### What?
In the localization example, changing the data in the admin panel does
not update the public page.
### Why?
The afterChange hook revalidates the wrong path after page is changed.
### How?
The afterChange hook is revalidating "/[slug]" but it should in fact
revalidate "/[locale]/[slug]"
Fixes #
Updated the path to include the locale before the slug.
This PR updates the email validation regex to better handle use cases
with hyphens.
Changes:
- Disallows domains starting or ending with a hyphen
(`user@-example.com`, `user@example-.com`).
- Allows domains with consecutive hyphens inside (`user@ex--ample.com`).
- Allows multiple subdomains (`user@sub.domain.example.com`).
- Adds `int test` coverage for multiple domain use case scenarios.
If the `useAsTitle` property is defined referencing a richtext field,
the admin panel throws errors in several places.
I noticed this in the email builder plugin, where we're making the
subject field (which is the title) a single-paragraph richtext field
instead of a text field for technical reasons.
In this PR, for the lexical richtext case, I'm converting the first
child of the RootNode (usually a paragraph or heading) to plain text.
Additionally, I am verifying that if the resulting title is not of type
string, fallback to "untitled" so that this does not happen again in the
future (perhaps with slate, or with other fields).
### What?
Extends our dataloader to add a momiozed payload find function. This way
it will cache the query for the same find request using a cacheKey from
find operation args.
### Why?
This was needed internally for `filterOptions` that exist in an array or
other sitautions where you have the same exact query being made and
awaited many times.
### How?
- Added `find` to payloadDataLoader. Marked `@experimental` in case it
needs to change.
- Created a cache key from the args
- Validate filterOptions changed from `payload.find` to
`payloadDataLoader.find`
- Made `payloadDataLoader` no longer optional on `PayloadRequest`, since
other args are required which are created from createLocalReq (context
for example), I don't see a reason why dataLoader shouldn't be required
also.
Example usage:
```ts
const result = await req.payloadDataLoader.find({
collection,
req,
where,
})
```
### What?
- GraphQL was broken because of an error with the enum for the drafts
input which cannot be 'true'.
- Selecting Draft was not doing anything as it wasn't being passed
through to the find arguments.
### Why?
This was causing any graphql calls to error.
### How?
- Changed draft options to Yes/No instead of True/False
- Correctly pass the drafts arg to `draft`
Fixes #
### What?
The import-export preview UI component does not handle localized fields
and crash the UI when they are used. This fixes that issue.
### Why?
We were not properly handling the label translated object notation that
field.label can have.
### How?
Now we call `getTranslation` with the field label to handle language
keyed labels.
Fixes # https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11668
### What?
Export FieldAccessArgs type.
### Why?
Prevent projects from needing to recreate this type manually and keep it
in sync with changes in payload releases.
### How?
Exports a new type called FieldAccessArg that is then referenced in the
FieldAccess function argument.
This PR updates the email validation regex to enforce stricter rules.
- Disallows emails containing double quotes (e.g., `"user"@example.com`,
`user@"example.com"`, `"user@example.com"`).
- Rejects spaces anywhere in the email (e.g., `user @example.com`).
- Prevents consecutive dots in both local and domain parts (e.g.,
`user..name@example.com`, `user@example..com`).
- Allows standard formats like `user@example.com` and
`user.name+alias@example.co.uk`.

### What?
This PR adds a new error to be thrown when logging in while having
`verify: true` set but no email has been verified for the user yet.
### Why?
To have a more descriptive, actionable error thrown in this case as
opposed to the generic "Invalid email or password." This gives users
more insight into why the login failed.
### How?
Introducing a new error: `UnverifiedEmail` and adjusting the check to be
separate from `if (!user) { ... }`.
Fixes#11358
Notes:
- In terms of account enumeration: this should not be a concern here as
the check for throwing this error comes _after_ the check for valid args
as well as the find for the user. This means that credentials must be on
hand, both an email and password, before seeing this error.
- I have an int test written in `/test/auth/int.spec.ts` for this,
however whenever I try to commit it I get an error stating that the
`eslint@9.14.0` module was not found during `lint-staged`.

Demo of toast:

Consolidates all bulk edit related tests into a single, dedicated suite.
Currently, bulk edit tests are dispersed throughout the Admin > General
and the Versions test suites, which are considerably bloated for their
own purposes. This made them very hard to locate, mentally digest, and
add on new tests. Going forward, many more tests specifically for bulk
edit will need to be written. This gives us a simple, isolated place for
that.
With this change are also a few improvements to the tests themselves to
make them more predictable and efficient.
Previously, unchecked list items had the `checked="false"` attribute,
which is not valid in HTML and renders them as checked.
This PR omits the `checked` attribute if the list item is unchecked,
which is the correct behavior.
When converting lexical to HTML, links without "open in new tab" checked
were incorrectly rendering with rel=undefined and target=undefined
attributes. This fix ensures those attributes are only added when newTab
is true.
Fixes: #11752
### What?
When duplicating a document with `unique` fields, we append `- Copy` to
the field value.
The issue is that this is happening when the field is empty resulting in
values being added that look like: `undefined - Copy` or `null - Copy`.
### Why?
We are not checking the incoming value in all cases.
### How?
Checks the value exists, is a string, and is not just an empty space
before appending `- Copy`.
At first glance it looks incorrect to return required fields with
`undefined` - however when duplicating a document, the new document is
always created as a `draft` so it is not an issue to return `undefined`.
Closes#11373
### What?
When accessing an upload directly from the generated URL, the `read`
access runs but returns undefined `id` and `data`. As a result, any
access conditions that rely on `id` or `data` will fail and users cannot
accurately determine whether or not to grant access.
### Why?
Accessing the file URL runs
`packages/payload/src/uploads/endpoints/getFile.ts`.
In this endpoint, we use `checkFileAccess()` from
`packages/payload/src/uploads/checkFileAccess.ts`.
Within the `checkFileAccess` function we are only passing the `req` to
`executeAccess()`.
### How?
Passes `filename` to the `executeAccess()` function from
`uploads/checkFileAccess`, this is the available data within the file
and will provide a way for users to make a request to get the full data.
Fixes#11263
### What?
This PR ensures that bulk uploads fail if any file is missing, rather
than skipping missing files and proceeding with the upload.
### Why?
This fixes unintended behavior where missing files were skipped,
allowing partial uploads when they shouldn't be allowed.
### How?
- Prevents submission if any file is missing by checking `req.status ===
400`.
- Updates `FileSidebar` to correctly handle cases where a file is
`null`.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6884
Adds a new flag `acceptIDOnCreate` that allows you to thread your own
`id` to `payload.create` `data`, for example:
```ts
// doc created with id 1
const doc = await payload.create({ collection: 'posts', data: {id: 1, title: "my title"}})
```
```ts
import { Types } from 'mongoose'
const id = new Types.ObjectId().toHexString()
const doc = await payload.create({ collection: 'posts', data: {id, title: "my title"}})
```
Bulk edit can now request a partial form state thanks to #11689. This
means that we only need to build form state (and send it through the
network) for the currently selected fields, as opposed to the entire
field schema.
Not only this, but there is no longer a need to filter out unselected
fields before submitting the form, as the form state will only ever
include the currently selected fields. This is unnecessary processing
and causes an excessive amount of rendering, especially since we were
dispatching actions within a `for` loop to remove each field. React may
have batched these updates, but is bad practice regardless.
Related: stripping unselected fields was also error prone. This is
because the `overrides` function we were using to do this receives
`FormState` (shallow) as an argument, but was being treated as `Data`
(not shallow, what the create and update operations expect).
E.g. `{ myGroup.myTitle: { value: 'myValue' }}` → `{ myGroup: { myTitle:
'myValue' }}`.
This led to the `sanitizeUnselectedFields` function improperly
formatting data sent to the server and would throw an API error upon
submission. This is only evident when sanitizing nested fields. Instead
of converting this data _again_, the select API takes care of this by
ensuring only selected fields exist in form state.
Related: bulk upload was not hitting form state on change. This means
that no field-level validation was occurring on type.

Only 2 s3Storage() instances with `clientUploads: true` are currently
working. If you add a 3rd instance, uploading files errors with
"Collection credit-certificates was not found in S3 options".
There is already an implementation that changes the
`/storage-s3-generate-signed-url` URL for each new s3Storage plugin
instance so that multiple instances don't break each other. Currently
the code looks like this:
```ts
/**
* Tracks how many times the same handler was already applied.
* This allows to apply the same plugin multiple times, for example
* to use different buckets for different collections.
*/
let handlerCount = 0
for (const endpoint of config.endpoints) {
if (endpoint.path === serverHandlerPath) {
handlerCount++
}
}
if (handlerCount) {
serverHandlerPath = `${serverHandlerPath}-${handlerCount}`
}
```
When we print the endpoints generated by this code we get:
```ts
{
handler: [AsyncFunction (anonymous)],
method: 'post',
path: '/storage-s3-generate-signed-url'
},
{
handler: [AsyncFunction (anonymous)],
method: 'post',
path: '/storage-s3-generate-signed-url-1'
},
{
handler: [AsyncFunction (anonymous)],
method: 'post',
path: '/storage-s3-generate-signed-url-1'
}
```
As you can see, the path or the 3rd instance is the same as the 2nd
instance. Presumably this functionality was originally tested with 2
instances and not more, allowing this bug to slip through. This
completely breaks uploads for the 3rd instance.
We need to change the conditional that checks whether the plugin exists
already to use `.startsWith()`:
```ts
/**
* Tracks how many times the same handler was already applied.
* This allows to apply the same plugin multiple times, for example
* to use different buckets for different collections.
*/
let handlerCount = 0
for (const endpoint of config.endpoints) {
// We want to match on 'path', 'path-1', 'path-2', etc.
if (endpoint.path?.startsWith(serverHandlerPath)) {
handlerCount++
}
}
if (handlerCount) {
serverHandlerPath = `${serverHandlerPath}-${handlerCount}`
}
```
With the fix we can see that the endpoints increment correctly, allowing
for a true arbitrary number of s3Storage plugins with client uploads.
```ts
{
handler: [AsyncFunction (anonymous)],
method: 'post',
path: '/storage-s3-generate-signed-url'
},
{
handler: [AsyncFunction (anonymous)],
method: 'post',
path: '/storage-s3-generate-signed-url-1'
},
{
handler: [AsyncFunction (anonymous)],
method: 'post',
path: '/storage-s3-generate-signed-url-2'
}
```
The form component's `initializing` and `processing` states do not
disable fields that are rendered outside of `DocumentFields`. Fields
currently rely on the `readOnly` prop provided by `DocumentFields` and
do not subscribe to these states for themselves. This means that fields
that are rendered outright, such as within the bulk edit drawer, they do
not receive a `readOnly` prop and are therefore never disabled.
The fix is add a `disabled` property to the `useField` hook. This
subscribes to the `initializing` and `processing` states in the same way
as `DocumentFields`, however, now each field can determine its own
disabled state instead of relying solely on the `readOnly` prop. Adding
this new prop has no overhead as `processing` and `initializing` is
already being subscribed to within `useField`.
### What?
This PR optimizes how images are selected for display in the upload list
view. It ensures that only image files are processed and selects the
most appropriate size to minimize unnecessary downloads and improve
performance.
#### Previously:
- Non-image files were being processed unnecessarily, despite not
generating thumbnails.
- Images without a `thumbnailURL` defaulted to their original full size,
even when smaller, optimized versions were available.
#### Now:
- **Only images** are processed for thumbnails, avoiding redundant
requests for non-images.
- **The smallest available image within a target range** (`40px -
180px`) is prioritized for display.
- **If no images fit within this range**, the logic selects:
- The next smallest larger image (if available).
- The **original** image if it is smaller than the next available larger
size.
- The largest **smaller** image if no better fit exists.
### Why?
Prevents unnecessary downloads of non-image files, reduces bandwidth
usage by selecting more efficient image sizes and improves load times
and performance in the list view.
### How?
- **Filters out non-image files** when determining which assets to
display.
- Uses a more precise selection algorithm to find the best-fit image
size:
- Prefers the smallest image within `40px - 180px`.
- Falls back to the closest match above or below the range if no
in-range image exists.
- Ensures the original image is only used when it provides a better fit.

Implements a select-like API into the form state endpoint. This follows
the same spec as the Select API on existing Payload operations, but
works on form state rather than at the db level. This means you can send
the `select` argument through the form state handler, and it will only
process and return the fields you've explicitly identified.
This is especially useful when you only need to generate a partial form
state, for example within the bulk edit form where you select only a
subset of fields to edit. There is no need to iterate all fields of the
schema, generate default values for each, and return them all through
the network. This will also simplify and reduce the amount of
client-side processing required, where we longer need to strip
unselected fields before submission.
### What
This PR ensures that `select` and `radio` field option labels properly
accept and render JSX elements.
### Why
Previously, JSX elements could be passed as option labels, but the type
definition for options only allowed `LabelFunction` or `StaticLabel`,
resulting in type errors. Additionally:
- JSX labels did not render correctly in the list view but now do.
- In the versions diff view, JSX labels were not supported since it only
accepts strings. To address this, we now fallback to the option `value`
when the label is a JSX element.
Sometimes I need to add some classes to the `picture` tag of Media
component. in this case I need to do this:
```
<Media
resource={content.image}
className="w-full h-full [&>picture]:w-full" // <<< follow this
imgClassName="w-full h-full object-cover"
/>
```
So I added an additional props `pictureClassName` for the picture tag.
Now I can do this:
```
<Media
resource={content.image}
className="w-full h-full"
pictureClassName="w-full h-full" // <<< follow this
imgClassName="w-full h-full object-cover"
/>
```
NOTE: I've encountered situations where I needed to add classes to the
`picture` tag, not just for `w-full h-full`. To handle this, I had to
update the Media component. I believe this would be a valuable
improvement to the Media component.
### What?
Adds a new property to collection / global config `forceSelect` which
can be used to ensure that some fields are always selected, regardless
of the `select` query.
### Why?
This can be beneficial for hooks and access control, for example imagine
you need the value of `data.slug` in your hook.
With the following query it would be `undefined`:
`?select[title]=true`
Now, to solve this you can specify
```
forceSelect: {
slug: true
}
```
### How?
Every operation now merges the incoming `select` with
`collectionConfig.forceSelect`.
Based on the current `packages/ui/src/providers/DocumentInfo/types.ts`.
- Removes properties like `versions`, `unpublishedVersions`,
`publishedDoc`, `getVersions` from the docs, which were listed in the
docs, but not in the type definition.
- Adds properties like `savedDocumentData`, `setCurrentEditor`,
`setDocFieldPreferences`, etc., which are in the type definition, but
which were missing in the docs.
- Fixes that the description for `getDocPermissions` said it retrieves
"user preferences", but should be about permissions.
### What?
Prevents the preventLeave dialog from showing if a clicked link is about
to open in a new tab.
### Why?
Currently, no external link can be clicked on the edit page if it was
modified, even if the link would not navigate the user away from that
page but open in a new tab instead.
### How?
We don't trigger the preventLeave dialog if
- the target of a clicked anchor is `_blank`
- the user pressed the command or ctrl key while clicking on a link
(which opens link in a new tab)
The task queue triggers an infinite render of form state. This is
because we return an object from the `useQueues` hook that is recreated
on every render. We then use the `queueTask` function as an unstable
dependency of the `useEffect` responsible for requesting new form state,
ultimately triggering an infinite rendering loop.
The fix is to stabilize the `queueTask` function within a `useCallback`.
Adds a test to prevent future regression.
Ensures all s3 sockets are cleaned up. Now passes through default
request handler options that `@smithy/node-http-handler` now handles
properly.
Fixes#6382
```ts
const defaultRequestHandlerOpts: NodeHttpHandlerOptions = {
httpAgent: {
keepAlive: true,
maxSockets: 100,
},
httpsAgent: {
keepAlive: true,
maxSockets: 100,
},
}
```
If you continue to have socket issues, you can customize any of the
options by setting `requestHandler` property on your s3 config. This
will take precedence if set.
```ts
requestHandler: {
httpAgent: {
maxSockets: 300,
keepAlive: true,
},
httpsAgent: {
maxSockets: 300,
keepAlive: true,
},
// Optional, only set these if you continue to see issues. Be wary of timeouts if you're dealing with large files.
// time limit (ms) for receiving response.
requestTimeout: 5_000,
// time limit (ms) for establishing connection.
connectionTimeout: 5_000,
}),
```

### What?

-->
### What?
The error toast shown on field errors was _greatly_ improved recently
with much clearer, more easily consumable messages. This PR adjusts a
minor issue when the format of the error message is such that there are
no subsequent field errors present.
### Why?
To prevent showing an extra `li` when there are no more field errors.
### How?
Previously, the error msg array was being constructed like so:
```ts
const [intro, errorsString] = message.split(':')
const errors = (errorsString || '')
.split(',')
.map((error) => error.replaceAll(' > ', ' → ').trim())
if (errors.length === 0) {
return {
message: intro,
}
}
...
```
This works fine. However, if the initial message split makes
`errorsString` undefined, as is the case where there are no subsequent
field errors, the `(errorsString || '').split(',')` will always return
an array with a single `""` element in it, making the check for
`errors.length === 0` unreachable. This PR checks if `errorsString` is
false-y first before doing further processing instead.
Before:

After:

This PR fixes an issue where the Sharp `.resize()` function would round
down an auto-scaled dimension when `fastShrinkOnLoad` was enabled
(enabled by default).
This caused slight discrepancies in height calculations in certain edge
cases.
Be default (`fastShrinkOnLoad: true`), Sharp:
- Uses the built-in shrink-on-load feature for JPEG and WebP
- It is an optimization that prioritizes speed over precision when
resizing images
By setting `fastShrinkOnLoad: false`, we force Sharp to:
- Perform a more accurate resize operation instead of relying on quick
pre-shrink methods.
### Before / Context:
- Upload an image with original dimensions of 1500 × 735
- Define an `imageSize` of the following:
```
{
name: 'thumbnail',
width: 300,
},
```
#### Calculation:
`originalAspectRatio = 1500 / 735 ≈ 2.04081632653`
`resizeHeight = 300 / 2.04081632653`
`resizeHeight = 147`
However, Sharp's `.resize()` calculation would output:
`resizeHeight = 146`
This lead to an error of:
```
[17:05:13] ERROR: extract_area: bad extract area
err: {
"type": "Error",
"message": "extract_area: bad extract area",
"stack":
Error: extract_area: bad extract area
}
```
### After:
Sharp's `.resize()` calculation now correctly outputs:
`resizeHeight = 147`
### What?
Improves Swedish translations throughout.
- There were several places where the automatic translations didn't make
sense, particularily around localization where "locale" was incorrectly
referred to as "Lokal" instead of "Språk". "Crop" being translated to
"Skörd" was another hilarious one ("Skörd" means crop as in harvest 😊).
- Most success messages were overly formal in Swedish with
"framgångsrikt" being used in an awkward fashion. I've shortened them to
be more to the point.
- Some shorter strings had incorrect capitalization, such as "Nytt
Lösenord". Swedish doesn't use that kind of capitalization, so "Nytt
lösenord" is correct.
- Replaced "Manöverpanel" as the word for "Dashboard" with "Översikt"
which is less awkward.
- Normalized loading toasts throughout so they all use dots at the end
to signify an ongoing action such as "Laddar..".
- Several other small improvements to make things more natural.
The blocks e2e tests were flaky due to how we conditionally render
fields as they enter the viewport. This prevented Playwright from every
reaching the target element when running
`locator.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded()`. This is especially flaky on pages
with many fields because the page size would continually grow as it was
scrolled.
To fix this there are new `scrollEntirePage` and `waitForPageStability`
helpers. Together, these will ensure that all fields are rendered and
fully loaded before we start testing. An early attempt at this was made
via `page.mouse.wheel(0, 1750)`, but this is an arbitrary pixel value
that is error prone and is not future proof.
These tests were also flaky by an attempt to trigger a form state action
before it was ready to receive events. The fix here is to disable any
buttons while the form is initializing and let Playwright wait for an
interactive state.
allow disabling indentation for specific nodes via IndentFeature
Usage:
```ts
editor: lexicalEditor({
features: ({ defaultFeatures }) => [
...defaultFeatures,
IndentFeature({
// the array must contain the "type" property of registered indentable nodes
disabledNodes: ['paragraph', 'listitem'],
}),
],
}),
```
The nodes "paragraph", "heading", "listitem", "quote" remain indentable
by default, even without `IndentFeature` registered.
In a future PR we will probably add the option to disable TabNode.

We now have the ability to define all page metadata for the admin panel
via the Payload Config as a result of #11593. This means we can now set
sensible defaults for additional properties, e.g. `noindex` and
`nofollow` on the `robots` property. Setting this will prevent these
pages from being indexed and appearing in search results.
Note that setting this property prevents _indexing_ these pages, but
does not prevent them from being _crawled_. To prevent crawling as well,
you must add a standalone `robots.txt` file to your root directory.
This simplifies and cleans up import map generation and adds support for turbopack, as well as the tsconfig `compilerOptions.basePath` property.
Previously, relative import paths looked like this:
```ts
import { TestComponent as ___ } from 'test/admin/components/TestComponent.js'
```
Paths like these will be resolved based on the `compilerOptions.baseUrl` path of your tsconfig.
This had 2 problems:
### baseUrl support
If your tsconfig baseUrl was not `"."`, this did not work, as the import map generator does not respect it
### Turbopack support
If Turbopack was used, certain import paths were not able to be resolved.
For example, if your component is outside the `baseDir`, the generated path looked like this:
```ts
import { TestComponent as ___ } from '/../test/admin/components/TestComponent.js'
```
This works fine in webpack, but breaks in turbopack.
## Solution
This PR ensures all import paths are relative, making them more predictable and reliable.
The same component will now generate the following import path which works in Turbopack and if a different `compilerOptions.basePath` property is set:
```ts
import { TestComponent as ___ } from '../../../test/admin/components/TestComponent.js'
```
It also adds unit tests
### What?
The Lithuanian i18n translations have the placeholders (i.e.
`{{label}}`) also translated. For example `{{label}}` to `{{žymė}}`
My guess is that this was caused by the `pnpm translateNewKeys` script
which feeds all of the strings to OpenAI. In the system message in
[translateText.ts#L15](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/translations/scripts/translateNewKeys/translateText.ts#L15)
there is nothing mentioning that it should not translate placeholders.
But I guess the AI was clever enough most of the time and not translated
them, leaving them as is. Because in the Lithuanian translation most
placeholders were correctly left as is, but a couple of them weren't.
I would have updated the system message, but I struggled to setup my
environment so that `pnpm translateNewKeys` would work (probably because
I'm on windows, idk). So I'm leaving the system message as is because I
can't test my changes, someone else should update it in another PR.
### Why?
Lithuanian messages weren't translated correctly.
### How?
Manually went through all of the used placeholders in in `lt.ts` and
updated the ones which were translated. Double checked using `en.ts`
file to see what was the original placeholder name.
Fixes#9858
# The problems
There were several issues with custom i18n typing in the documentation
that were not detected because they did not occur in non-strict ts mode.
1. `Config['i18n']['translations']` didn't work, because i18n is an
optional property. As described in
[#9858](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9858#issuecomment-2555814771),
some users were getting around this with
`NonNullable<Config['i18n']>['translations']`
2. [The trick being attempted in
`i18n`](36e152d69d/packages/payload/src/config/types.ts (L1034))
to customize and extend the `DefaultTranslationObject` does not work.
`i18n?: I18nOptions<{} | DefaultTranslationsObject> // loosen the type
here to allow for custom translations`.
If you want to verify this, you can use the following code example:
```ts
import type { Config } from 'payload'
const translation: NonNullable<Config['i18n']>['translations'] = {
en: {
authentication: {
aaaaa: 'aaaaa', // I chose `authentication.aaaa` to appear first in intellisense
}
},
}
translation.en?.authentication // Property 'authentication' does not
// exist on type '{} | { authentication: { account: string...
// so this option doesn't let you access the keys because of the join with `{}`,
// and even if it did, it's not adding `aaaa` as a key.
```
3. In places where the `t` function is exposed in a callback, you cannot
do what the documentation says:
`{ t }: { t: TFunction<CustomTranslationsKeys | DefaultTranslationKeys>
}`
The reason for this is that the callback is exposed as a `LabelFunction`
type but without type arguments, and as a default it uses
`DefaultTranslationKeys`, which does not allow additional keys.
If you want to verify this, you can use the following code example:
```ts
// Make sure to test this with ts in strict mode
const _labelFn: LabelFunction = ({ t }: { t: TFunction<'extraKey' | DefaultTranslationKeys> }) => ""
// Type '"extraKey"' is not assignable to type
// '"authentication:account" | ... 441 more ... | "version:versionCount"'.
```
# The solution
Point 1 is a documentation issue. We could use `NonNullable`, or expose
the `I18nOptions` type, or simply not define the custom translation type
(which makes sense because if you put it in the config, ts will warn you
anyway).
Points 2 and 3 should ideally be corrected at the type level, but it
would imply a breaking change.
For now, I have corrected them at the documentation level, using an
alternative for point 2 and a type cast for point 3.
Maybe in payload v4 we should revisit this.
Implements a form state task queue. This will prevent onChange handlers
within the form component from processing unnecessarily often, sometimes
long after the user has stopped making changes. This leads to a
potentially huge number of network requests if those changes were made
slower than the debounce rate. This is especially noticeable on slow
networks.
Does so through a new `useQueue` hook. This hook maintains a stack of
events that need processing but only processes the final event to
arrive. Every time a new event is pushed to the stack, the currently
running process is aborted (if any), and that event becomes the next in
the queue. This results in a shocking reduction in the time it takes
between final change to form state and the final network response, from
~1.5 minutes to ~3 seconds (depending on the scenario, see below).
This likely fixes a number of existing open issues. I will link those
issues here once they are identified and verifiably fixed.
Before:
I'm typing slowly here to ensure my changes aren't debounce by the form.
There are a total of 60 characters typed, triggering 58 network requests
and taking around 1.5 minutes to complete after the final change was
made.

After:
Here there are a total of 69 characters typed, triggering 11 network
requests and taking only about 3 seconds to complete after the final
change was made.

Payload now fully exposes Next.js' metadata options. You can now use the
`admin.meta` config to set any properties that Next.js supports and
Payload will inject them into its `generateMetadata` function call. The
`MetaConfig` provided by Payload now directly extends the `Metadata`
type from Next.js.
Although `admin.meta` has always been available, it only supported a
subset of options, such as `title`, `openGraph`, etc., but was lacking
properties like `robots`, etc.
### What?
When the upload config contains imageSizes, we are forcing the image to
be resized using sharp. This leads to lossy compression even when the
formatOptions and no cropping or focal point selection was made. This
change makes it possible to upload the original image, skipping
compression while still using the imageSizes feature.
### Why?
It should be possible to upload files without compression.
### How?
Changes the conditions to remove imageSizes to determine if sharp image
processing should be applied to the original image or not.
This PR updates the field `validate` function property to include a new
`path` argument.
The `path` arg provides the schema path of the field, including array
indices where applicable.
#### Changes:
- Added `path: (number | string)[]` in the ValidateOptions type.
Close#11274
### Why this PR?
I've created a custom phone number input block for my form builder,
including validation. However, the component on the frontend only
displays the generic message "This field is required," even when
formState.errors contains specific error messages. This is not the
expected behavior. I need the component to display the error messages
from formState.errors.
### Description
This pull request includes changes to improve error handling in various
form components by passing the `name` prop to the `Error` component and
updating the `Error` component to display specific error messages.

Modified to pass the `name` prop to the `Error` component.
Previously, `db.updateVersion` had a mistake with using `transform({
operation: 'write' })` instead of `transform({ operation: 'read' })`
which led to improper DB data sanitization (like ObjectID -> string,
Date -> string) when calling `payload.update` with `autosave: true` when
some other autosave draft already exists. This fixes
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11542 additionally for this
case.
### What? Cannot generate GraphQL schema with hyphenated field names
Using field names that do not adhere to the GraphQL `_a-z & A-Z`
standard prevent you from generating a schema, even though it will work
just fine everywhere else.
Example: `my-field-name` will prevent schema generation.
### How? Field name sanitization on generation and querying
This PR adds sanitization to the schema generation that sanitizes field
names.
- It formats field names in a GraphQL safe format for schema generation.
**It does not change your config.**
- It adds resolvers for field names that do not adhere so they can be
mapped from the config name to the GraphQL safe name.
Example:
- `my-field` will turn into `my_field` in the schema generation
- `my_field` will resolve from `my-field` when data comes out
### Other notes
- Moves code from `packages/graphql/src/schema/buildObjectType.ts` to
`packages/graphql/src/schema/fieldToSchemaMap.ts`
- Resolvers are only added when necessary: `if (formatName(field.name)
!== field.name)`.

