Search syntax

Infinity Search comes with a search syntax by which you can modify the categories, engines, languages, and more. See the preferences for the list of engines, categories, and languages.

! Select engine and category

To set category and/or engine names, use a ! prefix. To give a few examples:

Abbreviations of the engines and languages are also accepted. Engine/category modifiers are chainable and inclusive. For example, !map !ddg !wp paris searches in the map category and searches DuckDuckGo and Wikipedia for paris.

: Select language

To select a language filter use a : prefix. To give an example:

!!<bang> External bangs

Infinity Search supports the external bangs from DuckDuckGo. To directly jump to a external search page use the !! prefix. To give an example:

Please keep in mind that the result you are being redirected to can’t be verified for trustworthiness and Infinity Search cannot protect your personal privacy when using this feature. Use it at your own risk.
