 ### Why was this issue marked with the `invalid-reproduction` label?
 
-To be able to investigate, we need access to a reproduction to identify what triggered the issue. We prefer a link to a public GitHub repository created with `create-payload-app@beta -t blank` or a forked/branched version of this repository with tests added (more info in the [reproduction-guide](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/.github/reproduction-guide.md)).
+To be able to investigate, we need access to a reproduction to identify what triggered the issue. We prefer a link to a public GitHub repository created with `create-payload-app@latest -t blank` or a forked/branched version of this repository with tests added (more info in the [reproduction-guide](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/.github/reproduction-guide.md)).
 
 To make sure the issue is resolved as quickly as possible, please make sure that the reproduction is as **minimal** as possible. This means that you should **remove unnecessary code, files, and dependencies** that do not contribute to the issue. Ensure your reproduction does not depend on secrets, 3rd party registries, private dependencies, or any other data that cannot be made public. Avoid a reproduction including a whole monorepo (unless relevant to the issue). The easier it is to reproduce the issue, the quicker we can help.

-### Custom Components
-
-Collections can set their own [Custom Components](./components) which only apply to [Collection](../configuration/collections)-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](./overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
-
-To override Collection Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollection: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: { // highlight-line
-      // ...
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-The following options are available:
-
-| Path                       | Description                                                                                                                                |
-| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| **`beforeList`**           | An array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List View                                                                           |
-| **`beforeListTable`**      | An array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List View's table                                                                   |
-| **`afterList`**            | An array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List View                                                                            |
-| **`afterListTable`**       | An array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List View's table                                                                    |
-| **`Description`**          | A component to render below the Collection label in the List View. An alternative to the `admin.description` property.                     |
-| **`edit.SaveButton`**      | Replace the default Save Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be disabled.                                    |
-| **`edit.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default Save Draft Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
-| **`edit.PublishButton`**   | Replace the default Publish Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled.                                  |
-| **`edit.PreviewButton`**   | Replace the default Preview Button with a Custom Component. [Preview](#preview) must be enabled.                                           |
-| **`views`**                | Override or create new views within the Admin Panel. [More details](./views).                                                              |

-</Banner>
-
-### Preview
-
-It is possible to display a Preview Button within the Edit View of the Admin Panel. This will allow editors to visit the frontend of your app the corresponds to the document they are actively editing. This way they can preview the latest, potentially unpublished changes.
-
-To configure the Preview Button, set the `admin.preview` property to a function in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
-
-```ts
-import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    // highlight-start
-    preview: (doc, { locale }) => {
-      if (doc?.slug) {
-        return `/${doc.slug}?locale=${locale}`
-      }
-
-      return null
-    },
-    // highlight-end
-  },
-}
-```
-
-The `preview` property resolves to a string that points to your front-end application with additional URL parameters. This can be an absolute URL or a relative path.
-
-The preview function receives two arguments:
-
-| Argument | Description |
-| --- | --- |
-| **`doc`** | The Document being edited. |
-| **`ctx`** | An object containing `locale`, `token`, and `req` properties. The `token` is the currently logged-in user's JWT. |
-
-If your application requires a fully qualified URL, such as within deploying to Vercel Preview Deployments, you can use the `req` property to build this URL:
-
-```ts
-preview: (doc, { req }) => `${req.protocol}//${req.host}/${doc.slug}` // highlight-line
-```
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  **Note:**
-  For fully working example of this, check of the official [Draft Preview Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/draft-preview) in the [Examples Directory](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples).
-</Banner>
-
-### Pagination
-
-All Collections receive their own List View which displays a paginated list of documents that can be sorted and filtered. The pagination behavior of the List View can be customized on a per-Collection basis, and uses the same [Pagination](../queries/pagination) API that Payload provides.
-
-To configure pagination options, use the `admin.pagination` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
-
-```ts
-import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    // highlight-start
-    pagination: {
-      defaultLimit: 10,
-      limits: [10, 20, 50],
-    },
-    // highlight-end
-  },
-}
-```
-
-The following options are available:
-
-| Option         | Description                                                                                         |
-| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `defaultLimit` | Integer that specifies the default per-page limit that should be used. Defaults to 10.              |
-| `limits`       | Provide an array of integers to use as per-page options for admins to choose from in the List View. |
-
-### List Searchable Fields
-
-In the List View, there is a "search" box that allows you to quickly find a document through a simple text search. By default, it searches on the ID field. If defined, the `admin.useAsTitle` field is used. Or, you can explicitly define which fields to search based on the needs of your application.
-
-To define which fields should be searched, use the `admin.listSearchableFields` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
-
-```ts
-import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    // highlight-start
-    listSearchableFields: ['title', 'slug'],
-    // highlight-end
-  },
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  **Tip:**
-  If you are adding `listSearchableFields`, make sure you index each of these fields so your admin queries can remain performant.

----
-
-The Payload [Admin Panel](./overview) is designed to be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow for easy customization and full control over the UI. In order for Payload to support this level of customization, Payload provides a pattern for you to supply your own React components through your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview).
-
-All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end. Custom Components are available for nearly every part of the Admin Panel for extreme granularity and control.
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  **Note:**
-  Client Components continue to be fully supported. To use Client Components in your app, simply include the `use client` directive. Payload will automatically detect and remove all default, [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) before rendering your component. [More details](#client-components).
-</Banner>
-
-There are four main types of Custom Components in Payload:
-
-- [Root Components](#root-components)
-- [Collection Components](./collections#custom-components)
-- [Global Components](./globals#custom-components)
-- [Field Components](./fields#custom-components)
-
-To swap in your own Custom Component, first consult the list of available components, determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-components) accordingly.
-
-## Defining Custom Components
-
-As Payload compiles the Admin Panel, it checks your config for Custom Components. When detected, Payload either replaces its own default component with yours, or if none exists by default, renders yours outright. While are many places where Custom Components are supported in Payload, each is defined in the same way using [Component Paths](#component-paths).
-
-To add a Custom Component, point to its file path in your Payload Config:
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      logout: {
-        Button: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent' // highlight-line
-      }
-    }
-  },
-})
-```
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  **Note:**
-  All Custom Components can be either Server Components or Client Components, depending on the presence of the `use client` directive at the top of the file.
-</Banner>
-
-### Component Paths
-
-In order to ensure the Payload Config is fully Node.js compatible and as lightweight as possible, components are not directly imported into your config. Instead, they are identified by their file path for the Admin Panel to resolve on its own.
-
-Component Paths, by default, are relative to your project's base directory. This is either your current working directory, or the directory specified in `config.admin.baseDir`. To simplify Component Paths, you can also configure the base directory using the `admin.importMap.baseDir` property.
-
-Components using named exports are identified either by appending `#` followed by the export name, or using the `exportName` property. If the component is the default export, this can be omitted.
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
-import path from 'path'
-const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
-const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    importMap: {
-      baseDir: path.resolve(dirname, 'src'), // highlight-line
-    },
-    components: {
-      logout: {
-        Button: '/components/Logout#MyComponent' // highlight-line
-      }
-    }
-  },
-})
-```
-
-In this example, we set the base directory to the `src` directory, and omit the `/src/` part of our component path string.
-
-### Config Options
-
-While Custom Components are usually defined as a string, you can also pass in an object with additional options:
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      logout: {
-        // highlight-start
-        Button: {
-          path: '/src/components/Logout',
-          exportName: 'MyComponent',
-        }
-        // highlight-end
-      }
-    }
-  },
-})
-```
-
-The following options are available:
-
-| Property      | Description                                                                                                                   |
-|---------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-| **`clientProps`** | Props to be passed to the Custom Components if it's a Client Component. [More details](#custom-props).                         |
-| **`exportName`**  | Instead of declaring named exports using `#` in the component path, you can also omit them from `path` and pass them in here. |
-| **`path`**        | File path to the Custom Component. Named exports can be appended to the end of the path, separated by a `#`.                         |
-| **`serverProps`** | Props to be passed to the Custom Component if it's a Server Component. [More details](#custom-props).                         |
-
-For more details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components).
-
-### Import Map
-
-In order for Payload to make use of [Component Paths](#component-paths), an "Import Map" is automatically generated at `app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js`. This file contains every Custom Component in your config, keyed to their respective paths. When Payload needs to lookup a component, it uses this file to find the correct import.
-
-The Import Map is automatically regenerated at startup and whenever Hot Module Replacement (HMR) runs, or you can run `payload generate:importmap` to manually regenerate it.
-
-#### Custom Imports
-
-If needed, custom items can be appended onto the Import Map. This is mostly only relevant for plugin authors who need to add a custom import that is not referenced in a known location.
-
-To add a custom import to the Import Map, use the `admin.dependencies` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export default buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    // ...
-    dependencies: {
-      myTestComponent: { // myTestComponent is the key - can be anything
-        path: '/components/TestComponent.js#TestComponent',
-        type: 'component',
-        clientProps: {
-          test: 'hello',
-        },
-      },
-    },
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Building Custom Components
-
-All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end, among other things.
-
-### Default Props
-
-To make building Custom Components as easy as possible, Payload automatically provides common props, such as the [`payload`](../local-api/overview) class and the [`i18n`](../configuration/i18n) object. This means that when building Custom Components within the Admin Panel, you do not have to get these yourself.
-
-Here is an example:
-
-```tsx
-import React from 'react'
-
-const MyServerComponent = async ({
-  payload // highlight-line
-}) => {
-  const page = await payload.findByID({
-    collection: 'pages',
-    id: '123',
-  })
-
-  return (
-    <p>{page.title}</p>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-Each Custom Component receives the following props by default:
-
-| Prop                      | Description                                                                                           |
-| ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `payload`                 | The [Payload](../local-api/overview) class.                                                           |
-| `i18n`                    | The [i18n](../configuration/i18n) object.                                                                           |
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  **Reminder:**
-  All Custom Components also receive various other props that are specific component being rendered. See [Root Components](#root-components), [Collection Components](./collections#custom-components), [Global Components](./globals#custom-components), or [Field Components](./fields#custom-components) for a complete list of all default props per component.
-</Banner>
-
-### Custom Props
-
-To pass in custom props from the config, you can use either the `clientProps` or `serverProps` properties depending on whether your prop is [serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types), and whether your component is a Server or Client Component.
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: { // highlight-line
-    components: {
-      logout: {
-        Button: {
-          path: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent',
-          clientProps: {
-            myCustomProp: 'Hello, World!' // highlight-line
-          },
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  },
-})
-```
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React from 'react'
-
-export const MyComponent = ({ myCustomProp }: { myCustomProp: string }) => {
-  return (
-    <button>{myCustomProp}</button>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-### Client Components
-
-When [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components), it's still possible to use client-side code such as `useState` or the `window` object. To do this, simply add the `use client` directive at the top of your file. Payload will automatically detect and remove all default, [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) before rendering your component.
-
-```tsx
-'use client' // highlight-line
-import React, { useState } from 'react'
-
-export const MyClientComponent: React.FC = () => {
-  const [count, setCount] = useState(0)
-
-  return (
-    <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>
-      Clicked {count} times
-    </button>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  **Reminder:**
-  Client Components cannot be passed [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types). If you are rendering your Client Component _from within_ a Server Component, ensure that its props are serializable.
-</Banner>
-
-### Accessing the Payload Config
-
-From any Server Component, the [Payload Config](../configuration/overview) can be accessed directly from the `payload` prop:
-
-```tsx
-import React from 'react'
-
-export default async function MyServerComponent({
-  payload: {
-    config // highlight-line
-  }
-}) {
-  return (
-    <Link href={config.serverURL}>
-      Go Home
-    </Link>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-But, the Payload Config is [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) by design. It is full of custom validation functions, React components, etc. This means that the Payload Config, in its entirety, cannot be passed directly to Client Components.
-
-For this reason, Payload creates a Client Config and passes it into the Config Provider. This is a serializable version of the Payload Config that can be accessed from any Client Component via the [`useConfig`](./hooks#useconfig) hook:
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React from 'react'
-import { useConfig } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-
-export const MyClientComponent: React.FC = () => {
-  const { config: { serverURL } } = useConfig() // highlight-line
-
-  return (
-    <Link href={serverURL}>
-      Go Home
-    </Link>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  See [Using Hooks](#using-hooks) for more details.
-</Banner>
-
-All [Field Components](./fields) automatically receive their respective Field Config through props.
-
-```tsx
-import React from 'react'
-import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyClientFieldComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ field: { name } }) => {
-  return (
-    <p>
-      {`This field's name is ${name}`}
-    </p>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-### Getting the Current Language
-
-All Custom Components can support multiple languages to be consistent with Payload's [Internationalization](../configuration/i18n). To do this, first add your translation resources to the [I18n Config](../configuration/i18n).
-
-From any Server Component, you can translate resources using the `getTranslation` function from `@payloadcms/translations`. All Server Components automatically receive the `i18n` object as a prop by default.
-
-```tsx
-import React from 'react'
-import { getTranslation } from '@payloadcms/translations'
-
-export default async function MyServerComponent({ i18n }) {
-  const translatedTitle = getTranslation(myTranslation, i18n) // highlight-line
-
-  return (
-    <p>{translatedTitle}</p>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useTranslation` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React from 'react'
-import { useTranslation } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-
-export const MyClientComponent: React.FC = () => {
-  const { t, i18n } = useTranslation() // highlight-line
-
-  return (
-    <ul>
-      <li>{t('namespace1:key', { variable: 'value' })}</li>
-      <li>{t('namespace2:key', { variable: 'value' })}</li>
-      <li>{i18n.language}</li>
-    </ul>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
-</Banner>
-
-### Getting the Current Locale
-
-All [Custom Views](./views) can support multiple locales to be consistent with Payload's [Localization](../configuration/localization). They automatically receive the `locale` object as a prop by default. This can be used to scope API requests, etc.:
-
-```tsx
-import React from 'react'
-
-export default async function MyServerComponent({ payload, locale }) {
-  const localizedPage = await payload.findByID({
-    collection: 'pages',
-    id: '123',
-    locale,
-  })
-
-  return (
-    <p>{localizedPage.title}</p>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useLocale` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React from 'react'
-import { useLocale } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-
-const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
-  const locale = useLocale() // highlight-line
-
-  const trans = {

