As you can see its format is quite simple. The point is imported line 7:

This tells the browser how and where to search. Normally, as in this case, WordPress uses the standard:

However, depending on need, as I did for Divoogle , this part of the code may vary. della nostra home page: Once you create this file, simply insert a tag link in the section head of our home page:

segnalerà al browser (che lo supporta) dove recuperare tutte le informazioni per aggiungere il motore di ricerca. Through the attribute rel="search" , this link will signal to the browser (that supports it) where to get all the information to add the search engine.
