Search syntax
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
SearXNG allows you to modify the default categories, engines and search language
|
|
via the search query.
|
|
|
|
Prefix ``!``
|
|
to set Category/engine
|
|
|
|
Prefix: ``:``
|
|
to set language
|
|
|
|
Abbrevations of the engines and languages are also accepted. Engine/category
|
|
modifiers are chainable and inclusive (e.g. with :search:`!it !ddg !wp qwer
|
|
<?q=%21it%20%21ddg%20%21wp%20qwer>` search in IT category **and** duckduckgo
|
|
**and** wikipedia for ``qwer``).
|
|
|
|
See the :search:`/preferences page <preferences>` for the list of engines,
|
|
categories and languages.