-### Using Hooks
-
-To make it easier to [build your Custom Components](#building-custom-components), you can use [Payload's built-in React Hooks](./hooks) in any Client Component. For example, you might want to interact with one of Payload's many React Contexts. To do this, you can one of the many hooks available depending on your needs.
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React from 'react'
-import { useDocumentInfo } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-
-export const MyClientComponent: React.FC = () => {
-  const { slug } = useDocumentInfo() // highlight-line
-
-  return (
-    <p>{`Entity slug: ${slug}`}</p>
-  )
-}
-```
-

-  See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
-</Banner>
-
-### Adding Styles
-
-Payload has a robust [CSS Library](./customizing-css) that you can use to style your Custom Components similarly to Payload's built-in styling. This will ensure that your Custom Components match the existing design system, and so that they automatically adapt to any theme changes that might occur.
-
-To apply custom styles, simply import your own `.css` or `.scss` file into your Custom Component:
-
-```tsx
-import './index.scss'
-
-export const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
-  return (
-    <div className="my-component">
-      My Custom Component
-    </div>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-Then to colorize your Custom Component's background, for example, you can use the following CSS:
-
-```scss
-.my-component {
-  background-color: var(--theme-elevation-500);
-}
-```
-
-Payload also exports its [SCSS](https://sass-lang.com) library for reuse which includes mixins, etc. To use this, simply import it as follows into your `.scss` file:
-
-```scss
-@import '~@payloadcms/ui/scss';
-
-.my-component {
-  @include mid-break {
-    background-color: var(--theme-elevation-900);
-  }
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  **Note:**
-  You can also drill into Payload's own component styles, or easily apply global, app-wide CSS. More on that [here](./customizing-css).

-
-## Root Components
-
-Root Components are those that effect the [Admin Panel](./overview) generally, such as the logo or the main nav.
-
-To override Root Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export default buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    // highlight-start
-    components: {
-      // ...
-    },
-    // highlight-end
-  },
-})
-```
-
-_For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components)._

-### Custom Providers
-
-As you add more and more Custom Components to your [Admin Panel](./overview), you may find it helpful to add additional [React Context](https://react.dev/learn/scaling-up-with-reducer-and-context)(s). Payload allows you to inject your own context providers in your app so you can export your own custom hooks, etc.
-
-To add a Custom Provider, use the `admin.components.providers` property in your [Payload Config](../getting-started/overview):
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export default buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      providers: ['/path/to/MyProvider'], // highlight-line
-    },
-  },
-})
-```
-
-Then build your Custom Provider as follows:
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React, { createContext, useContext } from 'react'
-
-const MyCustomContext = React.createContext(myCustomValue)
-
-export const MyProvider: React.FC = ({ children }) => {
-  return (
-    <MyCustomContext.Provider value={myCustomValue}>
-      {children}
-    </MyCustomContext.Provider>
-  )
-}
-
-export const useMyCustomContext = () => useContext(MyCustomContext)
-```
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  **Reminder:**React Context exists only within Client Components. This means they must include the `use client` directive at the top of their files and cannot contain server-only code. To use a Server Component here, simply _wrap_ your Client Component with it.

-[Fields](../fields/overview) within the [Admin Panel](./overview) can be endlessly customized in their appearance and behavior without affecting their underlying data structure. Fields are designed to withstand heavy modification or even complete replacement through the use of [Custom Field Components](#custom-components), [Conditional Logic](#conditional-logic), [Custom Validations](../fields/overview#validation), and more.
-
-For example, your app might need to render a specific interface that Payload does not inherently support, such as a color picker. To do this, you could replace the default [Text Field](../fields/text) input with your own user-friendly component that formats the data into a valid color value.

-  **Tip:**
-  Don't see a built-in field type that you need? Build it! Using a combination of [Field Validations](../fields/overview#validation)

-| **`position`**          | Specify if the field should be rendered in the sidebar by defining `position: 'sidebar'`.                                                                                                                                        |
-| **`width`**             | Restrict the width of a field. You can pass any string-based value here, be it pixels, percentages, etc. This property is especially useful when fields are nested within a `Row` type where they can be organized horizontally. |
-| **`style`**             | [CSS Properties](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS) to inject into the root element of the field.                                                                                                                 |

-| **`disableListFilter`** | Set `disableListFilter` to `true` to prevent fields from appearing in the list view filter options.                                                                                                                              |
-| **`hidden`**            | Will transform the field into a `hidden` input type. Its value will still submit with requests in the Admin Panel, but the field itself will not be visible to editors.                                                          |

-## Field Descriptions
-
-Field Descriptions are used to provide additional information to the editor about a field, such as special instructions. Their placement varies from field to field, but typically are displayed with subtle style differences beneath the field inputs.
-
-A description can be configured in three ways:
-
-  - As a string.
-  - As a function which returns a string. [More details](#description-functions).
-  - As a React component. [More details](#description).
-
-To add a Custom Description to a field, use the `admin.description` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollectionConfig: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  fields: [
-    // ...
-    {
-      name: 'myField',
-      type: 'text',
-      admin: {
-        description: 'Hello, world!' // highlight-line
-      },
-    },
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  **Reminder:**
-  To replace the Field Description with a [Custom Component](./components), use the `admin.components.Description` property. [More details](#description).
-</Banner>
-
-#### Description Functions
-
-Custom Descriptions can also be defined as a function. Description Functions are executed on the server and can be used to format simple descriptions based on the user's current [Locale](../configuration/localization).
-
-To add a Description Function to a field, set the `admin.description` property to a _function_ in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollectionConfig: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  fields: [
-    // ...
-    {
-      name: 'myField',
-      type: 'text',
-      admin: {
-        description: ({ t }) => `${t('Hello, world!')}` // highlight-line
-      },
-    },
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-All Description Functions receive the following arguments:
-
-| Argument       | Description                                                      |
-| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **`t`**        | The `t` function used to internationalize the Admin Panel. [More details](../configuration/i18n) |
-
-<Banner type="info">
-  **Note:**
-  If you need to subscribe to live updates within your form, use a Description Component instead. [More details](#description).
-</Banner>
-
-## Conditional Logic
-
-You can show and hide fields based on what other fields are doing by utilizing conditional logic on a field by field basis. The `condition` property on a field's admin config accepts a function which takes three arguments:
-
-- `data` - the entire document's data that is currently being edited
-- `siblingData` - only the fields that are direct siblings to the field with the condition
-- `{ user }` - the final argument is an object containing the currently authenticated user
-
-The `condition` function should return a boolean that will control if the field should be displayed or not.
-
-**Example:**
-
-```ts
-{
-  fields: [
-    {
-      name: 'enableGreeting',
-      type: 'checkbox',
-      defaultValue: false,
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'greeting',
-      type: 'text',
-      admin: {
-        // highlight-start
-        condition: (data, siblingData, { user }) => {
-          if (data.enableGreeting) {
-            return true
-          } else {
-            return false
-          }
-        },
-        // highlight-end
-      },
-    },
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-## Custom Components
-
-Within the [Admin Panel](./overview), fields are represented in three distinct places:
-
-- [Field](#field) - The actual form field rendered in the Edit View.
-- [Cell](#cell) - The table cell component rendered in the List View.
-- [Filter](#filter) - The filter component rendered in the List View.
-
-To swap in Field Components with your own, use the `admin.components` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts

-### Field
-
-The Field Component is the actual form field rendered in the Edit View. This is the input that user's will interact with when editing a document.
-
-To swap in your own Field Component, use the `admin.components.Field` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const CollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  fields: [
-    // ...
-    {
-      // ...
-      admin: {
-        components: {
-          Field: '/path/to/MyFieldComponent', // highlight-line
-        },
-      },
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-_For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components)._
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  Instead of replacing the entire Field Component, you can alternately replace or slot-in only specific parts by using the [`Label`](#label), [`Error`](#error), [`beforeInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput), and [`afterInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput) properties.

