👔Trait Manager

🎨 Trait Manager Backend – MetaMate

Traits are one of the two fundamental pillars of the MetaMate bot, alongside the meta database. The Trait Manager helps ensure NFT traits are correctly named, structured, and ordered for optimal rendering across different MetaMate features.

🛠 Trait Manager – Organizing Your Traits

✅ Correct Naming & Metadata Sync

• All traits are automatically placed with names that correspond exactly (including correct capitalization) to the names and types found in your NFT metadata.

• This ensures smooth integration across all MetaMate features and prevents inconsistencies in how NFTs are generated and displayed.

✅ Efficient File Uploading

• To optimize performance, all trait files must be uploaded in WebP format.

• Why WebP?

  • Faster loading times

  • Smaller file sizes

  • Better image quality for transparency-based traits

📏 Trait Order Manager – Structuring Your NFT Build

In the second tab of the Trait Manager, you'll find the Trait Order Manager. This allows you to control how your NFTs are constructed layer by layer.

Two Types of Trait Orders:

1. PFP & Banner Trait Order (No Background Traits)

   • Used specifically for the profile picture (PFP) and banner components.

   • Background traits are excluded to allow flexibility in background choices.

2. Full Trait Order (All Components)

   • Used for all other MetaMate features, ensuring the complete NFT structure is maintained.

   • Background traits are included for a full NFT composition.

By defining clear trait orders, you ensure consistency in how NFTs are generated across different MetaMate tools.
