I've noticed that the Configuration section contains the correct setting for Placeholder level, this is why I underlined it in the screenshot.
The level you are talking about is the level the current instance has access to (and it does have access to everything, since it's the owner).
Ok, I couldn't find the description in the documentation pages. In this case, I think maybe it would make sense to rename the 'Replication level' from the Replication tab to: "Replication level to which the current instance has access to", to be more clear.
Replication works fine with Everything instead Placeholder in the configuration ? No error/warning in the log ?
There are some WARNs in the logs, but I don't think they are related (got these also for other pages as well, not especially related to setting Placeholder level):
From what I've tested so far, it works with Everything > 'Both', and Everything > 'Send only,' however, there is an issue with Everything > 'Receive only', I think.
For example, when I create a new page, then from Page Administration I set from 'Page and children' > 'All instances' > 'Replication level' > 'Everything', 'Replication direction' > 'Receive only' and save, this page is not replicated on the other instance (but it gets replicated if I select 'Both' or 'Send only').
The Replication tab for this 'Everything / Receive only' page looks like this:

TheOn the Replication tab for this 'Everything / Receive only' page looks like this, the Replication level is 'Unknown' and the Configuration says: 'Allow updates to be sent and received from this instance',, but it's set to 'Receive only'.
Should I create a separate issue for this? I was waiting to confirm, maybe I'm missing something.
