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