Why a prompt may not fit its category
Why a prompt may not fit its category: what the category warning means and how to resolve it on your own prompt.
What the warning means
Each built-in category expects a certain kind of question. If a prompt doesn't match the category you put it in, LumaRank flags it so your results stay meaningful. The flag is guidance, not a block, so the prompt still runs.
Common mismatches
- A prompt filed under Industry Recommendation that actually names your brand. That makes it a Brand Awareness question instead.
- A Competitor Comparison prompt that doesn't mention any competitor.
- A Problem / Solution or Authority prompt that names a specific brand, when the point is to ask without naming one.
How to fix it
Either reword the prompt to match the category, or move it to the category it really belongs to. If it's intentionally off-pattern, use the Custom category, since custom prompts skip this check. See Prompt categories explained.
