Its the same as yoast and rankmath, We use their filters to pass the actual layout data to their analysis tools on the wp-admin post edit page. By default they just look at the normal wp content.

Just started using 2.5 on a new build. So, so useful having the template shortcodes on display and duplicate option for this particular client and job. Thank you for all your work. I love it,

I was just doing this client a personal video explaining child columns and I stumbled a bit when I showed them this on the Outline Panel. Child columns there are called a sub-columns which makes perfect sense in that context, but after showing them you can spot a child column because it has a parent it seemed odd.

Not saying I think it is wrong - just what struck me at the time. Not usual for me to get into this with clients, but this one has had a few BB sites going back 6 years.