-
-In addition to the above props, all Server Components will also receive the following props:
-
-| Property          | Description                                                                   |

-
-#### Sending and receiving values from the form
-
-When swapping out the `Field` component, you are responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself.
-
-To do so, import the [`useField`](./hooks#usefield) hook from `@payloadcms/ui` and use it to manage the field's value:
-
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import { useField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-
-export const CustomTextField: React.FC = () => {
-  const { value, setValue } = useField() // highlight-line
-
-  return (
-    <input
-      onChange={(e) => setValue(e.target.value)}
-      value={value}
-    />
-  )
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  For a complete list of all available React hooks, see the [Payload React Hooks](./hooks) documentation. For additional help, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
-</Banner>
-
-#### TypeScript
-
-When building Custom Field Components, you can import the client field props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to prepend the field type onto the target type, i.e. `TextFieldClientComponent`:
-
-```tsx
-import type {
-  TextFieldClientComponent,
-  TextFieldServerComponent,
-  TextFieldClientProps,
-  TextFieldServerProps,
-  // ...and so on for each Field Type
-} from 'payload'
-```
-
-### Cell
-
-The Cell Component is rendered in the table of the List View. It represents the value of the field when displayed in a table cell.
-
-To swap in your own Cell Component, use the `admin.components.Cell` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { Field } from 'payload'
-
-export const myField: Field = {
-  name: 'myField',
-  type: 'text',
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      Cell: '/path/to/MyCustomCellComponent', // highlight-line
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-All Cell Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field), plus the following:
-
-| Property         | Description                                                       |
-| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **`link`** | A boolean representing whether this cell should be wrapped in a link. |
-| **`onClick`** | A function that is called when the cell is clicked. |
-
-For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
-
-### Filter
-
-The Filter Component is the actual input element rendered within the "Filter By" dropdown of the List View used to represent this field when building filters.
-
-To swap in your own Filter Component, use the `admin.components.Filter` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { Field } from 'payload'
-
-export const myField: Field = {
-  name: 'myField',
-  type: 'text',
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      Filter: '/path/to/MyCustomFilterComponent', // highlight-line
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-All Custom Filter Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
-
-For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
-
-### Label
-
-The Label Component is rendered anywhere a field needs to be represented by a label. This is typically used in the Edit View, but can also be used in the List View and elsewhere.
-
-To swap in your own Label Component, use the `admin.components.Label` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { Field } from 'payload'
-
-export const myField: Field = {
-  name: 'myField',
-  type: 'text',
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      Label: '/path/to/MyCustomLabelComponent', // highlight-line
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-All Custom Label Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
-
-For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
-
-#### TypeScript
-
-When building Custom Label Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Label Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to append `LabelServerComponent` or `LabelClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent`.
-
-```tsx
-import type {
-  TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
-  TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
-  // ...and so on for each Field Type
-} from 'payload'
-```
-
-### Description
-
-Alternatively to the [Description Property](#field-descriptions), you can also use a [Custom Component](./components) as the Field Description. This can be useful when you need to provide more complex feedback to the user, such as rendering dynamic field values or other interactive elements.
-
-To add a Description Component to a field, use the `admin.components.Description` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollectionConfig: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  fields: [
-    // ...
-    {
-      name: 'myField',
-      type: 'text',
-      admin: {
-        components: {
-          Description: '/path/to/MyCustomDescriptionComponent', // highlight-line
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-All Custom Description Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
-
-For details on how to build a Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
-
-#### TypeScript
-
-When building Custom Description Components, you can import the component props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Description Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to append `DescriptionServerComponent` or `DescriptionClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent`.
-
-```tsx
-import type {
-  TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
-  TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
-  // And so on for each Field Type
-} from 'payload'
-```
-
-### Error
-
-The Error Component is rendered when a field fails validation. It is typically displayed beneath the field input in a visually-compelling style.
-
-To swap in your own Error Component, use the `admin.components.Error` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { Field } from 'payload'
-
-export const myField: Field = {
-  name: 'myField',
-  type: 'text',
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      Error: '/path/to/MyCustomErrorComponent', // highlight-line
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-All Error Components receive the [Default Field Component Props](#field).
-
-For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
-
-#### TypeScript
-
-When building Custom Error Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Error Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to append `ErrorServerComponent` or `ErrorClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldErrorClientComponent`.
-
-```tsx
-import type {
-  TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
-  TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
-  // And so on for each Field Type
-} from 'payload'
-```
-
-### afterInput and beforeInput
-
-With these properties you can add multiple components _before_ and _after_ the input element, as their name suggests. This is useful when you need to render additional elements alongside the field without replacing the entire field component.
-
-To add components before and after the input element, use the `admin.components.beforeInput` and `admin.components.afterInput` properties in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollectionConfig: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  fields: [
-    // ...
-    {
-      name: 'myField',
-      type: 'text',
-      admin: {
-        components: {
-          // highlight-start
-          beforeInput: ['/path/to/MyCustomComponent'],
-          afterInput: ['/path/to/MyOtherCustomComponent'],
-          // highlight-end
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-All `afterInput` and `beforeInput` Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
-

-
-The behavior of [Globals](../configuration/globals) within the [Admin Panel](./overview) can be fully customized to fit the needs of your application. This includes grouping or hiding their navigation links, adding [Custom Components](./components), setting page metadata, and more.
-
-To configure Admin Options for Globals, use the `admin` property in your Global Config:
-
-```ts
-import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyGlobal: GlobalConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: { // highlight-line
-    // ...
-  },
-}
-```
-
-## Admin Options
-
-The following options are available:
-
-| Option            | Description                                                                                                                       |

-
-### Custom Components
-
-Globals can set their own [Custom Components](./components) which only apply to [Global](../configuration/globals)-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](./overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
-
-To override Global Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedGlobalConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyGlobal: SanitizedGlobalConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: { // highlight-line
-      // ...
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-The following options are available:

-### Preview
-
-It is possible to display a Preview Button within the Edit View of the Admin Panel. This will allow editors to visit the frontend of your app the corresponds to the document they are actively editing. This way they can preview the latest, potentially unpublished changes.
-
-To configure the Preview Button, set the `admin.preview` property to a function in your Global Config:
-
-```ts
-import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MainMenu: GlobalConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    // highlight-start
-    preview: (doc, { locale }) => {
-      if (doc?.slug) {
-        return `/${doc.slug}?locale=${locale}`
-      }
-
-      return null
-    },
-    // highlight-end
-  },
-}
-```
-
-The preview function receives two arguments:
-

+##### Prevent Crawling
+
+While setting meta tags via `admin.meta.robots` can prevent search engines from _indexing_ web pages, it does not prevent them from being _crawled_.
+
+To prevent your pages from being crawled altogether, add a `robots.txt` file to your root directory.

+
+Preview is a feature that allows you to generate a direct link to your front-end application. When enabled, a "preview" button will appear on the Edit View within the [Admin Panel](./overview) with an href pointing to the URL you provide. This will provide your editors with a quick way of navigating to the front-end application where that Document's data is represented. Otherwise, they'd have to determine that URL themselves which is not always straightforward especially in complex apps.
+
+The Preview feature can also be used to achieve something known as "Draft Preview". With Draft Preview, you can navigate to your front-end application and enter "draft mode", where your queries are modified to fetch draft content instead of published content. This is useful for seeing how your content will look before being published. [More details](#draft-preview).
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  **Note:**
+  Preview is different than [Live Preview](../live-preview/overview). Live Preview loads your app within an iframe and renders it in the Admin Panel allowing you to see changes in real-time. Preview, on the other hand, allows you to generate a direct link to your front-end application.
+</Banner>
+
+To add Preview, pass a function to the `admin.preview` property in any [Collection Config](../configuration/collections#admin-options) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals#admin-options):
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const Pages: CollectionConfig = {
+  slug: 'pages',
+  admin: {
+    preview: ({ slug }) => `http://localhost:3000/${slug}`,
+  },
+  fields: [
+    {
+      name: 'slug',
+      type: 'text',
+    }
+  ],
+}
+```
+
+## Options
+
+The `preview` function resolves to a string that points to your front-end application with additional URL parameters. This can be an absolute URL or a relative path, and can run async if needed.
+
+The following arguments are provided to the `preview` function:
+
+| Path               | Description                                                                                                       |
+| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`doc`**         | The data of the Document being edited. This includes changes that have not yet been saved.                         |
+| **`options`**     | An object with additional properties.                                                                              |
+
+The `options` object contains the following properties:
+
+| Path               | Description                                                                                                       |
+| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`locale`**      | The current locale of the Document being edited.                                                                   |
+| **`req`**         | The Payload Request object.                                                                                        |
+| **`token`**       | The JWT token of the currently authenticated in user.                                                              |
+
+If your application requires a fully qualified URL, such as within deploying to Vercel Preview Deployments, you can use the `req` property to build this URL:
+
+```ts
+preview: (doc, { req }) => `${req.protocol}//${req.host}/${doc.slug}` // highlight-line
+```
+
+## Draft Preview
+
+The Preview feature can be used to achieve "Draft Preview". After clicking the preview button from the Admin Panel, you can enter into "draft mode" within your front-end application. This will allow you to adjust your page queries to include the `draft: true` param. When this param is present on the request, Payload will send back a draft document as opposed to a published one based on the document's `_status` field.
+
+To enter draft mode, the URL provided to the `preview` function can point to a custom endpoint in your front-end application that sets a cookie or session variable to indicate that draft mode is enabled. This is framework specific, so the mechanisms here very from framework to framework although the underlying concept is the same.
+
+### Next.js
+
+If you're using Next.js, you can do the following code to enter [Draft Mode](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/configuring/draft-mode).
+
+#### Step 1: Format the Preview URL
+
+First, format your `admin.preview` function to point to a custom endpoint that you'll open on your front-end. This URL should include a few key query search params:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const Pages: CollectionConfig = {
+  slug: 'pages',
+  admin: {
+    preview: ({ slug, collection }) => {
+      const encodedParams = new URLSearchParams({
+        slug,
+        collection,
+        path: `/${slug}`,
+        previewSecret: process.env.PREVIEW_SECRET || ''
+      })
+
+      return `/preview?${encodedParams.toString()}` // highlight-line
+    }
+  },
+  fields: [
+    {
+      name: 'slug',
+      type: 'text',
+    }
+  ],
+}
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Create the Preview Route
+
+Then, create an API route that verifies the preview secret, authenticates the user, and enters draft mode:
+
+`/app/preview/route.ts`
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionSlug, PayloadRequest } from 'payload'
+import { getPayload } from 'payload'
+
+import { draftMode } from 'next/headers'
+import { redirect } from 'next/navigation'
+
+import configPromise from '@payload-config'
+
+export async function GET(
+  req: {
+    cookies: {
+      get: (name: string) => {
+        value: string
+      }
+    }
+  } & Request,
+): Promise<Response> {
+  const payload = await getPayload({ config: configPromise })
+
+  const { searchParams } = new URL(req.url)
+
+  const path = searchParams.get('path')
+  const collection = searchParams.get('collection') as CollectionSlug
+  const slug = searchParams.get('slug')
+  const previewSecret = searchParams.get('previewSecret')
+
+  if (previewSecret !== process.env.PREVIEW_SECRET) {
+    return new Response('You are not allowed to preview this page', { status: 403 })
+  }
+
+  if (!path || !collection || !slug) {
+    return new Response('Insufficient search params', { status: 404 })
+  }
+
+  if (!path.startsWith('/')) {
+    return new Response('This endpoint can only be used for relative previews', { status: 500 })
+  }
+
+  let user
+
+  try {
+    user = await payload.auth({
+      req: req as unknown as PayloadRequest,
+      headers: req.headers,
+    })
+  } catch (error) {
+    payload.logger.error({ err: error }, 'Error verifying token for live preview')
+    return new Response('You are not allowed to preview this page', { status: 403 })
+  }
+
+  const draft = await draftMode()
+
+  if (!user) {
+    draft.disable()
+    return new Response('You are not allowed to preview this page', { status: 403 })
+  }
+
+  // You can add additional checks here to see if the user is allowed to preview this page
+
+  draft.enable()
+
+  redirect(path)
+}
+```
+
+#### Step 3: Query Draft Content
+
+Finally, in your front-end application, you can detect draft mode and adjust your queries to include drafts:
+
+`/app/[slug]/page.tsx`
+
+```ts
+export default async function Page({ params: paramsPromise }) {
+  const { slug = 'home' } = await paramsPromise
+
+  const { isEnabled: isDraftMode } = await draftMode()
+
+  const payload = await getPayload({ config })
+
+  const page = await payload.find({
+    collection: 'pages',
+    depth: 0,
+    draft: isDraftMode, // highlight-line
+    limit: 1,
+    overrideAccess: isDraftMode,
+    where: {
+      slug: {
+        equals: slug,
+      },
+    },
+  })?.then(({ docs }) => docs?.[0])
+
+  if (page === null) {
+    return notFound()
+  }
+
+  return (
+    <main>
+      <h1>{page?.title}</h1>
+    </main>
+  )
+}
+```

