+Google Search
+   To replace Sphinx's built-in search function with Google Search, proceed as
+   follows:
+
+   1. Go to https://cse.google.com/cse/all to create the Google Search code
+      snippet.
+
+   2. Copy the code snippet and paste it into ``_templates/searchbox`` in your
+      Sphinx project:
+
+      .. code-block:: html+django
+
+         <div>
+            <h3>{{ _('Quick search') }}</h3>
+            <script>
+               (function() {
+                  var cx = '......';
+                  var gcse = document.createElement('script');
+                  gcse.type = 'text/javascript';
+                  gcse.async = true;
+                  gcse.src = 'https://cse.google.com/cse.js?cx=' + cx;
+                  var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
+                  s.parentNode.insertBefore(gcse, s);
+               })();
+            </script>
+           <gcse:search></gcse:search>
+         </div>
+
+   3. Add ``searchbox.html`` to the :confval:`html_sidebars` configuration value.
