# Discovery: category, level, language & tags

> The Discovery section is 'how students find and judge your course.' Category, level, language, and tags drive your catalog filters and search — get them right and the right learners show up.

In the Basics tab, the Discovery card groups the four fields that classify your course.

## Category

Pick a subject like 'Mathematics – Primary'. This is the primary way learners filter your storefront, so choose the one they'd actually browse to.

## Level

Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced. It sets expectations and feeds the level filter. Level honestly — a mismatch is a top cause of refunds.

## Language

The language the course is taught in. Pick from the available languages; some are marked 'Coming soon'. If your course shows a 'Legacy — pick a new one' chip, switch it to a current language.

## Tags

Free-form keywords — type one and press Enter ('Add a tag and press Enter…'). The editor suggests tags based on your category. Tags widen searchability without cluttering the main category. Match what learners search ('Grade 5 math', the exam name, the grade).

> **Note:** Think of it as the difference between where your course is shelved (category + level + language) and the keywords on the spine (tags). One category, several tags.