### What?
This [PR](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11546) introduced a
bug where the `CopyToLocale` button can show up when localization is
false.
### Why?
`const disableCopyToLocale = localization &&
collectionConfig?.admin?.disableCopyToLocale` this line was faulty
### How?
Fixed the logic and added test to confirm button doesn't show when
localization is false.
### What?
We have the option to set `displayPreview: true || false` on upload
collections / upload fields - with the **field** option taking
precedence.
Currently, `displayPreview` is only affecting the list view for the
**_related_** collection.
i.e. if you go to a collection that has an upload field - the preview
will be hidden/shown correctly according to the `displayPreview` option.
<img width="620" alt="Screenshot 2025-03-03 at 12 38 18 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c11c2a84-0f64-4a08-940e-8c3f9096484b"
/>
However, when you go directly to the upload collection and look at the
list view - the preview is always shown, not affected by the
`displayPreview` option.
<img width="446" alt="Screenshot 2025-03-03 at 12 39 24 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f5e1267a-d98a-4c8c-8d54-93dea6cd2e31"
/>
Also, we have previews within the file field itself - also not being
affected by the `displayPreview` option.
<img width="528" alt="Screenshot 2025-03-03 at 12 40 06 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3dd04c9a-3d9f-4823-90f8-b538f3d420f9"
/>
All the upload related previews (excluding preview sizes and upload
editing options) should be affected by the `displayPreview` option.
### How?
Checks for `collection.displayPreview` and `field.displayPreview` in all
places where previews are displayed.
Closes#11404
Two small separate issues here (1) and (2):
### What?
1. Excess margin is displayed when a row is hidden due to
`admin.condition`
2. The `admin.style` props is never passed to the `row` field
### Why?
1. Unlike other fields, the `row` field still gets rendered when
`admin.condition` returns false - this is because the logic gets passed
down to the fields within the row
2. `style` was never being threaded to the `row` field wrapper
### How?
1. Hides the row using css to `display: none` when no children are
present
2. Passes `admin.styles` to the `row` wrapper
Fixes#11477
### What?
Adds new option to disable the `copy to locale` button, adds description
to docs and adds e2e test.
### Why?
Client request.
### How?
The option can be used like this:
```ts
// in collection config
admin: {
disableCopyToLocale: true,
},
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11568
### What? Out of sync errors states
- Collaspibles & Tabs were not reporting accurate child error counts
- Arrays could get into a state where they would not update their error
states
- Slight issue with toasts
### Tabs & Collapsibles
The logic for determining matching field paths was not functioning as
intended. Fields were attempting to match with paths such as `_index-0`
which will not work.
### Arrays
The form state was not updating when the server sent back errorPaths.
This PR adds `errorPaths` to `serverPropsToAccept`.
### Toasts
Some toasts could report errors in the form of `my > > error`. This
ensures they will be `my > error`
### Misc
Removes 2 files that were not in use:
- `getFieldStateFromPaths.ts`
- `getNestedFieldState.ts`
The Payload Admin Bar is now maintained in core and released under the
`@payloadcms` scope thanks to #3684. All templates and examples that
rely on this package now install from here and have been migrated
accordingly.
This change makes so that data that exists in MongoDB but isn't defined
in the Payload config won't be included to `payload.find` /
`payload.db.find` calls. Now we strip all the additional keys.
Consider you have a field named `secretField` that's also `hidden: true`
(or `read: () => false`) that contains some sensitive data. Then you
removed this field from the database and as for now with the MongoDB
adapter this field will be included to the Local API / REST API results
without any consideration, as Payload doesn't know about it anymore.
This also fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11542 if
you removed / renamed a relationship field from the schema, Payload
won't sanitize ObjectIDs back to strings anymore.
Ideally you should create a migration script that completely removes the
deleted field from the database with `$unset`, but people rarely do
this.
If you still need to keep those fields to the result, this PR allows you
to do this with the new `allowAdditionalKeys: true` flag.
- Adds support for numeric canary versions ie. `3.28.0-canary.0`,
subsequent prereleases will increment accordingly (like Next.js)
- _Our old way of doing canary releases_ is still available but will now
be tagged as `internal` ex. `3.28.0-internal.shorthash`
- Releases are triggered via workflow dispatch in Actions. Triggers off
of main will be released as `canary`, all others will be `internal`.
This adds a new `disableAutoLinks` property to the `LinkFeature` that lets you disable the automatic creation of links while typing them in the editor or pasting them.
Deprecates the old HTML converter and introduces a new one that functions similarly to our Lexical => JSX converter.
The old converter had the following limitations:
- It imported the entire lexical bundle
- It was challenging to implement. The sanitized lexical editor config had to be passed in as an argument, which was difficult to obtain
- It only worked on the server
This new HTML converter is lightweight, user-friendly, and works on both server and client. Instead of retrieving HTML converters from the editor config, they can be explicitly provided to the converter function.
By default, the converter expects populated data to function properly. If you need to use unpopulated data (e.g., when running it from a hook), you also have the option to use the async HTML converter, exported from `@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/html-async`, and provide a `populate` function - this function will then be used to dynamically populate nodes during the conversion process.
## Example 1 - generating HTML in your frontend
```tsx
'use client'
import type { SerializedEditorState } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/lexical'
import { convertLexicalToHTML } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/html'
import React from 'react'
export const MyComponent = ({ data }: { data: SerializedEditorState }) => {
const html = convertLexicalToHTML({ data })
return <div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: html }} />
}
```
## Example - converting Lexical Blocks
```tsx
'use client'
import type { MyInlineBlock, MyTextBlock } from '@/payload-types'
import type {
DefaultNodeTypes,
SerializedBlockNode,
SerializedInlineBlockNode,
} from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
import type { SerializedEditorState } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/lexical'
import {
convertLexicalToHTML,
type HTMLConvertersFunction,
} from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/html'
import React from 'react'
type NodeTypes =
| DefaultNodeTypes
| SerializedBlockNode<MyTextBlock>
| SerializedInlineBlockNode<MyInlineBlock>
const htmlConverters: HTMLConvertersFunction<NodeTypes> = ({ defaultConverters }) => ({
...defaultConverters,
blocks: {
// Each key should match your block's slug
myTextBlock: ({ node, providedCSSString }) =>
`<div style="background-color: red;${providedCSSString}">${node.fields.text}</div>`,
},
inlineBlocks: {
// Each key should match your inline block's slug
myInlineBlock: ({ node, providedStyleTag }) =>
`<span${providedStyleTag}>${node.fields.text}</span$>`,
},
})
export const MyComponent = ({ data }: { data: SerializedEditorState }) => {
const html = convertLexicalToHTML({
converters: htmlConverters,
data,
})
return <div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: html }} />
}
```
## Example 3 - outputting HTML from the collection
```ts
import type { HTMLConvertersFunction } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/html'
import type { MyTextBlock } from '@/payload-types.js'
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
import {
BlocksFeature,
type DefaultNodeTypes,
lexicalEditor,
lexicalHTMLField,
type SerializedBlockNode,
} from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
const Pages: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'pages',
fields: [
{
name: 'nameOfYourRichTextField',
type: 'richText',
editor: lexicalEditor(),
},
lexicalHTMLField({
htmlFieldName: 'nameOfYourRichTextField_html',
lexicalFieldName: 'nameOfYourRichTextField',
}),
{
name: 'customRichText',
type: 'richText',
editor: lexicalEditor({
features: ({ defaultFeatures }) => [
...defaultFeatures,
BlocksFeature({
blocks: [
{
interfaceName: 'MyTextBlock',
slug: 'myTextBlock',
fields: [
{
name: 'text',
type: 'text',
},
],
},
],
}),
],
}),
},
lexicalHTMLField({
htmlFieldName: 'customRichText_html',
lexicalFieldName: 'customRichText',
// can pass in additional converters or override default ones
converters: (({ defaultConverters }) => ({
...defaultConverters,
blocks: {
myTextBlock: ({ node, providedCSSString }) =>
`<div style="background-color: red;${providedCSSString}">${node.fields.text}</div>`,
},
})) as HTMLConvertersFunction<DefaultNodeTypes | SerializedBlockNode<MyTextBlock>>,
}),
],
}
```
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10794 added new defaults the config - however, these were only added to the deprecated `defaults` object, which caused our CI to fail. This PR adds them to the new `addDefaultsToConfig` function
This PR adds a top-level `auth` property to the Payload config, where
you can specify a new `jwtOrder` property to dictate, in Payload's local
auth strategy, which JWT extraction methods should be leveraged, and in
which order.
For example, we currently use incoming request headers to retrieve a JWT
in the following order:
1. If there is an `Authorization: JWT ${token}` header
2. If there is an `Authorization: Bearer ${token}` header
3. If there is an HTTP-only cookie with a token present
Now you can define which of these strategies you'd like to support, and
in which order.
Todo:
- [ ] Docs
- [ ] Tests
Previously when `authenticate` method from an authentication strategy
failed it stopped execution of the current request in
`createPayloadRequest` which isn't a good behavior.
Right now it completely prevents the admin panel from loading:
<img width="637" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7a6ca006-7457-4f9f-8746-7b3f52d65583"
/>
Now, each `strategy.authenticate` call is wrapped into `try` / `catch`,
if an error happens we use `logError` to correctly log that error by its
logging level.
Imports https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-admin-bar into the Payload
monorepo. This package will now be regularly maintained directly
alongside all Payload packages and now includes its own test suite.
A few changes minor have been made between v1.0.7 and latest:
1. The package name has changed from `payload-admin-bar` to
`@payloadcms/admin-bar`.
```diff
- import { PayloadAdminBar } from 'payload-admin-bar'
+ import { PayloadAdminBar } from '@payloadcms/admin-bar'
```
2. The `collection` prop has been renamed to `collectionSlug`
3. The `authCollection` prop has been renamed to `authCollectionSlug`
Here's a screenshot of the admin bar in use within the Website Template:

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11473
Previously, when `disablePayloadAccessControl: true` was defined, client
uploads were working improperly. The reason is that
`addDataAndFileToRequest` expects `staticHandler` to be defined and we
don't add in case if `disablePayloadAccessControl: true`.
This PR makes it so otherwise and if we have `clientUploads`, it pushes
the "proxied" handler that responses only when the file was requested in
the context of client upload (from `addDataAndFileToRequest`)
### What?
Regression caused by https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11433
If a beforeChange hook was checking for a missing or undefined `value`
in order to change the value before inserting into the database, data
could be lost.
### Why?
In #11433 the logic for setting the fallback field value was moved above
the logic that cleared the value when access control returned false.
### How?
This change ensures that the fallback value is passed into the
beforeValidate function _and_ still available with the fallback value on
siblingData if access control returns false.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11543
Adds a new `admin.disableBlockName` property that allows you to disable
the blockName field entirely in the admin view. It defaults to false for
backwards compatibility.

This PR removes two links from a time where there was two distinct

This PR updates the field `condition` function property to include a new
`path` argument.
The `path` arg provides the schema path of the field, including array
indices where applicable.
#### Changes:
- Added `path: (number | string)[]` in the Condition type.
- Updated relevant condition checks to ensure correct parameter usage.
When rendering views within a drawer outside of the edit view, i.e. from
the list view, it updates the underlying step nav to the collection of
the drawer. This is true for both document drawers and list drawers.
This is because the logic controlling this behavior relies on the
current edit depth, which is only incremented within the edit view
itself. Instead of doing this, we can conditionally run the setter
functions based the presence of a drawer slug.
An alternative to this would be to subscribe to the `drawerDepth`
context but this would be less efficient, as this requires an
unnecessary hook and subsequent rendering cycle.
Cleans up various Payload-generated configs, namely:
- Renames config entry files from `preferencesCollection.ts`,
`lockedDocumentsCollection.ts`, and `jobsCollection.ts` to `config.ts`
- Standardizes collection slugs for `payload-preferences`,
`payload-locked-documents`, and `payload-jobs` and reuses everywhere
- Renames camel-cased `payloadPreferences` directory to kebab case, i.e.
`payload-preferences`
Client uploads were always enabled because a wrong variable was used,
when passing `enabled` to `initClientUploads`,
`gcsStorageOptions.enabled` instead of `gcsStorageOptions.clientUploads`
To enable client uploads with GCS you also additionally need to
configure CORS on Google Cloud, therefore this change breaks existing

### What?
This PR adds ability to define indexes on several fields for collections
(compound indexes).
Example:
```ts
{
indexes: [{ unique: true, fields: ['title', 'group.name'] }]
}
```
### Why?
This can be used to either speed up querying/sorting by 2 or more fields
at the same time or to ensure uniqueness between several fields.
### How?
Implements this logic in database adapters. Additionally, adds a utility
`getFieldByPath`.
By default, Payload only attempts to locate the import map file in the following locations:
- `src/app/(payload)/{adminroute}/importMap.js`
- `app/(payload)/{adminroute}/importMap.js`
This is fine for most projects, but sometimes you may want to place the import map - or the Payload admin directory - somewhere else.
This PR adds a new `importMapFile` property that allows you to override this heuristic and specify your own import map path.

If `experimental.fullySpecified` is set to `true` in the next config, the Payload admin panel fails to compile, throwing the following error:
```ts
Failed to compile.

The issue stems from incorrect import statements in `react-diff-viewer-continued` 4.0.4. This was fixed in `react-diff-viewer-continued` 4.0.5.

Adding usage of `ScribeMD/docker-cache` to cache the mongodb image.
We utilize the
[supercharge/mongodb-github-action](https://github.com/supercharge/mongodb-github-action)
for pulling and starting our mongo image. This would at times cause `You
have reached your unauthenticated pull rate limit` errors because of how
many jobs our CI spins up at one time.
Deep‐merging the collection config defaults during sanitization causes all collection fields to end up with different object references. This is not only slow, but can also lead to unpredictable behavior: mutations made before collection sanitization are reflected in the field config, while mutations made afterward, using the same object reference, are not reflected in the collection’s field config.
Specifically, the following happened:
1. A Block was defined in the module scope.
2. It was then added to both a collection’s blocks field and the config.blocks property.
3. Rich text sanitization promises for config.blocks were collected.
4. The collection config was sanitized.
5. The config.blocks sanitization promises were awaited.
6. Rich text fields were sanitized in config.blocks, but ended up not being sanitized in the collection config referencing the same block, because the object reference held by the promise callback no longer matched the collection config’s object reference. The collection config block did not create its own rich text sanitization promise, as `_sanitized: true` was set on the block during the earlier config.blocks sanitization, which skipped it.
Our config defaults pattern was brittle in general. It’s easy to misuse object spreading or to mutate the config defaults later when you intended only to mutate the payload or collection config. Our current approach was vulnerable to this because it retained some object references from the config defaults.
This PR introduces reliable merge functions that are faster and ensure no object references are shared with defaults that reside in the module scope.
### What?
Supersedes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11490.
Refactors imports of `formatAdminURL` to import from `payload/shared`
instead of `@payloadcms/ui/shared`. The ui package now imports and
re-exports the function to prevent this from being a breaking change.
### Why?
This makes it easier for other packages/plugins to consume the
`formatAdminURL` function instead of needing to implement their own or
rely on the ui package for the utility.
When uploading file via client side upload we invalidate it then on the
server side with re-uploading. This works fine with most adapters since
they just replace the old file under the same key. UploadThing works
differently and generates a new key every time.
Example of the issue:
<img width="611" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9c01b52a-d159-4f32-9f66-3b5fbadab7b4"
/>
Now, we clear the old file before doing re-upload.
Previously, collections with similar names (e.g., `uploads` and
`uploads-poly`) both appeared active when viewing either collection.
This was due to `pathname.startsWith(href)`, which caused partial
matches.
This update refines the `isActive` logic to prevent partial matches.
Previously, AVIF images were not converted to other file types as
expected, despite `upload.formatOptions` specifying a different file
type.
The issue was due to `canResizeImage` not recognizing `'image/avif',`
causing `fileSupportsResize` to return `false` and preventing the image
from undergoing format conversion.
This fix updates `canResizeImage` to include `'image/avif'`, ensuring
that AVIF images are processed correctly and converted to a different
file type when specified in `formatOptions`.
Fixes#10694Fixes#9985
### What
Clarifies that `sharp` must be specified in payload config for image
resizing & cropping to work. Also adds link to the configuration page
for further information.
### Why
It is not immediately clear from this single documentation page alone.
While it says that the feature relies on sharp, it does not say that it
must be added to config. Most people won't probably run into this since
they're probably going to use `create-payload-app`, which configures
sharp by default. But those who use custom config (like me) may be left
wondering why this feature does not work.

working](https://payloadcms.com/community-help/discord/crop-images-and-preview-sizes-not-working)

### What?
There were a couple issues with the implementation within the example
when using postgres.
- `ensureUniqueUsername` tenant was being extracted incorrectly, should
not constrain query unless it was present
- `ensureUniqueSlug` was querying by NaN when tenant was not present on
data or originalDoc
- `users` read access was not correctly extracting the tenant id in the
correct type depending on DB

The `payload-admin-bar` now supports React 19 as a result of
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-admin-bar/pull/13. This will
suppress the React 19 warnings on install within the website templates

This update improves the `Environment Info` section in the issue

Our previous `RichTextWithoutBlocks` import alias was confusing - this PR changes it to `ConvertRichText`. This should make it clear that that's the imported RichText component that performs the editor state => JSX conversion
Our `no-imports-from-self` eslint rule was supposed to cache the package.json name to ensure it doesn't try to find and read the package.json for every single import statement.
Turns out that cache was never used. Credits to @etrepum for [finding this issue](https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/7272#discussion_r1976666227)
This PR exports a new `editorConfigFactory` that provides multiple standardized ways to retrieve the editor configuration needed for the Lexical editor.
## Why this is needed
Getting the editor config is required for converting the lexical editor state into/from different formats, as it's needed to create a headless editor. While we're moving away from requiring headless editor instantiation for common format conversions, some conversion types and other use cases still require it.
Currently, retrieving the editor config is cumbersome - you either need an existing field to extract it from or the payload config to create it from scratch, with multiple approaches for each method.
## What this PR does
The `editorConfigFactory` consolidates all possible ways to retrieve the editor config into a single factory with clear methods:
```ts
editorConfigFactory.default()
editorConfigFactory.fromField()
editorConfigFactory.fromUnsanitizedField()
editorConfigFactory.fromFeatures()
editorConfigFactory.fromEditor()
```
This results in less code, simpler implementation, and improved developer experience. The PR also adds documentation for all retrieval methods.
The "where" builder maintains its own duplicative state for conditions.
This is problematic when an outside force needs to control the
conditions in some way, but the "where" builder will not receive those
updates.
While it is a requirement of the "where" builder to transform the
"where" query into "and" / "or" format for rendering, it does so in a
way that causes it to become out of sync with the query provider. This
is because we first initialize state from context, then for every change
to conditions, report those updates to contexts—but not the other way
around.
To fix this, we need to completely remove state from the "where" builder
and solely rely on the query context as a single source of truth. This
will allow it to receive automatic updates from query provider without
needing to sync both local state and context simultaneously. Now, we
only ever need to send updates to the query provider and let the
top-down rendering cycle propagate those changes everywhere.
Previously, lexical blocks initialized a new `Form` component that rendered as `<form>` in the DOM. This may lead to React errors, as forms nested within forms is not valid HTML.
This PR changes them to render as `<div>` in the DOM instead.
When the join field is used, Payload now automatically adds an index on
the target relationship field.
For example:
```
{
name: 'relatedPosts',
type: 'join',
collection: "posts",
on: 'category',
},
{
name: 'category',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: "categories",
},
```
Here, `index: true` implicitly added to the `category` relationship
field during sanitization to improve querying performance.
Migrates the `db-mongodb` package to use `strict: true` and
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess: true` TSConfig properties.
This greatly improves code quality and prevents some runtime errors or
gives better error messages.
When bulk editing an auth-enabled collection such as users, a
client-side exception is thrown. This is because we're trying to access
the `disableBulkEdit` property on `undefined`. This is due to hidden,
auth-specific fields like `salt` and `hash` lacking an admin config.
No test is explicitly needed for this as `"strictNullChecks": true` will
throw an error at compile time, once enabled.
### What?
Fixes client uploads when storage collection config has the `prefix`
property configured. Previously, it failed with "Object key was not
found".
### Why?
This is expected to work.
### How?
The client upload handler now receives to its props `prefix`. Then it
threads it to the server-side `staticHandler` through
`clientUploadContext` and then to `getFilePrefix`, which checks for
`clientUploadContext.prefix` and returns if there is.
Previously, `staticHandler` tried to load the file without including
prefix consideration.
This changes only these adapters:
* S3
* Azure
* GCS
With the Vercel Blob adapter, `prefix` works correctly.
This fixes an issue where the active collection nav item was
non-clickable inside documents. Now, it remains clickable when viewing a
document, allowing users to return to the list view from the nav items
in the sidebar.
The active state indicator still appears in both cases.
The `req.url` property at the page level was not reflective of the
actual URL on localhost. This was because we were passing an
incompatible `url` override into `createLocalReq` (lacking protocol).
This would silently fail to construct the URL object, ultimately losing
the top-level domain on `req.url` as well as the port on `req.origin`
(see #11454).
Closes#11448.
This adds new `payload.jobs.cancel` and `payload.jobs.cancelByID` methods that allow you to cancel already-running jobs, or prevent queued jobs from running.
While it's not possible to cancel a function mid-execution, this will stop job execution the next time the job makes a request to the db, which happens after every task.
### What?
The `locale selector` in the version comparison view shows all locales
on first load. It does not accomodate the `filterAvailableLocales`
option and shows locales which should be filtered.
### How?
Pass the initial locales through the `filterAvailableLocales` function.
Closes#11408
#### Testing
Use test suite `localization` and the `localized-drafts` collection.
Test added to `test/localization/e2e`.
The `req.origin` property on the `PayloadRequest` object does not
include the port when running on localhost, a requirement of the [HTML
Living Standard](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#origin). This was because
we were initializing the url with a fallback of `http://localhost` (no
port). When constructed via `new URL()`, the port is unable to be
extracted. This is fixed by using the `host` property off the headers
object, if it exists, which includes the port.
Partial fix for #11448.
This PR significantly improves performance when navigating through the admin panel by reducing the number of times `initReq` is called. Previously, `initReq`—which handles expensive tasks like initializing Payload and running access control—was called **three times** for a single page load (for the root layout, the root page, and the notFound page).
We initially tried to use React Cache to ensure `initReq` only ran once per request. However, because React Cache performs a shallow object reference check on function arguments, the configuration object we passed (`configPromise`) and the `overrides` object never maintained the same reference, causing the cache to miss.
### What’s Changed
* **New `getInitReqContainer` Helper**
We introduced a helper that provides a stable object reference throughout the entire request. This allows React to properly cache the output, ensuring `initReq` doesn’t get triggered multiple times by mistake.
* **Splitting `initReq` into Two Functions**
The `initReq` logic was split into:
* **`initPartialReq`:** Runs only **once** per request, handling tasks that do not depend on page-level data (e.g., calling `.auth`, which performs a DB request).
* **`initReq`:** Runs **twice** (once for Layout+NotFound page and once for main page), handling tasks, most notably access control, that rely on page-level data such as locale or query parameters. The NotFound page will share the same req as the layout page, as it's not localized, and its access control wouldn't need to access page query / url / locale, just like the layout.
* **Remove duplicative logic**
* Previously, a lot of logic was run in **both** `initReq` **and** the respective page / layout. This was completely unnecessary, as `initReq` was already running that logic. This PR returns the calculated variables from `initReq`, so they don't have to be duplicatively calculated again.
### Performance Gains
* Previously:
* `.auth` call ran **3 times**
* Access control ran **3 times**
* Now:
* `.auth` call runs **1 time**
* Access control runs **2 times**
This change yields a noticeable performance improvement by cutting down on redundant work.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9767
We allow failing a job queue task by returning `{ state: 'failed' }` from the task, instead of throwing an error. However, previously, this threw an error when trying to update the task in the database. Additionally, it was not possible to customize the error message.
This PR fixes that by letting you return `errorMessage` alongside `{ state: 'failed' }`, and by ensuring the error is transformed into proper json before saving it to the `error` column.
Ensures that even if you pass `enabled: false` to the storage adapter
options, e.g:
```ts
s3Storage({
enabled: false,
collections: {
[mediaSlug]: true,
},
bucket: process.env.S3_BUCKET,
config: {
credentials: {
accessKeyId: process.env.S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
secretAccessKey: process.env.S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
},
},
})
```
the client handler component is added to the import map. This prevents
errors when you use the adapter only on production, but you don't
regenerate the import map before running the build
This PR updates the reproduction guide to reference
`create-payload-app@latest -t blank` instead of `@beta`, ensuring users

Maintains column state in the URL. This makes it possible to share
direct links to the list view in a specific column order or active
column state, similar to the behavior of filters. This also makes it
possible to change both the filters and columns in the same rendering
cycle, a requirement of the "list presets" feature being worked on here:
#11330.
For example:
```
?columns=%5B"title"%2C"content"%2C"-updatedAt"%2C"createdAt"%2C"id"%5D
```
The `-` prefix denotes that the column is inactive.
This strategy performs a single round trip to the server, ultimately
simplifying the table columns provider as it no longer needs to request
a newly rendered table for itself. Without this change, column state
would need to be replaced first, followed by a change to the filters.
This would make an unnecessary number of requests to the server and
briefly render the UI in a stale state.
This all happens behind an optimistic update, where the state of the
columns is immediately reflected in the UI while the request takes place
in the background.
Technically speaking, an additional database query in performed compared
to the old strategy, whereas before we'd send the data through the
request to avoid this. But this is a necessary tradeoff and doesn't have
huge performance implications. One could argue that this is actually a
good thing, as the data might have changed in the background which would
not have been reflected in the result otherwise.
### What?
This PR reverts a presumably accidental change made in
[b80010b1a1](b80010b1a1),
that broke the email verification feature in v3.24.0 and onwards.
### Why?
Through the missing verify in `const [collectionSlug, verify, token] =
params.segments`, the token value was always the string `verify`
This PR adds a new `returning` option to various db adapter methods. Setting it to `false` where the return value is not used will lead to performance gains, as we don't have to do additional db calls to fetch the updated document and then sanitize it.
### What?
`value` within the beforeValidate field hook was not correctly falling
back to the document value when no value was passed inside the request
for the field.
### Why?
The fallback logic was running after the beforeValidate field hooks are
called.
### How?
Run the fallback logic before running the beforeValidate field hooks.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10923
When visiting a collection's list view, the nav item corresponding to
that collection correctly appears in an active state, but is still
rendered as an anchor tag. This makes it possible to reload the current
page by simply clicking the link, which is a problem because this
performs an unnecessary server roundtrip. This is especially apparent
when search params exist in the current URL, as the href on the link
does not.
Unrelated: also cleans up leftover code that was missed in this PR:
#11155
This PR resolves an issue where the `href` for the Logout button in the
admin panel included duplicate `basePath` values when `basePath` was set
in `next.config.js`.
The Logout button was recently updated to use `NextLink` (`next/link`),
which automatically applies the `basePath` from the Next.js
configuration. As a result, manually adding the `basePath` to the `href`
is no longer necessary.
Relevant PRs that modified this behavior originally:
- #9275
- #11155
### What?
The idea of this plugin is to only add constraints when a user is
present on a request. This change makes it so access control only
applies to admin panel users as they are the ones assigned to tenants.
This change allows you to more freely write access functions on tenant
enabled collections. Say you have 2 auth enabled collections, the plugin
would incorrectly assume since there is a user on the req that it needs
to apply tenant constraints. When really, you should be able to just add
in your own access check for `req.user.collection` and return true/false
if you want to prevent/allow other auth enabled collections for certain
operations.
```ts
import { Access } from 'payload'
const readByTenant: Access = ({ req }) => {
const { user } = req
if (!user || user.collection === 'auth2') return false
return true
}
```
When you have a function like this that returns `true` and the
collection is multi-tenant enabled - the plugin injects constraints
ensuring the user on the request is assigned to the tenant on the doc
being accessed.
Before this change, you would need to opt out of access control with
`useTenantAccess` and then wire up your own access function:
```ts
import type { Access } from 'payload'
import { getTenantAccess } from '@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant/utilities'
export const tenantAccess: Access = async ({ req: { user } }) => {
if (user) {
if (user.collection === 'auth2') {
return true
}
// Before, you would need to re-implement
// internal multi-tenant access constraints
if (user.roles?.includes('super-admin')) return true
return getTenantAccess({
fieldName: 'tenant',
user,
})
}
return false
}
```
After this change you would not need to opt out of `useTenantAccess` and
can just write:
```ts
import type { Access } from 'payload'
import { getTenantAccess } from '@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant/utilities'
export const tenantAccess: Access = async ({ req: { user } }) => {
return Boolean(user)
}
```
This is because internally the plugin will only add the tenant
constraint when the access function returns true/Where _AND_ the user
belongs to the admin panel users collection.

This PR introduces a new `useFormBackgroundProcessing` hook and a corresponding `setBackgroundProcessing` function in the `useForm` hook.
Unlike `useFormProcessing` / `setProcessing`, which mark the entire form as read-only, this new approach only disables the Publish button during autosaving, keeping form fields editable for a better user experience.
I named it `backgroundProcessing` because it should run behind the scenes without disrupting the user. You could argue that it is a bit more generic than something like `isAutosaving`, but it signals intent: Background = do not disrupt the user.
### What?
For the join field query adds ability to specify `count: true`, example:
```ts
const result = await payload.find({
joins: {
'group.relatedPosts': {
sort: '-title',
count: true,
},
},
collection: "categories",
})
result.group?.relatedPosts?.totalDocs // available
```
### Why?
Can be useful to implement full pagination / show total related
documents count in the UI.
### How?
Implements the logic in database adapters. In MongoDB it's additional
`$lookup` that has `$count` in the pipeline. In SQL, it's additional
subquery with `COUNT(*)`. Preserves the current behavior by default,
since counting introduces overhead.
Additionally, fixes a typescript generation error for join fields.
Before, `docs` and `hasNextPage` were marked as nullable, which is not
true, these fields cannot be `null`.
Additionally, fixes threading of `joinQuery` in
`transform/read/traverseFields` for group / tab fields recursive calls.
Added a new Reserved Field Names section to the migration guide.
Clarified that certain field names (`__v`, `salt`, `hash`, `file`, etc.)
are reserved for internal use and will be sanitized from the config if
used.
Included additional reserved names specific to `MongoDB`, `auth`-enabled
collections, and `upload`-enabled collections.
Added a note recommending against using field names with an underscore
(`_`) prefix, as they are reserved for internal columns and may cause
conflicts in `SQL` and other contexts.
Fixes#11159
This reverts commit 69c0d09 in #11390.
In order to future proof column prefs, it probably is best to continue
to use the current shape. This change was intended to ensure that as
little transformation to URL params was made as possible for #11387, but
we will likely transform them after all.
This will ensure that we can add support for additional properties over
time, as needed. For example, if we hypothetically wanted to add a
custom `label` or similar feature to columns prefs, it would make more
sense to use explicit properties to identity `accessor` and `active`.
For example:
```ts
[
{
accessor: "title",
active: true,
label: 'Custom Label' // hypothetical
}
]
```
This bumps next.js to 15.2.0 in our monorepo, as well as all @types/react and @types/react-dom versions. Additionally, it removes the obsolete `peerDependencies` property from our root package.json.
This PR also fixes 2 bugs introduced by Next.js 15.2.0. This highlights why running our test suite against the latest Next.js, to make sure Payload is compatible, version is important.
## 1. handleWhereChange running endlessly
Upgrading to Next.js 15.2.0 caused `handleWhereChange` to be continuously called by a `useEffect` when the list view filters were opened, leading to a React error - I did not investigate why upgrading the Next.js version caused that, but this PR fixes it by making use of the more predictable `useEffectEvent`.
## 2. Custom Block and Array label React key errors
Upgrading to Next.js 15.2.0 caused react key errors when rendering custom block and array row labels on the server. This has been fixed by rendering those with a key
## 3. Table React key errors
When rendering a `Table`, a React key error is thrown since Next.js 15.2.0
This PR improves existing JSX converter docs and adds 2 new sections:
- **converting internal links** - addresses why a `"found internal link, but internalDocToHref is not provided"` error is thrown, and how to get around it
- **Overriding default JSX Converters**
Lexical server features are able to add components to the import map through the `componentImports` property. As of now, the client feature did not have access to those. This is usually not necessary, as those import map entries are used internally to render custom components server-side, e.g. when a request to the form state endpoint is made.
However, in some cases, these import map entries need to be accessed by the client feature (see "Why" section below).
This PR ensures that keyed `componentImports` entries are made available to the client feature via the new `featureClientImportMap` property.
## Why?
This is a prerequisite of the lexical [wrapper blocks PR](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9289), where wrapper block custom components need to be made to the ClientFeature. The ClientFeature is where the wrapper block node is registered - in order to generate the wrapper block node, we need access to the component
Removes all unnecessary `page.waitForURL` methods within e2e tests.
These are unneeded when following a `page.goto` call because the
subsequent page load is already being awaited.
It is only a requirement when:
- Clicking a link and expecting navigation
- Expecting a redirect after a route change
- Waiting for a change in search params
Previously, behavior with custom IDs and `select` query was incorrect.
By default, the `id` field is guaranteed to be selected, even if it
doesn't exist in the `select` query, this wasn't true for custom IDs.
Previously, `updateOne` was using `buildFindManyArgs` and `findFirst` just to retrieve the ID of the document to update, which is a huge function that's not necessary to run just to get the document ID.
This PR refactors it to use a simple `db.select` query to retrieve the ID
This PR fixes an issue where bulk upload attempts to generate thumbnails
for non-image files, causing errors on the page.
The fix ensures that thumbnail generation is skipped for non-image
files, preventing unnecessary errors.

Transforms how column prefs are stored in the database. This change
reduces the complexity of the `columns` property by removing the
unnecessary `accessor` and `active` keys.
This change is necessary in order to [maintain column state in the
URL](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11387), where the state
itself needs to be as concise as possible. Does so in a non-breaking
way, where the old column shape is transformed as needed.
Here's an example:
Before:
```ts
[
{
accessor: "title",
active: true
}
]
```

### What?
Unable to update json fields externally. For example, calling `setValue`
on a json field would not be reflected in the admin panel UI.
### Why?
JSON fields use the monaco editor to manage state internally, so
programmatically updating the value in state does not change the
internal value.
### How?
Set a ref when the user updates the value and then unset the ref after
the change is complete.
Inside the hook that watches `value`, if the value changed and the
change came from the system (i.e. a programmatic change) refresh the
editor by adjusting its key prop. If the change was made by the user,
there is no need to refresh the editor.

Continuation of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11372 but for our collection, global and auth operations
Previously, we were quite frequently using `.reduce()` to run hooks. This PR replaces them with simple `for` loops, which is less overhead, less code, less confusing and simpler to understand.
Continuation of #11008. When `filterOptions` are set on a relationship
field that is _nested within another field_, those filter options are
not applied to `Filter` component in the list view. This is because we
were only shallowly resolving filter options on top-level fields, as
opposed to recursively traversing fields to resolve them even when
deeply nested.
Updated `formatBreadcrumb` to fall back to an empty string if the
`useAsTitle` field for the document is undefined.
This handles cases where the field is optional or not filled out,
ensuring the label is never `undefined`.
Fixes#10377
This PR ensures that when `titleField.label` is provided as an object,
it is correctly translated and displayed in the search filter's
placeholder.
Previously, the implementation only supported string values, which could
lead to issues with object type labels. With these changes, object type
labels will now properly show as intended in the search filter.
Fixes#11348
Previously, we were quite frequently using `.reduce()` to sequentially run field hooks. This PR replaces them with simple `for` loops, which is less overhead, less code, less confusing and simpler to understand.
Additionally, it refactors `mergeLocaleActions` which previously was unnecessarily complex. They no longer entail async code, thus we no longer have to juggle with promises
When blocks have custom row labels, those row labels become stale when
reordering blocks. After moving a block, for example, the row label will
jump back the original block until form state returns with the proper
rendering order. This is especially evident on slow networks.
### What?
Two things:
1. Users unassigned to a tenant could not access their own account
2. Custom `tenantsArrayFieldName` and `tenantsArrayTenantFieldName`
configurations were not being used in all cases
### Why?
1. The access constraint provided by the plugin would not allow them to
make changes to their own account
2. `getUserTenantIDs` and `afterTenantDelete` were not using the custom
field names properly
### How?
1. Adds constraint for users allowing them to manage their own account
by default. Externally nothing has changed. If you need to lock your
users access control down you should do that just as you would without
this plugin.
2. Threads the field names through for usage.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11317
### What?
The `plugin-nested-docs` returns an array of breadcrumbs - the
`resaveChildren` file accidentally processed the breadcrumbs twice, once
where the data is updated and once within the `populateBreadcrumbs`
function which was causing the objects to be double nested.
### How?
Removes the extra nesting from `resaveChildren` file and allows the
`populateBreadcrumbs` to return the final data.
Fixes#10855
### What?
Information that locale fields in database are changing to a simpler
data structure in v3.
### Why?
Simple data migration is not enough to get it working, I had to spend
quite some time to figure out migration files and still it required some
manual input. Maybe others will find it useful when starting a v3
migration.
### How?
I had to do some custom migration scripts on my own to get v3 to work
with existing pages data.

