    As some of you have noticed, support & development of this plugin has really fallen off the rails. It’s become a pain to maintain and enhance a codebase that dates back as far as this one. It’s time to start fresh.

    I’ve begun work on a complete rewrite of the plugin, currently called “Dave’s WordPress Live Search: The Next Generation”. My goal is to write it with modern best practices so it’s less of a pain to work on.

    Pull requests, issues, and documentation are always welcome!