+
+## usePayloadAPI
+
+The `usePayloadAPI` hook is a useful tool for making REST API requests to your Payload instance and handling responses reactively. It allows you to fetch and interact with data while automatically updating when parameters change.
+
+This hook returns an array with two elements:
+
+1. An object containing the API response.
+2. A set of methods to modify request parameters.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import { usePayloadAPI } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
+  // Fetch data from a collection item using its ID
+  const [{ data, isError, isLoading }, { setParams }] = usePayloadAPI(
+    '/api/posts/123',
+    { initialParams: { depth: 1 } }
+  )
+
+  if (isLoading) return <p>Loading...</p>
+  if (isError) return <p>Error occurred while fetching data.</p>
+
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <h1>{data?.title}</h1>
+      <button onClick={() => setParams({ cacheBust: Date.now() })}>
+        Refresh Data
+      </button>
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+**Arguments:**
+
+| Property      | Description                                                                                     |
+| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`url`**     | The API endpoint to fetch data from. Relative URLs will be prefixed with the Payload API route. |
+| **`options`** | An object containing initial request parameters and initial state configuration.                |
+
+The `options` argument accepts the following properties:
+
+| Property            | Description                                                                                         |
+| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`initialData`**   | Uses this data instead of making an initial request. If not provided, the request runs immediately. |
+| **`initialParams`** | Defines the initial parameters to use in the request. Defaults to an empty object `{}`.             |
+
+**Returned Value:**
+
+The first item in the returned array is an object containing the following properties:
+
+| Property        | Description                                              |
+| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`data`**      | The API response data.                                   |
+| **`isError`**   | A boolean indicating whether the request failed.         |
+| **`isLoading`** | A boolean indicating whether the request is in progress. |
+
+The second item is an object with the following methods:
+
+| Property        | Description                                                 |
+| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`setParams`** | Updates request parameters, triggering a refetch if needed. |
+
+#### Updating Data
+
+The `setParams` function can be used to update the request and trigger a refetch:
+
+```tsx
+setParams({ depth: 2 })
+```
+
+This is useful for scenarios where you need to trigger another fetch regardless of the `url` argument changing.
+
+## useRouteTransition
+
+Route transitions are useful in showing immediate visual feedback to the user when navigating between pages. This is especially useful on slow networks when navigating to data heavy or process intensive pages.
+
+By default, any instances of `Link` from `@payloadcms/ui` will trigger route transitions dy default.
+
+```tsx
+import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+const MyComponent = () => {
+  return (
+    <Link href="/somewhere">
+      Go Somewhere
+    </Link>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+You can also trigger route transitions programmatically, such as when using `router.push` from `next/router`. To do this, wrap your function calls with the `startRouteTransition` method provided by the `useRouteTransition` hook.
+
+```ts
+'use client'
+import React, { useCallback } from 'react'
+import { useTransition } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+import { useRouter } from 'next/navigation'
+
+const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
+  const router = useRouter()
+  const { startRouteTransition } = useRouteTransition()
+
+  const redirectSomewhere = useCallback(() => {
+    startRouteTransition(() => router.push('/somewhere'))
+  }, [startRouteTransition, router])
+
+  // ...
+}
+```

-
-Views are the individual pages that make up the [Admin Panel](./overview), such as the Dashboard, List, and Edit views. One of the most powerful ways to customize the Admin Panel is to create Custom Views. These are [Custom Components](./components) that can either replace built-in views or can be entirely new.
-
-There are four types of views within the Admin Panel:
-
-- [Root Views](#root-views)
-- [Collection Views](#collection-views)
-- [Global Views](#global-views)
-- [Document Views](#document-views)
-
-To swap in your own Custom View, first consult the list of available components, determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-views) accordingly.
-
-## Root Views
-
-Root Views are the main views of the [Admin Panel](./overview). These are views that are scoped directly under the `/admin` route, such as the Dashboard or Account views.
-
-To swap Root Views with your own, or to [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-views), use the `admin.components.views` property of your root [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      views: {
-        customView: {
-          Component: '/path/to/MyCustomView#MyCustomView', // highlight-line
-          path: '/my-custom-view',
-        }
-      },
-    },
-  },
-})
-```
-
-Your Custom Root Views can optionally use one of the templates that Payload provides. The most common of these is the Default Template which provides the basic layout and navigation. Here is an example of what that might look like:
-
-```tsx
-import type { AdminViewProps } from 'payload'
-
-import { DefaultTemplate } from '@payloadcms/next/templates'
-import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-import React from 'react'
-
-export const MyCustomView: React.FC<AdminViewProps> = ({
-  initPageResult,
-  params,
-  searchParams,
-}) => {
-  return (
-    <DefaultTemplate
-      i18n={initPageResult.req.i18n}
-      locale={initPageResult.locale}
-      params={params}
-      payload={initPageResult.req.payload}
-      permissions={initPageResult.permissions}
-      searchParams={searchParams}
-      user={initPageResult.req.user || undefined}
-      visibleEntities={initPageResult.visibleEntities}
-    >
-      <Gutter>
-        <h1>Custom Default Root View</h1>
-
-        <p>This view uses the Default Template.</p>
-      </Gutter>
-    </DefaultTemplate>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](#building-custom-views)._
-
-The following options are available:
-
-| Property        | Description                                                                   |
-| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **`account`**   | The Account view is used to show the currently logged in user's Account page. |
-| **`dashboard`** | The main landing page of the [Admin Panel](./overview).                                     |
-
-For more granular control, pass a configuration object instead. Payload exposes the following properties for each view:
-

-
-### Adding New Views
-
-To add a _new_ views to the [Admin Panel](./overview), simply add your own key to the `views` object with at least a `path` and `Component` property. For example:
-
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      views: {
-        // highlight-start
-        myCustomView: {
-        // highlight-end
-          Component: '/path/to/MyCustomView#MyCustomViewComponent',
-          path: '/my-custom-view',
-        },
-      },
-    },
-  },
-})
-```
-
-The above example shows how to add a new [Root View](#root-views), but the pattern is the same for [Collection Views](#collection-views), [Global Views](#global-views), and [Document Views](#document-views). For help on how to build your own Custom Views, see [Building Custom Views](#building-custom-views).
-
-<Banner type="warning">
-  **Note:**
-
-  Routes are cascading, so unless explicitly given the `exact` property, they will
-  match on URLs that simply _start_ with the route's path. This is helpful when creating catch-all
-  routes in your application. Alternatively, define your nested route _before_ your parent
-  route.

-## Collection Views
-
-Collection Views are views that are scoped under the `/collections` route, such as the Collection List and Document Edit views.
-
-To swap out Collection Views with your own, or to [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-views), use the `admin.components.views` property of your [Collection Config](../collections/overview):

-
-export const MyCollectionConfig: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...

-
-Global Views are views that are scoped under the `/globals` route, such as the Document Edit View.

-
-Document Views are views that are scoped under the `/collections/:collectionSlug/:id` or the `/globals/:globalSlug` route, such as the Edit View or the API View. All Document Views keep their overall structure across navigation changes, such as their title and tabs, and replace only the content below.

-| **`root`**        | The Root View overrides all other nested views and routes. No document controls or tabs are rendered when this key is set.                                      |
-| **`default`**     | The Default View is the primary view in which your document is edited. It is rendered within the "Edit" tab.                                                    |
-| **`versions`**    | The Versions View is used to navigate the version history of a single document. It is rendered within the "Versions" tab. [More details](../versions/overview). |

-| **`api`**         | The API View is used to display the REST API JSON response for a given document. It is rendered within the "API" tab.                                           |
-| **`livePreview`** | The LivePreview view is used to display the Live Preview interface. It is rendered within the "Live Preview" tab. [More details](../live-preview/overview).     |
-
-### Document Tabs
-
-Each Document View can be given a new tab in the Edit View, if desired. Tabs are highly configurable, from as simple as changing the label to swapping out the entire component, they can be modified in any way. To add or customize tabs in the Edit View, use the `tab` key:
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollection: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  slug: 'my-collection',
-  admin: {
-    components: {

-## Building Custom Views
-
-Custom Views are just [Custom Components](./components) rendered at the page-level. To understand how to build Custom Views, first review the [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components) guide. Once you have a Custom Component ready, you can use it as a Custom View.
-
-```ts
-import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyCollectionConfig: SanitizedCollectionConfig = {
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      views: {
-        edit: {
-          Component: '/path/to/MyCustomView' // highlight-line
-        }
-      },
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-### Default Props
-
-Your Custom Views will be provided with the following props:
-

+## Admin Options
 
-You can customize the way that the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) behaves on a Collection-by-Collection basis. To learn more, go to the [Collection Admin Options](../admin/collections) documentation.
+The behavior of Collections within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) can be fully customized to fit the needs of your application. This includes grouping or hiding their navigation links, adding [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview), selecting which fields to display in the List View, and more.
+
+To configure Admin Options for Collections, use the `admin` property in your Collection Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: { // highlight-line
+    // ...
+  },
+}
+```
+
+The following options are available:

+### Custom Components
+
+Collections can set their own [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview) which only apply to Collection-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
+
+To override Collection Components, use the `admin.components` property in your Collection Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: { // highlight-line

+### Pagination
+
+All Collections receive their own List View which displays a paginated list of documents that can be sorted and filtered. The pagination behavior of the List View can be customized on a per-Collection basis, and uses the same [Pagination](../queries/pagination) API that Payload provides.
+
+To configure pagination options, use the `admin.pagination` property in your Collection Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    pagination: {
+      defaultLimit: 10,
+      limits: [10, 20, 50],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+}
+```
+
+The following options are available:
+
+| Option         | Description                                                                                         |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `defaultLimit` | Integer that specifies the default per-page limit that should be used. Defaults to 10.              |
+| `limits`       | Provide an array of integers to use as per-page options for admins to choose from in the List View. |
+
+### List Searchable Fields
+
+In the List View, there is a "search" box that allows you to quickly find a document through a simple text search. By default, it searches on the ID field. If defined, the `admin.useAsTitle` field is used. Or, you can explicitly define which fields to search based on the needs of your application.
+
+To define which fields should be searched, use the `admin.listSearchableFields` property in your Collection Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    listSearchableFields: ['title', 'slug'],
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  **Tip:**
+  If you are adding `listSearchableFields`, make sure you index each of these fields so your admin queries can remain performant.

 _* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
 
+#### Filter Available Options
+In some projects you may want to filter the available locales shown in the admin UI selector. You can do this by providing a `filterAvailableLocales` function in your Payload Config. This is called on the server side and is passed the array of locales. This means that you can determine what locales are visible in the localizer selection menu at the top of the admin panel. You could do this per user, or implement a function that scopes these to tenants and more. Here is an example using request headers in a multi-tenant application:
+
+```ts
+// ... rest of payload config
+localization: {
+  defaultLocale: 'en',
+  locales: ['en', 'es'],
+  filterAvailableLocales: async ({ req, locales }) => {
+    if (getTenantFromCookie(req.headers, 'text')) {
+      const fullTenant = await req.payload.findByID({
+        id: getTenantFromCookie(req.headers, 'text') as string,
+        collection: 'tenants',
+        req,
+      })
+      if (fullTenant && fullTenant.supportedLocales?.length) {
+        return locales.filter((locale) => {
+          return fullTenant.supportedLocales?.includes(locale.code as 'en' | 'es')
+        })
+      }
+    }
+    return locales
+  },
+}
+```
+
+Since the filtering happens at the root level of the application and its result is not calculated every time you navigate to a new page, you may want to call `router.refresh` in a custom component that watches when values that affect the result change. In the example above, you would want to do this when `supportedLocales` changes on the tenant document.

 Payload localization works on a field-by-field basis. As you can nest fields within other fields, you could potentially nest a localized field within a localized field—but this would be redundant and unnecessary. There would be no reason to define a localized field within a localized parent field, given that the entire data structure from the parent field onward would be localized.
 
