Within auth-enabled collections, we inject the `password` and
`confirmPassword` fields into the field schema map. While this is fine
within the edit view where these fields are used, this breaks field
paths within the version diff view where unnamed fields are no longer
able to lookup their corresponding config. This is because the presence
of these injected fields increments the field indices by two.
A temporary fix for this is to simply inject these fields _last_ into
the schema map. This way their presence does not disrupt field path
generation. A long term fix should be implemented, however, where these
fields actually exist on the collection config itself. This way no
config mutation would be required as the sanitized config would the
single source of truth.
To do this, we'd need to ensure that these fields do not appear in any
APIs, and that they do not generate types, etc.
This will improve performance when updating a single document in
postgres/drizzle, if the ID is known.
Previously, this resulted in 2 sequential operations:
- `db.select `to fetch the document by the ID
- `upsertRow` to update the document (multiple db operations)
This PR removes the unnecessary `db.select` call, as the document ID is
already known
Previously, many test cases in `int/relationships` were wrapped to the
"custom IDs" describe block even though they aren't related to custom
IDs at all. This rearranges them as they should be.
### What
The `crypto.randomUUID()` function was causing errors in non-secure
contexts (HTTP), as it is only available in secure contexts (HTTPS).
### How
Added a fallback to generate UUIDs using the `uuid` library when
`crypto.randomUUID()` is not available.
Fixes#11825
This PR introduces a new utility function, `getSafeRedirect`, to
sanitize and validate redirect paths used in the login flow.
It replaces the previous use of `encodeURIComponent` and inline string
checks with a centralized, reusable, and more secure approach.
#### `getSafeRedirect` utility:
- Ensures redirect paths start with a single `/`
- Blocks protocol-relative URLs (e.g., `//evil.com`)
- Blocks JavaScript schemes (e.g., `/javascript:alert(1)`)
- Blocks full URL redirects like `/http:` or `/https:`
This ensures that the lexical field can be rendered without having to
wrap it inside an `EntityVisibilityProvider`, making it a bit easier to
manually render the lexical field in a custom component.
same comment as in #11560, #11831, #11226:

Fixes#11458
Some complex, nested fields were receiving incorrect field paths and
schema paths, leading to a `"Error: No client field found"` error.
This PR ensures field paths are calculated correctly, by matching it to
how they're calculated in payload hooks.
Query Presets allow you to save and share filters, columns, and sort
orders for your collections. This is useful for reusing common or
complex filtering patterns and column configurations across your team.
Query Presets are defined on the fly by the users of your app, rather
than being hard coded into the Payload Config.
Here's a screen recording demonstrating the general workflow as it
relates to the list view. Query Presets are not exclusive to the admin
panel, however, as they could be useful in a number of other contexts
and environments.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1fe1155e-ae78-4f59-9138-af352762a1d5
Each Query Preset is saved as a new record in the database under the
`payload-query-presets` collection. This will effectively make them
CRUDable and allows for an endless number of preset configurations. As
you make changes to filters, columns, limit, etc. you can choose to save
them as a new record and optionally share them with others.
Normal document-level access control will determine who can read,
update, and delete these records. Payload provides a set of sensible
defaults here, such as "only me", "everyone", and "specific users", but
you can also extend your own set of access rules on top of this, such as
"by role", etc. Access control is customizable at the operation-level,
for example you can set this to "everyone" can read, but "only me" can
update.
To enable the Query Presets within a particular collection, set
`enableQueryPresets` on that collection's config.
Here's an example:
```ts
{
// ...
enableQueryPresets: true
}
```
Once enabled, a new set of controls will appear within the list view of
the admin panel. This is where you can select and manage query presets.
General settings for Query Presets are configured under the root
`queryPresets` property. This is where you can customize the labels,
apply custom access control rules, etc.
Here's an example of how you might augment the access control properties
with your own custom rule to achieve RBAC:
```ts
{
// ...
queryPresets: {
constraints: {
read: [
{
label: 'Specific Roles',
value: 'specificRoles',
fields: [roles],
access: ({ req: { user } }) => ({
'access.update.roles': {
in: [user?.roles],
},
}),
},
],
}
}
}
```