https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11359#issuecomment-2678213414
The link element by using startTransitionRoute and manually calling
router.push would technically cause links to be clicked twice, by not
preventing default browser behaviour.
This caused a problem on clicking /create links as it hit the route
twice. Added a test making sure Create new doesn't lead to abnormally
increased document counts
Changes:
- Added `e.preventDefault()` in our Link element
- Added `preventDefault` as an optional prop to this element so that
people can handle it on their own if needed via a custom `onClick`
Exports the `useTenantSelection` hook from the multi-tenant plugin, this
way other users can import and use the hook along with it's methods.
Can be imported:
```ts
import { useTenantSelection } from '@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant/client'
```
The context returned:
```ts
type ContextType = {
/**
* Array of options to select from
*/
options: OptionObject[]
/**
* The currently selected tenant ID
*/
selectedTenantID: number | string | undefined
/**
* Prevents a refresh when the tenant is changed
*
* If not switching tenants while viewing a "global", set to true
*/
setPreventRefreshOnChange: React.Dispatch<React.SetStateAction<boolean>>
/**
* Sets the selected tenant ID
*
* @param args.id - The ID of the tenant to select
* @param args.refresh - Whether to refresh the page after changing the tenant
*/
setTenant: (args: { id: number | string | undefined; refresh?: boolean }) => void
}
```
Small performance improvement for types generation and anywhere else
`configToJSONSchema` can be used.
We did a deep copy of the whole sanitized entity config, which can be
expensive. Now, to do the needed mutation of `flattenedFields`, we just
create a new reference of `flattenedFields` for that.
When rendering a list drawer, you can pass a custom `onSelect` callback
to execute when the user clicks on the linked cell within the table. The
underlying handler, however, only passes the `docID` and
`collectionSlug` args through the callback, rather than the document
itself. This makes it impossible to perform side-effects that require
the data of the row that was selected.
Instances of this callback were also largely untyped.
Needed for #11330.
Bulk edit controls are currently displayed within the search bar of the
list view. This doesn't make sense from a UX perspective, as the current
selection is displayed somewhere else entirely. These controls also take
up a lot of visual real estate which is beginning to get overused
especially after the introduction of "list menu items" in #11230, and
the potential introduction of "saved filters" controls in #11330.
Now, they are rendered contextually _alongside_ the selection count. To
make room for these new controls, they are displayed in plain text and
the entity labels have been removed from the selection count.
### What?
Updated `docker-compose.yml` to use `Postgres` by default, with
`MongoDB` commented out in the templates that are by default using the
postgres adapter.
Fixes#11322
`payload.find` queries can be made faster by specifying `limit: 1` and `pagination: false` when only the first document is needed. This PR applies those options to various queries to improve performance.
Previously, the `bin` configuration wasn't working at all.
Possibly because in an ESM environment this cannot work, because
`import` always returns an object with a default export under the
`module` key.
```ts
const script: BinScript = await import(pathToFileURL(userBinScript.scriptPath).toString())
await script(config)
```
Now, this works, but you must define a `script` export from your file.
Attached an integration test that asserts that it actually works. Added
documentation on how to use it, as previously it was missing.
This can be also helpful for plugins.
### Documentation
Using the `bin` configuration property, you can inject your own scripts
to `npx payload`.
Example for `pnpm payload seed`:
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.init({ config })
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',
},
],
})
```
Now you can run the script using:
```sh
pnpm payload seed
```
Improves performance and optimizes memory usage for mongodb adapter by
cutting down copying of results via `JSON.parse(JSON.stringify())`.
Instead, `transform` does necessary transformations (`ObjectID` ->
`string,` `Date` -> `string`) without any copying
Previously, we were calling `getNavPrefs` (a payload.find call) three times for every single page load.
This PR:
1. Ensures that `getNavPrefs` is called only once per page load, reducing two unnecessary `payload.find` calls every time a page is loaded or navigated to.
2. Adds `pagination: false` to the `payload.find` call, making it more efficient and improving performance.
## How?
We were using React's cache to ensure that navigation preferences (`getNavPrefs`) were fetched only once per request. However, this wasn't working as expected because the first argument of `getNavPrefs` was an object. Each time it was called, a new object reference was passed, preventing React from caching it properly.
To fix this, this PR ensures that only primitive values are used as arguments for caching, following best practices and making the cache function work as intended.
Just like https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11269, we stop passing through `req` to db operations in `checkDocumentLockStatus`.
After extensive testing, this seems to get rid of all transaction errors that occurred when I was testing autosave against a remote mongo DB.
We keep the `req` for postgres, as it mysteriously breaks in CI - this cannot be reproduced locally
## getPreferences function caching
Our `getPreferences` function used in the ui package is now wrapped in react cache, to minimize the amount of times it runs on a single request. This mimics the behavior of our other `getPreferences` function in the next package.
## getPreferences incorrect behavior
The `getPreferences` function in the next package was passing through the incorrect user slug. This would not have been noticeable in projects with just one users collection, but might break in projects with multiple users collections.
## getPreferences performance optimization
This PR adds `pagination: false` to the getPreferences payload.find() call, which will speed up the query.
## upsertPreferences transaction errors
Due to the potential of preference upsert operations running in parallel (e.g. when switching locales), this PR disables transactions in the preferences creation / update calls. This fixes the transaction errors reported in https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11310

### What?
Adds JSDoc for options of all collection Local API operations
_Every_ property now is documented there, even those that aren't on our
website docs.
### Why?
This is useful to have, now you can hover over any property to see what
it does in your editor.
Some properties also link to the documentation website directly for more
info.
### How?
Updates every collection operation arguments definition with JSDoc.
For globals will be a separate PR.

### What?
This PR introduces support for the `admin.group` property in block
configs. This property enables blocks to be grouped under a common,
potentially localized, label in the block drawer component. This makes
it easier to sort through large collections of blocks. Previously, all
blocks would be in one common layout.
This PR also encompasses documentation changes and e2e tests to check
for the rendering of group labels.
### Why?
To make it easier to organize many blocks in block fields.
### How?
By introducing a new `admin.group` property in block configs and
assembling them in the blocks drawer component.

Addresses #5609
When the new ConfirmationModal is used outside of the context of an
EditDepthProvider, it stacks behind currently open modals. This is
apparent when using it in custom views.
The fix is to build the confirm modal's depth off of drawerDepth instead
of editDepth.
`getRequestLocale` => `upsertPreferences` is already called as part of `initReq`, yet we were still unnecessarily calling `getRequestLocale` afterwards, which potentially resulted in at least one unnecessary `payload.find()` or `payload.update()` call.
### What?
Fixes translation errors that are thrown when JSON field validation
outputs an error.
### How?
Removes translation function `t()` from wrapping the errors and adds
translation keys that were missing from `clientKeys.ts`.
Fixes#10543
### What?
We had an `allowCreate` prop for the list drawer that doesn't do
anything. This PR passes the prop through so it can be used.
### How?
Passes `allowCreate` down to the list view and ties it with
`hasCreatePermission`
#### Testing
- Use `admin` test suite and `withListDrawer` collection.
- Test added to the `admin/e2e/list-view`.
Fixes#11246
### What?
Adding `assetPrefix` to the `next.config` prevents the hot module
reloading functionality.
### Why & How?
Need to incorporate `assetPrefix` into the URL generated for webpack
HMR.
Fixes#11150
#### Testing
1. Add `assetPrefix: '/test'` to the `next.config.mjs` in the root
folder
2. Run `pnpm test _community`
3. Go to the `_community/collections/posts` config and change a field
4. Open post collection in browser and see no change (if this PR is
checked out then you _**will**_ see the change)
### What?
This PR removes references to the `rateLimit` option from the
documentation, as it was deprecated in Payload v3.
Since Payload now runs on Next.js, which are often deployed
serverlessly, built-in rate limiting is no longer supported.
Users are encouraged to implement rate limiting at the load balancer,
proxy level, or use services like Cloudflare.
Fixes#10321
The following MDX:
```tsx
<Banner type='info'>
Hello
</Banner>
```
was not able to be parsed by the lexical mdx converter, as the jsx props string extractor did not support the single quotes around the `info` string.
This PR fixes the `UploadData` type that was weakened in a previous PR, causing a breaking change. It also improves the newly added `UploadDataImproved` type by bringing back its support for generated types and using the `UploadCollectionSlug` type helper to restrict collection slugs to upload-enabled collections.
### What?
The admin panel was not respecting where constraints returned from the
readAccess function.
### Why?
`getEntityPolicies` was always using `find` when looping over the
operations, but `readVersions` should be using `findVersions`.
### How?
When the operation is `readVersions` run the `findVersions` operation.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11240
### What?
When you first edit a document and then open the Schedule publish
drawer, you can schedule publish changes but the current changes made to
the form won't be included.
### Why?
The UX does not make it clear that the changes you have in the form are
not actually going to be published.
### How?
Instead of allowing that we just disable the Schedule Publish drawer
toggler so that users are forced to save a draft first.
In addition to the above, this change also passes a defaultType so that
an already published document will default the radio type have
"Unpublish" selected.
Restoring a version has two types of messages, success and error, but no
matter if this action is a success or a failure, the toast message is
never displayed.
The fix is to import the toast from `@payloadcms/ui` instead of `sonner`
directly.
Fixes#11059
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10962
This fix addresses fields with timezones enabled specifically for not
time pickers. If all you want to do is pick a date such as 14th Feb, it
would store the incorrect version and display a date in the future for
people in the Pacific.
This is because Auckland is +12 offset, but +13 with Daylight Savings
Time. In our date picker we try to normalise date pickers with no time
to 12pm and so half the year we ended up pushing dates visually to the
next day for people in the pacific only. Other regions were not affected
by this because their offset would be less than 12.
This PR fixes this by ensuring that our dates are always normalised to
selected timezone's 12pm date to UTC.
There's also additional tests for these two fields from 3 main locations
to cover a wider range of possible timezones.
Just like https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11269, we stop
passing through `req` to db operations in `checkDocumentLockStatus`.
After extensive testing, this seems to get rid of all transaction errors
that occurred when I was testing autosave against a remote mongo DB.
Removes unnecessary callback args from the `onConfirm` callback in the
new `ConfirmationModal` component. Now, the component will close and
reset `isConfirming` state for itself.

There are nearly a dozen independent implementations of the same modal
spread throughout the admin panel and various plugins. These modals are
used to confirm or cancel an action, such as deleting a document, bulk
publishing, etc. Each of these instances is nearly identical, leading to
unnecessary development efforts when creating them, inconsistent UI, and
duplicative stylesheets.
Everything is now standardized behind a new `ConfirmationModal`
component. This modal comes with a standard API that is flexible enough
to replace nearly every instance. This component has also been exported
for reuse.
Here is a basic example of how to use it:
```tsx
'use client'
import { ConfirmationModal, useModal } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React, { Fragment } from 'react'
const modalSlug = 'my-confirmation-modal'
export function MyComponent() {
const { openModal } = useModal()
return (
<Fragment>
<button
onClick={() => {
openModal(modalSlug)
}}
type="button"
>
Do something
</button>
<ConfirmationModal
heading="Are you sure?"
body="Confirm or cancel before proceeding."
modalSlug={modalSlug}
onConfirm={({ closeConfirmationModal, setConfirming }) => {
// do something
setConfirming(false)
closeConfirmationModal()
}}
/>
</Fragment>
)
}
```
## Change 1 - database errors when running autosave
The previous autosave implementation allowed multiple autosave fetch
calls (=> save document draft) to run in parallel. While the
AbortController aborted previous autosave calls if a new one comes in in
order to only process the latest one, this had one flaw:
Using the AbortController to abort the autosave call only aborted the
`fetch` call - it did not however abort the database operation that may
have started as part of this fetch call. If you then started a new
autosave call, this will start yet another database operation on the
backend, resulting in two database operations that would be running at
the same time.
This has caused a lot of transaction errors that were only noticeable
when connected to a slower, remote database. This PR removes the
AbortController and ensures that the previous autosave operation is
properly awaited before starting a new one, while still discarding
outdated autosave requests from the queue **that have not started yet**.
Additionally, it cleans up the AutoSave component to make it more
readable.
## Change 2 - ensure autosave doesn't run unnecessarily
If connected to a slower backend or database, one change in a document
may trigger two autosave operations instead of just one. This is how it
could happen:
1. Type something => formstate changes => autosave is triggered
2. 200ms later: form state request is triggered. Autosave is still
processing
3. 100ms later: form state comes back from server => local form state is
updated => another autosave is triggered
4. First autosave is aborted - this lead to a browser error. This PR
ensures that that error is no longer surfaced to the user
5. Another autosave is started
This PR adds additional checks to ONLY trigger an autosave if the form
DATA (not the entire form state itself) changes. Previously, it ran
every time the object reference of the form state changes. This includes
changes that do not affect the form data, like `field.valid`. =>
Basically every time form state comes back from the server, we were
triggering another, unnecessary autosave
Not passing through `req` ensures that the db operations in
`handleFormStateLocking` run independently, preventing them from being
part of the same transaction. Since locked document operations don't
really require transactional consistency, this change helps avoid
unnecessary transaction errors that have previously occurred here.
In the `findOne` db operation, we return `null` if the document was not
found.
For single-document delete and update operations, if the document you
wanted to update is not found, the following runtime error is thrown
instead: `Cannot read properties of null (reading '_id')`.
This PR correctly handles these cases and returns `null` from the db
method, just like the `findOne` operation.
### What?
Updates the join field documentation.
Mentions:
* Now you can specify an array of `collection` -
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10919
* Querying limitation for join fields, planned
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/9683
* Querying limitation for joined documents when the join field has an
array of `collection` for fields inside arrays and blocks.
### Why?
To have up to date documentation for an array of `collection` and so
users can know about limitations.
### How?
Updates the file on path `docs/fields/join.mdx`.
Similar to the goals of #11026. Adds helper utilities to make
interacting with the blocks field easier within e2e tests. This will
also standardize common functionality across tests and reduce the
overall lines of code for each, making them easier to navigate and
digest.
The following helpers are now available:
- `openBlocksDrawer`: self-explanatory
- `addBlock`: opens the blocks drawer and selects the given block
- `reorderBlocks`: similar to `reorderColumn`, moves blocks using the
drag handle
- `removeAllBlocks`: iterates all rows of a given blocks field and
removes them
This feature allows you to specify `collection` for the join field as
array.
This can be useful for example to describe relationship linking like
this:
```ts
{
slug: 'folders',
fields: [
{
type: 'join',
on: 'folder',
collection: ['files', 'documents', 'folders'],
name: 'children',
},
{
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'folders',
name: 'folder',
},
],
},
{
slug: 'files',
upload: true,
fields: [
{
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'folders',
name: 'folder',
},
],
},
{
slug: 'documents',
fields: [
{
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'folders',
name: 'folder',
},
],
},
```
Documents and files can be placed to folders and folders themselves can
be nested to other folders (root folders just have `folder` as `null`).
Output type of `Folder`:
```ts
export interface Folder {
id: string;
children?: {
docs?:
| (
| {
relationTo?: 'files';
value: string | File;
}
| {
relationTo?: 'documents';
value: string | Document;
}
| {
relationTo?: 'folders';
value: string | Folder;
}
)[]
| null;
hasNextPage?: boolean | null;
} | null;
folder?: (string | null) | Folder;
updatedAt: string;
createdAt: string;
}
```
While you could instead have many join fields (for example
`childrenFolders`, `childrenFiles`) etc - this doesn't allow you to
sort/filter and paginate things across many collections, which isn't
trivial. With SQL we use `UNION ALL` query to achieve that.

### What?
Previously, in postgres query like:
```ts
const result = await payload.find({
collection: 'blocks',
where: { 'blocks.director.name': { equals: 'Test Director' } },
})
```
where `blocks` is a blocks field, `director` is a relationship field and
`name` is a text field inside `directors`, failed with:

### Why?
The generated query before was a bit wrong.
Before:
```sql
select distinct
"blocks"."id",
"blocks"."created_at",
"blocks"."created_at"
from
"blocks"
left join "directors" "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968" on "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."director_id"
left join "blocks_blocks_some" on "blocks"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."_parent_id"
where
"a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."name" = 'Test Director'
order by
"blocks"."created_at" desc
limit
10
```
Notice `left join directors` _before_ join of `blocks_blocks_some`.
`blocks_blocks_some` doesn't exist yet, this PR changes so now we
generate
```sql
select distinct
"blocks"."id",
"blocks"."created_at",
"blocks"."created_at"
from
"blocks"
left join "blocks_blocks_some" on "blocks"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."_parent_id"
left join "directors" "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968" on "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."director_id"
where
"a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."name" = 'Test Director'
order by
"blocks"."created_at" desc
limit
10
```

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10492
This PR fixes a few weird behaviours when `validate: true` is set on drafts:
- when autosave is on and you submit an invalid form it would get stuck in an infinite loop
- PreventLeave would not trigger for submitted but invalid forms leading to potential data loss
Changes:
- Adds e2e tests for the above scenarios
- Adds a new `isValid` flag on the `Form` context provider to signal globally if the form is in a valid or invalid state
- Components like Autosave will manage this internally since it manages its own submission flow as well
- Adds PreventLeave to Autosave too for when form is invalid meaning data hasn't been actually saved so we want to prevent the user accidentally losing data by reloading or closing the page
The following tests have been added

When reusing the SelectInput component from the UI package, if you set
value to `''` it will continue to display the previously selected value
instead of clearing out the field as expected.
The ReactSelect component doesn't behave in this way and instead will
clear out the field.
This fix addresses this difference by resetting `valueToRender` inside
the SelectInput to null.
This PR optimizes permissions calculation for block references, by
calculating them only once per block reference config, instead of once
every single time the blocks are referenced.
This will lead to significant performance improvements in Payload
Configs with a lot of duplicative block references, as permissions are
calculated every time you navigate from page to page.

### What?
This PR adds missing languages to `plugin-seo` that are supported in
Payload but were not ported to the plugin.
### Why?
To properly translate the custom keys added by the plugin in all
languages currently supported.
### How?
By adding the missing languages and exporting them for use.
Addresses #11201
### What?
After clicking "Select all" `toggleAll(true)`, manually deselecting an
item does not update the overall selection status.
The bulk actions remain visible, and `selectAll` incorrectly stays as
`AllAvailable`.
### How?
Updated `setSelection()` logic to adjust `selectAll` when deselecting an
item if it was previously set to `AllAvailable`.
This ensures that the selection state updates correctly without altering
the effect logic.
`selectAll` switches to Some when an item is deselected after selecting
all.
Bulk actions now hide correctly if no items are selected.
Fixes#10836
Currently, the join field outputs to its result `hasNextPage: boolean`
and have the `limit` query parameter but lacks `page` which can be
useful. This PR adds it.
### What?
Adds new option `admin.components.listMenuItems` to allow custom
components to be injected after the existing list controls in the
collection list view.
### Why?
Needed to facilitate import/export plugin.
#### Testing
Use `pnpm dev admin` to see example component and see test added to
`test/admin/e2e/list-view`.
## Update since feature was reverted
The custom list controls and now rendered with no surrounding padding or
border radius.

Previously, we forgot to add `depth: 0` to our `findGlobal` call in `getEntityPolicies`. This PR adds `depth: 0` which will be faster.
It also cleans up the `getEntityPolicies` function in general by adding missing types, JSDocs and improving code readability.
This was part of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11236 and has been extracted into this separate PR, to make it easier to review
### What?
Two new configuration properties added for upload enabled collections.
- *hideFileInputOnCreate* - Set to `true` to prevent the admin UI from
showing file inputs during document creation, useful for programmatic
file generation.
- *hideRemoveFile* - Set to `true` to prevent the admin UI having a way
to remove an existing file while editing.
### Why?
When using file uploads that get created programmatically in
`beforeOperation` hooks or files created using `jobs`, or when
`filesRequiredOnCreate` is false, you may want to use these new flags to
prevent users from interacting with these controls.
### How?
The new properties only impact the admin UI components to dial in the UX
for various use cases.
Screenshot showing that the upload controls are not available on create:

Screenshot showing hideRemoveFile has removed the ability to remove the
existing file:

Prerequisite for https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10795
The `localized` properly was not stripped out of referenced block fields, if any parent was localized. For normal fields, this is done in sanitizeConfig. As the same referenced block config can be used in both a localized and non-localized config, we are not able to strip it out inside sanitizeConfig by modifying the block config.
Instead, this PR had to bring back tedious logic to handle it everywhere the `field.localized` property is accessed. For backwards-compatibility, we need to keep the existing sanitizeConfig logic. In 4.0, we should remove it to benefit from better test coverage of runtime field.localized handling - for now, this is done for our test suite using the `PAYLOAD_DO_NOT_SANITIZE_LOCALIZED_PROPERTY` flag.
This PR ensures, that collections that don't have `auth: true` don't
mount authentication related endpoints like `/me`, the same for uploads.
Additionally, moves upload-related endpoints to `uploads/endpoints/*`.
Adds a dedicated "Custom Components" section to the docs.
As users become familiar with building custom components, not all areas
that support customization are well documented. Not only this, but the
current pattern does not allow for deep elaboration on these concepts
without their pages growing to an unmanageable size. Custom components
in general is a large enough topic to merit a standalone section with
subpages. This change will make navigation much more intuitive, help
keep page size down, and provide room to document every single available
custom component with snippets to show exactly how they are typed, etc.
This is a substantial change to the docs, here is the overview:
- The "Admin > Customizing Components" doc is now located at "Custom
Components > overview"
- The "Admin > Views" doc is now located at "Custom Components > Custom
Views"
- There is a new "Custom Components > Edit View" doc
- There is a new "Custom Components > List View" doc
- The information about root components within the "Admin > Customizing
Components" doc has been moved to a new "Custom Components > Root
Components" doc
- The information about custom providers within the "Admin > Customizing
Components" doc has been moved to a new "Custom Components > Custom
Providers" doc
Similar to the goals of #10743, #10742, and #10741.
Fixes#10872 and initial scaffolding for #10353.
Dependent on #11126.
This change will require the following redirects to be set up:
- `/docs/admin/hooks` → `/docs/admin/react-hooks`
- `/docs/admin/components` → `/docs/custom-components/overview`
- `/docs/admin/views` → `/docs/custom-components/views`
It is currently very difficult to build custom edit and list views or
inject custom components into these views because these views and
components are not explicitly typed. Instances of these components were
not fully type safe as well, i.e. when rendering them via
`RenderServerComponent`, there was little to no type-checking in most
cases.
There is now a 1:1 type match for all views and view components and they
now receive type-checking at render time.
The following types have been newly added and/or improved:
List View:
- `ListViewClientProps`
- `ListViewServerProps`
- `BeforeListClientProps`
- `BeforeListServerProps`
- `BeforeListTableClientProps`
- `BeforeListTableServerProps`
- `AfterListClientProps`
- `AfterListServerProps`
- `AfterListTableClientProps`
- `AfterListTableServerProps`
- `ListViewSlotSharedClientProps`
Document View:
- `DocumentViewClientProps`
- `DocumentViewServerProps`
- `SaveButtonClientProps`
- `SaveButtonServerProps`
- `SaveDraftButtonClientProps`
- `SaveDraftButtonServerProps`
- `PublishButtonClientProps`
- `PublishButtonServerProps`
- `PreviewButtonClientProps`
- `PreviewButtonServerProps`
Root View:
- `AdminViewClientProps`
- `AdminViewServerProps`
General:
- `ViewDescriptionClientProps`
- `ViewDescriptionServerProps`
A few other changes were made in a non-breaking way:
- `Column` is now exported from `payload`
- `ListPreferences` is now exported from `payload`
- `ListViewSlots` is now exported from `payload`
- `ListViewClientProps` is now exported from `payload`
- `AdminViewProps` is now an alias of `AdminViewServerProps` (listed
above)
- `ClientSideEditViewProps` is now an alias of `DocumentViewClientProps`
(listed above)
- `ServerSideEditViewProps` is now an alias of `DocumentViewServerProps`
(listed above)
- `ListComponentClientProps` is now an alias of `ListViewClientProps`
(listed above)
- `ListComponentServerProps` is now an alias of `ListViewServerProps`
(listed above)
- `CustomSaveButton` is now marked as deprecated because this is only
relevant to the config (see correct type above)
- `CustomSaveDraftButton` is now marked as deprecated because this is
only relevant to the config (see correct type above)
- `CustomPublishButton` is now marked as deprecated because this is only
relevant to the config (see correct type above)
- `CustomPreviewButton` is now marked as deprecated because this is only
relevant to the config (see correct type above)
This PR _does not_ apply these changes to _root_ components, i.e.
`afterNavLinks`. Those will come in a future PR.
Related: #10987.
The `Media` component has an optional property `resource` so we can skip
that property. As in payload `required: false` types are generated like
`media?: Media | string | null`, it also makes sense to allow `null` as
a `resource` value.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11200
The fix, added in https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11096
wasn't sufficient enough. It did handle the case when the same query
path / table was joined twice and caused incorrect `totalDocs`, but it
didn't handle the case when `JOIN` returns more than 1 rows, which 2
added new assertions here check.
Now, we use `COUNT(*)` only if we don't have any joined tables. If we
do, instead of using `SELECT (COUNT DISTINCT id)` which as described in
the previous PR is _very slow_ for large tables, we use the following
query:
```sql
SELECT COUNT(1) OVER() as count -- window function, executes for each row only once
FROM users
LEFT JOIN -- ... here additional rows are added
WHERE -- ...
GROUP BY users.id -- this ensures we're counting only users without additional rows from joins.
LIMIT 1 -- Since COUNT(1) OVER() executes and resolves before doing LIMIT, we can safely apply LIMIT 1.
```
Bulk-many components are always using the plural format in their title,
even if only one document has been selected.
This fix checks the selection count and if its greater than 1 it will
show the plural format otherwise it will show the singular format.
Lexical checks commands by reference equality. This means that even if you re-define those commands in your own codebase using the same command `type` string, they will be treated as different commands.
If you wanted to dispatch the block creation command in your own codebase (e.g. from a different lexical feature, or any component within the editor), this will not be possible right now. See https://discord.com/channels/967097582721572934/1339557113898340352/1339557113898340352

### What?
This PR fixes an issue where a deleted relationship entry would lead to
a runtime error if the user clicked on the edit button in ui due to not
having a `doc` available in `handleServerFunction`.
### Why?
To prevent runtime errors during expected usage.
### How?
By hiding the edit button in entries that have been deleted. This is
done for entries where the user does not have read access already.

This PR fixes an issue where padding around the `DocumentHeader`
component disappears at the `mid-break` viewport size.
The issue was caused by .doc-header applying padding-left: 0 and

### What?
This PR fixes an issue where the `join` field table was not respecting
the locale selected in the admin ui localizer.
This also introduces an e2e test to the existing suite to catch this
issue.
### Why?
To properly render `join` field table data according to chosen and

Incorrect default value on exported `tenantsArrayField` field. Should
have been `tenant` but was using `tenants`. This affected the
multi-tenant example which uses a custom tenants array field.

```

### What?
Assuming you have a hook in your collection that is looking for certain
conditions to be met related to the join field. The way you would
prevent it is to throw a `new ValidationError()` with errors containing
the path of the field. Previously, the error message for the field would
not show in the admin UI at all.
### Why?
Users need to be able to see any custom error messages for joins field
in the UI so they can address the issue.
### How?
Adds an error class and display the FieldError in the Join field in the
UI component.
### What?
This PR removes a pair unnecessary calls to `schema.index` against the
timestamp fields. The issue is when a user sets `indexSortableFields` as
this is what will ultimately pass the predicate which then creates
duplicate indexes.
### Why?
These calls are redundant as `index` is [already
passed](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/db-mongodb/src/models/buildSchema.ts#L69)
to the underlying fields base schema options in the process of
formatting and will already be indexed.
These warnings were surfaced after the bump to mongoose to version 8.9.5
as [in 8.9.3 mongoose began throwing these warnings to indicate
duplicative
indexes](https://github.com/Automattic/mongoose/releases/tag/8.9.3).
### How?
By removing these calls and, as a result, silencing the warnings thrown
by mongoose.
If you have multiple blocks that are used in multiple places, this can quickly blow up the size of your Payload Config. This will incur a performance hit, as more data is
1. sent to the client (=> bloated `ClientConfig` and large initial html) and
2. processed on the server (permissions are calculated every single time you navigate to a page - this iterates through all blocks you have defined, even if they're duplicative)
This can be optimized by defining your block **once** in your Payload Config, and just referencing the block slug whenever it's used, instead of passing the entire block config. To do this, the block can be defined in the `blocks` array of the Payload Config. The slug can then be passed to the `blockReferences` array in the Blocks Field - the `blocks` array has to be 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'],
})
})
},
],
},
],
})
```
## v4.0 Plans
In 4.0, we will remove the `blockReferences` property, and allow string block references to be passed directly to the blocks `property`. Essentially, we'd remove the `blocks` property and rename `blockReferences` to `blocks`.
The reason we opted to a new property in this PR is to avoid breaking changes. Allowing strings to be passed to the `blocks` property will prevent plugins that iterate through fields / blocks from compiling.
## PR Changes
- Testing: This PR introduces a plugin that automatically converts blocks to block references. This is done in the fields__blocks test suite, to run our existing test suite using block references.
- Block References support: Most changes are similar. Everywhere we iterate through blocks, we have to now do the following:
1. Check if `field.blockReferences` is provided. If so, only iterate through that.
2. Check if the block is an object (= actual block), or string
3. If it's a string, pull the actual block from the Payload Config or from `payload.blocks`.
The exception is config sanitization and block type generations. This PR optimizes them so that each block is only handled once, instead of every time the block is referenced.
## Benchmarks
60 Block fields, each block field having the same 600 Blocks.

## Future Plans
1. This PR does not yet deduplicate block references during permissions calculation. We'll optimize that in a separate PR, as this one is already large enough
2. The same optimization can be done to deduplicate fields. One common use-case would be link field groups that may be referenced in multiple entities, outside of blocks. We might explore adding a new `fieldReferences` property, that allows you to reference those same `config.blocks`.
### What?

### What?
This PR displays file size in upload cards for all upload mimetypes. The
current behavior hides this metric from the user if the file mimetype
does not start with `image`.
### Why?
Showing end-users and editors a file size is universally useful - not
only for images, but for all types of files that can be uploaded via the
upload field.
### How?
By making the predicate that adds this metric less restrictive. Instead
of checking if the mimetype is image-like, it checks if the file size is
truthy.

Refines the animation curve used in the new progress bar for route
transitions. Uses an exponential acceleration and decay so that the
indicator progresses quickly at the onset, then gradually decelerates at
it approaches completion. Also caps the progress at ~90%.
Introduced in #9275.
On fast networks where page transitions are quick, such as local dev in
most cases, the progress bar should not render. This leads to a constant
flashing of the progress bar at the top of the screen and does not
provide any value.
The fix is to add a delay to the initial rendering of the progress bar,
and only show if the transition takes longer than _n_ milliseconds. This
value can be adjusted as needed, but right now is set to 150ms.
Introduced in #9275.

instead.

Added a quick example to showcase how to add a converter for inlineBlocks.
### Why?
This is not easy to figure out in the current version. As per [Discord discussion](https://discord.com/channels/967097582721572934/1338624577990823997)
### How?
Added a very basic 3 lines example to keep the file simple.
Deprecates all cases where `Link` could be sent as a prop. This was a
relic from the past, where we attempted to make our UI library
router-agnostic. This was a pipe dream and created more problems than it
solved, for example the logout button was missing this prop, causing it
to render an anchor tag and perform a hard navigation (caught in #9275).
Does so in a non-breaking way, where these props are now optional and
simply unused, as opposed to removing them outright.
Due to nature of server-side rendering, navigation within the admin
panel can lead to slow page response times. This can lead to the feeling
of an unresponsive app after clicking a link, for example, where the
page remains in a stale state while the server is processing. This is
especially noticeable on slow networks when navigating to data heavy or
process intensive pages.
To alleviate the bad UX that this causes, the user needs immediate
visual indication that _something_ is taking place. This PR renders a
progress bar in the admin panel which is immediately displayed when a
user clicks a link, and incrementally grows in size until the new route
has loaded in.
Inspired by https://github.com/vercel/react-transition-progress.
Old:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1820dad1-3aea-417f-a61d-52244b12dc8d
New:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/99f4bb82-61d9-4a4c-9bdf-9e379bbafd31
To tie into the progress bar, you'll need to use Payload's new `Link`
component instead of the one provided by Next.js:
```diff
- import { Link } from 'next/link'
+ import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
```
Here's an example:
```tsx
import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const MyComponent = () => {
return (
<Link href="/somewhere">
Go Somewhere
</Link>
)
}
```
In order to trigger route transitions for a direct router event such as
`router.push`, you'll need to 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])
// ...
}
```
In the future [Next.js might provide native support for
this](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/41934#discussioncomment-12077414),
and if it does, this implementation can likely be simplified.
Of course there are other ways of achieving this, such as with
[Suspense](https://react.dev/reference/react/Suspense), but they all
come with a different set of caveats. For example with Suspense, you
must provide a fallback component. This means that the user might be
able to immediately navigate to the new page, which is good, but they'd
be presented with a skeleton UI while the other parts of the page stream
in. Not necessarily an improvement to UX as there would be multiple
loading states with this approach.
There are other problems with using Suspense as well. Our default
template, for example, contains the app header and sidebar which are not
rendered within the root layout. This means that they need to stream in
every single time. On fast networks, this would also lead to a
noticeable "blink" unless there is some mechanism by which we can detect
and defer the fallback from ever rendering in such cases. Might still be
worth exploring in the future though.
I only remove myself from this file.
I'm getting a lot of notifications that don't significantly change those
directories. I'll keep an eye out, but feel free to assign me as a
reviewer wherever you see fit!
### What?
The migration CLI help says `migration:fresh` is available to use - this
doesn't exist, the command should be `migrate:fresh`.
Closes#10965 & #10967
### What?
Implement the
[typescript-strict-plugin](https://github.com/allegro/typescript-strict-plugin)
plugin in the payload (core) package.
### Why?
1. One strategy for incremental migration is to enable strictness rules
in tsconfig, fix some errors, and push them without committing the
changes to tsconfig.json. However, this is not feasible for a package as
large as Payload that has over 1000 typescript errors. Until the work is
done, new contributions would undo the work being done.
2. Even if no migration work is done after this PR, this change already
improves the strictness of the package. 89 of the 311 files within the
package already satisfy strict mode. This PR only adds a comment
`@ts-strict-ignore` to files that had at least one compilation error.
This way, the propagation of errors in those files is stopped.
3. New files created in the package are strict by default (this was the
main improvement in version 2 of `typescript-strict-plugin`).
I recommend starting the migration with this package because it is the
one that almost all the others depend on. Once we finish this package,
we can repeat the same strategy on another one, or use the strategy I
mentioned in point 1 if the package is small.
### Note
If you don't see errors in the IDE when you uncomment `//
@ts-strict-ignore`, try restarting the typescript server or VSCode
### How to contribute to the migration ❤️
1. Remove `// @ts-strict-ignore` comments from 1 or more files
2. Fix the pending errors (they should appear in your IDE's intellisense
or when running `cd packages/payload` + `pnpm build:types`
3. Submit your PR!
Important: You don't need to fix everything at once! Furthermore, I
recommend breaking this down into very small PRs to trace potential
issues later if there are any. So if you have 5 minutes, tackle a small
file—every bit counts! 🤗
### What?
Add a `div` wrapper to `table` tag in `TableFeature`
### Why?
This allows for adding horizontal scrolling to the table. We use table
in our blog, however, on mobile, the content is wider than the screen
width, and causes a horizontal scroll of all the content. I attached a
video to show. You can see it by visiting the page on mobile
https://magichour.ai/blog/10-best-ai-video-generatorshttps://github.com/user-attachments/assets/55778765-697e-426d-ac8a-1b0913adac13
Adding this container div allow me to target the div with a style
```css
.lexical-table-container {
overflow-x: scroll;
}
```
### How?

I tested this change by manually editing the HTML in our blog to include
the `div` with the overflow style, and it fixes the issue.
Also, verified just adding the `div` did not change anything related to
the rendered output.
This PR adds a new `siblingFields` argument to field hooks. This allows
us to dramatically simplify the `lexicalHTML` field, which previously
had to use a complex `findFieldPathAndSiblingFields` function that
deeply traverses the entire `CollectionConfig` just to find the sibling
fields.
This will hopefully allow pnpm to reliably install the correct lexical version, as lexical is now solely part of our `dependencies`. Currently, pnpm completely disregards lexical version bumps until the user deletes both the lockfile and their `node_modules` folder.
The downside of this is that pnpm will no longer throw a warning if payload is installed in a project with a mismatching lexical version. However, noone read that warning anyways, and our runtime dependency checker is more reliable.
One step closer to being able to remove `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` in
`packages/richtext-lexical/tsconfig.json`.
I'm introducing UploadData_P4 which is a more precise version of
UploadData. I'm doing it as a different type because there's a chance
it'll be a breaking change for some users.
UploadData is used in many places, but I'm currently replacing it only
in
`packages/richtext-lexical/src/exports/react/components/RichText/converter/converters/upload.tsx`,
because in the other files it's too rooted to other types like
UploadNode.
Elaborate how one is supposed to change the admin panel's language
because it is not initially clear or trivial to someone new and going
through the docs from the start.