 By default, Payload will remove the `localized: true` property from sub-fields if a parent field is localized. Set this compatibility flag to `true` only if you have an existing Payload MongoDB database from pre-3.0, and you have nested localized fields that you would like to maintain without migrating.

+Using the `bin` configuration property, you can inject your own scripts to `npx payload`.

+Step 1: create `seed.ts` file in the same folder with `payload.config.ts` with:
+
+```ts
+import type { SanitizedConfig } from 'payload'
+
+import payload from 'payload'
+
+// Script must define a "script" function export that accepts the sanitized config
+export const script = async (config: SanitizedConfig) => {

+  await payload.create({ collection: 'pages', data: { title: 'my title' } })
+  payload.logger.info('Succesffully seeded!')
+  process.exit(0)

+
+Step 2: add the `seed` script to `bin`:
+```ts
+export default buildConfig({
+  bin: [
+    {
+      scriptPath: path.resolve(dirname, 'seed.ts'),
+      key: 'seed',
+    },

+
+Views are the individual pages that make up the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), such as the Dashboard, [List View](./list-view), and [Edit View](./edit-view). One of the most powerful ways to customize the Admin Panel is to create Custom Views. These are [Custom Components](./overview) that can either replace built-in views or be entirely new.
+
+There are four types of views within the Admin Panel:
+
+- [Root Views](#root-views)
+- [Collection Views](#collection-views)
+- [Global Views](#global-views)
+- [Document Views](./document-views)
+
+To swap in your own Custom View, first determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, consult the list of available components, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-views) accordingly.
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Replacing Views
+
+To customize views, use the `admin.components.views` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview). This is an object with keys for each view you want to customize. Each key corresponds to the view you want to customize.
+
+The exact list of available keys depends on the scope of the view you are customizing, depending on whether it's a [Root View](#root-views), [Collection View](#collection-views), or [Global View](#global-views). Regardless of the scope, the principles are the same.
+
+Here is an example of how to swap out a built-in view:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      views: {
+        // highlight-start
+        dashboard: {
+          Component: '/path/to/MyCustomDashboard',
+        }
+        // highlight-end
+      }
+    }
+  }
+})
+```
+
+For more granular control, pass a configuration object instead. Payload exposes the following properties for each view:
+
+| Property           | Description                                                                                                                                                                                |
+| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `Component` * | Pass in the component path that should be rendered when a user navigates to this route.                                                                                                         |
+| `path` *      | Any valid URL path or array of paths that [`path-to-regexp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/path-to-regex) understands.                                                                     |
+| `exact`        | Boolean. When true, will only match if the path matches the `usePathname()` exactly.                                                                                                     |
+| `strict`       | When true, a path that has a trailing slash will only match a `location.pathname` with a trailing slash. This has no effect when there are additional URL segments in the pathname. |
+| `sensitive`    | When true, will match if the path is case sensitive.|
+| `meta`         | Page metadata overrides to apply to this view within the Admin Panel. [More details](./metadata).                                                                           |
+
+_* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
+
+### Adding New Views
+
+To add a _new_ view to the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), simply add your own key to the `views` object. This is true for all view scopes.
+
+New views require at least the `Component` and `path` properties:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      views: {
+        // highlight-start
+        myCustomView: {
+          Component: '/path/to/MyCustomView#MyCustomViewComponent',
+          path: '/my-custom-view',
+        },
+        // highlight-end
+      },
+    },
+  },
+})
+```
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  **Note:**
+  Routes are cascading, so unless explicitly given the `exact` property, they will
+  match on URLs that simply _start_ with the route's path. This is helpful when creating catch-all
+  routes in your application. Alternatively, define your nested route _before_ your parent
+  route.

+## Building Custom Views
+
+Custom Views are simply [Custom Components](./overview) rendered at the page-level. Custom Views can either [replace existing views](#replacing-views) or [add entirely new ones](#adding-new-views). The process is generally the same regardless of the type of view you are customizing.
+
+To understand how to build Custom Views, first review the [Building Custom Components](./overview#building-custom-components) guide. Once you have a Custom Component ready, you can use it as a Custom View.
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      views: {
+        // highlight-start
+        edit: {
+          Component: '/path/to/MyCustomView' // highlight-line
+        }
+        // highlight-end
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### Default Props
+
+Your Custom Views will be provided with the following props:
+
+| Prop                      | Description                                                                                                                        |
+| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `initPageResult`      | An object containing `req`, `payload`, `permissions`, etc.                                                                         |

+| `params`              | An object containing the [Dynamic Route Parameters](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/routing/dynamic-routes). |
+| `searchParams`        | An object containing the [Search Parameters](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Learn/Common_questions/What_is_a_URL#parameters).  |
+| `doc`                 | The document being edited. Only available in Document Views. [More details](./document-views).                                      |
+| `i18n`           |    The [i18n](../configuration/i18n) object.                                        |

+<Banner type="success">
+  **Tip:**
+  For consistent layout and navigation, you may want to wrap your Custom View with one of the built-in [Template](./overview#templates).
+</Banner>
+
+### View Templates
+
+Your Custom Root Views can optionally use one of the templates that Payload provides. The most common of these is the Default Template which provides the basic layout and navigation.
+
+Here is an example of how to use the Default Template in your Custom View:
+
+```tsx
+import type { AdminViewServerProps } from 'payload'
+
+import { DefaultTemplate } from '@payloadcms/next/templates'
+import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+import React from 'react'
+
+export function MyCustomView({
+  initPageResult,
+  params,
+  searchParams,
+}: AdminViewServerProps) {
+  return (
+    <DefaultTemplate
+      i18n={initPageResult.req.i18n}
+      locale={initPageResult.locale}
+      params={params}
+      payload={initPageResult.req.payload}
+      permissions={initPageResult.permissions}
+      searchParams={searchParams}
+      user={initPageResult.req.user || undefined}
+      visibleEntities={initPageResult.visibleEntities}
+    >
+      <Gutter>
+        <h1>Custom Default Root View</h1>
+        <p>This view uses the Default Template.</p>
+      </Gutter>
+    </DefaultTemplate>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Securing Custom Views
+
+All Custom Views are public by default. It's up to you to secure your custom views. If your view requires a user to be logged in or to have certain access rights, you should handle that within your view component yourself.
+
+Here is how you might secure a Custom View:
+
+```tsx
+import type { AdminViewServerProps } from 'payload'
+
+import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+import React from 'react'
+
+export function MyCustomView({
+  initPageResult
+}: AdminViewServerProps) {
+  const {
+    req: {
+      user
+    }
+  } = initPageResult
+
+  if (!user) {
+    return <p>You must be logged in to view this page.</p>
+  }
+
+  return (
+    <Gutter>
+      <h1>Custom Default Root View</h1>
+      <p>This view uses the Default Template.</p>
+    </Gutter>
+  )
+}
+```

+
+Document Views consist of multiple, individual views that together represent any single [Collection](../configuration/collections) or [Global](../configuration/globals) Document. All Document Views and are scoped under the `/collections/:collectionSlug/:id` or the `/globals/:globalSlug` route, respectively.
+
+There are a number of default Document Views, such as the [Edit View](./edit-view) and API View, but you can also create [entirely new views](./custom-views#adding-new-views) as needed. All Document Views share a layout and can be given their own tab-based navigation, if desired.
+
+To customize Document Views, use the `admin.components.views.edit[key]` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollectionOrGlobalConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      views: {
+        // highlight-start
+        edit: {
+          default: {
+            Component: '/path/to/MyCustomEditView',
+          },
+          // Other options include:
+          // - root
+          // - api
+          // - versions
+          // - version
+          // - livePreview
+          // - [key: string]
+          // See below for more details
+        },
+        // highlight-end
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+## Config Options
+
+The following options are available:
+
+| Property          | Description                                                                                                                                                     |
+| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `root`        | The Root View overrides all other nested views and routes. No document controls or tabs are rendered when this key is set. [More details](#document-root). |
+| `default`     | The Default View is the primary view in which your document is edited. It is rendered within the "Edit" tab. [More details](./edit-view).                                                    |
+| `versions`    | The Versions View is used to navigate the version history of a single document. It is rendered within the "Versions" tab. [More details](../versions/overview). |
+| `version`     | The Version View is used to edit a single version of a document. It is rendered within the "Version" tab. [More details](../versions/overview).                 |
+| `api`         | The API View is used to display the REST API JSON response for a given document. It is rendered within the "API" tab.                                           |
+| `livePreview` | The LivePreview view is used to display the Live Preview interface. It is rendered within the "Live Preview" tab. [More details](../live-preview/overview).     |
+| `[key]`       | Any other key can be used to add a completely new Document View.                                                                |
+
+_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](./custom-views#building-custom-views)._
+
+### Document Root
+
+The Document Root is mounted on the top-level route for a Document. Setting this property will completely take over the entire Document View layout, including the title, [Document Tabs](#ocument-tabs), _and all other nested Document Views_ including the [Edit View](./edit-view), API View, etc.
+
+When setting a Document Root, you are responsible for rendering all necessary components and controls, as no document controls or tabs would be rendered. To replace only the Edit View precisely, use the `edit.default` key instead.
+
+To override the Document Root, use the `views.edit.root` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
+  slug: 'my-collection',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      views: {
+        edit: {
+          // highlight-start
+          root: {
+            Component: '/path/to/MyCustomRootComponent', // highlight-line
+          },
+          // highlight-end
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### Edit View
+
+The Edit View is where users interact with individual Collection and Global Documents. This is where they can view, edit, and save their content. the Edit View is keyed under the `default` property in the `views.edit` object.
+
+For more information on customizing the Edit View, see the [Edit View](./edit-view) documentation.
+
+## Document Tabs
+
+Each Document View can be given a tab for navigation, if desired. Tabs are highly configurable, from as simple as changing the label to swapping out the entire component, they can be modified in any way.
+
+To add or customize tabs in the Document View, use the `views.edit.[key].tab` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
+  slug: 'my-collection',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      views: {
+        edit: {
+          myCustomTab: {
+            Component: '/path/to/MyCustomTab',
+            path: '/my-custom-tab',
+            // highlight-start
+            tab: {
+              Component: '/path/to/MyCustomTabComponent'
+            }
+            // highlight-end
+          },
+          anotherCustomTab: {
+            Component: '/path/to/AnotherCustomView',
+            path: '/another-custom-view',
+            // highlight-start
+            tab: {
+              label: 'Another Custom View',
+              href: '/another-custom-view',
+            }
+            // highlight-end
+          },
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+ **Note:**
+ This applies to _both_ Collections _and_ Globals.
+</Banner>
+
+The following options are available for tabs:
+
+| Property    | Description                                                                                           |
+| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `label`     | The label to display in the tab.                                                                      |
+| `href`      | The URL to navigate to when the tab is clicked. This is optional and defaults to the tab's `path`.    |
+| `Component` | The component to render in the tab. This can be a Server or Client component. [More details](#tab-components) |
+
+### Tab Components
+
+If changing the label or href is not enough, you can also replace the entire tab component with your own custom component. This can be done by setting the `tab.Component` property to the path of your custom component.
+
+Here is an example of how to scaffold a custom Document Tab:
+
+#### Server Component
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import type { DocumentTabServerProps } from 'payload'
+import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export function MyCustomTabComponent(props: DocumentTabServerProps) {
+  return (
+    <Link href="/my-custom-tab">
+      This is a custom Document Tab (Server)
+    </Link>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+#### Client Component
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import React from 'react'
+import type { DocumentTabClientProps } from 'payload'
+import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export function MyCustomTabComponent(props: DocumentTabClientProps) {
+  return (
+    <Link href="/my-custom-tab">
+      This is a custom Document Tab (Client)
+    </Link>
+  )
+}
+```

