 This plugin can be configured like other metadata source plugins as described in
 :ref:`metadata-source-plugin-configuration`.
 
-The ``deezer`` plugin provides an additional command ``deezerupdate`` to update
-the ``rank`` information from Deezer. The ``rank`` (ranges from 0 to 1M) is a
-global indicator of a song's popularity on Deezer that is updated daily based on
-streams. The higher the ``rank``, the more popular the track is.
+The default options should work as-is, but there are some options you can put
+in config.yaml under the ``deezer:`` section:
+
+- **search_query_ascii**: If set to ``yes``, the search query will be converted to
+  ASCII before being sent to Deezer. Converting searches to ASCII can
+  enhance search results in some cases, but in general, it is not recommended. 
+  For instance `artist:deadmau5 album:4×4` will be converted to 
+  `artist:deadmau5 album:4x4` (notice `×!=x`).
+  Default: ``no``.