Previously, if you were querying a collection that has a join field with
`draft: true`, and the join field's collection also has
`versions.drafts: true` our db adapter would still query the original
SQL table / mongodb collection instead of the versions one which isn't
quite right since we respect `draft: true` when populating relationships
**BREAKING CHANGE:**
This bumps the **minimum required Next.js** version from 15.0.0 to
15.2.3. This update is necessary due to a critical security
vulnerability found in earlier Next.js versions, which requires an
exception to our standard semantic versioning process.
Additionally, this bumps all templates to the latest Next.js and Payload
versions.
## What
This PR fixes the exported hook name in the collection hooks
documentation example.
### Why
The documentation example shows an incorrect/inconsistent export name
for the collection hook example.
### How
Updated the hook export name to follow consistent naming patterns used
throughout the documentation.
### Type of Change
- [x] Documentation update
This is already supported in Postgres / SQLite.
For example:
```
const result = await payload.find({
collection: 'directors',
depth: 0,
sort: '-movies.name', // movies is a relationship field here
})
```
Removes the condition in tests:
```
// no support for sort by relation in mongodb
if (isMongoose(payload)) {
return
}
```
This PR adds support for passing additional props to the HTML element of
Next.js `RootLayout`.
#### Context
In our setup, we use several custom Chakra UI components. This change
enables us to add a custom font `className` to the HTML element,
following the official Chakra UI documentation:
[Using custom fonts in Chakra UI with
Next.js](https://v2.chakra-ui.com/getting-started/nextjs-app-guide#using-custom-font)
#### Example Usage
With this update, we can now pass a `className` for custom fonts like
this:
```tsx
import { Rubik } from 'next/font/google'
const rubik = Rubik({
subsets: ['latin'],
variable: '--font-rubik',
})
const Layout = ({ children }: Args) => {
return (
<RootLayout htmlProps={{ className: rubik.variable }}>
{children}
</RootLayout>
);
}
```
Since the introduction of loading states in nested fields, i.e. array
and block rows, the conditional logic tests would fail periodically
because it wouldn't wait for loading states to resolve before
continuing. This has been increasingly flaky since the introduction of
form state queues.
Passes the `i18n` arg through field label and description functions.
This is to avoid using custom components when simply needing to
translate a `StaticLabel` object, such as collection labels.
Here's an example:
```ts
{
labels: {
singular: {
en: 'My Collection'
}
},
fields: [
// ...
{
type: 'collapsible',
label: ({ i18n }) => `Translate this: ${getTranslation(collectionConfig.labels.singular, i18n)}`
// ...
}
]
}
```
Previously, our job queue system relied on `payload.*` operations, which
ran very frequently:
- whenever job execution starts, as all jobs need to be set to
`processing: true`
- every single time a task completes or fails, as the job log needs to
be updated
- whenever job execution stops, to mark it as completed and to delete it
(if `deleteJobOnComplete` is set)
This PR replaces these with direct `payload.db.*` calls, which are
significantly faster than payload operations. Given how often the job
queue system communicates with the database, this should be a massive
performance improvement.
## How it affects running hooks
To generate the task status, we previously used an `afterRead` hook.
Since direct db adapter calls no longer execute hooks, this PR
introduces new `updateJob` and `updateJobs` helpers to handle task
status generation outside the normal payload hook lifecycle.
Additionally, a new `runHooks` property has been added to the global job
configuration. While setting this to `true` can be useful if custom
hooks were added to the `payload-jobs` collection config, this will
revert the job system to use normal payload operations.
This should be avoided as it degrades performance. In most cases, the
`onSuccess` or `onFail` properties in the job config will be sufficient
and much faster.
Furthermore, if the `depth` property is set in the global job
configuration, the job queue system will also fall back to the slower,
normal payload operations.

### What?
When a user lands on an edit page that has a relationship to an `Upload`
field (which is `HasMany`). The UI will make a request with `limit=0` to
the backend providing there is no IDs populated already.
When a media collection is large, it will try and load all media items
into memory which causes OOM crashes.
### Why?
Fixes: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11655 causing OOM
issues.
### How?
Adding guard check on the `populate` to ensure that it doesn't make a
request if not needed.

### What?
Got an error in the admin panel when opening a document with richtext
and block. The error is:
`TypeError: collapsedArray.includes is not a function`
Screenshot of the error:

After reseting the preferences the error is gone. I did not take a copy
of the database before using reset settings, so I'm not sure what the
preferences where set to. So not sure how it got that way.
### Why?
Make the reading of preferences more robust against wrong data type to
avoid error.
### How?
Make sure collapsedArray is actually an array before using it as such.
### What?
This PR fixes a bug in the relationship filter UI where no options are
displayed when working in a non-default locale with localized
collections. The query to fetch relationship options wasn't including
the current locale parameter, causing the select dropdown to appear
empty.
### Why?
When using localized collections with relationship fields:
1. If you create entries (e.g., Categories) only in a non-default locale
2. Set the global locale to that non-default locale
3. Try to filter another collection by its relationship to those
Categories
The filter dropdown would be empty, despite Categories existing in that
locale. This was happening because the `loadOptions` method in the
RelationshipFilter component didn't include the current locale in its
query.
### How?
The fix is implemented in
`packages/ui/src/elements/WhereBuilder/Condition/Relationship/index.tsx`
by:
1. Adding the `useLocale` hook to get the current locale in the
RelationshipFilter component
2. Including this locale in the query parameters when fetching
relationship options

Fixes#10019. When bulk editing subfields, such as a field within a
group, changes are not persisted to the database. Not only this, but
nested fields with the same name as another selected field are
controlled by the same input. E.g. typing into one fields changes the
value of both.
The root problem is that field paths are incorrect.
When opening the bulk edit drawer, fields are flattened into options for
the field selector. This is so that fields in a tab, for example, aren't
hidden behind their tab when bulk editing. The problem is that
`RenderFields` is not set up to receive pre-determined field paths. It
attempts to build up its own field paths, but are never correct because
`getFieldPaths` receives the wrong arguments.
The fix is to just render the top-level fields directly, bypassing
`RenderFields` altogether.
Fields with subfields will still recurse through this function, but at
the top-level, fields can be sent directly to `RenderField` (singular)
since their paths have already been already formatted in the flattening
step.
### What
This PR updates the `login` flow by wrapping redirect routes with
`encodeURIComponent`. This ensures that special characters in URLs (such
as ?, &, #) are properly encoded, preventing potential issues with
navigation and redirection.
### What?
In the localization example, changing the data in the admin panel does
not update the public page.
### Why?
The afterChange hook revalidates the wrong path after page is changed.
### How?
The afterChange hook is revalidating "/[slug]" but it should in fact
revalidate "/[locale]/[slug]"
Fixes #
Updated the path to include the locale before the slug.