+### SaveButton
+
+The `SaveButton` property allows you to render a custom Save Button in the Edit View.
+
+To add a `SaveButton` component, use the `components.edit.SaveButton` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or `components.elements.SaveButton` in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      edit: {
+        // highlight-start
+        SaveButton: '/path/to/MySaveButton',
+        // highlight-end
+      }
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+Here's an example of a custom `SaveButton` component:
+
+#### Server Component
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import { SaveButton } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+import type { SaveButtonServerProps } from 'payload'
+
+export function MySaveButton(props: SaveButtonServerProps) {
+  return (
+    <SaveButton label="Save" />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+#### Client Component

+export function MySaveButton(props: SaveButtonClientProps) {
+  return (
+    <SaveButton label="Save" />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### SaveDraftButton
+
+The `SaveDraftButton` property allows you to render a custom Save Draft Button in the Edit View.
+
+To add a `SaveDraftButton` component, use the `components.edit.SaveDraftButton` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or `components.elements.SaveDraftButton` in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      edit: {

+        // highlight-end
+      }
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+Here's an example of a custom `SaveDraftButton` component:
+
+#### Server Component
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import { SaveDraftButton } from '@payloadcms/ui'

+  return (
+    <SaveDraftButton />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### PublishButton
+

+The List View is where users interact with a list of [Collection](../collections/overview) Documents within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). This is where they can view, sort, filter, and paginate their documents to find exactly what they're looking for. This is also where users can perform bulk operations on multiple documents at once, such as deleting, editing, or publishing many.
+
+The List View can be swapped out in its entirety for a Custom View, or it can be injected with a number of Custom Components to add additional functionality or presentational elements without replacing the entire view.
+
+<Banner type="info">
+  **Note:**
+  Only [Collections](../collections/overview) have a List View. [Globals](../globals/overview) do not have a List View as they are single documents.

+## Custom List View
+
+To swap out the entire List View with a [Custom View](./custom-views), use the `admin.components.views.list` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
+
+```tsx

+title: Swap in your own React components
+label: Overview
+order: 10
+desc: Fully customize your Admin Panel by swapping in your own React components. Add fields, remove views, update routes and change functions to sculpt your perfect Dashboard.
+keywords: admin, components, custom, documentation, Content Management System, cms, headless, javascript, node, react, nextjs
+---
+
+The Payload [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) is designed to be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow for easy customization and full control over the UI. In order for Payload to support this level of customization, Payload provides a pattern for you to supply your own React components through your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview).
+
+All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end. Custom Components are available for nearly every part of the Admin Panel for extreme granularity and control.
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  **Note:**
+  Client Components continue to be fully supported. To use Client Components in your app, simply include the `'use client'` directive. Payload will automatically detect and remove all [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) default props before rendering your component. [More details](#client-components).
+</Banner>
+
+There are four main types of Custom Components in Payload:
+
+- [Root Components](./root-components)
+- [Collection Components](../configuration/collections#custom-components)
+- [Global Components](../configuration/globals#custom-components)
+- [Field Components](../fields/overview#custom-components)
+
+To swap in your own Custom Component, first determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, consult the list of available components, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-components) accordingly.
+
+## Defining Custom Components
+
+As Payload compiles the Admin Panel, it checks your config for Custom Components. When detected, Payload either replaces its own default component with yours, or if none exists by default, renders yours outright. While there are many places where Custom Components are supported in Payload, each is defined in the same way using [Component Paths](#component-paths).
+
+To add a Custom Component, point to its file path in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      logout: {
+        Button: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent' // highlight-line
+      }
+    }
+  },
+})
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  **Note:**
+  All Custom Components can be either Server Components or Client Components, depending on the presence of the `'use client'` directive at the top of the file.
+</Banner>
+
+### Component Paths
+
+In order to ensure the Payload Config is fully Node.js compatible and as lightweight as possible, components are not directly imported into your config. Instead, they are identified by their file path for the Admin Panel to resolve on its own.
+
+Component Paths, by default, are relative to your project's base directory. This is either your current working directory, or the directory specified in `config.admin.importMap.baseDir`.
+
+Components using named exports are identified either by appending `#` followed by the export name, or using the `exportName` property. If the component is the default export, this can be omitted.
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
+import path from 'path'
+const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
+const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    importMap: {
+      baseDir: path.resolve(dirname, 'src'), // highlight-line
+    },
+    components: {
+      logout: {
+        Button: '/components/Logout#MyComponent' // highlight-line
+      }
+    }
+  },
+})
+```
+
+In this example, we set the base directory to the `src` directory, and omit the `/src/` part of our component path string.
+
+### Component Config
+
+While Custom Components are usually defined as a string, you can also pass in an object with additional options:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      logout: {
+        // highlight-start
+        Button: {
+          path: '/src/components/Logout',
+          exportName: 'MyComponent',
+        }
+        // highlight-end
+      }
+    }
+  },
+})
+```
+
+The following options are available:
+
+| Property      | Description                                                                                                                   |
+|---------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `clientProps` | Props to be passed to the Custom Components if it's a Client Component. [More details](#custom-props).                         |
+| `exportName`  | Instead of declaring named exports using `#` in the component path, you can also omit them from `path` and pass them in here. |
+| `path`        | File path to the Custom Component. Named exports can be appended to the end of the path, separated by a `#`.                         |
+| `serverProps` | Props to be passed to the Custom Component if it's a Server Component. [More details](#custom-props).                         |
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components).
+
+### Import Map
+
+In order for Payload to make use of [Component Paths](#component-paths), an "Import Map" is automatically generated at either `src/app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js` or `app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js`. This file contains every Custom Component in your config, keyed to their respective paths. When Payload needs to lookup a component, it uses this file to find the correct import.
+
+The Import Map is automatically regenerated at startup and whenever Hot Module Replacement (HMR) runs, or you can run `payload generate:importmap` to manually regenerate it.
+
+#### Overriding Import Map Location
+
+Using the `config.admin.importMap.importMapFile` property, you can override the location of the import map. This is useful if you want to place the import map in a different location, or if you want to use a custom file name.
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
+import path from 'path'
+const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
+const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    importMap: {
+      baseDir: path.resolve(dirname, 'src'),
+      importMapFile: path.resolve(dirname, 'app', '(payload)', 'custom-import-map.js'), // highlight-line
+    },
+  },
+})
+```
+
+#### Custom Imports
+
+If needed, custom items can be appended onto the Import Map. This is mostly only relevant for plugin authors who need to add a custom import that is not referenced in a known location.
+
+To add a custom import to the Import Map, use the `admin.dependencies` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // ...
+    dependencies: {
+      myTestComponent: { // myTestComponent is the key - can be anything
+        path: '/components/TestComponent.js#TestComponent',
+        type: 'component',
+        clientProps: {
+          test: 'hello',
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  }
+})
+```

+All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end, among other things.
+
+### Default Props
+
+To make building Custom Components as easy as possible, Payload automatically provides common props, such as the [`payload`](../local-api/overview) class and the [`i18n`](../configuration/i18n) object. This means that when building Custom Components within the Admin Panel, you do not have to get these yourself.
+
+Here is an example:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import type { Payload } from 'payload'
+
+async function MyServerComponent({
+  payload // highlight-line
+}: {
+  payload: Payload
+}) {
+  const page = await payload.findByID({
+    collection: 'pages',
+    id: '123',
+  })
+
+  return (
+    <p>{page.title}</p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+Each Custom Component receives the following props by default:
+
+| Prop                      | Description                                                                                           |
+| ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `payload`                 | The [Payload](../local-api/overview) class.                                                           |
+| `i18n`                    | The [i18n](../configuration/i18n) object.                                                                           |
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  **Reminder:**
+  All Custom Components also receive various other props that are specific to the component being rendered. See [Root Components](#root-components), [Collection Components](../configuration/collections#custom-components), [Global Components](../configuration/globals#custom-components), or [Field Components](../fields/overview#custom-components) for a complete list of all default props per component.
+</Banner>
+
+### Custom Props
+
+It is also possible to pass custom props to your Custom Components. To do this, you can use either the `clientProps` or `serverProps` properties depending on whether your prop is [serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types), and whether your component is a Server or Client Component.
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: { // highlight-line
+    components: {
+      logout: {
+        Button: {
+          path: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent',
+          clientProps: {
+            myCustomProp: 'Hello, World!' // highlight-line
+          },
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is how your component might receive this prop:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export function MyComponent({ myCustomProp }: { myCustomProp: string }) {
+  return (
+    <Link href="/admin/logout">{myCustomProp}</Link>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Client Components
+
+All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default, however, it is possible to use [Client Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client) by simply adding the `'use client'` directive at the top of your file. Payload will automatically detect and remove all [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) default props before rendering your component.
+
+```tsx
+// highlight-start
+'use client'
+// highlight-end
+import React, { useState } from 'react'
+
+export function MyClientComponent() {
+  const [count, setCount] = useState(0)
+
+  return (
+    <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>
+      Clicked {count} times
+    </button>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  **Reminder:**
+  Client Components cannot be passed [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types). If you are rendering your Client Component _from within_ a Server Component, ensure that its props are serializable.
+</Banner>
+
+### Accessing the Payload Config
+
+From any Server Component, the [Payload Config](../configuration/overview) can be accessed directly from the `payload` prop:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+
+export default async function MyServerComponent({
+  payload: {
+    config // highlight-line
+  }
+}) {
+  return (
+    <Link href={config.serverURL}>
+      Go Home
+    </Link>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+But, the Payload Config is [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) by design. It is full of custom validation functions and more. This means that the Payload Config, in its entirety, cannot be passed directly to Client Components.
+
+For this reason, Payload creates a Client Config and passes it into the Config Provider. This is a serializable version of the Payload Config that can be accessed from any Client Component via the [`useConfig`](../admin/react-hooks#useconfig) hook:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import React from 'react'
+import { useConfig } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export function MyClientComponent() {
+  // highlight-start
+  const { config: { serverURL } } = useConfig()
+  // highlight-end
+
+  return (
+    <Link href={serverURL}>
+      Go Home
+    </Link>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  See [Using Hooks](#using-hooks) for more details.
+</Banner>
+
+Similarly, all [Field Components](../fields/overview#custom-components) automatically receive their respective Field Config through props.
+
+Within Server Components, this prop is named `field`:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyClientFieldComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ field: { name } }) => {
+  return (
+    <p>
+      {`This field's name is ${name}`}
+    </p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+Within Client Components, this prop is named `clientField` because its non-serializable props have been removed:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import React from 'react'
+import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyClientFieldComponent: TextFieldClientComponent = ({ clientField: { name } }) => {
+  return (
+    <p>
+      {`This field's name is ${name}`}
+    </p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Getting the Current Language
+
+All Custom Components can support language translations to be consistent with Payload's [I18n](../configuration/i18n). This will allow your Custom Components to display the correct language based on the user's preferences.
+
+To do this, first add your translation resources to the [I18n Config](../configuration/i18n). Then from any Server Component, you can translate resources using the `getTranslation` function from `@payloadcms/translations`.
+
+All Server Components automatically receive the `i18n` object as a prop by default:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+import { getTranslation } from '@payloadcms/translations'
+
+export default async function MyServerComponent({ i18n }) {
+  const translatedTitle = getTranslation(myTranslation, i18n) // highlight-line
+
+  return (
+    <p>{translatedTitle}</p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useTranslation` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import React from 'react'
+import { useTranslation } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export function MyClientComponent() {
+  const { t, i18n } = useTranslation() // highlight-line
+
+  return (
+    <ul>
+      <li>{t('namespace1:key', { variable: 'value' })}</li>
+      <li>{t('namespace2:key', { variable: 'value' })}</li>
+      <li>{i18n.language}</li>
+    </ul>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  See the [Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
+</Banner>
+
+### Getting the Current Locale
+
+All [Custom Views](./custom-views) can support multiple locales to be consistent with Payload's [Localization](../configuration/localization) feature. This can be used to scope API requests, etc.
+
+All Server Components automatically receive the `locale` object as a prop by default:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react'
+
+export default async function MyServerComponent({ payload, locale }) {
+  const localizedPage = await payload.findByID({
+    collection: 'pages',
+    id: '123',
+    locale,
+  })
+
+  return (
+    <p>{localizedPage.title}</p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useLocale` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import React from 'react'
+import { useLocale } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+function Greeting() {
+  const locale = useLocale() // highlight-line
+
+  const trans = {
+    en: 'Hello',
+    es: 'Hola',
+  }
+
+  return (
+    <span>{trans[locale.code]}</span>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  See the [Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
+</Banner>
+
+### Using Hooks
+
+To make it easier to [build your Custom Components](#building-custom-components), you can use [Payload's built-in React Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) in any Client Component. For example, you might want to interact with one of Payload's many React Contexts. To do this, you can use one of the many hooks available depending on your needs.
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import React from 'react'
+import { useDocumentInfo } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export function MyClientComponent() {
+  const { slug } = useDocumentInfo() // highlight-line
+
+  return (
+    <p>{`Entity slug: ${slug}`}</p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  See the [Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
+</Banner>
+
+### Adding Styles
+
+Payload has a robust [CSS Library](../admin/customizing-css) that you can use to style your Custom Components to match to Payload's built-in styling. This will ensure that your Custom Components integrate well into the existing design system. This will make it so they automatically adapt to any theme changes that might occur.
+
+To apply custom styles, simply import your own `.css` or `.scss` file into your Custom Component:
+
+```tsx
+import './index.scss'
+
+export function MyComponent() {
+  return (
+    <div className="my-component">
+      My Custom Component
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+Then to colorize your Custom Component's background, for example, you can use the following CSS:
+
+```scss
+.my-component {
+  background-color: var(--theme-elevation-500);
+}
+```
+
+Payload also exports its [SCSS](https://sass-lang.com) library for reuse which includes mixins, etc. To use this, simply import it as follows into your `.scss` file:
+
+```scss
+@import '~@payloadcms/ui/scss';
+
+.my-component {
+  @include mid-break {
+    background-color: var(--theme-elevation-900);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  **Note:**
+  You can also drill into Payload's own component styles, or easily apply global, app-wide CSS. More on that [here](../admin/customizing-css).