🤖 Automated bump of templates for v3.23.0

Fixes#11082
In addition to fixing the bug described in that issue, I'm fixing the
problem where when outdenting, indent 0 blocks stay the same. The new
logic verifies that all selected blocks can be outdented.
It remains to be done the same with the tab and shift + tab commands.
Fixes#10440. When `filterOptions` are set on a relationship field,
those same filters are not applied to the `Filter` component within the
list view. This is because `filterOptions` is not being thread into the
`RelationshipFilter` component responsible for populating the available
options.
To do this, we first need to be resolve the filter options on the server
as they accept functions. Once resolved, they can be prop-drilled into
the proper component and appended onto the client-side "where" query.
Reliant on #11080.
Fixes#9873. The relationship filter in the "where" builder renders
stale values when switching between fields or adding additional "and"
conditions. This was because the `RelationshipFilter` component was not
responding to changes in the `relationTo` prop and failing to reset
internal state when these events took place.
While it sounds like a simple fix, it was actually quite extensive. The
`RelationshipFilter` component was previously relying on a `useEffect`
that had a callback in its dependencies. This was causing the effect to
run uncontrollably using old references. To avoid this, we use the new
`useEffectEvent` approach which allows the underlying effect to run much
more precisely. Same with the `Condition` component that wraps it. We
now run callbacks directly within event handlers as much as possible,
and rely on `useEffectEvent` _only_ for debounced value changes.
This component was also unnecessarily complex...and still is to some
degree. Previously, it was maintaining two separate refs, one to track
the relationships that have yet to fully load, and another to track the
next pages of each relationship that need to load on the next run. These
have been combined into a single ref that tracks both simultaneously, as
this data is interrelated.
This change also does some much needed housekeeping to the
`WhereBuilder` by improving types, defaulting the operator field, etc.
Related: #11023 and #11032
Unrelated: finds a few more instances where the new `addListFilter`
helper from #11026 could be used. Also removes a few duplicative tests.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11109
Rewrites the description for the `handler` property of the `Endpoint`
type. This function:
* does not have `res` and `next` anymore
* the `handler` property does not accept an array of functions anymore.
Additionally, adds a more meaningful description for the `req` argument.

### What?
This PR adds a table to the [Payload-wide Upload
Options](https://payloadcms.com/docs/upload/overview#payload-wide-upload-options)
section of the docs.
### Why?
To give users more insight into the customization options provided
out-of-the-box with uploads. Previously, these options were not visible
on the docs, forcing users to inspect source code to see how they can
customize their global upload settings. It wasn't clear, for example,
that a `fileSize` limit would not produce a 413 in a response by
default, but would truncate the file contents instead.
### How?
Changes to `docs/upload/overview.mdx`.
This PR extends timezone support to scheduled publish UI and collection,
the timezone will be stored on the `input` JSON instead of the
`waitUntil` date field so that we avoid needing a schema migration for
SQL databases.

If a timezone is selected then the displayed date in the table will be
formatted for that timezone.
Timezones remain optional here as they can be deselected in which case
the date will behave as normal, rendering and formatting to the user's
local timezone.
For the backend logic that can be left untouched since the underlying
date values are stored in UTC the job runners will always handle this
relative time by default.
Todo:
- [x] add e2e to this drawer too to ensure that dates are rendered as
expected
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10810
This was caused by using `COUNT(*)` aggregation instead of
`COUNT(DISTINCT table.id)`. However, we want to use `COUNT(*)` because
`COUNT(DISTINCT table.id)` is slow on large tables. Now we fallback to
`COUNT(DISTINCT table.id)` only when `COUNT(*)` cannot work properly.
Example of a query that leads to incorrect `totalDocs`:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'directors',
limit: 10,
where: {
or: [
{
movies: {
equals: movie2.id,
},
},
{
movies: {
equals: movie1.id,
},
},
{
movies: {
equals: movie1.id,
},
},
],
},
})
```
### What?
Initial values should be set from the server when `acceptValues` is
true.
### Why?
This is needed since we take the values from the server after a
successful form submission.
### How?
Add `initialValue` into `serverPropsToAccept` when `acceptValues` is
true.

Adds a `shouldAutoRun` property to the `jobs` config to be able to have
fine-grained control over if jobs should be run. This is helpful in
cases where you may have many horizontally scaled compute instances, and
only one instance should be responsible for running jobs.
### What?
If you had multiple operator constraints on a single field, the last one
defined would be the only one used.
Example:
```ts
where: {
id: {
in: [doc2.id],
not_in: [], // <-- only respected this operator constraint
},
}
```
and
```ts
where: {
id: {
not_in: [],
in: [doc2.id], // <-- only respected this operator constraint
},
}
```
They would yield different results.
### Why?
The results were not merged into an `$and` query inside parseParams.
### How?
Merges the results within an `$and` constraint.

Supersedes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11011
### What?
Within collections using the `storage-s3` plugins, we eventually start
receiving the following warnings:
`@smithy/node-http-handler:WARN socket usage at capacity=50 and 156
additional requests are enqueued. See
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v3/developer-guide/node-configuring-maxsockets.html
or increase socketAcquisitionWarningTimeout=(millis) in the
NodeHttpHandler config.`
Also referenced in this issue: #6382
The
[solution](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6382#issuecomment-2325468104)
provided by @denolfe in that issue only delayed the reappearance of the
problem somewhat, but did not resolve it.
### Why?
As far as I understand, in the `staticHandler` of the plugin, when
getting items from storage, and they are currently cached, the cached
results are immediately returned without handling the stream. As per
[this](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js-v3/blob/main/supplemental-docs/CLIENTS.md#nodejs-requesthandler)
entry in the aws-sdk docs, if the streaming response is not read, or
manually destroyed, a socket might not properly close.
### How?
Before returning the cached items, manually destroy the streaming
response to make certain the socket is being properly closed.
Additionally, add an error check to also consume/destroy the streaming
response in case an error occurs, to not leave orphaned sockets.
Fixes#6382
Adds support for timezone selection on date fields.
### Summary
New `admin.timezones` config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
// ...
timezones: {
supportedTimezones: ({ defaultTimezones }) => [
...defaultTimezones,
{ label: '(GMT-6) Monterrey, Nuevo Leon', value: 'America/Monterrey' },
],
defaultTimezone: 'America/Monterrey',
},
}
}
```
New `timezone` property on date fields:
```ts
{
type: 'date',
name: 'date',
timezone: true,
}
```
### Configuration
All date fields now accept `timezone: true` to enable this feature,
which will inject a new field into the configuration using the date
field's name to construct the name for the timezone column. So
`publishingDate` will have `publishingDate_tz` as an accompanying
column. This new field is inserted during config sanitisation.
Dates continue to be stored in UTC, this will help maintain dates
without needing a migration and it makes it easier for data to be
manipulated as needed. Mongodb also has a restriction around storing
dates only as UTC.
All timezones are stored by their IANA names so it's compatible with
browser APIs. There is a newly generated type for `SupportedTimezones`
which is reused across fields.
We handle timezone calculations via a new package `@date-fns/tz` which
we will be using in the future for handling timezone aware scheduled
publishing/unpublishing and more.
### UI
Dark mode

Light mode

We now properly allow relative live preview URLs which is handy if
you're deploying on a platform like Vercel and do not know what the
preview domain is going to end up being at build time.
This PR also removes some problematic code in the website template which
hard-codes the protocol to `https://` in production even if you're
running locally.
Fixes#11070
Adds documentation for the `usePayloadAPI` hook to the React Hooks
documentation.
The new section provides details on how the hook works, its parameters,
return values, and example usage.
**Changes:**
- Added `usePayloadAPI` documentation to the React Hooks page.
- Explained its purpose, arguments, and return values.
- Included an example demonstrating how to fetch data and update request
parameters dynamically.
Fixes: #10969
### What
Before, richText docs were showing a feature name spelt as
`BlockQuoteFeature`.
### How?
However, the accurate spelling of the feature is `BlockquoteFeature`.
If an error is thrown during the payload init process, it gets ignored and an unhelpful, meaningless
` ⨯ OverwriteModelError: Cannot overwrite ___ model once compiled.`
error is thrown instead. The actual error that caused this will never be logged. This PR fixes this and ensures the actual error is logged.
## Why did this happen?
If an error is thrown during the init process, it is caught and handled by the `src/utilities/routeError.ts` - this helper properly logs the error using pino.
The problem is that pino did not exist, as payload did not finish initializing - it errored during it. So, it tries to initialize payload again before logging the error... which will fail again. If payload failed initializing the first time, it will fail the second time. => No error is logged.
This PR ensures the error is logged using `console.error()` if the originating error was thrown during the payload init process, instead of attempting to initialize it again and again
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11055
Functions passed to array field, block field or block `labels` were not properly handled in the client config, causing those functions to be sent to the client. This leads to a "Functions cannot be passed directly to Client Component" error
This PR exposes the `ClientConfig` as an argument to the lexical `ClientFeature`. This is a requirement for https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10905, as we need to get the ClientBlocks from the `clientConfig.blocksMap` if they are strings.
## Example
```tsx
export const BlocksFeatureClient = createClientFeature(
({ config, featureClientSchemaMap, props, schemaPath }) => { // <= config is the new argument
// Return ClientFeature
})
```
When filtering the list view, removing the final condition from the
query closes the "where" builder entirely. This forces the user to
re-open the filter controls and begin adding conditions from the start.
This PR fixes 2 eslint config issues that prevented it from running in our test dir
- spec files were ignored by the root eslint config. This should have only ignored spec files within our packages, as they are ignored by the respective package tsconfigs
- defining the payload plugin crashed eslint in our test dir, as it was already defined in the root eslint config it was inheriting
The "select decoratorNodes" test was flaky, as it often selected the relationship block node with a relationship to "payload.jpg", instead of the upload node for "payload.jpg", depending on which node loaded first.
This PR ensures it waits for all blocks to be loaded, and updates the selector to specifically target the upload node
Previously, data created by other tests was also leaking into unrelated tests, causing them to fail. The new reset-db-between-tests logic added by this PR fixes this.
Additionally, this increases playwright timeouts for CI, and adds a specific timeout override for opening a drawer, as it was incredibly slow in CI
### What?
Adds new option `admin.components.listControlsMenu` to allow custom
components to be injected after the existing list controls in the
collection list view.
### Why?
Needed to facilitate import/export plugin.
#### Preview & Testing
Use `pnpm dev admin` to see example component and see test added to
`test/admin/e2e/list-view`.

When filtering the list view using conditions on a relationship field,
clearing the value from the field would leave it in the query despite
being removed from the component.
Adds the ability to filter what locales should be available per request.
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 function that would scope certain locales to tenants:
**`payload.config.ts`**
```ts
// ... rest of payload config
localization: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: ['en', 'es'],
filterAvailableLocales: async ({ req, locales }) => {
if (getTenantFromCookie(req.headers, 'text')) {
try {
const fullTenant = await req.payload.findByID({
id: getTenantFromCookie(req.headers, 'text') as string,
collection: 'tenants',
})
if (fullTenant && fullTenant.supportedLocales?.length) {
return locales.filter((locale) => {
return fullTenant.supportedLocales?.includes(locale.code as 'en' | 'es')
})
}
} catch (_) {
// do nothing
}
}
return locales
},
}
```
The filter above assumes you have a field on your tenants collection like so:
```ts
{
name: 'supportedLocales',
type: 'select',
hasMany: true,
options: [
{
label: 'English',
value: 'en',
},
{
label: 'Spanish',
value: 'es',
},
],
}
```
Previously, data for globals was inconsistent across database adapters.
In Postgres, globals didn't store correct `createdAt`, `updatedAt`
fields and the `updateGlobal` lacked the `globalType` field. This PR
solves that without introducing schema changes.
Adds a new `addListFilter` e2e helper. This will help to standardize
this common functionality across all tests that require filtering list
tables and help reduce the overall lines of code within each test file.
In https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9917 we automatically added `admin.description` as JSDocs to our generated types.
If a function was passed as a description, this could have created unnecessary noise in the generated types, as the output of the description function may differ depending on where and when it's executed.
Example:
```ts
description: () => {
return `Current date: ${new Date().toString()}`
}
```
This PR disabled evaluating description functions for JSDocs generation
When using the filter controls in the list view on a relationship field,
the select options would clear after clicking outside of the component
then never repopulate. This caused the component to remain in an
unusable state, where no options would appear unless the filter is
completely removed and re-added. The reason for this is that the
`react-select` component fires an `onInputChange` event on blur, and the
handler that is subscribed to this event was unknowingly clearing the
options.
This PR also renames the various filter components, i.e.
`RelationshipField` -> `RelationshipFilter`. This improves semantics and
dedupes their names from the actual field components.
This bug was first introduced in this PR: #10553
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10940
This PR does the following:
- adds a `useDocumentForm` hook to access the document Form. Useful if
you are within a sub-Form
- ensure the `data` property passed to field conditions, read access
control, validation and filterOptions is always the top-level document
data. Previously, for fields within lexical blocks/links/upload, this
incorrectly was the lexical block-level data.
- adds a `blockData` property to hooks, field conditions,
read/update/create field access control, validation and filterOptions
for all fields. This allows you to access the data of the nearest parent
block, which is especially useful for lexical sub-fields. Users that
were previously depending on the incorrect behavior of the `data`
property in order to access the data of the lexical block can now switch
to the new `blockData` property
The `useIgnoredEffect` hook is useful in firing an effect only when a _subset_ of dependencies change, despite subscribing to many dependencies. But the previous implementation of `useIgnoredEffect` had a few problems:
- The effect did not receive the updated values of `ignoredDeps` - thus, `useIgnoredEffect` pretty much worked the same way as using `useEffect` and omitting said dependencies from the dependency array. This caused the `ignoredDeps` values to be stale.
- It compared objects by value instead of reference, which is slower and behaves differently than `useEffect` itself.
- Edge cases where the effect does not run even though the dependencies have changed. E.g. if an `ignoredDep` has value `null` and a `dep` changes its value from _something_ to `null`, the effect incorrectly does **not** run, as the current logic detects that said value is part of `ignoredDeps` => no `dep` actually changed.
This PR replaces the `useIgnoredEffect` hook with a new pattern which to combine `useEffect` with a new `useEffectEvent` hook as described here: https://react.dev/learn/separating-events-from-effects#extracting-non-reactive-logic-out-of-effects. While this is not available in React 19 stable, there is a polyfill available that's already used in several big projects (e.g. react-spectrum and bluesky).
When navigating from the list view, with no tenant selected, the
document would load and set the hidden tenant field to the first tenant
option.
This was caused by incorrect logic inside the TenantField useEffect that
sets the value on the field upon load.
### What?
Using the versions drafts feature and scheduling publish jobs, the UI
does not allow you to open the schedule publish drawer when the document
has been published already.
### Why?
Because of this you cannot schedule unpublish, unless as a user you
modify a form field as a workaround before clicking the publish submenu.
### How?
This change extends the Button props to include subMenuDisableOverride
allowing the schedule publish submenu to still be used on even when the
form is not modified.
Before:

With changes:

In https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10319, the `cacheTags`
property was added to the image config. This achieves the goal as
described, however, there are still other places where this issue
occurs, which should be handled in the same way. This PR aims to apply
it to those instances.
### What?
This updates the UX of `TextFields` with `hasMany: true` by:
- Removing the dropdown menu and its indicator
- Removing the ClearIndicator
- Making text items directly editable
### Why?
- The dropdown didn’t enhance usability.
- The ClearIndicator removed all values at once with no way to undo,
risking accidental data loss. Backspace still allows quick and
intentional clearing.
- Previously, text items could only be removed and re-added, but not
edited inline. Allowing inline editing improves the editing experience.
### How?
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/02e8cc26-7faf-4444-baa1-39ce2b4547fa
The `fields-relationship` test suite is disorganized to the point of
being unusable. This makes it very difficult to digest at a high level
and add new tests.
This PR cleans it up in the following ways:
- Moves collection configs to their own standalone files
- Moves the seed function to its own file
- Consolidates collection slugs in their own file
- Uses generated types instead of defining them statically
- Wraps the `filterOptions` e2e tests within a describe block
Related, there are three distinct test suites where we manage
relationships: `relationships`, `fields-relationship`, and `fields >
relationships`. In the future we ought to consolidate at least two of
these. IMO the `fields > relationship` suite should remain in place for
general _component level_ UI tests for the field itself, whereas the
other suite could run the integration tests and test the more complex UI
patterns that exist outside of the field component.

`buildVersionFields` was adding `null` version fields to the version fields array. When RenderVersionFieldsToDiff tried to render those, it threw an error.
This PR ensures no `null` fields are added, as `RenderVersionFieldsToDiff` can't process them. That way, those fields are properly skipped, which is the intent of `modifiedOnly`
Our new Lexical -> JSX converter is great, but right now it can only be
used in environments that support CSS importing / bundling.
It was only that way because of a single import file which can be
removed and inlined, therefore, improving the versatility of the JSX
converter and making it more usable in a wider variety of runtimes.

If you had a published document but then created a new draft it would
delete the search doc, this PR adds an additional find to check if an
existing published doc exists before deleting the search doc.
Also adds a few jsdocs to plugin config
### What
1. List view not working when clearing tenant selection (you would see a
NaN error)
2. Tenant selector would reset to the first option when loading a
document
### Why
1. Using parseFloat on the _ALL_ selection option
2. A was mismatch in ID types was causing the selector to never find a
matching option, thus resetting it to the first option
### How
1. Check if cookie isNumber before parsing
2. Do not cast select option values to string anymore
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9821
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10980
You can currently extend Payload's type generation if you provide
additional JSON schema definitions yourself.
But, Payload has helpful functions like `fieldsToJSONSchema` which would
be nice to easily re-use.
The only issue is that the `fieldsToJSONSchema` requires arguments which
are difficult to access from the context of plugins, etc. They should
really be provided at runtime to the `config.typescript.schema`
functions.
This PR does exactly that. Adds more args to the `schema` extension
point to make utility functions easier to re-use.
The snippet for generating a dynamic, fully qualified live preview url
was wrong. It was indicating there were two arguments passed to that
function, when in fact there is only one.
### What?
When using `throw new APIResponse("Custom error message", 500, null,
true)` the error message is being replaced with the standard "Something
went wrong" message.
### Why?
We are not checking if the 4th argument (`isPublic`) is false before
masquerading the error message.
### How?
Adds a check for `!err.isPublic` before adjusting the outgoing message.
### What?
This PR adds tests for custom list view components to the existing suite
in `admin/e2e/list-view/`. Custom components are already tested in the
document-level counterpart, and should be tested here as well.
### Why?
Previously, there were no tests for these list view components.
Refactors, features, or changes that impact the importMap, default list
view, etc., could affect how these components get rendered. It's safer
to have tests in place to catch this as custom list view components, in
general, are used quite often.
### How?
This PR adds 5 simple tests that check for the rendering of the
following list view components:
- `BeforeList`
- `BeforeListTable`
- `UI Field Cell`
- `AfterList`
- `AfterListTable`
Fixes#10878. The Search Plugin displays a link within the search
results collection that points to the underlying document that is
related to that result. The href used, however, was not accounting for
any `basePath` provided to the `next.config.js`, leading to a 404 if
using a custom base path. The fix is to use the `Link` component from
`next/link` instead of an anchor tag directly. This will automatically
inject the the base path into the href before rendering it.
This PR also brings back the `CopyToClipboard` component. This makes it
easy for the user to copy the href instead of navigating to it.

There were a number of areas within the Search Plugin where typings
could have been improved, namely:
- The `customProps` sent to the `ReindexButton`. This now uses the
`satisfies` keyword to ensure type strictness.
- The `collectionLabels` prop sent to the `ReindexButtonClient`
component. This is now standardized behind a new
`ResolvedCollectionLabels` type to closely reflect `CollectionLabels`.
This was also converted from unnecessarily invoking a function to being
a basic object.
- The `locale` type sent through `SyncDocArgs`. This now uses
`Locale['code']` from Payload.
`JSON.parse(JSON.stringify().replace())` is easy to make mistakes with and since we have TypeScript data objects already for the data we're seeding it's pretty easy to just factor these as functions, making their dependencies explicit.
Continuation of #10632. The `apiBasePath` property in the Search Plugin
config is unnecessary. This plugin reads directly from the Payload
config for this property. Exposing it to the plugin's config was likely
a mistake during sanitization before passing it through to the remaining
files. This property was added to resolve the types, but as result,
exposed it to the config unnecessarily. This PR marks this property with
the deprecated flag to prevent breaking changes.
Previously, the lexical link drawer did not display any fields if the
`create` permission was false, even though the `update` permission was
true.
The issue was a faulty permission check in `RenderFields` that did not
check the top-level permission operation keys for truthiness. It only
checked if the `permissions` variable itself was `true`, or if the
sub-fields had `create` / `update` permissions set to `true`.
This fixes#10631.
Originally the api basepath for the reindex button is resolved during
plugin initialization. Looks like this happens before payload overrides
the config with the `basePath `from the next config.
I've changed it so that it uses the `useConfig` hook, and manually
tested that it works.

## What
Refactored the explanation of complexity limits in the
preventing-abuse.mdx documentation to correct grammar and improve
clarity.
## Why
- Grammar fix: The original sentence omitted the preposition "to" ("way
specify" → "way to specify").
- Readability: The long, compound sentence was difficult to parse at a
glance.
- Concept separation: Merging two ideas (defining limits and explaining
scoring) confused the workflow.
## How
- Added the missing "to" to ensure grammatical correctness.
- Split the sentence into two parts:
1. Introduces the purpose of complexity limits.
2. Explains how complexity scores enforce these limits.
- Preserved technical accuracy while simplifying the flow.

Previously, with enabled versions, nested select `hasMany: true` fields
weren't working with SQL database adapters. This was due to wrongly
passed `parent` to select rows data because we store arrays and blocks
in versions a bit differently, using both, `id` and `_uuid` (which
contains the normal Object ID) columns. And unlike with non versions
`_uuid` column isn't actually applicable here as it's not unique, thus
we need to save blocks/arrays first and then map their ObjectIDs to
generated by the database IDs and use them for select fields `parent`
data
### What?
Add @ts-ignore in seed to allow initial build on vercel
### Why?
The 1-click setup for the vercel-website template doesn't work because
the initial build fails on vercel
### How?
Added some ts-ignore, similarly to the main payload repo
As a result of #9388, the `valid` and `passesCondition` properties no
longer appear in form state. This leads to breaking logic if you were
previously relying on these properties to have explicit values. To fix
this, we simply perform the inverse on these properties before accepting
them into client side form state. In the next major release, we can
accept form state as it is received and instruct users to modify their
logic as needed.
Also comes with a small perf optimization, by keeping the old object
reference of fields if they did not change when server form state comes
back
Similar to #10876. There were a number of things wrong or in need of
improvement with the Draft Preview implementation of the Website
Template, namely:
- The preview secret was missing entirely, with pointless logic was
written to throw an error if it missing in the search params as opposed
to not matching the environment secret. This will ensure that only admin
users, not _any_ user, can enter into preview mode.
- The preview endpoint was unnecessarily querying the database for a
matching document as opposed to letting the underlying page itself 404
as needed, and it was also throwing an inaccurate error message. The
preview route already checks that the path is relative, so there is no
security risk of redirecting to another domain.
- The `/next/exit-preview` route was duplicated twice.
- The logic to format search params in the preview URL was unnecessarily
complex.
* set font-size to unset
* set font-weight to unset
### What?
Change CSS values in global.css files in 3 examples
### Why?
Apparently, the CSS value of `auto` does not actually exist in CSS for
`font-size` and `font-weight`
[mdn](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/font-size#syntax)
.
[Stylelint](https://stylelint.io/user-guide/rules/declaration-property-value-no-unknown/)
errors made me aware of this. That rule's description is not specific to
`font-size` and `font-weight`.
This is how it looked in the terminal:
```
src/app/(frontend)/globals.css
12:18 ✖ Unexpected unknown value "auto" for property "font-weight" declaration-property-value-no-unknown
13:16 ✖ Unexpected unknown value "auto" for property "font-size" declaration-property-value-no-unknown
```
### Fixes:
Change `auto` to `unset` since it uses `initial` styles unless the
heading CSS values have been changed by a parent html tag. I'm guessing
this was reset due to tailwind interrupting this somehow.
### What?
In some cases you may want to opt out of using the default access
control that this plugin provides on the tenants collection.
### Why?
Other collections are able to opt out of this already, but the tenants
collection specifically was not configured with an opt out capability.
### How?
Adds new property to the plugin config: `useTenantsCollectionAccess`.
Setting this to `false` allows users to opt out and write their own
access control functions without the plugin merging in its own
constraints for the tenant collection.

There were a number of things wrong or could have been improved with the
[Draft Preview
Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/draft-preview),
namely:
- The package.json was missing `"type": "modue"` which would throw ESM
related import errors on startup
- The preview secret was missing entirely, with pointless logic was
written to throw an error if it missing in the search params as opposed
to not matching the environment secret
- The `/next/exit-preview` route was duplicated twice
- The preview endpoint was unnecessarily querying the database for a
matching document as opposed to letting the underlying page itself 404
as needed, and it was also throwing an inaccurate error message
Some less critical changes were:
- The page query was missing the `depth` and `limit` parameters which is
best practice to optimize performance
- The logic to format search params in the preview URL was unnecessarily
complex
- Utilities like `generatePreviewPath` and `getGlobals` were
unnecessarily obfuscating simple functions
- The `/preview` and `/exit-preview` routes were unecessarily nested
within a `/next` page segment
- Payload types weren't aliased
Remove repeated `developers` word.
### What?
There was a typo on the plugins overview page, where `developers
developers` was used twice in a row. Mb that was a quote from Steve
Balmer idk.
### Why?
Docs should be pristine.
### How?
Removed the word.
Thoroughly documents the `admin.preview` feature. Previously, this
information was briefly mentioned in two distinct places, within the
collections config and again within the globals config. This led to
discrepancies over time and was inadequate at describing this feature,
such as having a lack of concrete code examples especially as it relates
to _draft preview_. There has also been confusion between this and Live
Preview.
Now, there is a dedicated page at `/admin/preview` which centralizes
this information into a single document. It also specifically documents
how to achieve _draft preview_ and includes code snippets. This way, we
no longer have to rely solely on the [Draft Preview
Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/draft-preview)
for this.
Related: #10798
### What?
When using custom slugs and field names the tenancy field added to the
users would still attempt to use `tenants` and fail.
### Why?
The tenant/tenancy are hardcoded in `tenantsArrayField()`
### How?
Added the same args that are used in `tenantsField()` for the field
names and relation.

The selection is never touched in an `editor.read`, but BEFORE starting
an `editor.update` it is synced with `window.selection`. Firefox for

This addition enhances the `Blank` template by adding a simple front-end
to ensure a better out-of-the-box experience.
When deploying the template to platforms like `Payload Cloud`, `Vercel`,
or similar services, users would previously encounter a `404` or
`not-found` page on the front-end `/` route unless explicitly handled.
With this update, the template now includes a minimal front-end that
renders a basic page at route `/`.
### Notes
- The added front-end is entirely optional.
- If users prefer to use the `Blank` template as a starting point for a
back-end-only solution or plan to integrate with a different front-end
framework, they can simply delete the `(frontend)` folder and proceed as
before.

This [PR](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9438) introduced a
bug with the publish button, an error was being thrown when localization
is false. Updated the logic breaking the publish button to safely check
whether localization exists.
### What?
Adds new feature to change the default behavior of the Publish button.
When localization is enabled, you can now choose whether to publish all
locales (default) or publish the active locale only.

### Why?
Since implementing the ability to publish a specific locale, users have
reported that having this option as the default button would be
preferred in some cases.
### How?
Add `defaultLocalePublishOption` to your localization config and set it
to 'active':
```ts
localization: {
defaultLocalePublishOption: 'active',
// the rest of your localization config
},

### What?
This PR fixes many links in the docs as well as a few formatting and
grammar issues.
### Why?
To properly link users to the correct destination in the docs and
present well-formatted docs.
### How?
Changes to a few files in `docs/`
### What?
When hitting the form-state endpoint, previousValue was undefined.
### Why?
It was not being passed through.
### How?
Sets previousValue as the initial value of the field.

Field validations can be expensive, especially custom validations that
are async or highly complex. This can lead to slow form state response
times when generating form state for many such fields. Ideally, we only
run validations on fields whose values have changed. This is not
possible, however, because field validation functions might reference
_other_ field values with their args, and there is no good way of
detecting exactly which fields should run in this case. The next best
thing here is to only run validations _after the form has been
submitted_, and then every `onChange` event thereafter until a
successful submit has taken place. This is an elegant solution because
we currently don't _render_ field errors until submission anyway.
This change will significantly speed up form state response times, at
least until the form has been submitted. From then on, all field
validations will run regardless, just as they do now. If custom
validations continue to slow down form state response times, there is a
new `event` arg introduced in #10738 that can be used to control whether
heavy operations occur on change or on submit.
Related: #10638
Field paths within hooks are not correct.
For example, an unnamed tab containing a group field and nested text
field should have the path:
- `myGroupField.myTextField`
However, within hooks that path is formatted as:
- `_index-1.myGroupField.myTextField`
The leading index shown above should not exist, as this field is
considered top-level since it is located within an unnamed tab.
This discrepancy is only evident through the APIs themselves, such as
when creating a request with invalid data and reading the validation
errors in the response. Form state contains proper field paths, which is
ultimately why this issue was never caught. This is because within the
admin panel we merge the API response with the current form state,
obscuring the underlying issue. This becomes especially obvious in
#10580, where we no longer initialize validation errors within form
state until the form has been submitted, and instead rely solely on the
API response for the initial error state.
Here's comprehensive example of how field paths _should_ be formatted:
```
{
// ...
fields: [
{
// path: 'topLevelNamedField'
// schemaPath: 'topLevelNamedField'
// indexPath: ''

### What?
When the doc permissions were retrieved from the DB, we were coercing

should never coerce id's like this.

change and the error is no longer present.

### What?
When the draft functionality is enabled, in the version history page,
_Restore this version_ renders an empty submenu popup.
### Why?
Restore this version button has below 2 basic scenarios:
1. restore a previously published version.
In this scenario, this button has a second option _Restore as a draft_
which is in the button submenu area, it works perfectly.
2. restore a draft version
As a draft version, there should not have a second option _Restore as a
draft_, because it is a draft version itself, so this second option and
the submenu is not required in this scenario, but actually it shows an
empty submenu which is not a good idea
### How?
Check if this version is a draft version, if yes, no need to set a
render prop to the button component, so the empty popup won't be
displayed.

Fixes: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10787
The underlying problem is that there are types in the form builder
plugin that are unnecessarily `any` or `unknown`.
Here in the website template this was being circumvented with a function
that was not really needed (buildInitialFormState), and with new unknown
types (Value, Property and Data).
Since create-payload-app fetches from the latest commit instead of the
latest release, it is necessary to first merge
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10789, and once the next
release is done this PR can be merged.

