Local working copy saved
Your working edit is preserved so you can come back to it.
A local workspace for changes that still respects the live server.
TraceLayer lets you prepare and review changes locally, then checks current server state before preparing a write.
Server version checked
TraceLayer records the live version it saw when editing began.
Conflict needs review
If the live version changes, TraceLayer blocks the write until you compare the difference.
Posts and Pages are different workspaces
Posts often need categories, tags, excerpts, scheduling, and social queue planning. Pages need hierarchy, templates, HTML review, and update diffs. TraceLayer keeps those rules separate so page workflows do not accidentally behave like social posts.
Key rule
Pages cannot include social targets or post-only taxonomy payloads. Social planning belongs in Posts mode only.