+
+Root Components are those that affect the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) at a high-level, such as the logo or the main nav. You can swap out these components with your own [Custom Components](./overview) to create a completely custom look and feel.
+
+When combined with [Custom CSS](../admin/customizing-css), you can create a truly unique experience for your users, such as white-labeling the Admin Panel to match your brand.
+
+To override Root Components, use the `admin.components` property at the root of your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      // ...

+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})

+## Components
+
+### actions
+
+Actions are rendered within the header of the Admin Panel. Actions are typically used to display buttons that add additional interactivity and functionality, although they can be anything you'd like.
+
+To add an action, use the `actions` property in your `admin.components` config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      actions: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple Action component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyCustomAction() {
+  return (
+    <button onClick={() => alert('Hello, world!')}>
+      This is a custom action component
+    </button>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  **Note:**
+  You can also use add Actions to the [Edit View](./edit-view) and [List View](./list-view) in their respective configs.
+</Banner>
+
+### beforeDashboard
+
+The `beforeDashboard` property allows you to inject Custom Components into the built-in Dashboard, before the default dashboard contents.
+
+To add `beforeDashboard` components, use the `admin.components.beforeDashboard` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      beforeDashboard: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `beforeDashboard` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyBeforeDashboardComponent() {
+  return (
+    <div>
+      This is a custom component injected before the Dashboard.
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### afterDashboard
+
+Similar to `beforeDashboard`, the `afterDashboard` property allows you to inject Custom Components into the built-in Dashboard, _after_ the default dashboard contents.

+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      afterDashboard: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `afterDashboard` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyAfterDashboardComponent() {
+  return (
+    <div>
+      This is a custom component injected after the Dashboard.
+    </div>

+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      beforeLogin: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `beforeLogin` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyBeforeLoginComponent() {
+  return (
+    <div>
+      This is a custom component injected before the Login form.
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```

+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      afterLogin: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `afterLogin` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyAfterLoginComponent() {
+  return (
+    <div>
+      This is a custom component injected after the Login form.
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### beforeNavLinks
+
+The `beforeNavLinks` property allows you to inject Custom Components into the built-in [Nav Component](#nav), _before_ the nav links themselves.
+
+To add `beforeNavLinks` components, use the `admin.components.beforeNavLinks` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      beforeNavLinks: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `beforeNavLinks` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyBeforeNavLinksComponent() {
+  return (
+    <div>
+      This is a custom component injected before the Nav links.
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### afterNavLinks
+
+Similar to `beforeNavLinks`, the `afterNavLinks` property allows you to inject Custom Components into the built-in Nav, _after_ the nav links.
+
+To add `afterNavLinks` components, use the `admin.components.afterNavLinks` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      afterNavLinks: [
+        '/path/to/your/component',
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `afterNavLinks` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyAfterNavLinksComponent() {
+  return (
+    <p>This is a custom component injected after the Nav links.</p>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Nav
+
+The `Nav` property contains the sidebar / mobile menu in its entirety. Use this property to completely replace the built-in Nav with your own custom navigation.
+
+To add a custom nav, use the `admin.components.Nav` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      Nav: '/path/to/your/component',
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `Nav` component:
+
+```tsx
+import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export default function MyCustomNav() {
+  return (
+    <nav>
+      <ul>
+        <li>
+          <Link href="/dashboard">
+            Dashboard
+          </Link>
+        </li>
+      </ul>
+    </nav>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### graphics.Icon
+
+The `Icon` property is the simplified logo used in contexts like the `Nav` component. This is typically a small, square icon that represents your brand.
+
+To add a custom icon, use the `admin.components.graphics.Icon` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      graphics: {
+        Icon: '/path/to/your/component',
+      },
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `Icon` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyCustomIcon() {
+  return (
+    <img src="/path/to/your/icon.png" alt="My Custom Icon" />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### graphics.Logo
+
+The `Logo` property is the full logo used in contexts like the `Login` view. This is typically a larger, more detailed representation of your brand.
+
+To add a custom logo, use the `admin.components.graphic.Logo` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      graphics: {
+        Logo: '/path/to/your/component',
+      },
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `Logo` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyCustomLogo() {
+  return (
+    <img src="/path/to/your/logo.png" alt="My Custom Logo" />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Header
+
+The `Header` property allows you to inject Custom Components above the Payload header.
+
+Examples of a custom header components might include an announcements banner, a notifications bar, or anything else you'd like to display at the top of the Admin Panel in a prominent location.
+
+To add `Header` components, use the `admin.components.header` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      Header: [
+        '/path/to/your/component'
+      ],
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `Header` component:
+
+```tsx
+export default function MyCustomHeader() {
+  return (
+    <header>
+      <h1>My Custom Header</h1>
+    </header>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### logout.Button
+
+The `logout.Button` property is the button displayed in the sidebar that should log the user out when clicked.
+
+To add a custom logout button, use the `admin.components.logout.Button` property in your Payload Config:
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export default buildConfig({
+  // ...
+  admin: {
+    // highlight-start
+    components: {
+      logout: {
+        Button: '/path/to/your/component',
+      }
+    },
+    // highlight-end
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Here is an example of a simple `logout.Button` component:
+

+## Block References
+
+If you have multiple blocks used in multiple places, your Payload Config can grow in size, potentially sending more data to the client and requiring more processing on the server. However, you can optimize performance by defining each block **once** in your Payload Config and then referencing its slug wherever it's used instead of passing the entire block config.
+
+To do this, define the block in the `blocks` array of the Payload Config. Then, in the Blocks Field, pass the block slug to the `blockReferences` array - leaving the `blocks` array empty for compatibility reasons.
+
+```ts
+import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
+import { lexicalEditor, BlocksFeature } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
+
+// Payload Config
+const config = buildConfig({
+  // Define the block once
+  blocks: [
+    {
+      slug: 'TextBlock',
+      fields: [
+        {
+          name: 'text',
+          type: 'text',
+        },
+      ],
+    },
+  ],
+  collections: [
+    {
+      slug: 'collection1',
+      fields: [
+        {
+          name: 'content',
+          type: 'blocks',
+          // Reference the block by slug
+          blockReferences: ['TextBlock'],
+          blocks: [], // Required to be empty, for compatibility reasons
+        },
+      ],
+    },
+     {
+      slug: 'collection2',
+      fields: [
+        {
+          name: 'editor',
+          type: 'richText',
+          editor: lexicalEditor({
+            BlocksFeature({
+              // Same reference can be reused anywhere, even in the lexical editor, without incurred performance hit
+              blocks: ['TextBlock'],
+            })
+          })
+        },
+      ],
+    },
+  ],
+})
+```
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  **Reminder:**
+  Blocks referenced in the `blockReferences` array are treated as isolated from the collection / global config. This has the following implications:
+
+  1. The block config cannot be modified or extended in the collection config. It will be identical everywhere it's referenced.
+  2. Access control for blocks referenced in the `blockReferences` are run only once - data from the collection will not be available in the block's access control.

 ## TypeScript
 
 As you build your own Block configs, you might want to store them in separate files but retain typing accordingly. To do so, you can import and use Payload's `Block` type:

 Fields are the building blocks of Payload. They define the schema of the Documents that will be stored in the [Database](../database/overview), as well as automatically generate the corresponding UI within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview).

Fields can have [Custom Validations](#validation), [Conditional Logic](../admin/fields#conditional-logic), [Access Control](#field-level-access-control), [Hooks](#field-level-hooks), and so much more.

 #### Async Field Validations
 
 Custom validation functions can also be asynchronous depending on your needs. This makes it possible to make requests to external services or perform other miscellaneous asynchronous logic.
 
+When writing async validation functions, it is important to consider the performance implications. Validations are executed on every change to the field, so they should be as lightweight as possible. If you need to perform expensive validations, such as querying the database, consider using the `event` property in the `ctx` object to only run the validation on form submission.