Improves the logging that `routeError` throws.
Logs were sometimes being swallowed if there was a problem with the
incoming request. Now they will surface.
## Description
Allows some fields to be collapsed in the version diff view. The fields
that can be collapsed are the ones which can also be collapsed in the
edit view, or that have visual grouping:
- `collapsible`
- `group`
- `array` (and their rows)
- `blocks` (and their rows)
- `tabs`
It also
- Fixes incorrect indentation of some fields
- Fixes the rendering of localized tabs in the diff view
- Fixes locale labels for the group field
- Adds a field change count to each collapsible diff (could imagine this
being used in other places)
- Brings the indentation gutter back to help visualize multiple nesting

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10787
This is the first part of the fix for
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10787.
The second part is https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10785
The `packages/plugin-form-builder/src/types.ts` file contains many more
types besides MessageField.message that are unnecessarily `unknown` or
`any`.
In this PR I'm only fixing that one because:
1. It's what's needed to fix the issue.
2. I want to avoid a breaking change (they should be improved in v4
though).
I don't think MessageField.message will cause a breaking change for
anyone, since it's based on a rich text field.
### What?
- Removes the tenant cookie when the user logs out
- Prevents double redirect to globals when no tenant is selected
### Why?
There were a couple scenarios where the cookie and the tenant did not
match, ie if you logged into 1 tenant, and then out and then into
another tenant.
If the bun extension is installed, a "Run Test" button is displayed in
int test files. Clicking it will use bun to run those tests, which will
always fail.
This PR disables that test button, as it's useless in our repo

The real button here is "Run". Clicking "Run Test" instead will use bun
and fail. Confusing, right?
Field validations currently run very often, such as within form state on
type. This can lead to serious performance implications within the admin
panel if those validation functions are async, especially if they
perform expensive database queries. One glaring example of this is how
all relationship and upload fields perform a database lookup in order to
evaluate that the given value(s) satisfy the defined filter options. If
the field is polymorphic, this can happen multiple times over, one for
each collection. Similarly, custom validation functions might also
perform expensive tasks, something that Payload has no control over.
The fix here is two-fold. First, we now provide a new `event` arg to all
`validate` functions that allow you to opt-in to performing expensive
operations _only when documents are submitted_, and fallback to
significantly more performant validations as form state is generated.
This new pattern will be the new default for relationship and upload
fields, however, any custom validation functions will need to be
implemented in this way in order to take advantage of it. Here's what
that might look like:
```
[
// ...
{
name: 'text'
type: 'text',
validate: async (value, { event }) => {
if (event === 'onChange') {
// Do something highly performant here
return true
}
// Do something more expensive here
return true
}
}
]
```
The second part of this is to only run validations _after the form as
been submitted_, and then every change event thereafter. This work is
being done in #10580.
This was a tricky one.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10700
May potentially fix 9163
This could have also been causing glitchyness related to things like
lexical upload / relationship / link node population.
## Issue and solution explained
The lexical field afterRead hook is responsible for executing afterRead
hooks (this includes relationship population) for all sub-nodes, e.g.
upload or block nodes.
Any field and population promises that were created in the process of
traversing the lexical editor state were added to the parent
`fieldPromises` and `populationPromises` array.
Now this lexical `afterRead` hook, which is responsible for creating and
adding all field and population promises of its sub-nodes to the parent
`fieldPromises` and `populationPromises` arrays, was itself part of the
**same** `fieldPromises` array.
The execution of this lexical `afterRead` hook itself is happening while
the `fieldPromises` array is being awaited. This means that new field
and population promises were being added to this same array DURING the
process of awaiting all promises of this array.
As a result, any promises dynamically added while awaiting the initial
set of fieldPromises were not included in the initial `Promise.all()`
awaiting process, leading to unhandled promises.
This PR resolves the issue by ensuring that promises are repeatedly
awaited until no new promises remain in the arrays. By continuously
awaiting the `fieldPromises` and `populationPromises` until all
dynamically added promises are fully resolved, this PR ensures that any
promises added during the processing of a parent promise are also
properly awaited. This guarantees that no promises are skipped,
preserving the intended behavior of the afterRead hook

### What?
This PR adds a few missing query params to the list of REST query params
available on the rest-api overview page of the docs.
### Why?
To better inform users of more utilities available to them right in the
overview page.
### How?
Changes to `rest-api/overview.mdx`
Similar to #10742. Collection and global-level admin options are
currently documented within the "admin > collections" and "admin >
globals" pages, respectively. This makes them hard to find because
users, myself included, intuitively navigate to the collection and
global overview docs to locate this information before realizing it
lives elsewhere. Now, they are rendered within "configuration >
collections" and "configuration > globals" as expected and the old pages
have been removed altogether.
Continuation of #10741. Field-level admin options, including the
conditional logic and custom field components, are currently documented
within the "admin > customizing views" page. This makes them hard to
find because users, myself included, intuitively navigate to the fields
overview doc first to locate this information. Now, they are rendered
within "fields > overview" as expected. This should help keep the user
from jumping around from doc to doc and getting lost.
Although the "customizing fields" doc provides a big picture overview of
how to create custom field components, it is not explicit enough for
developers to know exactly where to start. For example, it can be
challenging to import the correct types when building these components,
and the natural place to go looking for this information is on the
fields docs themselves. Now, each field doc has its own dedicated
"custom components" section which provides concrete examples for fields
and field labels in both server and client component format, with more
examples to come over time such as using inputs directly, etc. In the
same vein, the "customizing fields" doc itself should probably be moved
to the fields overview section so it remains as intuitive as possible
when searching for this information.
- Blocks can now be selected (only inline blocks were possible before).
- Any DecoratorNode that users create will have the necessary logic out
of the box so that they are selected with a click and deleted with
backspace/delete.
- By having the code for selecting and deleting centralized, a lot of
repetitive code was eliminated
- More performant code due to the use of event delegation. There is only
one listener, previously there was one for each decoratorNode.
- Heuristics to exclude scenarios where you don't want to select the
node: if it is inside the DecoratorNode, but is also inside a button,
input, textarea, contentEditable, .react-select, .code-editor or
.no-select-decorator. That last one was added as a means of opt-out.
- Fix#10634

### What
This PR adds a filtering mechanism to exclude certain reserved fields
from being displayed in the `Edit Many` drawer for bulk uploads. This
ensures that only relevant fields are available for bulk editing.
### Why
Fields like `filename`, `mimeType`, and `filesize` are not intended to
be edited in bulk. Filtering these fields streamlines the interface and
focuses on fields that are meaningful for bulk operations.
### How
- Introduced a `filterOutUploadFields` utility to exclude reserved
fields from the field selection in bulk uploads.
- Applied this filter to the `Edit Many` drawer, ensuring a more
relevant and user-friendly experience.
- Reserved fields include properties like `file`, `mimeType`, `url`,
`width`, `height`, and others that are not applicable for bulk editing.
### What?
This PR introduces the ability to bulk edit multiple uploads
simultaneously within the `Edit all` option for bulk uploads. Users can
now select fields to update across all selected uploads in a single
operation.
### Why?
Managing multiple uploads individually can be time-consuming and
inefficient, especially when updating common fields. This feature
streamlines the process, improving user experience and productivity when
handling bulk uploads.
### How?
* Added an `Edit Many` drawer component specific to bulk uploads that
allows users to select fields for bulk editing.
* Enhanced the FormsManager and related logic to ensure updates are
applied consistently across all selected uploads.

- Fixes collection and tab descriptions not having a bottom padding:
- Deprecates `description` on tabs config in favour of
`admin.description` but supports both
- Adds test to make sure `admin.description` renders with static string
and function too for tabs
Fixes an issue where pasting text over a selection will automatically
add it as a link instead of replacing the text. This is caused by poor
regex matching in the case of relative URLs.
Added tests and strengthened both absolute and relative URL matchers
### What?
When switching tenants from within a document and then navigating back
out to the list view, the tenant would not be set correctly.
### Why?
This was because we handle the tenant selector selection differently
when viewing a document.
### How?
Now when you navigate out, the page will refresh the cookie.
Also adds test suite config that shows how the dom can be used to
manipulate styles per tenant.
### What?
This PR adds information and examples on the `useSelection` and
`useStepNav` hooks.
### Why?
To provide more information on the React hooks available to end-users.
### How?
Changes to `admin/hooks.mdx`
Running `pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant@beta` will install
`v.0.0.1` which is outdated:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant?activeTab=versions
I suspect the intention was to remove `@beta` from the plugin install
instructions with yesterday's Payload `v3.18.0` release which also
bumped `plugin-multi-tenant` to `v3.18.0`, but this might have been
missed.

### What?
Add AbortController to event listeners in useClickableCard.
### Why?
Following Theo's [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sdXSczmvNc)
about the [blog
post](https://kettanaito.com/blog/dont-sleep-on-abort-controller) about
AbortController I came across a bit of code in examples that looked a
bit ugly and thought the AbortController could simplify it a bit
(especially the checks for the DOM node in the removal part).
### How?
Just re-writing the code in a different way. Though, I admit I'm not
wholly sure where the Cards are being used and for what purpose so I
haven't checked that there is no difference to the behaviour of the
code.
Fixes #
Not so much a fix but a different way to write the removal of event
listeners.
-->
### What?
Fixes issue where the provider would throw an error and prevent the
login screen from loading if there was no user.
### Why?
Missing try/catch around tenant find for the provider. (Missed because
test suites have autoLogin: true)
### How?
Adds try/catch around find query.
### What?
Currently it is not possible to override the upload component.
### Why?
The ability to override the upload component is missing from
`renderDocumentSlots`.
### How?
Adding a check to include the custom upload component if it is
available.
This issue is holding me back from releasing a payload plugin.
Fixes#9591
Previously, we were unnecessarily passing the `ClientCollectionConfig`
down from the Table to the Client, even though the client cell
components could simply access it via the `useConfig` hook. This
resulted in redundant data being sent to the client for every single
table cell. Additionally, we were performing a deep copy of the
`ClientCollectionConfig`, which wasted both memory and CPU resources on
the server.

Custom block row labels defined on `admin.components.Label` were not
rendering despite existing in the config. Instead, if a custom label
component was defined on the _top-level_ blocks field itself, it was
incorrectly replacing each blocks label _in addition_ to the field's
label. Now, custom labels defined at the field-level now only replace
the field's label as expected, and custom labels defined at the
block-level are now supported as the types suggest.
Previously, the beforeValidate hook was deepCopying input data. This
indirectly ensured that the passed input data was not mutated.
E.g., if you run the `payload.create` local API, you do not want that to
mutate the `data` object that is passed as an argument. This will create
issues if you attempt to use it multiple times.
This PR moves the deepCopy logic from the beforeValidate hook to the
start of the local API operation. This ensures that
- Input data is intentionally copied at the beginning which makes more
sense. Comment was added to explain why
- GraphQL and Rest operations are now faster, as we don't need to ensure
that the input data is not mutated for those => deepCopy only runs for
local API
Following https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10551, I found and
fixed a handful more bugs:
- When writing to the input, the results that were already there were
not cleaned, causing incorrect results to appear.
- the scroll was causing an infinite loop that showed repeated elements
- optimization: only the required field is selected (not required)
- refs are set to the initial value to avoid a state where nothing can
be searched
Having the `scripts` dir re-use all packages from the top-level was
getting quite unwieldy. Created new `tools` directory that is part of
the workspace. Packages are exported with the `@tools` package
namespace.
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9962 could be considered a
breaking change - this PR restores compatibility by allowing unknown
collection slugs, while still providing type suggestions.
The custom components example no longer ran seed on init. This is done
through a preconfigured migration script that automatically runs on
startup. The `@payloadcms/graphql` package was also incorrectly
installed as a dev dependency and the lockfile was significantly out of
date. The `react` and `react-dom` packages were also pinned to v19.0.0,
with their corresponding types packages to v19.0.1. These now all match
as expected and are identified using the caret operator to ensure the
latest versions are installed.
Bumps the following dependencies:
- next
- typescript
- http-status
- nodemailer
- Payload & next versions in all templates
- Monorepo only: playwright and dotenv
Removes unused dependencies:
- ts-jest
- jest-environment-jsdom
- resend (we don't use their sdk, we only use their rest API)
Previously images would not be revalidated if they were cropped or
changed in another ways.
Now if the image is updated, they will also be updated on the frontend
whenever a post is revalidated.
There was a rogue `{/* IMAGE OF LIVE PREVIEW HERE */}` comment being
rendered in the live preview docs. Comments in this format used to be
hidden, but since moving to a new rendering pattern they now appear.
### What?
Previously, field error messages displayed in toast notifications used
the field path to reference fields that failed validation. This
path-based approach was necessary to distinguish between fields that
might share the same name when nested inside arrays, groups, rows, or
collapsible fields.
However, the human readability of these paths was lacking, especially
for unnamed fields like rows and collapsible fields. For example:
- A text field inside a row could display as: `_index-0.text`
- A text field nested within multiple arrays could display as:
`items.0.subArray.0.text`
These outputs are technically correct but not user-friendly.
### Why?
While the previous format was helpful for pinpointing the specific field
that caused the validation error, it could be more user-friendly and
clearer to read. The goal is to maintain the same level of accuracy
while improving the readability for both developers and content editors.
### How?
To improve readability, the following changes were made:
1. Use Field Labels Instead of Field Paths:
- The ValidationError component now uses the label prop from the field
config (if available) instead of the field’s name.
- If a label is provided, it will be used in the error message.
- If no label exists, it will fall back to the field’s name.
2. Remove _index from Paths for Unnamed Fields (In the validationError
component only):
- For unnamed fields like rows and collapsibles, the _index prefix is
now stripped from the output to make it cleaner.
- Instead of `_index-0.text`, it now outputs just `Text`.
3. Reformat the Error Path for Readability:
- The error message format has been improved to be more human-readable,
showing the field hierarchy in a structured way with array indices
converted to 1-based numbers.
#### Example transformation:
##### Before:
The following fields are invalid: `items.0.subArray.0.text`
##### After:
The following fields are invalid: `Items 1 > SubArray 1 > Text`
### What?
The `pasteURL` feature for Upload fields has been updated to support
both **client-side** and **server-side** URL fetching. Previously, users
could only paste URLs from the same domain as their Payload instance
(internal) or public domains, which led to **CORS** errors when trying
to fetch files from external URLs.
Now, users can choose between **client-side fetching** (default) and
**server-side fetching** using the new `pasteURL` option in the Upload
collection config.
### How?
- By default, Payload will attempt to fetch the file client-side
directly in the browser.
- To enable server-side fetching, you can configure the new `pasteURL`
option with an `allowList` of trusted domains.
- The new `/api/:collectionSlug/paste-url` endpoint is used to fetch
files server-side and stream them back to the browser.
#### Example
```
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Media: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'media',
upload: {
// pasteURL: false, // Can now disable the pasteURL option entirely by passing "false".
pasteURL: {
allowList: [
{
hostname: 'payloadcms.com', // required
pathname: '',
port: '',
protocol: 'https', // defaults to https - options: "https" | "http"
search: ''
},
{
hostname: 'example.com',
pathname: '/images/*',
},
],
},
},
}
```
### Why
This update provides more flexibility for users to paste URLs into
Upload fields without running into **CORS errors** and allows Payload to
securely fetch files from trusted domains.
This adds support for calculating and displaying file sizes for JPEG XL
images.
Image resizing is not supported by sharp out-of-the-box yet:
https://github.com/lovell/sharp/issues/2731
### What?
Extends visibility into what view is being shown so custom components
have context as to where they are being rendered.
**This PR does not add React Context.**
### Why?
This was needed for the multi-tenant plugin where the selector is in the
navigation sidebar and has no way to know if it is being shown inside of
a document or the list view.
I assume other users may also want their server components to be aware
of where a component is rendering before hitting the client. An example
would be wanting to redirect on the server instead of on the client,
this is how multi-tenant redirects users from "global" enabled
collections to the document view.
### How?
Adds 2 new variables that are determined by the view being routed to.
`viewType` - which view is being rendered, ie `list`, `document`,
`version`, `account`, `verify`, `reset`
```ts
type ViewTypes =
| 'account'
| 'dashboard'
| 'document'
| 'list'
| 'reset'
| 'verify'
| 'version'
```
`documentSubViewType` - which tells you what sub view you are on, ie
`api`, `livePreview`, `default`, `versions`
```ts
type DocumentSubViewTypes =
| 'api'
| 'default'
| 'livePreview'
| 'version'
| 'versions'
```
- reduces unnecessary shallow copying within operations by removing
unnecessary spreads or .map()'s
- removes unnecessary `deleteMany` call in `deleteUserPreferences` for
auth-enabled collections
- replaces all instances of `validOperators.includes` with
`validOperatorMap[]`. O(n) => O(1)
- optimizes the `sanitizeInternalFields` function. Previously, it was
doing a **lot** of shallow copying
A lot of this deepCopying was just not necessary. This removes the
deepCopying from all field hook operations where I think it's 100% safe.
It does not remove all deepCopying, especially in areas where the input
data was deep copied, and that data pre-modification is then used after
the field hooks have run.
In these cases, further execution of the hook might be intentionally
expecting the unmodified version of that input data
Data for the EditMany view was fetched even though the EditMany Drawer
was not open. This, in combination with the router.replace call to add
the default limit query param, caused the root layout to re-render
### What?
General improvements:
- Disable duplication on tenant collections marked with `isGlobal`
- Simplify cookie setting logic and option loading for the selector
### What?
Updating wording for a sentence.
### Why?
I believe it was missing a word as it read a bit off without it and
causes a reread.
### How?
Doesn't feel like it reads right and causes a reread.

### Multi Tenant Plugin
This PR adds a `@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant` package. The goal is to
consolidate a source of truth for multi-tenancy. Currently we are
maintaining different implementations for clients, users in discord and
our examples repo. When updates or new paradigms arise we need to
communicate this with everyone and update code examples which is hard to
maintain.
### What does it do?
- adds a tenant selector to the sidebar, above the nav links
- adds a hidden tenant field to every collection that you specify
- adds an array field to your users collection, allowing you to assign
users to tenants
- by default combines the access control (to enabled collections) that
you define, with access control based on the tenants assigned to user on
the request
- by default adds a baseListFilter that filters the documents shown in
the list view with the selected tenant in the admin panel
### What does it not do?
- it does not implement multi-tenancy for your frontend. You will need
to query data for specific tenants to build your website/application
- it does not add a tenants collection, you **NEED** to add a tenants
collection, where you can define what types of fields you would like on
it
### The plugin config
Most of the options listed below are _optional_, but it is easier to
just lay out all of the configuration options.
**TS Type**
```ts
type MultiTenantPluginConfig<ConfigTypes = unknown> = {

}
/**

* If `includeDefaultField` is `false`, you must include the field on your users collection manually
* This is useful if you want to customize the field or place the field in a specific location
*/
tenantsArrayField?:
| {
/**

tenantFieldAccess?: RelationshipField['access']
}

) => boolean
}
```
**Example usage**
```ts
import type { Config } from './payload-types'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
plugins: [
multiTenantPlugin<Config>({
collections: {
pages: {},
},
userHasAccessToAllTenants: (user) => isSuperAdmin(user),
}),
],
})
```
### How to configure Collections as Globals for multi-tenant
When using multi-tenant, globals need to actually be configured as
collections so the content can be specific per tenant.
To do that, you can mark a collection with `isGlobal` and it will behave
like a global and users will not see the list view.
```ts
multiTenantPlugin({
collections: {
navigation: {
isGlobal: true,
},
},
})
```

### What?
When a document gets deleted we are not cleaning up jobs that would fail
if the document doesn't exist. This change makes an extra call to the DB
to delete any incomplete jobs for the document.
### Why?
The jobs queue will error and retry needlessly unless these are purged.
### How?
Adds a call to delete jobs from the delete operation.
### What?
While working on a custom database adapter (I know I am crazy for this)
I noticed that UpsertArgs is not exported when doing:
```
import {
type UpsertArgs
} from 'payload'
```
it results in:
```
Error: src/index.ts(21,8): error TS2614: Module '"payload"' has no exported member 'UpsertArgs'. Did you mean to use 'import UpsertArgs from "payload"' instead?
```
### Why?
Because index.ts in packages/payload/src/index.ts includes Upsert but
not UpsertArgs in export.
### How?
Add the export from UpsertArgs back.
Previously, every error from MongoDB was logged as "Value must be
unique", as well the response code should not be `BAD_REQUEST` but
`INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR`. `throw error` preserves the original error so
it can be traced.
This PR makes the "test" folder strict in typescript.
`pnpm build:test` before: Found 3275 errors in 174 files.
`pnpm build:test` after: Found 4912 errors in 268 files.
At some point we should bring that number to 0 and make it a requirement
in the CI. Currently `pnpm build:test` is not run anywhere in the CI.
Additionally, I took the opportunity to combine the duplicate
configurations from `tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.typecheck.json` using
"extend".
declaration, declarationMap and sourceMap have been removed as they have
no reason to exist in noEmit.
The settings I left in `tsconfig.typecheck.json` are ones that I'm not
sure why they are there. Perhaps the file could be removed or at least
reduced further.
This PR modifies `tsconfig.base.json` by setting the following
strictness properties to true: `strict`, `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` and
`noImplicitOverride`.
In packages where compilation errors were observed, these settings were
opted out, and TODO comments were added to make it easier to track the
roadmap for converting everything to strict mode.
The following packages now have increased strictness, which prevents new
errors from being accidentally introduced:
- storage-vercel-blob
- storage-s3*
- storage-gcs
- plugin-sentry
- payload-cloud*
- email-resend*
- email-nodemailer*
*These packages already had `strict: true`, but now have
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess` and `noImplicitOverride`.
Note that this only affects the `/packages` folder, but not
`/templates`, `/test` or `/examples` which have a different `tsconfig`.
The `access.read` function executed within form state was missing the
`id` arg, and was also incorrectly setting `data` as `doc`. When
building form state, there is no concept of a "doc" because it is
possible to build form state using only a subset of fields. There is
"data", however, which represents the schema path at the entry point of
the function. Similarly, when building form state on within an
`onChange` function, for example, we do not send the original doc
through the request, which is what "doc" would represent. Instead, we
send either `data` or `formState`, both of which could represent a
_modified_ doc. This particular invocation of read access does not
effect the visibility of fields themselves, but rather their return
values from the form state endpoint. Field visibility is determined at
the request level.
This significantly optimizes the form state, reducing its size by up to
more than 3x and improving overall response times. This change also has
rolling effects on initial page size as well, where the initial state
for the entire form is sent through the request. To achieve this, we do
the following:
- Remove `$undefined` strings that are potentially attached to
properties like `value`, `initialValue`, `fieldSchema`, etc.
- Remove unnecessary properties like empty `errorPaths` arrays and empty
`customComponents` objects, which only need to exist if used
- Remove unnecessary properties like `valid`, `passesCondition`, etc.
which only need to be returned if explicitly `false`
- Remove unused properties like `isSidebar`, which simply don't need to
exist at all, as they can be easily calculated during render
## Results
The following results were gathered by booting up each test suite listed
below using the existing seed data, navigating to a document in the
relevant collection, then typing a single letter into the noted field in
order to invoke new form-state. The result is then saved to the file
system for comparison.
| Test Suite | Collection | Field | Before | After | Percentage Change |
|------|------|---------|--------|--------|--------|
| `field-perf` | `blocks-collection` | `layout.0.field1` | 227kB | 110
kB | ~52% smaller |
| `fields` | `array-fields` | `items.0.text` | 14 kB | 4 kB | ~72%
smaller |
| `fields` | `block-fields` | `blocks.0.richText` | 25 kB | 14 kB | ~44%
smaller |
Previously, the url field of a link was stored and outputted despite the
link being an internal link. This PR ensures that either the link url,
or the link doc is stored and outputted - never both.
If you add text to the editor, then delete it using ctrl+a + delete, one
empty paragraph that cannot be removed remains in the editor state.
In order to account for this, we have a `hasText()` function - this,
however, was not used in our JSX and HTML converters. This caused the
converters to incorrectly output a linebreak if said empty editor state
was passed in.
Original issue: #10534
The original issue was partially fixed by #10535, but it missed a case
that overrides a post method with get.
This PR passes the `basePath` to the overridden call.
Better error message when no argument is passed to `pnpm payload`.
Before:
```
Unknown script: "".
```
After:
```
Please provide a command to run
Available commands:
- command-1
- command-2
- etc.
```
After working on this I found a more accurate way to reproduce the bug:
- in the issue repro, type a letter in the select menu.
- delete the letter and wait for the debounce (300ms)
- type another letter.
- in devtools, you should see that the query increases the pagination by
+1. With this change, the pagination is reset when the input changes.
Fixes#10496
I'd like to do integration testing. But since there is no isolated `/ui`
test yet, this requires some planning. I have it pending.
### What?
Allows a user to delete a scheduled publish event after it has been
added:

### Why?
Previously a user had no control over making changes once scheduled.
### How?
Extends the `scheduledPublishHandler` server action to accept a
`deleteID` for the event that should be removed and exposes this to the
user via the admin UI in a new column in the Upcoming Events table.
Refined the grammar and structure of the usage note for
`vercelPostgresAdapter`. Replaced the ambiguous phrase "If when using"
with "If you are using" for better readability and clarity.
Continuation of #10540. Passes server props to custom label components
rendered within table columns, such as the list view. This way custom
server components can have access to `payload`, `i18n`, etc. as
expected.

Since postgres uses number IDs by default, when we were storing the

This fixes that problem by casting the ID to always a string making it
safe for querying inside the JSON field
In PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9507, which aims to
enable only used formats to be enabled in lexical, the
`TEXT_TYPE_TO_FORMAT` constant in the lexical library was altered. This
means it becomes impossible to create a feature relying on the
`highlight` format. I am of the opinion that this should not be the
case; and have used this for a lexical feature in one of my projects.
The type of `enabledFormats` of the `createClientFeature` function
should also be updated to reflect the availability of the format.
This PR aims to:
- Remove the alteration to the library constant
- Update type of `enabledFormats`
### What?
The list view was throwing a hydration error for date fields.
### Why?
The issue really stems from the fact that cells are client rendered. We
dynamically load the dateFNS Locale object at runtime to keep the bundle
size small — which makes sense. But on the first render that means we do
not have the Locale object from the known locale so the server/client
determines what to render it as. This causes a mismatch when hydrating.
In the future I think cells could be server rendered and that would
solve the need for this fix which adds "Loading..." while the dateFNS
Locale is loaded.
I think server rendering the cells would allow us to import the dateFNS
Locale inline (blocking) and then pass the rendered string down to the
list view. This should work because we **know** the locale on the
server.
### How?
In this PR, it adds a "Loading..." fallback for the date cell if the
dateFNS Locale has not loaded yet.
Fixes#10044
Fixes#10529. The `req.locale` property within collection and global
access control functions does not reflect the current locale. This was
because we were attaching the locale to the req only _after_ running
`payload.auth`, which attempts to get access control without a
fully-formed req. The fix is to first authenticate the user using the
`executeAuthStrategies` operation directly, then determine the request
locale with that user, and finally get access results with the proper
locale.
This PR adds `cacheTags: boolean` (default `true`) to allow users to
disable the appended document updatedAt value in the case of hosting
with third party CDNs which may not allow additional search params and
throw an error.
It also fixes how we append this value to consider the case where the
URL already contains parameters and appends it with `&` instead.
In the future `cacheTags` can be made an object to allow granularity for
disabling `eTag` headers used for caching as well.
The cache tag control should help with these two issues:
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9880
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9993
The appending of the value correctly addresses this:
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10139
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10436
Fixes an issue where drafts' updatedAt timestamp is not being updated.
We weren't updating the `versionData` to have the right timestamp in the
saveVersion operation when drafts were being updated.
Added e2e tests to make sure 'Last Modified' is always different in both
autosave and non-autosave drafts.
This should fix it https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10387
I don't know why we had 2 different copies of normalizeMarkdown.
Also, the most up-to-date one still had a bug where lines were
considered as if they were inside codeblocks when they weren't.
How I tested that it works:
1. I copied the `normalizeMarkdown` implementation from this PR into the
website repo, and made sure it is called before the conversion to
editorState.
2. In the admin panel, sync docs.
3. In the admin panel, refresh mdx to lexical (new button, below sync
docs).
4. Look for the examples from bug #10387 and verify that they have been
resolved.
An extra pair of eyes would be nice to make sure I'm not getting
confused with the imports.
### What?
Consolidates logic in update and updateByID. These two operations used a
lot of the same core functionality. This is a QOL improvement for future
features/fixes on each operation. You will not need to make changes to
both operations now.
### Why?
Recently we released a feature for `publishSpecificLocale` and that was
only implemented on the updateByID operation. I think future
enhancements and fixes may suffer the same treatment.
### How?
Moves shared logic into a new file with a function called
`updateDocument`.
### What?
This PR fixes a minor issue in `richtext-lexical` where editor
placeholders were not localized.
### Why?
To allow users to localize placeholders accordingly with their language
preferences in config.
### How?
By evaluating the placeholder in the editor RSC, if any is provided. The
`ContentEditable` component falls back to a default in the event that no
placeholder was provided as this was the existing behavior.
Fixes#10518
The `req` object returned from `initReq` does not include the `user`
property, and instead returned `user` and `i18n` _alongside_ the req
(and in the case of `i18n`, duplicately, as it was _also_ on the req).
Now, these properties exist directly on the req itself as expected. The
`initPage` function was also unnecessary instantiating a new local req
object just to override the `headers`, `url`, and `query` properties.
Instead of doing this, we now support overriding properties upon
instantiating a new req, bypassing the need to create an entirely new
object.

This behavior caused the fixed toolbar of the lexical editor within the
drawer to trigger overlap behavior of the fixed toolbar belonging to the
lexical editor behind the drawer.
Editors within drawers should be treated as separate, instead of being
able to form parent-child relationships between editors behind or in
nested drawers
Previously, this config:
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const tabSlug = 'tabs'
export const Tab: CollectionConfig = {
slug: tabSlug,
fields: [

