 ## Variables
 
-A full discussion of the available variables is not feasible there is a great deal of interdependence between the various form fields, variables, and javascript functions. The Parameters can be used to modify how the search behaves. If you wish to modify the search form itself, simply use the default form as a base and customize it from there.
+### `channel_names`
+
+Pre-populated string containing list of `<option>` tags containing channels that can be used to select channel to search in.
+
+### `lang:...`
+

+
+#### `lang:search_engine`
+#### `lang:search`
+#### `lang:search_by_keyword`
+#### `lang:search_in_titles`