+### Field Descriptions
+
+Field Descriptions are used to provide additional information to the editor about a field, such as special instructions. Their placement varies from field to field, but typically are displayed with subtle style differences beneath the field inputs.
+
+A description can be configured in three ways:
+
+- As a string.
+- As a function which returns a string. [More details](#description-functions).
+- As a React component. [More details](#description).
+
+To add a Custom Description to a field, use the `admin.description` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  fields: [
+    // ...
+    {
+      name: 'myField',
+      type: 'text',
+      admin: {
+        description: 'Hello, world!' // highlight-line
+      },
+    },
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="warning">

+    {
+      name: 'myField',
+      type: 'text',
+      admin: {
+        description: ({ t }) => `${t('Hello, world!')}` // highlight-line
+      },
+    },
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+All Description Functions receive the following arguments:
+
+|    Argument          |    Description                                                                                         |
+| --- | --- |
+|    **`t`**           |    The `t` function used to internationalize the Admin Panel. [More details](../configuration/i18n)    |
+
+<Banner type="info">
+  **Note:** If you need to subscribe to live updates within your form, use a Description Component instead. [More details](#description).
+</Banner>
+
+### Conditional Logic
+
+You can show and hide fields based on what other fields are doing by utilizing conditional logic on a field by field basis. The `condition` property on a field's admin config accepts a function which takes the following arguments:
+
+|    Argument             |    Description                                                                      |
+| --- | --- |
+|    **`data`**           |    The entire document's data that is currently being edited.                       |
+|    **`siblingData`**    |    Only the fields that are direct siblings to the field with the condition.        |
+|    **`ctx`**            |    An object containing additional information about the field’s location and user. |
+
+The `ctx` object:
+
+|    Property           |    Description                                                                                                                                                  |
+| --- | --- |
+|    **`blockData`**    |    The nearest parent block's data. If the field is not inside a block, this will be `undefined`.                                                               |
+|    **`path`**         |    The full path to the field in the schema, represented as an array of string segments, including array indexes. I.e `['group', 'myArray', '1', 'textField']`. |
+|    **`user`**         |    The currently authenticated user object.                                                                                                                     |
+
+The `condition` function should return a boolean that will control if the field should be displayed or not.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```ts
+{
+  fields: [
+    {
+      name: 'enableGreeting',
+      type: 'checkbox',
+      defaultValue: false,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'greeting',
+      type: 'text',
+      admin: {
+        // highlight-start
+        condition: (data, siblingData, { blockData, path, user }) => {
+          if (data.enableGreeting) {
+            return true
+          } else {
+            return false
+          }
+        },
+        // highlight-end
+      },
+    },
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Custom Components
+
+Within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), fields are represented in three distinct places:
+
+- [Field](#field) - The actual form field rendered in the Edit View.
+- [Cell](#cell) - The table cell component rendered in the List View.
+- [Filter](#filter) - The filter component rendered in the List View.
+- [Diff](#diff) - The Diff component rendered in the Version Diff View
+
+To swap in Field Components with your own, use the `admin.components` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const CollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  fields: [
+    // ...
+    {
+      // ...
+      admin: {
+        components: { // highlight-line
+          // ...
+        },
+      },
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+The following options are available:
+
+|    Component       |    Description                                                                                                                    |
+| --- | --- |
+|    **`Field`**     |    The form field rendered of the Edit View. [More details](#field).                                                   |
+|    **`Cell`**      |    The table cell rendered of the List View. [More details](#cell).                 |
+|    **`Filter`**    |    The filter component rendered in the List View. [More details](#filter).    |
+|    **`Label`**          |    Override the default Label of the Field Component. [More details](#label).                                       |
+|    **`Error`**          |    Override the default Error of the Field Component. [More details](#error).                                       |
+|   **`Diff`**   |   Override the default Diff component rendered in the Version Diff View. [More details](#diff).                 |
+|    **`Description`**    |    Override the default Description of the Field Component. [More details](#description).                         |
+|    **`beforeInput`**    |    An array of elements that will be added before the input of the Field Component. [More details](#afterinput-and-beforeinput).   |
+|    **`afterInput`**     |    An array of elements that will be added after the input of the Field Component. [More details](#afterinput-and-beforeinput).    |
+
+#### Field
+
+The Field Component is the actual form field rendered in the Edit View. This is the input that user's will interact with when editing a document.
+
+To swap in your own Field Component, use the `admin.components.Field` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const CollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  fields: [
+    // ...
+    {
+      // ...
+      admin: {
+        components: {
+          Field: '/path/to/MyFieldComponent', // highlight-line
+        },
+      },
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+*For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).*
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  Instead of replacing the entire Field Component, you can alternately replace or slot-in only specific parts by using the [`Label`](#label), [`Error`](#error), [`beforeInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput), and [`afterInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput) properties.
+</Banner>
+
+##### Default Props
+
+All Field Components receive the following props by default:
+
+|    Property                |    Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |

+|    **`readOnly`**          |    A boolean value that represents if the field is read-only or not.                                                                                                                                                                      |
+|    **`user`**              |    The currently authenticated user. [More details](../authentication/overview).                                                                                                                                                          |
+|    **`validate`**          |    A function that can be used to validate the field.                                                                                                                                                                                     |
+|    **`path`**              |    A string representing the direct, dynamic path to the field at runtime, i.e. `myGroup.myArray.0.myField`.                                                                                                                              |
+|    **`schemaPath`**        |    A string representing the direct, static path to the Field Config, i.e. `posts.myGroup.myArray.myField`.                                                                                                         |
+|    **`indexPath`**         |    A hyphen-notated string representing the path to the field *within the nearest named ancestor field*, i.e. `0-0`                                                                                                                       |
+
+In addition to the above props, all Server Components will also receive the following props:
+
+|    Property             |    Description                                                                      |
+| --- | --- |
+|    **`clientField`**    |    The serializable Client Field Config.                                            |

+
+##### Sending and receiving values from the form
+
+When swapping out the `Field` component, you are responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself.
+
+To do so, import the [`useField`](../admin/react-hooks#usefield) hook from `@payloadcms/ui` and use it to manage the field's value:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import { useField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+
+export const CustomTextField: React.FC = () => {
+  const { value, setValue } = useField() // highlight-line
+
+  return (
+    <input
+      onChange={(e) => setValue(e.target.value)}
+      value={value}
+    />
+  )
+}
+```
+
+<Banner type="success">
+  For a complete list of all available React hooks, see the [Payload React Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) documentation. For additional help, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+</Banner>
+
+##### TypeScript#field-component-types
+
+When building Custom Field Components, you can import the client field props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to prepend the field type onto the target type, i.e. `TextFieldClientComponent`:
+
+```tsx
+import type {
+  TextFieldClientComponent,
+  TextFieldServerComponent,
+  TextFieldClientProps,
+  TextFieldServerProps,
+  // ...and so on for each Field Type
+} from 'payload'
+```
+
+See each individual Field Type for exact type imports.
+
+#### Cell
+
+The Cell Component is rendered in the table of the List View. It represents the value of the field when displayed in a table cell.
+
+To swap in your own Cell Component, use the `admin.components.Cell` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { Field } from 'payload'
+
+export const myField: Field = {
+  name: 'myField',
+  type: 'text',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      Cell: '/path/to/MyCustomCellComponent', // highlight-line
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+All Cell Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field), plus the following:
+
+|    Property            |    Description                                                          |
+| --- | --- |
+|    **`link`**    |    A boolean representing whether this cell should be wrapped in a link.    |
+|    **`onClick`**    |    A function that is called when the cell is clicked.    |
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+
+#### Filter
+
+The Filter Component is the actual input element rendered within the "Filter By" dropdown of the List View used to represent this field when building filters.
+
+To swap in your own Filter Component, use the `admin.components.Filter` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { Field } from 'payload'
+
+export const myField: Field = {
+  name: 'myField',
+  type: 'text',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      Filter: '/path/to/MyCustomFilterComponent', // highlight-line
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+All Custom Filter Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+
+#### Label
+
+The Label Component is rendered anywhere a field needs to be represented by a label. This is typically used in the Edit View, but can also be used in the List View and elsewhere.
+
+To swap in your own Label Component, use the `admin.components.Label` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { Field } from 'payload'
+
+export const myField: Field = {
+  name: 'myField',
+  type: 'text',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      Label: '/path/to/MyCustomLabelComponent', // highlight-line
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+All Custom Label Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+
+##### TypeScript#label-component-types
+
+When building Custom Label Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Label Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to append `LabelServerComponent` or `LabelClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent`.
+
+```tsx
+import type {
+  TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
+  TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
+  // ...and so on for each Field Type
+} from 'payload'
+```
+
+#### Description
+
+Alternatively to the [Description Property](#field-descriptions), you can also use a [Custom Component](../custom-components/overview) as the Field Description. This can be useful when you need to provide more complex feedback to the user, such as rendering dynamic field values or other interactive elements.
+
+To add a Description Component to a field, use the `admin.components.Description` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  fields: [
+    // ...
+    {
+      name: 'myField',
+      type: 'text',
+      admin: {
+        components: {
+          Description: '/path/to/MyCustomDescriptionComponent', // highlight-line
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+All Custom Description Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
+
+For details on how to build a Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+
+##### TypeScript#description-component-types
+
+When building Custom Description Components, you can import the component props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Description Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to append `DescriptionServerComponent` or `DescriptionClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent`.
+
+```tsx
+import type {
+  TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
+  TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
+  // And so on for each Field Type
+} from 'payload'
+```
+
+#### Error
+
+The Error Component is rendered when a field fails validation. It is typically displayed beneath the field input in a visually-compelling style.
+
+To swap in your own Error Component, use the `admin.components.Error` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { Field } from 'payload'
+
+export const myField: Field = {
+  name: 'myField',
+  type: 'text',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      Error: '/path/to/MyCustomErrorComponent', // highlight-line
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+All Error Components receive the [Default Field Component Props](#field).
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+
+##### TypeScript#error-component-types
+
+When building Custom Error Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Error Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to append `ErrorServerComponent` or `ErrorClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldErrorClientComponent`.
+
+```tsx
+import type {
+  TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
+  TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
+  // And so on for each Field Type
+} from 'payload'
+```
+
+#### Diff
+
+The Diff Component is rendered in the Version Diff view. It will only be visible in entities with versioning enabled,
+
+To swap in your own Diff Component, use the `admin.components.Diff` property in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { Field } from 'payload'
+
+export const myField: Field = {
+  name: 'myField',
+  type: 'text',
+  admin: {
+    components: {
+      Diff: '/path/to/MyCustomDiffComponent', // highlight-line
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+All Error Components receive the [Default Field Component Props](#field).
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
+
+##### TypeScript#diff-component-types
+
+When building Custom Diff Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Diff Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to append `DiffServerComponent` or `DiffClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldDiffClientComponent`.
+
+```tsx
+import type {
+  TextFieldDiffServerComponent,
+  TextFieldDiffClientComponent,
+  // And so on for each Field Type
+} from 'payload'
+```
+
+#### afterInput and beforeInput
+
+With these properties you can add multiple components *before* and *after* the input element, as their name suggests. This is useful when you need to render additional elements alongside the field without replacing the entire field component.
+
+To add components before and after the input element, use the `admin.components.beforeInput` and `admin.components.afterInput` properties in your Field Config:
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const MyCollectionConfig: CollectionConfig = {
+  // ...
+  fields: [
+    // ...
+    {
+      name: 'myField',
+      type: 'text',
+      admin: {
+        components: {
+          // highlight-start
+          beforeInput: ['/path/to/MyCustomComponent'],
+          afterInput: ['/path/to/MyOtherCustomComponent'],
+          // highlight-end
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+All `afterInput` and `beforeInput` Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
+
+For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).

+## Reserved Field names
+
+Payload reserves certain field names for internal use. Using any of the following names in your collections or globals will result in those fields being sanitized from the config, which can cause deployment errors. Ensure that any conflicting fields are renamed before migrating.
+
+### General Reserved Names
+
+- `file`
+- `_id` (MongoDB only)
+- `__v` (MongoDB only)
+
+**Important Note**: It is recommended to avoid using field names with an underscore (`_`) prefix unless explicitly required by a plugin. Payload uses this prefix for internal columns, which can lead to conflicts in certain SQL conditions. The following are examples of reserved internal columns (this list is not exhaustive and other internal fields may also apply):
+
+- `_order`
+- `_path`
+- `_uuid`
+- `_parent_id`
+- `_locale`
+
+### Auth-Related Reserved Names
+
+These are restricted if your collection uses `auth: true` and does not have `disableAuthStrategy: true`:
+- `salt`
+- `hash`
+- `apiKey` (when `auth.useAPIKey: true` is enabled)
+- `useAPIKey` (when `auth.useAPIKey: true` is enabled)
+- `resetPasswordToken`
+- `resetPasswordExpiration`
+- `password`
+- `email`
+- `username`
+
+### Upload-Related Reserved Names
+
+These apply if your collection has `upload: true` configured:
+
+- `filename`
+- `mimetype`
+- `filesize`
+- `width`
+- `height`
+- `focalX`
+- `focalY`
+- `url`
+- `thumbnailURL`
+
+If `imageSizes` is configured, the following are also reserved:
+
+- `sizes`
+
+If any of these names are found in your collection / global fields, update them before migrating to avoid unexpected issues.