tabs: [
{
name: 'tabLocalized',
localized: true,
fields: [
{

type: 'array',
fields: [
{
name: 'title',

},
],
}
```
This call
```ts
const result = await payload.create({
collection: tabSlug,
locale: englishLocale,
data: {
tabLocalized: {},
},
})
```
Led to the following crash with the MongoDB adapter

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8d1d37de-a685-4a30-bd37-58af164108a2"

This is due to how Mongoose, apparently just ignores the `minimize:
false` configuration
a83a430a3a/packages/db-mongodb/src/models/buildSchema.ts (L571)
and we, instead of `tabLocalized: { en: { } }` receive just
`tabLocalized: {}`.
This isn't an issue with group fields because we have fallback for them

This PR adds the same for tabs.

Editing fields during a locale change on slow networks can lead to
changes being reset when the new form state is returned. This is because
the fields receive new values from context when the new locale loads in,
which may have occurred _after_ changes were made to the fields. The fix
is to subscribe to a new `localeIsLoading` context which is set
immediately after changing locales, and then reset once the new locale
loads in. This also removes the misleading `@deprecated` flag from the
`useLocale` hook itself.
**Description:**
- [x] Replaces the [SKIPPED] entry with the correct translation for
"Blockquote".
- [x] I have read and understand the CONTRIBUTING.md document in this
repository.
**Type of Change:**
- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue).
**Fixes:**
1. fix the translation issue by replacing the [SKIPPED] entry with the
correct Thai translation for "Blockquote". Which I choose
"ข้อความอ้างอิง" However one might prefer other form of translation like
"คำอ้างอิง" or "กล่องข้อความอ้างอิง" which represent the 'block' with in
the 'Blockquote'
2. corrects the Thai translation for "Horizontal Rule." The translation
has been changed from "กฎแนวนอน," which was a mistranslation, to
"เส้นขอบแนวนอน" to better reflect the meaning of "Horizontal Rule" as a
visual divider or border.

removed spacing from the second tip box, to keep in consistent with tips

Previously, updates of the node fields from outside the form using
setFields did not trigger re-fetching the initial state, and thus
providing updated values to the form. This is to avoid unnecessary
re-renders of the form and unnecessary requests when setFields is
triggered from within the form.
This PR resets the initial state, thus triggering a re-render and
re-fetch of the initial state, if node.setFields is called from outside
the form. This preserves the performance optimization
The collection access endpoint, apparently, can be used without an ID as
well and the correct status code in `notFoundResponse` was missing.

This PR auto-runs jobs only when an admin route is visited. This
solution is only temporary, as it will not work for deployments without
the admin panel that should run jobs
This PR improves how we handle REST API.
Problems before:
* `packages/next/src/routes/rest/*` had a huge amount of code that
didn't depend on next.js at all.
* `packages/next/src/routes/rest/index.ts` itself was not only huge but
also really hard to follow. Every method (`GET`, `POST` etc. was almost
full copy of another).
* `packages/next/src/utilities` had some utilities like
`headersWithCors` or `createPayloadRequest` that again, weren't depend
on next.js and potentially can be used outside of next.js.
Now:
All the logic that's not related to next.js now is inside
`packages/payload`, `packages/next/src/routes/rest/index.ts` now is only
_40_ lines instead of 900+
Functions like `headersWithCors` are now implemented and exported in
`payload`. To keep bc, we re-export them from the same path but marked
as `@deprecated`.
You can attach Payload REST API to any backend framework that uses Fetch
API (like Remix / SolidStart / Bun / Hono) if you don't need the admin
panel in your server instance, but you still want to have REST API. The
main function [`handleEndpoints`
](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10466/files#diff-82e97630068f9fc40256f3f46e06226215ab150d16012281810586b51b0cfd51R28)
accepts `Request` and returns `Response`.
It's also doable with Express, but you'd have to convert node.js'
req/res to fetch.
The `ListPreferences` and `ColumnPreferences` types were defined
multiple times in different places, making it difficult to make changes
across the board. Now, the `ListPreferences` type is exported directly
from `payload` alongside the other preferences types, and
`ColumnPreferences` has been merged directly into this type to simplify
usage as this is not a standalone preference.
Currently, unless a locale is present in the URL search params, the
locale context is instantiated using the default locale until prefs load
in client-side. This causes the locale selector to briefly render in
with the incorrect (default) locale before being replaced by the proper
locale of the request. For example, if the default locale is `en`, and
the page is requested in `es`, the locale selector will flash with
English before changing to the correct locale, even though the page data
itself is properly loaded in Spanish. This is especially evident within
slow networks.
The fix is to query the user's locale preference server-side and thread
it into the locale provider to initialize state. Because search params
are not available within server layouts, we cannot pass the locale param
in the same way, so we rely on the provider itself to read them from the
`useSearchParams` hook. If present, this takes precedence over the
user's preference if it exists.
Since the root page also queries the user's locale preference to
determine the proper locale across navigation, we use React's cache
function to dedupe these function calls and ensure only a single query
is made to the db for each request.
If the user has tasks configured, we set up cron jobs on init.
We also make sure to only run on one instance using a instance
identifier stored in a global.
This adds a new property to the payloadCloudPlugin: `jobs`.
It is currently possible to set all types of valid JSON within the
`payload-preferences` collection via the REST API, but not the Local
API. For example, locales are currently saved as plain strings to the
`value` field, something that is only possible through REST. This is
because there is a custom POST handler that submits the data directly to
the db using the update operation itself, bypassing typical `json` field
validation. However, when using the Local API, it does not behave in the
same way, and throws a validation error instead. The fix is to add a
custom `validate` function to this field that attempts to parse the
value, and if it succeeds, returns true. This way both APIs behave the
same.
### What?
In the scheduled publish feature, it is possible to open the modal to
schedule publishing a document even before you have saved a draft. This
change removes the option to open the drawer to even attempt this.
This also fixes an issue if you do not have permission to publish, you
cannot schedule publish either.
### Why?
There were numerous problems:
1. The schedule publish events would show all other publish events for
the collection without an ID in the query
2. Scheduling a publish would not work without an ID for a document to
publish
### How?
Removes the Schedule Publish menu item and drawer if you are on a
collection without an ID or you do not have permission to publish.
Without an ID:

With an ID:

Perviously, you would always have the option to Schedule Publish.
### What?
Export the default Payload JWTAuthentication strategy function for
extending and using in your own custom auth strategies that need to rely
on JWT.
### Why?
This makes it more simple to implement your own custom auth strategy.
All you need to do is set a valid JWT token as a cookie and then import
the default auth strategy so that the user will be recognized.
### How?
Exports the function and makes it reusable by adding a to the args a
strategyName prop. In the `executeAuthStrategies` function we assign the
strategyName from the configured `auth.strategies` own `name` property.
### What?
The status indicator was not updating properly when users were clicking
"unpublish" and "revert changes"
### Why?
hasPublishedDoc, unpublishedVersionCount and
mostRecentVersionIsAutosaved states were not being updated properly.
### How?
This PR updates the variables when interacting with the status actions
and sets mostRecentVersionIsAutosaved to false when the publish button
is clicked.

Fixes#10284. The `admin.disable` property is no longer supported as of
v3. Instead, to opt-out of serving the Admin Panel, REST API, or GraphQL
API, you must delete their corresponding directories within your Next.js
app. For example, to opt-out of everything, delete the `/app/(payload)`
directory entirely. Or to remove specifically the Admin Panel or API
routes, delete the `/app/(payload)/admin` or `/app/(payload)/api`
directories, respectively. Note: if you've modified the default paths
for these routes via `admin.routes`, delete those directories instead.
Makes the wrapper container `<div class='payload-richtext'>` optional.
This is useful when importing and re-using the `<RichText/>` component
as part of another custom component already providing a container.
If the following markdown:
```md
**`text`**
```
was imported and then re-exported, the result was
```md
`**text**`
```
Which would have been rendered as
```html
<code>**text**</code>
```
Instead of
```html
<strong><code>text</code></strong>
```
The localization e2e test is notorious for flaking, consuming a lot of
time and resources continually retrying. This was because the test was
attempting to click DOM elements using selectors that never resolve, or
attempting to click inaccessible DOM nodes such as those behind a modal.
The fix is to ensure that the dot nav, for example, is disabled while
form state loads, and that modals are properly closed prior to executing
subsequent tests, etc. Tests also needed to explicitly check for
_enabled_ states before performing click actions, rather than simply
awaiting their visibility.
Fixes#10018. When toggling columns, then sorting them, the table is
reset to the collection's default columns instead of the user's
preferred columns. This is because when sorting columns, a stale
client-side cache of the user's preferences is used to update their sort
preference. This is because when column state is constructed
server-side, it completely bypasses the client-side cache. To fix this,
sort preferences are now also set on the server right alongside column
preferences, which performs an upsert-like operation to ensure that no
existing preferences are lost.
### What?
If you query with all locales using the `'all'` value for locales, the
`req.locale` value is `'all'` but the type definition only contains the
available locales.
### Why?
The `CustomPayloadRequestProperties.locale` property was only being
typed as `TypedLocale` and was not extending `'all'.`
### How?
Extends type all to the locale type definition in req
Fixes#10244
If `@payload-config` is not set in tsconfig, findConfig could fail when
performing a `path.extname` on an undefined value.
Example error in this scenario:
```
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined.
```
Reproduction steps:
1. Set `strict: true` in `templates/website/tsconfig.json`
2. You will find a ts error in
`templates/website/src/components/RichText/index.tsx`.
This is because the blockType property of blocks is generated by Payload
as a literal (e.g. "mediaBlock") and cannot be assigned to a string.
To test this PR, you can make the change to `JSXConvertersFunction` in
node_modules of the website template
A large number of users have been confused why their upload collection
doesn't work as expected when deploying to Vercel. This is because by
default, Payload uses local disk storage for file uploads - which will
not function properly in that environment.
This adds a warning if a user is deploying on Vercel, and they have any
upload collection missing an adapter - aka, writing to disk.
### What?
Uses `cross-env` for the `dev:payload` script in the plugin template.
### Why?
To achieve compatibility with Windows.
### How?
Adds `cross-env` as a dev dependency and modifies the `dev:payload`
script.

### What?
This patch implements the functionality in `imageResizer` to omit the
generation of the image when either width or height is undefined and
`withoutEnlargement` is set to `undefined`
### Why?
#9986: `withoutEnlargement` doesn't work when `height` is undefined in
`upload.imageSizes`
### How?
This code checks if `withoutEnlargement` is undefined and either
`targetWidth` or `targetHeight` is missing. If so, it further checks
whether the target dimensions (if provided) are larger than the original
image dimensions. If the target would enlarge the image, it returns
'omit', skipping the resizing to prevent enlargement

### What?

### How?

### What?
This PR adjusts the `.gitignore` file in the plugin template to prevent
tracking of the nested `.next` folder.
### Why?
The existing rule excludes a top-level `.next` folder. However, in the
plugin template, next generates the folder in `/dev` instead.
### How?
Adjusting `.gitignore` to consider that `.next` may be nested in
different folders.
Notes:
- Initially I made it explicit, after judging the rest of the file I
realized not everyone likes explicit rules so I simplified. Both
`**/.next/` & `.next/` should be functionally equivalent though.
Say you opened
`http://localhost:3000/admin/collections/posts/67786e917283ec71ce4ab058?branch=main`,
the `branch=main` query param would not be passed to the find operation.
This means that reading `req.query` in, say, an `afterRead` hook, you
would get an empty object back.
This PR threads through `query`, `search` and `searchParams` with the
main goal of making them accessible in hooks.
## Use-case
Custom branch selector component in a collection's edit view.
Select branch => `branch` query param is added to the URL.
Collection `afterRead` hook then fetches the respective content from
that branch (which it gets from `req.query`) and returns its data
This deletes the outdated testing example, as it has not been updated to
Payload v3 yet.
We can add it back in the future once we updated it. Generally, the
Next.js testing docs should now be valid:
https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/testing. However,
it might still make sense to provide a v3 testing example to showcase
things like booting up an in-memory db
### What?
This PR fixes numerous links across the docs, both internal docs links
and external links. This PR also fixes some minor formatting issues in
some places, as well as optically aligns the markdown tables in tables
that had broken links.
### Why?
To properly link readers to the correct location in the docs, and for
better formatting and easier consumption.
### How?
Changes to many `.mdx` files in the `docs` folder.
Notes:
- There are duplicative section id's in `docs/authentication/email.mdx`,
I've fixed one such link, but have left it as is for now.
To reproduce the bug:
1. Within a Lexical editor, insert a relationship field.
2. In the drawer, change the selected collection.
3. The table below changes correctly, but the title and the "create new"
button quickly revert to the original option.

Fixes#9882 and #9691
In 2.0, we would accept data coming back from an update operation and
then reflect those changes in UI.
However, in 3.0, we did not do that anymore - meaning you could change a
document with hooks in `beforeChange` or `afterChange`, but then not see
the changes made on the server.
This PR updates the way that `mergeServerFormState` works, and adds a
property to optionally allow values from server form state - which can
then be used in the `onSuccess` form handler which may need to define
new field values.
Allows to set `maxDepth: 0` for join fields and improves JSDoc about
`maxDepth`, adds tests to confirm that
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10243 is not an issue, but
just happens because the default `maxDepth` is `1`.
### What
The vercel storage adapter returns a 500 internal server error when a
file is not found.
It's expected that it will return 404 when a file is not found.
### Why
The `head` function from vercel blob sdk does not return undefined when
a blob is not found, but throws an error as documented here:
https://vercel.com/docs/storage/vercel-blob/using-blob-sdk#head
### How
Check if exception thrown is of type BlobNotFoundError and return a 404
in that case.
### Testing
***Note***: I have not been able to test this inside payload itself as
I'm unable to build a package to test with. I have tested the
implementation outside. Is it possible to get a canary build so proper
testing with package can be done?

This PR adds a button to the `/account` view which allows users to reset
their preferences on-demand. This is to that editors can quickly reset their
preferences via the admin ui without the need of accessing the db directly,
which was simply not possible before. To do this, we add a new button at
the bottom of the account view which performs a standard `DELETE`
request using the REST API to the `'payload-preferences'` collection.
Related: #9949

Since the `@payloadcms/live-preview-react` package could be installed
within headless front-ends, it does not necessarily need to be
restricted to only React 19. This package does not use any newer React
features since hooks were introduced in v16.8.0. For this reason, the
peer deps have been loosened to allow this and all other major versions
up to React 19. This change was first introduced in #6387.
### What?
`path` was missing in server component prop types.
### How?
Adds a BaseFieldServerProps for each field type that accepts takes
`path` as a prop.
### What?
Previously, `.env` & `.env.example` modifications during `cpa` occurred
after a project was initialized.
### Why?
As a result, these modifications would be seen as uncommitted
modifications in the project repo.
### How?
Now, we make these modifications in the `createProject` script before
the project is initialized.
Also, updates the **template** `.env.example` files to use the generic
db name `your-database-name` for better alignment & clarity.

When updating password within the account view, the server console
throws an error because it is unable to find the remaining user fields
when building form state. This was because the field schema map sets
these fields within its own `_users.auth` key, separate from the other
fields. When the form submits, it uses this key as the schema path,
which may not contain all user fields, even though it sends full
document data through the request.
Fixes#10296. When an async `useEffect` runs twice or more before
resolving, we use the Abort Controller API to cancel previous events.
This works by instantiating a new ref on each run, and if a previous ref
was detected, it will be aborted and a new instance will be set up for
the next run. However, while the logic was aborting previous instances
as expected, it was failing to instantiate a new one.
Whenever form state fails, like when field conditions, validations, or
default value functions throw errors, blocks and array rows are stuck
within an infinite loading state. Examples of this might be when
accessing properties of undefined within these functions, etc. Although
these errors are logged to the server console, the UI is be misleading,
where the user often waits for the request to resolve rather than
understanding that an underlying API error has occurred. Now, we safely
execute these functions within a `try...catch` block and handle their
failures accordingly. On the client, form state will resolve as expected
using the default return values for these functions.
### What?
This PR aims to prevent a runtime error by allowing deletions in media
collections and preventing them from impacting workflows while using
`hasMany` upload fields.
### Why?
To prevent runtime issues during common tasks.
### How?
By treating deleted media documents as empty placeholders instead of
undefined objects.

[Dashboard-after--Payload.webm](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b5cb67b8-21de-403c-879c-680e49fd380c)
Notes:
- There is room for improvement here: allow selection of existing media
in upload collection instead of forcing user to upload new. Workaround
is to remove the row and choose existing as usual.
- New uploads chosen will always replace the first instance of undefined
placeholder due to the simple check. If you have 3 deleted entries and
open the drawer on the second one, then it will populate the first one
anyway. This can be improved but will require more laborious code
changes.
- Noticed an issue where deleted non-hasMany upload fields do not
re-render after a file is uploaded. It only shows the previous deleted
doc, ie id: "untitled - ID: ...". Re-renders correctly when choosing
from existing. This is unrelated to this PR. I will investigate further.
- I'm realizing this actually diverges from what `db-postgres` does, as
deleted entries in a `hasMany` upload gets removed from the field in the
initial deletion probably due to cascading the deletion...
When hitting the delete or updates routes and no docs were effected, the
API returns success messages with improper verb tenses, i.e. `Deleted 0
Post successfully`.
fix#10197
The template was missing defining internalDocToHref.
This callback is necessary because Payload does not know which URLs each
document will be displayed on.

This The plugin order in postcss.config.js was causing UI rendering
issues in mobile Safari (#10135). This pull request affects the website
template and the vercel website template.

// Website template: /templates/website/postcss.config.js
// Vercel website template: /templates/with-vercel-website/postcss.config.js
export default {
plugins: {

### What?
Previously, while uploading a file - if the uploading process took a bit
of time, users could still save the document prior to the upload fully
completing.
### Why?
During the uploading process - the save button should be disabled until
the upload is complete to prevent premature saving of an upload
document.
### How?
Now, we keep track of the state of the upload in a provider and disable
the save button until the file is fully uploaded.

Notes:
- I think the `basePath` check/manipulation might be better in the RSC

here, my mistake!
Fixes#10234. Some fields, such as focal point fields for upload enabled
collections, were rendering in the condition selector despite being
hidden from the column selector. This was because the logic for the
column selector was filtering fields without labels, but the same was
not being done for the filter conditions. This, however, is not a good
way to filter these fields as it requires this specific logic to be
written in multiple places. Instead, they need to explicitly check for
`hidden` and `disabled` in addition to `disableListFilter` and
`disableListColumn`. The actual filtering logic has been improved across
the two instances as well, removing multiple duplicative loops.
This change has also exposed a underlying issue with the way columns
were handled within the table columns provider. When row selections were
enabled, the selector columns were present in column state. This caused
problems when interacting with column indices, such as when reordering
columns. Instead of needing to manually filter these out every time we
need to work with column state, they no longer appear there in the first
place. Instead, we inject the row selectors directly into the table
itself, completely isolating these row selectors from the column state.
Adds more control over how you can disable GraphQL queries / mutations
for collections and globals.
For example, you might want to disable all GraphQL queries and mutations
for a given collection, but you still have relationship fields that
relate to that collection, therefore depend on the types being
generated.
Now, instead of passing `graphQL: false` (which completely disables
everything, including types, which would break relationship fields) you
can now specify `graphQL.disableQueries: true` and
`graphQL.disableMutations: true`to keep the types, but disable just the
queries / mutations.
Closes#9893
What?
This PR fixes an issue with the WhereBuilder where if the first field in
a collection had disableListFilter enabled, the select in that fields
Condition would be rendered disabled, making it impossible to query docs
in list view.
Why?
To allow users to query their documents while still being able to set
disableListFilter on fields regardless of where they are in the
collection hierarchy.
How?
By setting the intitial field selection to the first
`admin.listDisabledColumn: false` field when clicking the Add Condition
button in the WhereBuilder and Condition components.

### What?
On windows, the `payload-graphql generate:schema` command fails.
### Why?
Because the config it's trying to load is `c:\path\to\config.js`, which
node interprets as `\path\to\config.js` on the `c:` protocol.
### How?
By changing it to use a file URL, as in `file:\\\c:\path\to\config.js`.
The change is the same as what the main `payload` cli does:

There were a handful of list view e2e tests written into the text and
email field test suite, making them hard to find as they were isolated

### What?
Exit process after `payload jobs:run` without cron is executed
### Why?
I would expect the `payload jobs:run` command to exit normally after
execution. With mongodb this is not the case as database connections are
open so the node process itself will not exit.
### How?
Execute `payload.db.destroy` to close all db connections after queue is
execution is done.

Removes the useless `_verified` checkbox from user creation. We can't

When using various controls within the List View, those selections are
sometimes not persisted. This is especially evident when selecting
`perPage` from the List View, where the URL and UI would reflect this
selection, but the controls would be stale. Similarly, after changing
`perPage` then navigating to another page through the pagination
controls, `perPage` would reset back to the original value. Same with
the sort controls, where sorting by a particular column would not be
reflected in the UI. This was because although we modify the URL search
params and fire off a new query with those changes, we were not updating
local component state.
Adds the ability to create a project using an existing in the Payload
repo example through `create-payload-app`:
For example:
`pnpx create-payload-app --example custom-server` - creates a project
from the
[custom-server](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/custom-server)
example.
This is much easier and faster then downloading the whole repo and
copying the example to another folder.
Note that we don't configure the payload config with the storage / DB
adapter there because examples can be very specific.
Separates `exports`, `main`, `types` for publish / dev with
`publishConfig` for the plugin template. Previously, you needed a `dist`
folder to run payload bin scripts.

If the actual database schema is not changed (no new columns, enums,

use `PAYLOAD_FORCE_DRIZZLE_PUSH=true` env flag.

### What?
This PR fixes an issue where multiple `upload` fields would sequentially
overwrite the `BulkUpload` internal `onSuccess` function causing new
uploads to populate the incorrect field from which the interaction
started.
### Why?
Sequential `upload` fields use a `useEffect` to set the success function
of the `BulkUpload` provider component, however this did not take into
account many `upload` fields in a single document. This PR prevents many
`upload` fields from overriding their sibling's `onSuccess` function in
order to populate those fields correctly.
### How?
By changing the way the bulk upload component handles success functions
from a singular function to a map of functions based on a string path of
the field, or if necessary, using a collection slug in the case of a
bulk upload on an `upload` collection list view.

Fixes#10180. When logged in as an unauthorized user who cannot access
the admin panel, the user is unable to log out through the prompted
`/admin/logout` page. This was because that page was using an incorrect
API endpoint, reading from `admin.user` instead of `user.collection`
when formatting the route. This page was also able to get stuck in an
infinite loading state when attempting to log out without any user at
all. Now, public users can properly log out and then back in with
another user who might have access. The messaging around this was also
misleading. Instead of displaying the "Unauthorized, you must be logged
in to make this request" message, we now display a new "Unauthorized,
this user does not have access to the admin panel" message for added
clarity.
As pointed out in #10164, parsing a `where` query from search params is
not exactly straightforward. Internally we rely on the `qs` module for
this, but it comes with a couple small nuances that are undocumented,
like the need to stringify them and specify depth. To standardize this,
we use a `parseSearchParams` utility internally that accepts the
`URLSearchParams` object that the `useSearchParams()` hook returns from
`next/navigation`. This PR exports that function for reuse and adds
JSDocs accordingly. Usage looks something like this:
```tsx
'use client'
import { useSearchParams } from 'next/navigation'
import { parseSearchParams } from '@payloadcms/ui'
function MyComponent() {
const searchParams = useSearchParams()
const parsedSearchParams = parseSearchParams(searchParams)
}

### How?
Now, to differentiate parent `self_joins` and children `self_joins` we
do additional alias for the nested select -
`"4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"`:
```sql
select
"id",
"rel_id",
"updated_at",
"created_at",
(
select
coalesce(
json_agg(
json_build_object('id', "joins_alias".id)
),
'[]' :: json
)
from
(
select
"created_at",
"rel_id",
"id"
from
"self_joins" "4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"
where
"4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"."rel_id" = "self_joins"."id"
order by
"4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"."created_at" desc
limit
$1
) "joins_alias"
) as "joins_alias"
from
"self_joins"
where
"self_joins"."id" = $2
order by
"self_joins"."created_at" desc
limit
$3
```

Fixes#10070. Adding new blocks or array rows can randomly get stuck
within an infinite loading state. This was because the abort controllers
responsible for disregarding duplicate `onChange` and `onSave` events
was not properly resetting its refs across invocations. This caused
subsequent event handlers to incorrectly abort themselves, leading to
unresolved requests and a `null` form state. Similarly, the cleanup
effects responsible for aborting these requests on component unmount
were also referencing its `current` property directly off the refs,
which can possible be stale if not first set as a variable outside the
return function.
This PR also carries over some missing `onSave` logic from the default
edit view into the live preview view. In the future the logic between
these two views should be standardized, as they're nearly identical but
often become out of sync. This can likely be done through the use of
reusable hooks, such as `useOnSave`, `useOnChange`, etc. Same with the
document locking functionality which is complex and deeply integrated
into each of these views.
Live Preview message events were typed with the generic `MessageEvent`
interface without passing any of the Live Preview specific properties,
leading to unknown types upon use. To fix this, there is a new
`LivePreviewMessageEvent` which properly extends the underlying
`MessageEvent` interface, providing much needed type safety to these
functions. In the same vein, the `UpdatedDocument` type was not being
properly shared across packages, leading to multiple independent
definitions of this type. This type is now exported from `payload`
itself and renamed to `DocumentEvent` for improved semantics. Same with
the `FieldSchemaJSON` type. This PR also adjusts where globally scoped
variables are set, putting them within the shared `_payloadLivePreview`
namespace instead of setting them individually at the top-level.
### What?
This fixes a couple of broken links, specifically to the CSRF and the
e-mail verification doc pages, which appear to have been moved from the
root Authentication page.
### Why?
While it makes sense to familiarize one self with the Authentication
Overview page as well, if you are specifically looking for info on CSRF
protection (which I was doing while evaluting Payload for my agency),
the link should go to the right place.
Fix#9964
Now we make sure that the node for the previous selection exists before
restoring it to avoid a runtime error.
I also optimized the performance of a function in the client feature.
In the future, we should centralize the insertion of all decorator
blocks in one place. There are several things to improve. For example,
currently an additional paragraph is inserted (in addition to the one
for the selection we delete).

### What?
This PR fixes an issue where the unpublish modal was unreachable due to
the high `z-index` on `Drawer` components. This makes unpublishing
documents from a drawer impossible. For example, when editting a
document from the drawer opened in a `RelationshipTable`.
### Why?
To allow editors to be able to unpublish docs regardless of drawer depth
and context.
### How?
By rendering the unpublish modal at a sufficiently high z-index, while
taking into account edit depth.

IDs that are supplied directly through the API, such as client-side
generated IDs when adding new blocks and array rows, are overwritten on
create. This is because when adding blocks or array rows on the client,
their IDs are generated first before being sent to the server for
processing. Then when the server receives this data, it incorrectly
overrides them to ensure they are unique when using relational DBs. But
this only needs to happen when no ID was supplied on create, or
specifically when duplicating documents via the `beforeDuplicate` hook.
### What?
Exposes ability to enable
[AUTOINCREMENT](https://www.sqlite.org/autoinc.html) for Primary Keys
which ensures that the same ID cannot be reused from previously deleted
rows.
```ts
sqliteAdapter({
autoIncrement: true
})
```
### Why?
This may be essential for some systems. Enabled `autoIncrement: true`
also for the SQLite Adapter in our tests, which can be useful when
testing whether the doc was deleted or not when you also have other
create operations.
### How?
Uses Drizzle's `autoIncrement` option.
WARNING:
This cannot be enabled in an existing project without a custom
migration, as it completely changes how primary keys are stored in the
database.

I noticed that payload.secret was getting logged via console.log, adding
a significant security risk.
Removed the console.log statements from three preview/route.ts files.
### What?
Previously, the `with-vercel-website` template included a `DATABASE_URI`
env var in the `.env.example` file - which was unneeded.
### Why?
The `with-vercel-website` template uses a `POSTGRES_URL` env var for the
db connection string env var instead.
### How?
Removes the `DATABASE_URI` env var from the .env.example file.
Also, updates the `DATABASE_URI` db string names in the following
templates from `payloadtests` to `your-database-name` for a more generic
/ clear name:
- with-postgres
- with-vercel-mongodb
- with-vercel-postgres
- with-vercel-website
The auth example was not properly awaiting `getHeaders` from
`next/navigation`. This was simply outdated, as this function was
changed to async over the course of the various RC versions during our
beta phase.
* Avoids additional file system writes (1 for `await writeFile` and then
`npx prettier --write`) instead prettier now formats the javascript
string directly. Went from 650 MS to 250 MS for the prettify block.
* Disables database connection, since the `db.generateSchema` doesn't
need connection, this also disables Drizzle schema push.
* Properly exits the bin script process.
The auth example was still on `v3.0.0-beta.24`, was missing its users
collection config, and was not yet using the component paths pattern
established here: #7246. This updates to latest and fixes these issues.
This example can still use further improvements and housekeeping which
will come in future PRs.

### What?
The join field had a limitation imposed that prevents it from targeting
polymorphic relationship fields. With this change we can support any
relationship fields.
### Why?
Improves the functionality of join field.
### How?
Extended the database adapters and removed the config sanitization that
would throw an error when polymorphic relationships were used.
Fixes #
This PR allows to have full type safety on `payload.drizzle` with a
single command
```sh
pnpm payload generate:db-schema
```
Which generates TypeScript code with Drizzle declarations based on the
current database schema.
Example of generated file with the website template:

Video that shows the power:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3ced958b-ec1d-49f5-9f51-d859d5fae236
We also now proxy drizzle package the same way we do for Lexical so you
don't have to install it (and you shouldn't because you may have version
mismatch).
Instead, you can import from Drizzle like this:
```ts
import {
pgTable,
index,
foreignKey,
integer,
text,
varchar,
jsonb,
boolean,
numeric,
serial,
timestamp,
uniqueIndex,
pgEnum,
} from '@payloadcms/db-postgres/drizzle/pg-core'
import { sql } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres/drizzle'
import { relations } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres/drizzle/relations'
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/4318
In the future we can also support types generation for mongoose / raw
mongodb results.
Previously, queries like this didn't work:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'polymorphic-relationships',
where: {
polymorphicLocalized: {
equals: {
relationTo: 'movies',
value: movie.id,
},
},
},
})
```
This was due to the incorrectly passed path to MongoDB without
`.{locale}` suffix.
Additionally, to MongoDB now we send:
```
{
$or: [
{
polymorphic: {
$eq: {
relationTo: formattedValue.relationTo,
value: formattedValue.value,
},
},
},
{
polymorphic: {
$eq: {
relationTo: 'movies',
value: 'some-id',
},
},
},
],
},
```
Instead of:
```
{
$and: [
{
'polymorphic.relationTo': {
$eq: 'movies ',
},
},
{
'polymorphic.value': {
$eq: 'some-id ',
},
},
],
}
```
To match the _exact_ value. This is essential when we do querying by
relationships with `hasMany: true` and custom IDs that can be repeated.
`$or` is needed if for some reason keys are stored in the DB in a
different order
We merged https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9773 that adds
support for join field with relationships inside arrays, it just happens
that now it's also true for relationships inside blocks, added a test
case with blocks.
This just corrects initial data drawer calculation with the "add new"
button if we encounter a blocks field in join's `on`.
### What?
Previously, the `req` argument:
In database operations (e.g `payload.db`) was required and you needed to
pass the whole `req` with all the properties. This is confusing because
in database operations we never use its properties outside of
`req.transactionID` and `req.t`, both of which should be optional as
well.
Now, you don't have to do that cast:
```ts
payload.db.findOne({
collection: 'posts',
req: {} as PayloadRequest,
where: {
id: {
equals: 1,
},
},
})
```
Becomes:
```ts
payload.db.findOne({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
id: {
equals: 1,
},
},
})
```
If you need to use transactions, you're not required to do the `as` cast
as well now, as the `req` not only optional but also partial -
`Partial<PayloadRequest>`.
`initTransaction`, `commitTransaction`, `killTransaction` utilities are
typed better now as well. They do not require to you pass all the
properties of `req`, but only `payload` -
`MarkRequired<Partial<PayloadRequest>, 'payload'>`
```ts
const req = { payload }
await initTransaction(req)
await payload.db.create({
collection: "posts",
data: {},
req
})
await commitTransaction(req)
```
The same for the Local API. Internal operations (for example
`packages/payload/src/collections/operations/find.ts`) still accept the
whole `req`, but local ones
(`packages/payload/src/collections/operations/local/find.ts`) which are
used through `payload.` now accept `Partial<PayloadRequest>`, as they
pass it through to internal operations with `createLocalReq`.
So now, this is also valid, while previously you had to do `as` cast for
`req`.
```ts
const req = { payload }
await initTransaction(req)
await payload.create({
collection: "posts",
data: {},
req
})
await commitTransaction(req)
```
Marked as deprecated `PayloadRequest['transactionIDPromise']` to remove
in the next major version. It was never used anywhere.
Refactored `withSession` that returns an object to `getSession` that
returns just `ClientSession`. Better type safety for arguments
Deduplicated in all drizzle operations to `getTransaction(this, req)`
utility:
```ts
const db = this.sessions[await req?.transactionID]?.db || this.drizzle
```
Added fallback for throwing unique validation errors in database
operations when `req.t` is not available.
In migration `up` and `down` functions our `req` is not partial, while
we used to passed `req` with only 2 properties - `payload` and
`transactionID`. This is misleading and you can't access for example
`req.t`.
Now, to achieve "real" full `req` - we generate it with `createLocalReq`
in all migration functions.
This all is backwards compatible. In all public API places where you
expect the full `req` (like hooks) you still have it.
### Why?
Better DX, more expected types, less errors because of types casting.
### What?
Querying by nested to rows fields in has many relationships like this:
```ts
const result = await payload.find({
collection: 'relationship-fields',
where: {
'relationToRowMany.title': { equals: 'some-title' },
},
})
```
Where the related collection:
```ts
const RowFields: CollectionConfig = {
slug: rowFieldsSlug,
fields: [
{
type: 'row',
fields: [
{
name: 'title',
label: 'Title within a row',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
},
],
}
```
was broken
### Why?
We migrated to use `flattenedFields`, but not in this specific case.
This error would be caught earlier we used `noImplictAny` typescript
rule. https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig/#noImplicitAny which
wouldn't allow us to create variable like this:
```ts
let relationshipFields // relationshipFields is any here
```
Instead, we should write:
```ts
let relationshipFields: FlattenedField[]
```
We should migrate to it and `strictNullChecks` as well.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9534
Although we have a dedicated e2e test suite for custom IDs, tests for
custom unnamed tab and row IDs were still located within the admin test
suite. This consolidates these tests into the appropriate test suite as
expected.
The forgotPassword operation exits silently if no user is found, but
because we don't throw an error the transaction never gets committed
leading to a timeout.

This PR makes changes to every storage adapter in order to add
browser-based caching by returning etags, then checking for them into
incoming requests and responding a status code of `304` so the data
doesn't have to be returned again.
Performance improvements for cached subsequent requests:

This respects `disableCache` in the dev tools.
Also fixes a bug with getting the latest image when using the Vercel
Blob Storage adapter.
By default, if a task has passed previously and a workflow is re-run,
the task will not be re-run. Instead, the output from the previous task
run will be returned. This is to prevent unnecessary re-runs of tasks
that have already passed.
This PR allows you to configure this behavior through the
`retries.shouldRestore` property. This property accepts a boolean or a
function for more complex restore behaviors.
### What?
Previously, upload files urls were not being encoded.
### Why?
As a result, this could lead to discrepancies where upload filenames
with spaces - the spaces would not be encoded as %20 in the URL.
### How?
To address this issue, we simply need to encode the filename of the
upload media.

Previously, if you selected only upload `hasMany: true` field, you would

Should fix messed up import suggestions and simplifies all tsconfigs
through inheritance.
One main issue was that packages were inheriting `baseURL: "."` from the
root tsconfig. This caused incorrect import suggestions that start with
"packages/...".
This PR ensures that packages do not inherit this baseURL: "." property,
while ensuring the root, non-inherited tsconfig still keeps it to get
tests to work (the importMap needs it)
CPA projects generated with the `vercel-postgres` db type were not
receiving the proper DB env vars in the .env.example & .env files
With the `vercel-postgres` db type, the DB env var needs to be

Additionally, updates the generated .env.example file to show generic
env var strings.

Fixes#9996
### What?
Allow the join field to have a configuration `on` relationships inside
of an array, ie `on: 'myArray.myRelationship'`.
### Why?
This is a more powerful and expressive way to use the join field and not
be limited by usage of array data. For example, if you have a roles
array for multinant sites, you could add a join field on the sites to
show who the admins are.
### How?
This fixes the traverseFields function to allow the configuration to
pass sanitization. In addition, the function for querying the drizzle
tables needed to be ehanced.
Additional changes from https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9995:
- Significantly improves traverseFields and the 'join' case with a raw
query injection pattern, right now it's internal but we could expose it
at some point, for example for querying vectors.
- Fixes potential issues with not passed locale to traverseFields (it
was undefined always)
- Adds an empty array fallback for joins with localized relationships

Fixes#9888. Field permissions were not being passed into custom
components. This led to custom components, such as arrays and blocks,
unable to render default Payload fields. This was because their props
lacked the permissions object required for rendering. For example:
```ts
'use client'
import type { ArrayFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
import { ArrayField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export const MyArray: ArrayFieldClientComponent = (props) => <ArrayField {...props} />
```
In this example the array field itself would render, but the fields
within each row would not, because the array field did not pass its
permissions down to the rows.
### What?
`previousValue` was incorrect. It would always return the current value.
### Why?
It was accessing siblingData instead of siblingDoc. Other hooks use
siblingDoc, but this one was using siblingData.

By triggering a rerender that syncs `populatedDocs` to the fields
`value` on each sequential successful upload after form errors were
resolved.

This PR fixes an issue in the hero banner of website templates where
`priority` was passed to `ImageMedia` component but was incompatible with
NextImage `loading="lazy"`, causing error. The fix is to add a ternary
condition to check if `priority` prop is passed before setting `loading.

### What?
This PR allows you to use a local database when using
`vercelPostgresAdapter`. This adapter doesn't work with them because it
requires an SSL connection and Neon's WS proxy. Instead we fallback to
using pool from `pg` if `hostname` is either `127.0.0.1` or `localhost`.
If you still want to use `@vercel/postgres` even locally you can pass
`disableUsePgForLocalDatabase: true` here and you'd have to spin up the
DB with a special Neon's Docker Compose setup -
https://vercel.com/docs/storage/vercel-postgres/local-development#option-2:-local-postgres-instance-with-docker
### Why?
Forcing people to use a cloud database locally isn't great. Not only
they are slow but also paid.

Extension of #9933. Custom components are returned by form state,
meaning that if we don't wait for form state to return before rendering
row labels, the default row label component will render in briefly
before being swapped by a custom component (if applicable). Using the
new `isLoading` prop on array and block rows, we can conditionally
render them just as we currently do for the row fields themselves.
Previously with `@payloadcms/plugin-storage-blob`, if token was not set,
the plugin would throw an error. This caused a less-than-ideal developer
experience.
With this change, if the `token` value is undefined:
- Local storage will be used as a fallback
- The error will no longer be thrown.
Hero images should use the `priority` property so that browsers will
preload them. This is because hero images, by definition, are rendered
"above the fold" and should be treated as such, optimizing LCP. This
also means these images should _not_ define a `loading` strategy, as
this disregards the priority flag.

