, we previously have use OLS as moocloud app of OLS that use a custom image that include proprietary code.
That allow us to choose the license for our image.
OLS and the other software inside will maintain there license as usual.

Our license will not interfere with any cloudron customer but only with MSP or Hosting providers, if you are one of those 2 you can contact moocloud and we can have an agreement.

Hello
Has the project been abandoned? If not, when can we expect to see WordPress in the OLS environment

[MooCloud_Matt]

@kris
hello @kris,

for now, all the apps developed by us are not on the store, we are talking with the Cloudron team about how partners can publish apps.

It will take some time anyway, but the Nginx version of WordPress will probably be the first app from us on the store.

[jonashartmann]

please - this would be THE APP OF THE YEAR!! I would use cloudron for my 200 hosting clients if this would be possible with open lite speed.

[marcusquinn]

@jonashartmann We found we could get Wordpress running pretty efficiently with some techniques detailed by Dave Hilditch here:

• https://www.wpintense.com

As an example, there's over 100 plugins on our Wordpress & Woocommerce site here hosted on a Cloudron app:

• https://brandlight.org
• https://brandlight.org/the-pursuit-of-website-speed-is-almost-over-when-you-have-perceptibly-instant-page-loading-times-everywhere/
• (Since that was written, we reproduced what Algolia does with an in-house developed ElasticSearch alternative, also hosted on Cloudron.)

[MooCloud_Matt]

@jonashartmann
The first MooCloud App that will be ported is WordPress + Nginx (that in many cases is even better than OLS), but we have OLS already working for many of our servers with cloudron.
It is just a question of porting it and publishing it.

We are working with cloudron to allow MooCloud Registry and apps to the AppStore but it is too early to promise any ETA.

Is there a how-to on that?

[MooCloud_Matt]

Most likely yes.
And mostly is custom develop.

I think that we should be able to offer solution that are a good, not perfect, but fit for everyone.

[marcusquinn]

@robi It's based on this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/elasticpress/. Plus some custom add-on plugins we wrote for our custom theme.

Ah okay, that makes it a bit simpler. Does it work across subdomains?

Do you have https://github.com/10up/ElasticPress packaged for Cloudron?

Hmm, I didn't find an app request for it..

Are you using the Scalability Pro plugin or just his enhancement tips?

[marcusquinn]

@robi ElasticSearch, yes: https://git.cloudron.io/vladimir.d/elasticsearch

[marcusquinn]

@humptydumpty Yes, with these settings we found best to avoid issues or loss of features we want to use.:

[humptydumpty]

@marcusquinn Thank you for sharing your settings!