Rework of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/5912
### What?
Now, when `defaultValue` is defined as function you can receive the
`req` argument:
```ts
{
name: 'defaultValueFromReq',
type: 'text',
defaultValue: async ({ req, user, locale }) => {
return Promise.resolve(req.context.defaultValue)
},
},
```
`user` and `locale` even though are repeated in `req`, this potentially
leaves some room to add more args in the future without removing them
now.
This also improves type for `defaultValue`:
```ts
type SerializableValue = boolean | number | object | string
export type DefaultValue =
| ((args: {
locale?: TypedLocale
req: PayloadRequest
user: PayloadRequest['user']
}) => SerializableValue)
| SerializableValue
```
### Why?
To access the current URL / search params / Local API and other things
directly in `defaultValue`.
### How?
Passes `req` through everywhere where we call `defaultValue()`
### What?
Removes the `localized` property from typescript suggestion for row and
collapsible fields.
### Why?
Currently, this property doesn't do anything for them. This may be
changed when/if we support `name` for them, but it'll work only with
`name`.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/4720
Add the ability to specify which columns should appear in the
relationship table of a join fields
The new property is in the Join field `admin.defaultColumns` and can be
set to an array of strings containing the field names in the desired
order.
In PR #9930 we added `overrideAccess: false` to the find operation and
failed to pass the user. This caused
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9974 where any access
control causes the edit view to error.
The fix was to pass the user through.
This change also adds Join Field e2e tests to the CI pipeline which was
previously missing and would have caught the error.
When installing Payload, `react-select` currently throws a dependency
warning because `v5.8.0` does not include React 19 in its peer deps. As
of `v5.9.0`, it now does thanks to
https://github.com/JedWatson/react-select/pull/5984.
The post-release-templates workflow gets triggered whenever we create a
github release. It is fed the git tag. A script is then run to update
the templates' migrations and lockfile (if applicable).
There was a scenario where despite the packages already being published
to npm a few minutes prior, this process would error out saying that the
latest version was not available.
This PR adds a script that polls for 5 minutes against npm to wait for
the newly published version to resolve and match the git release tag.
### What?
Adds the ability to set custom validation rules on the root `graphQL`
config property and the ability to define custom complexity on
relationship, join and upload type fields.
### Why?
**Validation Rules**
These give you the option to add your own validation rules. For example,
you may want to prevent introspection queries in production. You can now
do that with the following:
```ts
import { GraphQL } from '@payloadcms/graphql/types'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
// ...
graphQL: {
validationRules: (args) => [
NoProductionIntrospection
]
},
// ...
})
const NoProductionIntrospection: GraphQL.ValidationRule = (context) => ({
Field(node) {
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
if (node.name.value === '__schema' || node.name.value === '__type') {
context.reportError(
new GraphQL.GraphQLError(
'GraphQL introspection is not allowed, but the query contained __schema or __type',
{ nodes: [node] }
)
);
}
}
}
})
```
**Custom field complexity**
You can now increase the complexity of a field, this will help users
from running queries that are too expensive. A higher number will make
the `maxComplexity` trigger sooner.
```ts
const fieldWithComplexity = {
name: 'authors',
type: 'relationship',
relationship: 'authors',
graphQL: {
complexity: 100, // highlight-line
}
}
```

Currently, custom components do not respect `admin.condition` unless
manually wrapped with the `withCondition` HOC, like all default fields
currently do. This should not be a requirement of component authors.
Instead, we can automatically detect custom client and server fields and
wrap them with the underlying `WatchCondition` component which will
subscribe to the `passesCondition` property within client-side form
state.
For my future self: there are potentially multiple instances where
fields subscribe to conditions duplicately, such as when rendering a
default Payload field within a custom field component. This was always a
problem and it is non-breaking, but needs to be reevaluated and removed
in the future for performance. Only the default fields that Payload
renders client-side need to subscribe to field conditions in this way.
When importing a Payload field into your custom field component, for
example, it should not include the HOC, because custom components now
watch conditions themselves.
As field tests grow in size, they need to be moved out of the greater
fields test spec and into their own standalone files for readability,
maintainability, and speed. This way they we can write field tests in a
more isolated environment, and they can run in parallel in CI.
## Bug Fix
### Issue
Draft children documents get overwritten when the parent document is
published.
### Fix
Correctly retrieve all documents, including drafts, during the resave
process. Add test to ensure parent documents can be published without
impacting the state of any children docs.
When a condition exists on a field and it resolves to `false`, it
currently "blinks" in and out when rendered within an array or block
row. This is because when add rows to form state, we iterate over the
_fields_ of that row and render their respective components. Then when
conditions are checked for that field, we're expecting `passesCondition`
to be explicitly `false`, ultimately _rendering_ the field for a brief
moment before form state returns with evaluated conditions. The fix is
to set these fields into local form state with a new `isLoading: true`
prop, then display a loader within the row until form state returns with
its proper conditions.
Exposes `pagination: false` to REST / GraphQL to improve performance on
large collections by avoiding count query.
This will also be nice for our SDK
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9463 to have the same
properties.
### What?
The `readOnly` prop was not being passed down to the `email` &
`username` auth fields.
Resulting in these fields not being disabled properly if `update` access
was restricted.
### How?
Passes the `readOnly` prop through to the fields and now properly
disables these fields if `update` access is restricted.
### What?
Previously, only `.` & `-` special chars were allowed in usernames
### How?
Now - all special chars are accepted during username creating like `@`
When opening payload in our monorepo and then working on a different
project that comes with a frontend, it will automatically redirect me
from localhost:3000 => localhost:3000/admin, not letting me view the
landing page until I clear my browser cache.
I'm hoping this will fix it

Currently, predefined migrations can only be loaded if they are part of
one of our db adapters.
With this PR, plugins will be able to export their own predefined
migrations that can be created like this:
`pnpm payload migrate:create --file
@payloadcms/plugin-someplugin/someMigration`
with the plugin exporting it in their package.json:
```json
"exports": {
"./someMigration": {
"import": "./someMigration.mjs",
"types": "./someMigration.mjs",
"default": "./someMigration.mjs"
}
},
```
### What?
`payload.db.updateOne` (and so `payload.db.upsert`) with drizzle
adapters used incoming `where` incorrectly and worked properly only
either if you passed `id` or some where query path required table joins
(like `where: { 'array.title'`) which is also the reason why `upsert`
_worked_ with user preferences specifically, because we need to join the
`preferences_rels` table to query by `user.relationTo` and `user.value`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9915
This was found here - https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9913,
the database KV adapter uses `upsert` with `where` by unique fields.
### What?
Previously, the `admin.group` property on `collection` / `global`
configs allowed for a custom group and the `admin.hidden` property would
not only hide the entity from the nav sidebar / dashboard but also
disable its routes.
### Why?
There was not a simple way to hide an entity from the nav sidebar /
dashboard but still keep the entities routes.
### How?
Now - we've added the `false` type to the `admin.group` field to account
for this.
Passing `false` to `admin.group` will hide the entity from the sidebar
nav and dashboard but keep the routes available to navigate.
I.e
```
admin: {
group: false,
},
```

We were still including field custom components in the ClientConfig,
which will throw an error if actual server-only properties were passed
to `PayloadComponent.serverProps`. This PR removes them from the
ClientConfig
This PR adds a feature which fixes another issue with migrations in
Postgres and does few refactors that significantly reduce code
duplication.
Previously, if you needed to use the underlying database directly in
migrations with the active transaction (for example to execute raw SQL),
created from `payload create:migration`, as `req` doesn't work there you
had to do something like this:
```ts
// Postgres
export async function up({ payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
const db = payload.db.sessions?.[await req.transactionID!].db ?? payload.db
const { rows: posts } = await db.execute(sql`SELECT * from posts`)
}
// MongoDB
export async function up({ payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
const session = payload.db.sessions?.[await req.transactionID!]
const posts = await payload.db.collections.posts.collection.find({ session }).toArray()
}
```
Which was:
1. Awkward to write
2. Not documented anywhere
Now, we expose `session` and `db` to `up` and `down` functions for you:
#### MongoDB:
```ts
import { type MigrateUpArgs } from '@payloadcms/db-mongodb'
export async function up({ session, payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
const posts = await payload.db.collections.posts.collection.find({ session }).toArray()
}
```
#### Postgres:
```ts
import { type MigrateUpArgs, sql } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
export async function up({ db, payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
const { rows: posts } = await db.execute(sql`SELECT * from posts`)
}
```
#### SQLite:
```ts
import { type MigrateUpArgs, sql } from '@payloadcms/db-sqlite'
export async function up({ db, payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
const { rows: posts } = await db.run(sql`SELECT * from posts`)
}
```
This actually was a thing with Postgres migrations, we already were
passing `db`, but:
1. Only for `up` and when running `payload migrate`, not for example
with `payload migrate:fresh`
2. Not documented neither in TypeScript or docs.
By ensuring we use `db`, this also fixes an issue that affects all
Postgres/SQLite migrations:
Currently, if we run `payload migration:create` with the postgres
adapter we get a file like this:
```ts
import { MigrateUpArgs, MigrateDownArgs, sql } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
export async function up({ payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
await payload.db.drizzle.execute(sql`
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "users" (
"id" serial PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
);
```
Looks good?
Not exactly!
`payload.db.drizzle.execute()` doesn't really use the current
transaction which can lead to some problems.
Instead, it should use the `db` from `payload.db.sessions?.[await
req.transactionID!].db` because that's where we store our Drizzle
instance with the transaction.
But now, if we generate `payload migrate:create` we get:
```ts
import { MigrateUpArgs, MigrateDownArgs, sql } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
export async function up({ db, payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
await db.execute(sql`
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "users" (
"id" serial PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
);
```
Which is what we want, as the `db` is passed correctly here:
76428373e4/packages/drizzle/src/migrate.ts (L88-L90)
```ts
export async function up({ db, payload, req }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
const dbWithTransaction = payload.db.sessions?.[await req.transactionID!].db
payload.logger.info({ one: db === dbWithTransaction })
payload.logger.info({ two: db === payload.db.drizzle })
```

Additionally, this PR refactors:
* `createMigration` with Drizzle - now we have sharable
`buildCreateMigration` in `@payloadcms/drizzle` to reduce copy-pasting
of the same logic.
* the `v2-v3` relationships migration for Postgres is now shared between
`db-postgres` and `db-vercel-postgres`, again to reduce copy-paste.
This PR threads default `serverProps` to Edit and List view action slots, as well as other various components that were missing them.

Previously, Autosave could trigger 2 parallel fetches where the second
could outpace the first, leading to inconsistent results.
Now, we use a simple queue-based system where we can push multiple
autosave events into a queue, and only the latest autosave will be
performed.
This also prevents multiple autosaves from ever running in parallel.
### What?
There are scenarios where the server-rendered HTML might intentionally
differ from the client-rendered DOM causing `Hydration` errors in the
DOM.
### How?
Added a new prop to the payload config `admin` object called
`suppressHydrationWarning` that allows control to display these warnings
or not.
If you set `suppressHydrationWarning` to `true`, React will not warn you
about mismatches in the attributes and the content of that element.
Defaults to `false` - so if there is a mismatch and this prop is not
defined in your config, the hydration errors will show.
```
admin: {
suppressHydrationWarning: true // will suppress the errors if there is a mismatch
}
```
The logic for creating a timestamp for use in resetPassword was not
correctly returning a valid date.

Continuation of #9846 and partial fix for #9774. When setting
`admin.disableListFilter` retroactively, it remains active within the
list filter controls. Same for when the URL search query contains one of
these fields, except this will actually display the _wrong_ field,
falling back to the _first_ field from the config. The fix is to
properly disable the condition for this field if it's an active filter,
while still preventing it from ever rendering as an option within the
field selector itself.
Partial fix for #9774. When `admin.disableListColumn` is set
retroactively, it continues to appear in column state, but shouldn't.
This was because the table column context was not refreshing after HMR
runs, and would instead hold onto these stale columns until the page
itself refreshes. Similarly, this was also a problem when the user had
saved any of these columns to their list preferences, where those prefs
would take precedence despite these properties being set on the
underlying fields. The fix is to filter these columns from all requests
that send them, and ensure local component state properly refreshes
itself.
### What?
It became possible for fields to reset to a defined `defaultValue` when
bulk editing from the `edit-many` drawer.
### Why?
The form-state of all fields were being considered during a bulk edit -
this also meant using their initial states - this meant any fields with
default values or nested fields (`arrays`) would be overwritten with
their initial states
I.e. empty values or default values.
### How?
Now - we only send through the form data of the fields specifically
being edited in the edit-many drawer and ignore all other fields.
Leaving all other fields stay their current values.

`email`. Can still be overridden by setting a custom `admin.useAsTitle`
property.

Previously, the create-payload-app install would properly update the env
vars in the new created `.env` file but kept outdated env vars in the
`.env.example` file.
I.e
If selecting a `postgres` DB for the blank or website template:
`.env` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
`.env.example` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`mongodb://127.0.0.1/payload-template-blank-3-0`

### What?
* Exposes to `payload` these functions: `sanitizeSelectParam`,
`sanitizePopulateParam`, `senitizeJoinParams`.
* Refactors `sanitizeSelect` and `sanitizePopulate` to
`sanitizeSelectParam` and `sanitizePopulateParam` for clarity.
* Moves them from `@payloadcms/next` to `payload` as they aren't related
to next.
### Why?
To use these functions externally, for example in custom endpoints.
### What?
Previously, `initCollapsed: true` `array` fields would auto collapse
when typing in their respective inputs while in the create new view.
### Why?
This was due to the fact that we were only checking if `preferences`
existed in `form state` to handle the current state of the array row and
then falling back on the `initCollapsed` prop if `preferences` didn't
exist.
This was a problem because during create - `preferences` do not exist
yet. As a result, the state of the array row would keep falling back to
collapsed if `initCollapsed` was set to `true`.
### How?
To fix this, we now check the actual form state first before falling
back to preferences and then falling back to the initCollapsed prop
value.
Fixes#9775
### What?

- Fields are collapsed by default where possible now
- Add rowlabel components for nav items
In addition to requiring fewer files, it supports more nodes. If you
currently initialize a website template and want to use features such as
images or tables, they are not rendered. With this change that happens
automatically.

Similar to #9746. When deploying to Vercel, preview deployment URLs are
dynamically generated. This breaks `admin.preview` within those
deployments because there is no mechanism by which we can detect and set
that URL within Payload. Although Vercel provides various environment
variables at our disposal, they provide no concrete identifier for
exactly which URL is being currently previewed (you can access the same
deployment from a number of different URLs).
The fix is to support relative `admin.preview` URLs, that way Payload
can prepend the application's top-level domain dynamically at
render-time in order to create a fully qualified URL. So when you visit
a Vercel preview deployment, for example, that deployment's unique URL
is used as the preview redirect, instead of the application's
root/production domain. Note: this does not fix multi-tenancy
single-domain setups, as those still require a static top-level domain
for each tenant.
### What?
Fixes issue with stale locale from searchParams
### Why?
Bad use of useEffect/useState inside our useSearchParams provider.
### How?
Memoize the locale instead of relying on the useEffect which was causing
unnecessary renders with stale values.
When deploying to Vercel, preview deployment URLs are dynamically
generated. This breaks Live Preview within those deployments because
there is no mechanism by which we can detect and set that URL within
Payload. Although Vercel provides various environment variables at our
disposal, they provide no concrete identifier for exactly _which_ URL is
being currently previewed (you an access the same deployment from a
number of different URLs).
The fix is to support _relative_ live preview URLs, that way Payload can
prepend the application's top-level domain dynamically at render-time in
order to create a fully qualified URL. So when you visit a Vercel
preview deployment, for example, that deployment's unique URL is used to
load the iframe of the preview window, instead of the application's
root/production domain. Note: this does not fix multi-tenancy
single-domain setups, as those still require a static top-level domain
for each tenant.
### What?
The `<header>` dom node was rendering even if empty for group fields.
Causing extra margin to be added even if no label/description were
provided.
### Why?
If the field had no label, description or errors it would still render.
### How?
Wraps the header node in an additional condition that checks for label,
description or errors before rendering the node.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9606
With Postgres / SQLite, select fields (non `hasMany: true`) weren't
properly handled in the `traverseFields.ts` function for `select` query.
### What
Updates auth.forgotPassword.expiration prop type to include JSDocs
I.e
```
/**
* The number of milliseconds that the forgot password token should be valid for.
* @default 3600000 // 1 hour
*/
```
Adds details about `output: 'standalone'` to Docker deployment section.
This is required in order for Next.js to be dockerized.
```
const nextConfig = {
output: 'standalone',
}
```
### What?
Unable to configure expiration time for the password reset tokens.
### Why?
Prior to this change, the expiration time for password reset tokens were
defaulted.
### How?
Adds new `expiration` prop to `auth.forgotPassword` object which allows
for the option to configure the expiration time of password reset
tokens.
This create a workflow that will trigger upon every release and do the
following:
- Re-generate all template lockfiles as needed (only blank and website
need them for payload cloud)
- Re-generate all postgres migrations for any pg-based template
- Commit changes
- Create PR
Fix broken links.

### What?

### Why?
`user.id` was being used as a dependency is callbacks and when the user
was logged out due to inactivity the above error would throw.
### How?
Added optional chaining to the dependency.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9701
### What?
Previously, when defining `localization.locales` like this:
```ts
localization: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: [{ label: { en: 'ESLocale' }, code: 'es' },{ label: { en: 'ESLocale' }, code: 'en' }],
},
```
The title in "copy to locale" modal was displayed incorrectly
```
Copy to locale: Copying from [object Object] to [object Object]
```
### How?
Uses the `getTranslation` function to handle this behavior properly
Removes maxDepth from link fields which can cause issues sometimes
depending on how deep the reference is
Also removes bottom border on website header.
### What?
Write conflict errors can arise when collections have hooks.
### Why?
The copyDataFromLocale local API calls to update were not passsing req
so changes could be made on different transcations.
### How?
Fixed the error by passing `req` and also introduced some perf
optimizations using `depth` and disabling `joins` since that data isn't
needed for this operation.
Adds configuration options to `auth.disableLocalStrategy` to allow
customization of how payload treats an auth enabled collection.
Two new properties have been added to `disableLocalStrategy`:
- `enableFields` Include auth fields on the collection even though the
local strategy is disabled. Useful when you do not want the database or
types to vary depending on the auth configuration used.
- `optionalPassword`: makes the password field not required
### What?
Migrates the `form-builder` example to payload `3.0`.
`Updates`:
- Now has a next app directly along side payload.
- Removes `form-builder/next-app` & `form-builder/next-pages` example
front-ends and only uses new recommended approach (i.e admin panel &
front-end on the same port - `3000`)
### What?
https://payloadcms.com/docs does not document the `payload.auth`
feature.
### Why?
With custom components, there is no explanation as to how you can get
the current user on the server side. It is also something useful to know
for many other scenarios. A Discord user even mentioned today, that they
spent quite some time, trying to figure out how to get the current user,
while on the server.
While I don't think it's the cleanest "place" to document it, I think
its what makes the most sense, given the current state of the
documentation. I tried to follow the existing format as close as
possible. The comments are longer, but I feel the information is
absolutely necessary to provide.
Confirmed that formatting works as expected and there are no errors
parsing the addition:

Fixes#9631
## Fix default retries
By default, if no `retries` property has been set, jobs / tasks should
not be retried. This was not the case previously, as the `maxRetries`
variable was `undefined`, causing jobs to retry endlessly. This PR sets
them to `0` by default.
Additionally, this fixes some undesirable behavior of the workflow
retries property. Workflow retries now act as **maximum**,
workflow-level retries. Only tasks that do not have a retry property set
will inherit the workflow-level retries.
## Fix error messages
Previously, you were able to encounter error messages with undefined
values like these:

Reason is that it was always using `job.workflowSlug` for the error
messages. However, if you queue a task directly, without a workflow,
`job.workflowSlug` is undefined and `job.taskSlug` should be used
instead.
This PR then gets rid of the second undefined value by ensuring that
`maxRetries´ is never undefined
More commit types will now show in the release notes. The full list of
allowable types are the following and will show in order:
```ts
const commitTypesForChangelog = [
'feat',
'fix',
'perf',
'refactor',
'docs',
'style',
'test',
'templates',
'examples',
'build',
'ci',
'chore',
]
```
What?
Fixes issue when on parallel writes in result you can have 0 latest:
true versions.
Why?
There must be always a version with latest: true
How?
Ensures that we always have a version with latest: true by adding a
filter on createdAt < createdVersion.createdAt.
Instead, this ponentially can lead to a situation where we have 2
versions with latest: true, if they were created at the exact same time,
but this shouldn't happen in a real world scenario and it's much less
problematic than not having a version with latest: true.

As described in #9576, the `SearchParamsProvider` can become stale when
navigating routes and relying on search params during initial render.
This is because this context, along with the `ParamsProvider`, is
duplicative to the internal lifecycle of `useSearchParams` and
`useParams` from `next/navigation`– but always one render behind.
Instead, we need to use the hooks directly from `next/navigation` as
described in the jsdocs. This will also remove any abstraction over top
the web standard for `URLSearchParams`.
For this reason, these providers and their corresponding hooks have been
marked with the deprecated flag and will continue to behave as they do
now, but will be removed in the next major release. This PR replaces all
internal reliance on these hooks with `next/navigation` as suggested,
except for the `useParams` hook, which was never used in the first
place.
```diff
'use client'
- import { useSearchParams } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+ import { useSearchParams } from 'next/navigation'
+ import { parseSearchParams } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export function MyClientComponent() {
- const { searchParams } = useSearchParams()
+ const searchParams = useSearchParams()
+ const parsedParams = parseSearchParams(searchParams)
// ...
}
```
_MyClientComponent.tsx_
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9567. When using the
`AnimateHeight` component on a patched browser such as Webkit,
components with dynamically rendered children are not properly animating
in, such as blocks with rich text. This is because the height of that
content is unable to be calculated before it's rendered, preventing the
component from acquiring a target height to animate toward. This change
was originally introduced in #9456 in effort to remove unnecessary
dependencies.
The fix is to setup a ResizeObserver during animation to watch for
changes to the content's height. This way, as components dynamically
render in based on the "open" state, the hook will simply increment the
target height accordingly.
This PR updates all react and next-related packages to the latest
version in our test directory and in our templates, while still allowing
older versions to be used.
Additionally, this ensures that the "scheduler" package version we
install matches the version installed by react-dom
We should fix all the flaky tests in the future - in the meantime this
PR will reduce collectively wasted engineer hours, as we now don't have
to manually open the awkward GH actions UI and press the retry button -
often multiple times for each PR.
It may not be enough to simply retry the test:int / test:e2e commands to
get the tests not to flake for the next run, but let's see how this goes
Assume you had the following workflow:
```ts
handler: async ({ job, inlineTask, req }) => {
const { customerData } = await inlineTask('Fetch Customer Data', {
task: ({ req }) => {
if (Math.random() < 0.2) {
throw new Error('Failed on purpose')
}
return {
output: {
customerData: 'test',
},
}
},
retries: {
attempts: 40,
},
})
console.log('customer Data', customerData)
await inlineTask('Analyze Segments', {
// Rest of task...
```
It was possible for the following to happen:
Run attempt 1:
- Task "Fetch Customer Data" fails
- Task is added to job log without output data and state "failed"
Run attempt 2:
- Task "Fetch Customer Data" succeeds
- Task is added to job log with correct output data and state
"succeeded"
- Task "Analyze Segments" fails
- Task is added to job log without output data and state "failed"
Run attempt 3:
- Task "Fetch Customer Data" has already run successfully => restore
from DB
- Task "Analyze Segments" fails because input data is undefined.
The restoration of the already-succeeded "Fetch Customer Data" task did
not fetch and restore the correct output data, as it was taking the
output data from the previously failed task that did not save any, even
though it should have been taking and restoring the output data of the
last-run, successful task run.
This PR fixed that
### What?
Adds Serbian `rs` and `rs-Latin` to `importDateFNSLocale` as well as
changes their `dateFNSKey` in the language definition to the appropriate
key instead of `en-US`
### Why?
To support Serbian language with appropriately localized dates.
### How?
Minor changes in translations package.
Fixes: #9610.
### What?
Currently some links inside the main nav are still focusable with a
keyboard when the main nav is closed.
### Why?
This leads to the active keyboard focus getting lost until it eventually
finds its way to the hamburger menu button. It can also lead to links
that are not currently visible being selected accidentally.
### How?
When the [inert
attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/inert)
is set to `true`, we can prevent focus on any child elements
automatically. We simply toggle the attribute on or off based on whether
the nav is open or closed.
The inert attribute has [great
compatibility](https://caniuse.com/mdn-html_global_attributes_inert)
with modern browsers these days, making it a solid choice to resolve
this issue.
### Recordings
#### Before
You can see down the bottom left of the screen that links available in
the main nav are still focusable even when the main nav is closed.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e16d5336-7d2b-42f1-886b-cfa3ed82dbb1
#### After
You can see that focus is immediately moved to the hamburger menu when
the main nav is closed.

Fixes#5026. When using client-side Live Preview, switching locale would
not populate relationships in that locale, and would use the default
locale instead. This was because locale was simply not being handled.
Now, we pass the locale through the event, and use it to make localized
queries when populating those relationships.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9612
Previously, the plugin search with different collections but the same
IDs could delete a wrong search document on synchronization, because we
queried the search document only by `doc.value`. Instead, we should also
query by `doc.relationTo`.
When creating custom translations and merging the custom translation
keys with the default translation keys, and then pass it to the generic
TFunction type, Typescript complains that the function does not satisfy
the LabelFunction type in a label field.
The reason for this is that the LabelFunction type is not generic, and
it's always using the default TFunction which itself uses the
DefaultTranslationKey if no type is passed to it.
This is solved by making the LabelFunction generic and forward the
TTranslationKeys to the TFunction type.
Following this documentation:
https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/i18n#typescript
Example:

Updates the "More details" link URLs in the generateEmailHTML and
generateEmailSubject rows to link to the correct element.
The links current use camelcase but the corresponding element IDs are
lowercase.
See this page: https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/email
### What?
The examples in nestedDocs and formBuilder plugins were referencing the
plugins incorrectly.
### Why?
To prevent confusion for readers.
### How?
Changes to `docs/plugins/form-builder.mdx` and
`docs/plugins/nested-docs.mdx`.
We were sending unrendered `PayloadComponent`s to the client, which is a
remnant of old betas where those were actually rendered.
There is no point sending them to the client as they are useless there
and cannot be rendered without the server-only importMap. Additionally,
this could have potentially caused server-only modules to be sent to the
client (e.g. if serverProps was used), which would have lead to a
webpack error.
The types were also incorrect, as admin.dependencies on the ClientConfig
did not contain the React nodes.
### What?
When the document is saved the formState was not being reset from the
server.
### Why?
getFormState was not being called onSuccess of the form submission
### How?
The `Form` onSuccess function now allows for an optional return type of
`FormState` if the functions returns formState then we check to see if
that differs from the current formState on the client. If it does then
we dispatch the `REPLACE_STATE` action with the newState.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9423
Closes#8653.
Originally this PR was for making the `IndentFeature` opt-in instead of
opt-out, which would have been a breaking change. After some discussion
it was determined it would be better if we could keep the
`IndentFeature` by default and instead come up with a custom escape key
solution to prevent keyboard users from becoming trapped in the editor.
These changes are my interpretation of how we can solve this problem in
a way that feels natural for a keyboard user. When a keyboard user
becomes trapped, the usual approach is to press the escape key (e.g.
modals) to be able to leave the current context and continue navigating.
These changes allow that to happen while minimising the cognitive load
by not needing to remember whether the `IndentFeature` is toggled on or
off.
I've also ensured the `IndentFeature` can actually be turned off if
consciously removed from the lexical editor features (previously it was
still enabled even if it was removed).
Ideally this should be handled on the lexical side in the
`TabIndentationPlugin` itself (I will begin to look into the feasibility
of this), but for now this should be suitable to ensure the experience
for keyboard users isn't completely blocked (there are a number of other
improvements that could be made but I will create more specific issues
for those).
Open to discussion and amendments. Once we're aligned on the approach
I'm happy to implement tests as needed.

Closes#9132. When query params are present in the URL, such as after
searching or filtering in the list view, they are not being retained
after navigating back to that view via `history.back()` (i.e. the back
button). This makes it difficult to quickly navigate in and out of
documents from the list view when an underlying search exists. This was
because the `SearchParamsProvider` is stale when the new view renders,
which then replaces the URL with these stale params. The fix here is to
_not_ use the `SearchParamsProvider` at all, and instead use
`next/navigation` directly. Ultimately, this provider should likely be
marked deprecated and then removed in the next major release for this
very reason.
.tsx files were introduced into the plugin-search package, but an
appropriate `copyfiles` script was not introduced to get these files
into the dist output.
This was causing a `Module not found: Can't resolve './index.scss'`
error on build.

### What?
Extracted `hasText` helper method in `richTextValidateHOC`
### Why?
The new exported `hasText` helper method can now also be used during
front-end serialization - for example, to check whether a caption
element should be rendered when text is optional and therefore possibly
empty (which would allow us to prevent rendering an empty caption
element).
Fixes#8811
Before this PR, even if you did not include text formatting features
(such as BoldFeature, ItalicFeature, etc), it was possible to apply that
formatting by (a) pasting content from the clipboard and (b) using
keyboard shortcuts.
This PR fixes that by requiring the formatting features to be registered
so that they can be inserted in the editor.
When using the `admin.hidden: true` property on a collection, it
rightfully removes all navigation and routing for that particular
collection. However, this also affects the expected behavior of hidden
entities when they are rendered within a drawer, such as the document
drawer or list drawer. For example, when creating a new _admin.hidden_
document through the relationship or join field, the drawer should still
render the view, despite the underlying route for that view being
disabled. This change was a result of the introduction of on-demand
server components in #8364, where we now make a server roundtrip to
render the view in its entirety, which include the logic that redirects
these hidden entities.
Now, we pass a new `overrideEntityVisibility` argument through the
server function that, when true, skips this step. This way documents can
continue to respect `admin.hidden` while also having the ability to
override on a case-by-case basis throughout the UI.
### What?
This PR aims to add reindexing capabilities to `plugin-search` to allow
users to reindex entire searchable collections on demand.
### Why?
As it stands, end users must either perform document reindexing manually
one-by-one or via bulk operations. Both of these approaches are
undesirable because they result in new versions being published on
existing documents. Consider the case when `plugin-search` is only added
_after_ the project has started and documents have been added to
existing collections. It would be nice if users could simply click a
button, choose the searchable collections to reindex, and have the
custom endpoint handle the rest.
### How?
This PR adds on to the existing plugin configuration, creating a custom
endpoint and a custom `beforeListTable` component in the form of a popup
button. Upon clicking the button, a dropdown/popup is opened with
options to select which collection to reindex, as well as a useful `All
Collections` option to run reindexing on all configured search
collections. It also adds a `reindexBatchSize` option in the config to
allow users to specify in what quantity to batch documents to sync with
search.
Big shoutout to @paulpopus & @r1tsuu for the triple-A level support on
this one!

Notes:
- Traditionally these kinds of long-running tasks would be better suited
for a job. However, given how many users enjoy deploying to serverless
environments, it would be problematic to offer this feature exclusive to
jobs queues. I thought a significant amount about this and decided it
would be best to ship the feature as-is with the intention of creating
an opt-in method to use job queues in the future if/when this gets
merged.
- In my testing, the collection description somehow started to appear in
the document views after the on-demand RSC merge. I haven't reproduced
this, but this PR has an example of that problem. Super strange.

### What?
Adds ability to copy data from one locale to another at a document
level.
### How?
For any localized collection, you will find a new option in the document
controls called `Copy to Locale`.
This option will open a drawer, from here you can select your origin and
destination locales.
If data already exists in the destination locale, you can choose to:
1. Overwrite this data (this will copy any empty fields in your origin
locale)
2. Not overwrite existing data (this will only copy data into empty
fields in the destination locale)

In an effort to keep the Examples Directory as easy to navigate as
possible, and to keep the Payload Monorepo only as verbose as it needs
to be, we need to remove all alternatives from the Examples Directory.
This includes setups that interact with Payload from a standalone
server, keeping only the Payload recommended "combined" Next.js +
Payload setups.
### What?
Migrates the `live-preview` example to payload `3.0`.
`Updates`:
- `live-preview/payload` now has a next app directly along side payload.
- Removes `live-preview/next-app` & `live-preview/next-pages` example
front-ends and only uses new recommended approach (i.e admin panel &
front-end on the same port - `3000`)
If you had a lot of fields and collections, createClientConfig would be
extremely slow, as it was copying a lot of memory. In my test config
with a lot of fields and collections, it took 4 seconds(!!).
And not only that, it also ran between every single page navigation.
This PR significantly speeds up the createClientConfig function. In my
test config, its execution speed went from 4 seconds to 50 ms.
Additionally, createClientConfig is now properly cached in both dev &
prod. It no longer runs between every single page navigation. Even if
you trigger a full page reload, createClientConfig will be cached and
not run again. Despite that, HMR remains fully-functional.
This will make payload feel noticeably faster for large configs -
especially if it contains a lot of richtext fields, as it was previously
deep-copying the relatively large richText editor configs over and over
again.
## Before - 40 sec navigation speed
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fe6b707a-459b-44c6-982a-b277f6cbb73f
## After - 1 sec navigation speed
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/384fba63-dc32-4396-b3c2-0353fcac6639
## Todo
- [x] Implement ClientSchemaMap and cache it, to remove
createClientField call in our form state endpoint
- [x] Enable schemaMap caching for dev
- [x] Cache lexical clientField generation, or add it to the parent
clientConfig
## Lexical changes
Red: old / removed
Green: new

### Speed up version queries
This PR comes with performance optimizations for fetching versions
before a document is loaded. Not only does it use the new select API to
limit the fields it queries, it also completely skips a database query
if the current document is published.
### Speed up lexical init
Removes a bunch of unnecessary deep copying of lexical objects which
caused higher memory usage and slower load times. Additionally, the
lexical default config sanitization now happens less often.
### What?
When you prevent users from authenticating with their email, we should
not enforce uniqueness on the email field.
### Why?
We never set the unique property to false.
### How?
Set the unique property to false if `loginWithUsername.allowEmailLogin`
is `false`.
The version diff view at
`/admin/collections/:collection/:id/versions/:version` was not properly
displaying diffs for iterable fields, such as blocks. There were two
main things wrong here:
1. Fields not properly inheriting parent permissions based on the new
sanitized permissions pattern in #7335
1. The diff components were expecting `permissions` but receiving
`fieldPermissions`. This was not picked up by TS because of our use of
dynamic keys when choosing which component to render for that particular
field. We should change this in the future to use a switch case that
explicitly renders each diff component. This way props are strictly
typed.
In effort to keep the Examples Directory as easy to navigate as
possible, and to keep the Payload Monorepo only as verbose as it needs
to be, we need to remove all alternatives from the Examples Directory.
This includes setups that interact with Payload from a standalone
server, keeping only the Payload recommended "combined" Next.js +
Payload setups. This will also be applied to all other examples that use
this setup, i.e. draft preview, live preview, etc.
### What?
Previously, `payload.findByID` with `overrideAccess: false` and this
collection config
```ts
{
slug: 'fields-and-top-access',
access: {
read: () => ({
secret: {
equals: '12345',
},
}),
},
fields: [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'secret',
access: { read: () => false },
},
],
},
```
Led to the `The following path cannot be queried: secret` error because
`where` input to `validateQueryPaths` also includes the result from
access control, which shouldn't be.
This works when using `payload.find`.
The same applies to find with drafts / joins `where`. We need to
validate only user `where` input, not access control that we defined in
our config.
Also, this exact logic seems be used in `find` without drafts - we don't
use `fullWhere` here but `where`, that's why this error isn't being
thrown with `find` but only `findByID`.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9210
### What?
Plugin-seo fields were not set to disabled when a user did not have
permissions.
### Why?
The `readOnly` property was not being used.
### How?
Uses the `readOnly` property to disable buttons and set inputs to
readOnly.
### What?
Fixes a link to the `storage-uploadthing` adapter in Github.
### Why?
To link readers to the correct package location.
### How?
Change to `docs/upload/storage-adapters.mdx`.
Credit to rik in Discord for the catch.
Deprecates `react-animate-height` in favor of native CSS, specifically
the `interpolate-size: allow-keywords;` property which can be used to
animate to `height: auto`—the primary reason this package exists. This
is one less dependency in our `node_modules`. Tried to replicate the
current DOM structure, class names, and API of `react-animate-height`
for best compatibility.
Note that this CSS property is experimental BUT this PR includes a patch
for browsers without native support. Once full support is reached, the
patch can be safely removed.
### What?
Adds custom anchor tags to docs where duplicate headings exist.
### Why?
Anchor links would not correctly navigate to the proper point on the
page if there were multiple headings with the same string.
### How?
The website now supports adding custom `#anchor` to a heading in
markdown that will attach to the headings and table of content list
items. This PR adds custom anchors to the docs that have duplicate
headings.
**Example:**
```md
/docs/upload/storage-adapters.mdx
### Usage#vercel-blob-installation
```
Generates the path:
`/docs/upload/storage-adapters#vercel-blob-installation`
Ensures `sanitizeRelationshipIDs` works properly in any case
Updates predefinedMigration to work with new globals
Skips ObjectID creation errors to not fail with outdated data to the
schema.

The [previous fix](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8735)
worked but was a breaking change because it set a `z-index` in the
`.react-select` wrapper instead of the `.rs__menu`, creating a new
stacking-context, therefore making any existing customizations to the
menu's `z-index` not work. This was a way to fix a regression introduced
by the css-layers, in which Payload's custom `z-index: 4` no longer took
precedence over react-select's default `z-index: 1`.
With this PR we remove the default `z-index: 1` applied by react-select,
so that the `z-index: 4` set in the "payload-default" css layer can take
effect. An alternative to this fix would be to use `z-index: 4
!important`, but this has the advantage of allowing the `z-index` to be
easily customized by the consumers of the CMS, as with all the other
styles.
### Screenshots

### What?
This log was appearing when the DatePicker loaded without a registered
locale:
```
A locale object was not found for the provided string ["enUS"].
```
Also fixes css misalignment of icons inside date picker field
### Why?
If i`18n.dateFNS` had not loaded, we were registering the locale with an
undefined value.
### How?
Only register the locale for react-datepicker if i18n.dateFNS is
present.
List preferences were improperly saving their own records onto
themselves when building table state through the server function. This
was happening because the entire preference document was being spread
onto the new preferences, as opposed to just the value itself:
```diff
const mergedPrefs = {
- ...(preferencesResult || {}),
+ ...(preferencesResult?.value || {}),
columns,
}
```
This PR also swaps `dequal` out for `dequal/lite`.
### What?
We sorted migrations by `-name` in `getMigrations` as by assumption from
generated file names, however, it may be not true as the improved (+
unflaked, previously it failed sometimes) test for `migrate:down` can
reproduce. As in result, `migrateDown` / `migrateRefresh` may execute in
order different from `migrate`.
Unflakes the 'should commit multiple operations async' test.
We shouldn't pass the same `req` that doesn't contain a transaction to
different operations that execute in parallel (via `Promise.all`)
without either creating a transaction before or using
`isolateObjectProperty(req, 'transactionID')`. It leads to a race
condition because operation can commit a wrong transaction, different
from inited
### What?
Previously, using Postgres, select fields with `hasMany: true` weren't
clearable.
Meaning, you couldn't pass an empty array:
```ts
const updatedDoc = await payload.update({
id,
collection: 'select-fields',
data: {
selectHasMany: [],
},
})
```
### Why?
To achieve the same behavior with MongoDB.
### How?
Modifies logic in `packages/drizzle/src/upsertRow/index.ts` to include
empty arrays.
- Update lock files for blank, website
- Delete unneeded lock files
- Adds git hook to ensure no new lockfiles are added for _other than_
blank and website.
- Uses `pagination: false` where we don't need `totalDocs`.
- in `preview/route.ts` uses `depth: 0`, select of only ID to improve
performance
- in `search` uses `select` to select only needed properties
- adds type safety best practices to collection configs with
`defaultPopulate`
- uses `payload.count` to resolve SSG `pageNumber`s
Removes unnecessary `deepCopyObject(docPermissions)` in the Version View
which slows down loading speed.
The comment seems to be resolved, I'm not getting this error and here
for example in the same case
3c0e832a9a/packages/next/src/views/Document/index.tsx (L327)
we don't do deep copying.
### What?
The "noResults" translation key, for Russian, which is displayed when
searching a collection list and receiving no results.

### Why?
Unlike English, Slavic languages like Russian have the concept of
genders and depending on the ending of a particular word, the endings of
adjectives can be different, to correspond with those genders. The
current version only works with feminine words, directly translating to
"No {{label}} found. Either {{label}} doesn't exist yet, or none of them
match the filters you specified above."
The new version translates to "Nothing found. {{label}} may not exist
yet or doesn't match the specified filters.", which is a more loose
translation, but holds the same meaning, while being grammatically
correct in all scenarios, regardless of the gender.
### What?
This PR fixes a variety of links around the docs.
### Why?
To link readers to the correct location in the docs
### How?
Changes and fixes to a number of doc links.
TS 5.7 added support for ES2024. By keeping target: “esnext”, we would
have accidentally set our minimum supported ES version to ES2024.
This sets it to ES2022, which is the version supported by Node 18
When using Client-side Live Preview, array fields are unable to clear
all their rows. This is because `reduceFieldsToValues` sets the array's
value as 0 within form-state when no rows exist, as opposed to an empty
array as one might expect. For now, we can simply handle this data shape
within Live Preview's merge logic. In the future we may want to take to
consider changing the behavior of empty arrays within form-state itself.
1. Adds flag `--skip-empty` to `migrate:create` to bypass the empty
migration file prompt.
- Blank migration file will not be created if this flag is passed.
3. Adds flag `--force-accept-warning` to `migrate:fresh` to bypass the
drop database prompt
Now, custom Lexical block & inline block components are re-rendered if
the fields drawer is saved. This ensures that RSCs receive the updated
values, without having to resort to a client component that utilizes the
`useForm` hook.
Additionally, this PRs fixes the lexical selection jumping around after
opening a Block or InlineBlock drawer and clicking inside of it.
### What?
`payload.collections` was improperly typed.
This doesn't seem to work: (the type is `{}`)
```
collections: {
[slug: CollectionSlug]: Collection
} = {}
```
<img width="794" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7daceab9-8f43-433b-9201-1bf8c48fb8ca">
However, this does:
```ts
collections: Record<CollectionSlug, Collection> = {}
```
<img width="540" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e37d595d-f5b4-4b02-b190-bb5d4063787d">
Additionally, the same fix applied to `Permissions`,
`PolymorphicUploadField['admin']['sortOptions']`,
`PolymorphicRelationshipField['admin']['sortOptions']`
When defining custom providers as server components, they currently do
not receive any of the server props that custom components expect to
receive, like `payload`, `i18n`, `user`, and so on.
### What?
Although the following examples:
- `custom-components`
- `email`
- `multi-tenant`
were recently migrated to 3.0 - they were still using the latest `beta`
version instead of latest payload (i.e `3.0`)
- Removes mention of custom providers needing to be client components
- Documents custom field `Filter` components
- Adjusts language and other misc. grammar and spelling
### What?
Non-standard ids caused an issue when finding the document on the
server.
This is an odd regression, in 2.0 we were fetching the document on the
client so the request would handle decoding the url. Now we are fetching
the document on the server and need to do this manually when reading id
from route params.
### Why?
The slug pulled out of the url for an id of `id 1` would equate to
`id%201` which would fail in the `payload.find` call since there is not
an id stored as `id%201` but instead `id 1`.
### How?
Wherever we are calling payload.find in the views and querying by `id`
it gets ran through a helper function that decodes it properly.
Fixes#9373
Added patch to `withPayload` for hiding turbopack external deps warnings
from this PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9147 didn't work
on `next@15.0.3`, now it works on both `15.0.0` and `15.0.3`.
### What?
`viewActions` are not easily accessible in custom views.
### Why?
We extract view actions when we call `getViewFromConfig`, but never pass
them to the custom views.
### How?
Properly types return type for serverProps inside `getViewFromConfig`
and adds viewActions to serverProps so they are spread into props when
we build the custom view components.
Now custom server views will get the viewActions as a prop.
Fixes#9338
Fixes errors when having joins with versions +drafts on `hasMany: true`
relationships.
Removes `joinQuery` overhead if we don't need it for the current
operation. Right now, in all adapters we support joins only for `find`,
`findOne`, and `queryDrafts`.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9363
This fixes the following issues that caused fields to be either hidden,
or incorrectly set to readOnly in certain configurations:
- In some cases, permissions were sanitized incorrectly. This PR
rewrites the sanitizePermissions function and adds new unit tests
- after a document save, the client was receiving unsanitized
permissions. Moving the sanitization logic to the endpoint fixes this
- Various incorrect handling of permissions in our form state endpoints
/ RenderFields
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9378
We’ve found out that @lexical/markdown imports cannot be reliably
dynamically imported by Node.js for an unknown reason. Frequently,
Node.js simply exits before the dynamic import is done.
We’re suspecting the reason for this to be its dependency on
@lexical/code that installs prism.
This will not only (hopefully) fix the import issue, but also reduce the
bundle size & compilation speed of richtext-lexical.
Fixes#9351. When using Postgres, doc ids were being treated as a string
as opposed to a number within the admin panel. This led to issues for
anything relying on the `docID` from context, such as the join field not
properly populating initial data when creating new documents, etc.
### What?
Fixes links for custom components in a few places in admin docs.
### Why?
To link users to the correct location in the docs.
### How?
Changes to `docs/admin/components.mdx` and
`docs/admin/customizing-css.mdx`
Closes#9242 and #9365. Autosave-enabled documents rendered within a
drawer were not being properly handled. This was causing multiple draft
documents to be created upon opening the drawer, as well as an empty
document returned from the server function, etc.
### What?
Unable to add collections to the config dynamically if they reference
their own collection in a relationship field.
This was discovered while working on the folder view feature which
dynamically adds collections to your config if it is enabled per
collection.
### Why?
When `sanitizeCollection` runs, it takes the current config. If you are
sanitizing a collection before adding it to the config, that collection
cannot have any self referencing relationship fields on it otherwise it
fails the validRelationships check.
### How?
Using a reducer we now initialize the validRelationships variable with
the incoming collection slug.
### What?
When a document is saved the data from useDocumentInfo was stale.
### Why?
Previously we would refresh the entire document by calling the
form-state endpoint, we no longer do that.
### How?
Adds a new variable accessible from useDocumentInfo,
`savedDocumentData`, that is updated when the document is successfully
saved and defaults to initialData.
Fixes#9337. The version view was not able to render its diff because of
an invalid permissions lookup. This was a result of a change to how
access results are returned from the API, which are now sanitized:

Fixes#9264. When externally updating array or block rows through the
`addFieldRow` or `replaceFieldRow` methods, nested rich text fields
along with any custom components within them are never rendered. This is
because unless the form is explicitly set to modified, as the default
array and blocks fields currently do, the newly generated form-state
will skip the rendering step. Now, the underlying callbacks themselves
automatically set the form to modified to trigger rendering.
### What?
Could not finalize selection of `hasMany` uploads inside of the drawer.
### Why?
The Select component was not being rendered in the beforeActions prop of
the ListControls when row selections was enabled.
### How?
Renders the Select component when row selections are enabled and
onBulkSelect is present.
The biggest difference comes from calling `RenderServerComponent` as a
function, instead of rendering it by using `<RenderServerComponent`.
This gets rid of wasteful blocks of codes sent to the client that look
like this:

HTML size comparison:
## Admin test suite

The problem was that the uploads test suite was trying to log in to
payload before it was even initialized.
In the rare event where payload started up before the uploads test suite
was trying to log in, our tests passed.
### What?
In the WhereBuilder Condition DefaultFilter component, there is a switch
statement that contains components to return based on the built filter
in the admin ui. Having a filter built out then navigating to another
collection list view causes an error to occur due to InternalField being
undefined but the DefaultFilter tries to access the field on it.
### Why?
To fix unexpected `cannot access property field of undefined` errors.
### How?
Adding a conditional chaining operator.
Odd thing here is that the `Text` component where this error originates
from doesn't actually make use of the passed `InternalField`. Might be
worth it to take a closer look at it.
Fixes#9179
Removes examples that are now duplicative or unnecessary due to new
features in 3.0:
### Custom server
This one can be removed in favor of [Next.js
documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/configuring/custom-server)
### Hierarchy
The new `join` field can solve for many of the use cases for the
`hierarchy` example. Bi-directional relationships with the `join` field
should be preferred here.
### Nested Docs, Redirects
Our website template showcases how to use the `nested-docs` and
`redirects` plugins in-depth, with real-world examples.
### Virtual Fields
Virtual fields have gotten significantly easier and can now be defined
by specifying `virtual: true`. Not a big need for a full example any
longer.

Fixes types for workflows / jobs `input` and `output` when using
`strict: true` or `strictNullChecks: true` by ensuring that all
properties in generates types are requried
The Edit and Live Preview views were duplicately making the same Local
API requests for document data. This is because while the top-level
document view handler makes these requests _before_ rendering the Live
Preview view, it wasn't passing it's data through as props. This has
also led to inconsistencies in the options being passed through the
requests themselves, such as `locale`, `user`, and `overrideAccess:
false`. Everything is now standardized as expected through the existing
`getDocumentData` utility.
If you start a fresh dev server and open payload, the nav will initially
show as closed and then jump to its open state. This is because no
preferences are set, so the server tells the client to initially keep it
closed, despite the default nav state being _open_.
### What?
Custom providers could not be resolved because payload was not
initialized in the Root layout with the importMap passed in from props.
### How?
Pass importMap from props into the getPayload function in the Root
layout.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9288
### What?
When a block had a subfield named `blocks`, sanitization would throw an
error.
### Why?
An incorrect check for the key of `"fields"` would then attempt to pass
`data.blocks[key].fields` aka `data.blocks.fields.fields` to the next
call of `areAllPermissionsTrue` which would be undefined. Instead if the
key is `fields` it should pass `data.blocks[key]`.
### How?
Remove the second `.fields` property accessor.
Optimizes initial page responses by removing unnecessary inline field
styles that were being sent through the HTML response. The Client Config
contains a large number of duplicates of the string:
`"style\":{\"flex\":\"1 1 auto\"}`, one for every single field within
the entirely of the config. This leads to hundreds or potentially
thousands of instances of this same string, depending on the number of
fields within the config itself. This is regardless of custom field
widths being defined. Instead, we can do this entirely client-side,
preventing this string from ever being transmitted over the network in
the first place.
## Breaking Changes
This only effects those who are importing Payload's field components
into your own Custom Components or front-end application. The `width`
prop no longer exists. It has been consolidated into the existing
`style` prop. To migrate, simply move this prop as follows:
```diff
import { TextInput } from '@payloadcms/ui
export const MyCustomComponent = () => {
return (
<TextInput
- width="60%"
style={{
+ width: "60%,
}}
/>
)
}
```
### What?
Fixes potential errors when passed to `sanitizeRelationships` `ref`
could potentially be a non object (for example `string`) because of
having in the database data in old structure.
```
"Cannot create property 'a' on string 'B'",
```
### Why?
Necessary particularly for the migration script, as it migrates
everything including versions that can have outdated data.
### How?
Ensures passed `ref` is an `object`.
### What?
When a script attempts to load payload using `getPayload()`, it will end
with: `Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:3000` etc...
### Why?
Even though there is a try/catch, it still errors because WebSocket
connection failures happen asynchronously after the ws object is
instantiated.
### How?
Added the error handling function cached.ws.onerror to prevent exit.
Custom field description functions were being duplicately called in both
the Client Config and form state. Static field descriptions were also
being rendered in form state unnecessarily. Now, field description
functions are only executed once within form state, and static
descriptions are deferred to the client for rendering.
Supports bi-directional import/export between MDX <=> Lexical. JSX will
be mapped to lexical blocks back and forth.
This will allow editing our mdx docs in payload while keeping mdx as the
source of truth

### What?
Fixes the issue when visiting the create view with the Join Field and
using postgres adapter
```
invalid input syntax for type integer: "NaN"
```
This happens because we don't have an ID yet and we send to the
database:
`WHERE id = NaN`
### How?
Avoids calling `getTableState` inside of `RelationshipTable` if there's
no ID yet, as it will always lead to the same empty result. While we
_could_ avoid error directly in the database adapter, I don't think we
should do that render request
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9193
### What?
Previously, this code led to a validation error because `movie` is an
object and you needed to use `movie.id` instead.
```ts
const movie = await payload.create({ collection: 'movies', data: {} })
const result = await payload.create({
collection: 'object-writes',
data: {
many: [movie],
manyPoly: [{ relationTo: 'movies', value: movie }],
one: movie,
onePoly: {
relationTo: 'movies',
value: movie,
},
},
})
```
While it's simple to modify this example, it's more painful when you
have a data with `depth` > 0 and then you want to update that document.
### Why?
Better DX as less checks needed, and TypeScript says that we can pass an
object.
### How?
Sanitizes the field value in the root `beforeValidate` hook
The field RSC now provides an initial state for all lexical blocks. This
completely obliterates any flashes and lexical block loading states when
loading or saving a document.
Previously, when a document is loaded or saved, every lexical block was
sending a network request in order to fetch their form state. Now, this
is batched and handled in the lexical server component. All lexical
block form states are sent to the client together with the parent
lexical field, and are thus available immediately.
We also do the same with block collapsed preferences. Thus, there are no
loading states or layout shifts/flashes of blocks anymore.
Additionally, when saving a document while your cursor is inside a
lexical field, the cursor position is preserved. Previously, a document
save would kick your cursor out of the lexical field.
## Look at how nice this is:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/21d736d4-8f80-4df0-a782-7509edd993da
**BREAKING:**
This removes the `feature.hooks.load` and `feature.hooks.save`
interfaces from custom lexical features, as they weren't used internally
and added unnecessary, additional overhead.
If you have custom features that use those, you can migrate to using
normal payload hooks that run on the server instead of the client.
Documents more breaking changes within the migration guide, improves
overview, reorganizes everything, adds section headings, table of
contents, and more.
With this PR, you can now customize the way that `blocks` and
`inlineBlocks` are rendered within Lexical's `BlocksFeature` by passing
your own React components.
This is super helpful when you need to create "previews" or more
accurate UI for your Lexical blocks.
For example, let's say you have a `gallery` block where your admins
select a bunch of images. By default, Lexical would just render a
collapsible with your block's fields in it. But now you can customize
the `admin.components.Block` property on your `block` config by passing
it a custom React component for us to render instead.
So using that, with this `gallery` example, you could make a dynamic
gallery React component that shows the images to your editors - and then
render our built-in `BlockEditButton` to allow your editors to manage
your gallery in a drawer.
Here is an example where the BlockEditButton is added to the default
Block Collapsible/Header:

Deprecates `getPayloadHMR` and simplifies this pattern into a single
`import { getPayload } from 'payload'`.
We will still retain the exported `getPayloadHMR` but it now will throw
a deprecation warning with instructions for how to migrate.
Custom `account` and `dashboard` views now defined as lowercase in the
config. This is to maintain consistency with all other custom views
throughout the config. The underlying reason for this change is that
previously, you could define React Components directly on these
properties. Now, these are strictly _view configuration objects_, and
the property names have been adjusted in order to semantically reflect
that. These two views in particular, however, were never updated
accordingly.
## Breaking Changes
```diff
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
components: {
// ...
views: {
// ...
- Account: ...
- Dashboard: ...
+ account: ...
+ dashboard: ...
},
},
},
})
```
Fixes#9246. Custom default root views (account and dashboard) were not
being properly thread to the custom component renderer. Custom account
views were also improperly _stacking_ instead of _replacing_ the default
view.
Tests for this are incoming. To properly test this we need to wrap our
default root views with custom ones, so that out existing `admin` test
suite can continue to work alongside tests specifically for this issue.
This PR fixes cases where you may have a field called `id` within a
group or a named tab, which would have incorrectly been treated as a
custom ID field for the collection.
However, custom IDs need to be defined at the root level - and now
Payload only respects custom IDs defined at the root level.
Protects the `/api/access` endpoint behind authentication and sanitizes
the result, making it more secure and significantly smaller. To do this:
1. The `permission` keyword is completely omitted from the result
2. Only _truthy_ access results are returned
3. All nested permissions are consolidated when possible

```
The collection list columns are stored as user preferences to the
payload-preferences collection. Normally one user should never have
duplicate documents with the same key. This is controlled by using an
upsert normally. The collection list does not have a good way to call
upsert and was creating preferences documents every time. This change
makes it so that existing preferences are updated rather than created
with each column change.
Changes:
- Migrates `email` example project to `3.0` from `2.0`
- Replaces `inline-css` dependency with `juice` package instead.
- Replaces `Handlebars` dependency with `ejs` package instead.
Reason for replacing packages:
- Both `inline-css` & `Handlebars` had issues with Nextjs and its
Webpack bundling i.e does not support `require.extensions`.
- `ejs` & `juice` do not rely on `require.extensions`.
### What?
Upgrades mongoose from 6 to latest `v8.8.1`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9171
### Why?
Compatibilty with Mongodb Atlas
### How?
- Updates deps
- Changed ObjectId from bson-objectid to use `new Type.ObjectId` from
mongoose for compatibility (only inside of db-mongodb)
- Internal type adjustments
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/9088
BREAKING CHANGES:
All projects with existing data having versions enabled, or relationship or upload fields will want to create the predefined migration that converts all strings to ObjectIDs where needed. This can be created using `payload migrate:create --file @payloadcms/mongodb/relationships-v2-v3`.
For projects making use of the exposed Models from mongoose, review the
upgrade guides from [v6 to
v7](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/7.x/docs/migrating_to_7.html) and [v7 to
v8](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/migrating_to_8.html) and make
adjustments as needed.

The mongodb adapter `updateOne` method accepts an `options` argument
that allows query options to be passed to mongoose. This parameter was
added in https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8397 to support the
`upsert` operation.
This `options` parameter can also be useful when using the database
adaptor directly without going through the local api. It is true that
the Mongoose models could be used directly in such situations, but the
adapter methods include a lot of useful functionality, like for instance
the sanitization of document and relationship ids, so it is desirable to
be able to use the adapter functions while still being able to provide
mongoose query options (e.g. `{timestamps: false}`).
This PR adds the same options parameter to the other update methods of
the mongodb adapter.
### What?
Aligns types for HiddenField and the WatchCondition component with the
rest of the fields. Since path is required when rendering a Field
component, there is no need to keep it optional in the WatchCondition
component.
### Why?
Hidden fields were requiring the `field` property to be passed, but the
only reason it needed it was to allow the path to fallback to name if
path was not passed. But path is required so there is no need for this
anymore.
This makes using the HiddenField simpler now.
### How?
Adjusts type on the HiddenField and the WatchCondition component.
Similar to https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9195 but
specifically removing `i18n.supportedLanguages` from the client config.
This is a potentially large object that does not need to be sent through
the network when making RSC requests.
### What?
Changes the order of the `DefaultCellComponentProps` generic type,
allowing us to infer the type of cellData when a ClientField type is
passed as the first generic argument. You can override the cellData type
by passing the second generic.
Previously:
```ts
type DefaultCellComponentProps<TCellData = any, TField extends ClientField = ClientField>
```
New:
```ts
type DefaultCellComponentProps<TField extends ClientField = ClientField, TCellData = undefined>
```
### Why?
Changing the ClientField type to be the first argument allows us to
infer the cellData value type based on the type of field.
I could have kept the same signature but the usage would look like:
```ts
// Not very DX friendly
const MyCellComponent<DefaultCellComponentProps<,ClientField>> = () => null
```
### How?
The changes made
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/compare/chore/beta/simplify-DefaultCellComponentProps?expand=1#diff-24f3c92e546c2be3fed0bab305236bba83001309a7239c20a3e3dbd6f5f71dc6R29-R73)
allow this. You can override the type by passing in the second argument
to the generic.
### What?
Exposes DefaultServerCellComponentProps type for custom server cell
components.
### Why?
So users can type their custom server cell components properly.
Adds documentation for `within` and `intersects` operators.
#### Querying - within
In order to do query based on whether points are within a specific area
defined in GeoJSON, you can use the `within` operator.
Example:
```ts
const polygon: Point[] = [
[9.0, 19.0], // bottom-left
[9.0, 21.0], // top-left
[11.0, 21.0], // top-right
[11.0, 19.0], // bottom-right
[9.0, 19.0], // back to starting point to close the polygon
]
payload.find({
collection: "points",
where: {
point: {
within: {
type: 'Polygon',
coordinates: [polygon],
},
},
},
})
```
#### Querying - intersects
In order to do query based on whether points intersect a specific area
defined in GeoJSON, you can use the `intersects` operator.
Example:
```ts
const polygon: Point[] = [
[9.0, 19.0], // bottom-left
[9.0, 21.0], // top-left
[11.0, 21.0], // top-right
[11.0, 19.0], // bottom-right
[9.0, 19.0], // back to starting point to close the polygon
]
payload.find({
collection: "points",
where: {
point: {
intersects: {
type: 'Polygon',
coordinates: [polygon],
},
},
},
})
```
Upgrade uploadthing to v7
The `options` that can be passed to the plugin now mirror the
`UTApiOptions` of v7.
The most notable change is to pass `token` with
`process.env.UPLOADTHING_TOKEN` instead of `apiKey` with
`process.env.UPLOADTHING_SECRET`.
```diff
options: {
- apiKey: process.env.UPLOADTHING_SECRET,
+ token: process.env.UPLOADTHING_TOKEN,
acl: 'public-read',
},
### What?
List column state could become out of sync if toggling columns happened
in rapid succession as seen in CI. Or when using a spotty connection
where responses could come back out of order.
### Why?
State was not being preserved between toggles. Leading to incorrect
columns being toggled on/off.
### How?
Updates internal column state before making the request to the server so
when a future toggle occurs it has up to date state of all columns. Also
introduces an abort controller to prevent the out of order response
issue.
This is a first pass at updating the 3.0 migration guide. While this
makes significant changes and improvements to the guide, it does not
necessarily reflect _all_ of the migration steps needed in their
entirety quite yet. Those will continue to come in.
Key changes:
- Cleans up outdated examples and removes old ones
- Updates code snippets to latest patterns
- Diffs everything for improved readability
### What?
This command from here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6339
```sh
payload migrate:create --file @payloadcms/db-postgres/relationships-v2-v3
```
stopped working after db-postgers and drizzle packages were separated
### How?
Passes correct `dirname` to `getPredefinedMigration`
Additionally, adds support for `.js` files in `getPredefinedMigration`
### What?
Ensures `path` is required and only present on the fields that expect it
(all fields except row).
Deprecates `useFieldComponents` and `FieldComponentsProvider` and
instead extends the RenderField component to account for all field
types. This also improves type safety within `RenderField`.
### Why?
`path` being optional just adds DX overhead and annoyance.
### How?
Added `FieldPaths` type which is added to iterable field types. Placed
`path` back onto the ClientFieldBase type.
This PR fixes and improves a few things around localisation and
fallbackLocale:
- For the REST API `fallbackLocale` and `fallback-locale` are treated
the same for consistency with the Local API
- `fallback: false` in config is now respected, by default results will
not fallback to `defaultLocale` unless this config is true, can also be
overridden by providing an explicit `fallbackLocale` in the request
- locale specific fallbacks will now take priority over `defaultLocale`
unless an explicit fallback is provided
- Fixes types on operations to allow `'none'` as a value for
fallbackLocale
- `fallback` is now true by default if unspecified
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8443
### What?
Allows configuration of the log level based on the error being thrown
and also downgrades common errors to be info instead of error by
default.
### Why?
Currently all errors result in logger.error being called which can
polute the logs with junk that is normal and doesn't need attention.
### How?
Adds a config property called `loggingLevels` that is used to override
the default log levels based on the name of the error being thrown.
Sanitize config will provide the defaulted 'info' level errors which can
be overriden in the config.
Before

After

### What?
Adds `serverProps` and `clientProps` to custom list view slot
components.
### Why?
They were missing and should be exposed.
### How?
Created custom types for list slot components and threads them through
into `renderListSlots` function and passes them through to each
`RenderServerComponent` that renders list view slot components.
### What?
Uses the `collection.dbName` property for the Mongoose model, if
defined.
### Why?
Currently, `collection.dbName` is used for the version name but not for
the actual collection name. Additionally, `autoPluralization` modifies
the `dbName` regardless. This behavior is inconsistent and contradicts
the documentation.
### How?
- Utilize `collection.dbName` instead of `collection.slug`.
- Disable `autoPluralization` for collections with a defined `dbName`.
Related: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/9058
**BREAKING CHANGES**
If a `dbName` was previously provided, it will now be used as the
MongoDB collection name instead of the collection `slug`.
`autoPluralization` will not be applied to `dbName`.

### What?
Removes abort controllers that were shared globally inside the server
actions provider.
### Why?
Constructing them in this way will cause different fetches using the
same function to cancel one another accidentally.
These are currently causing issues when two components call server
functions, even different functions, because the global ref inside was
being overwritten and aborting the previous one.
### How?
Standardizes how we construct and destroy abort controllers. This PR is focused around creating them to pass into the exposed serverAction provider functions. There are other places where this pattern can be applied.
This fixes a peer dependency error in our monorepo, as
eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y finally supports eslint v9.
Additionally, this officially adds TypeScript 5.6 support for
typescript-eslint.
Now we show not only the collection being linked to, but also the
document title:

Previously this example was just displayed as: `Linked to Users`
- I've added a loading state in case the request is slow (verified with
fake slow connection).
- I have verified that if the `useAsTitle` is not defined, it correctly
fallbacks to the id

Previously, when filtering the internal link relationship in lexical by
typing in the relationship field, it would throw an error, as that
relationship field has a relation to "date-fields".
I'm needing https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/6693
I'm going to keep the dependency bump and feature updates in separate
PRs unless they're breaking changes.*
**BREAKING:**
This upgrades our lexical dependencies from 0.18.0 to 0.20.0. If you
have lexical dependencies installed in your project, you will have to
upgrade those.
Additionally, the lexical team may introduce breaking changes in this
upgrade. If you use lexical APIs directly, please consult their
changelog for more information:
https://github.com/facebook/lexical/releases
1. Open fields test suite
2. Type in relationship field, that has a relation to the numbers
collection
3. Scroll
You will get an error, as the label for the entry corresponding to the
numbers collection is of type number, and it attempts to use the
.toString() method on it
Live preview e2e tests had no CSS when tested against prod.
For all our other tests, we have a separate test/app directory that
imports CSS. Otherwise, the root-level /app directory is used.
For live-preview, we currently always run against test/live-preview/app,
that has no CSS import.
This PR adds a new test/live-preview/prod/app directory that imports CSS
and is used when we run tests against prod.
In order for this to work, I had to make import map generation smarter
Currently, Payload renders all custom components on initial compile of
the admin panel. This is problematic for two key reasons:
1. Custom components do not receive contextual data, i.e. fields do not
receive their field data, edit views do not receive their document data,
etc.
2. Components are unnecessarily rendered before they are used
This was initially required to support React Server Components within
the Payload Admin Panel for two key reasons:
1. Fields can be dynamically rendered within arrays, blocks, etc.
2. Documents can be recursively rendered within a "drawer" UI, i.e.
relationship fields
3. Payload supports server/client component composition
In order to achieve this, components need to be rendered on the server
and passed as "slots" to the client. Currently, the pattern for this is
to render custom server components in the "client config". Then when a
view or field is needed to be rendered, we first check the client config
for a "pre-rendered" component, otherwise render our client-side
fallback component.
But for the reasons listed above, this pattern doesn't exactly make
custom server components very useful within the Payload Admin Panel,
which is where this PR comes in. Now, instead of pre-rendering all
components on initial compile, we're able to render custom components
_on demand_, only as they are needed.
To achieve this, we've established [this
pattern](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8481) of React
Server Functions in the Payload Admin Panel. With Server Functions, we
can iterate the Payload Config and return JSX through React's
`text/x-component` content-type. This means we're able to pass
contextual props to custom components, such as data for fields and
views.
## Breaking Changes
1. Add the following to your root layout file, typically located at
`(app)/(payload)/layout.tsx`:
```diff
/* THIS FILE WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY BY PAYLOAD. */
/* DO NOT MODIFY IT BECAUSE IT COULD BE REWRITTEN AT ANY TIME. */
+ import type { ServerFunctionClient } from 'payload'
import config from '@payload-config'
import { RootLayout } from '@payloadcms/next/layouts'
import { handleServerFunctions } from '@payloadcms/next/utilities'
import React from 'react'
import { importMap } from './admin/importMap.js'
import './custom.scss'
type Args = {
children: React.ReactNode
}
+ const serverFunctions: ServerFunctionClient = async function (args) {
+ 'use server'
+ return handleServerFunctions({
+ ...args,
+ config,
+ importMap,
+ })
+ }
const Layout = ({ children }: Args) => (
<RootLayout
config={config}
importMap={importMap}
+ serverFunctions={serverFunctions}
>
{children}
</RootLayout>
)
export default Layout
```
2. If you were previously posting to the `/api/form-state` endpoint, it
no longer exists. Instead, you'll need to invoke the `form-state` Server
Function, which can be done through the _new_ `getFormState` utility:
```diff
- import { getFormState } from '@payloadcms/ui'
- const { state } = await getFormState({
- apiRoute: '',
- body: {
- // ...
- },
- serverURL: ''
- })
+ const { getFormState } = useServerFunctions()
+
+ const { state } = await getFormState({
+ // ...
+ })
```
## Breaking Changes
```diff
- useFieldProps()
- useCellProps()
```
More details coming soon.

### How?
URL change for correct asset
-->
### What?
Adds full support for the point field to Postgres and Vercel Postgres
adapters through the Postgis extension. Fully the same API as with
MongoDB, including support for `near`, `within` and `intersects`
operators.
Additionally, exposes to adapter args:
*
`tablesFilter`https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/drizzle-kit-push#including-tables-schemas-and-extensions.
* `extensions` list of extensions to create, for example `['vector',
'pg_search']`, `postgis` is created automatically if there's any point
field
### Why?
It's essential to support that field type, especially if the postgres
adapter should be out of beta on 3.0 stable.
### How?
* Bumps `drizzle-orm` to `0.36.1` and `drizzle-kit` to `0.28.0` as we
need this change https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/pull/3141
* Uses its functions to achieve querying functionality, for example the
`near` operator works through `ST_DWithin` or `intersects` through
`ST_Intersects`.
* Removes MongoDB condition from all point field tests, but keeps for
SQLite

fix: migrateRefresh migrates without previously ran migrations
chore: adds tests for database migrate:fresh and migrate:refresh
---------
Co-authored-by: Sasha <64744993+r1tsuu@users.noreply.github.com>
### What?
Moved the logic for copying the data.id to data._id to the mongoose
adapter.
### Why?
If you have any hooks that need to set the `id`, the value does not get
sent to mongodb as you would expect since it was copied before the
beforeValidate hooks.
### How?
Now data._id is assigned only in the mongodb adapter's `create`
function.
BREAKING CHANGES:
When using custom ID fields, if you have any collection hooks for
beforeValidate, beforeChange then `data._id` will no longer be assigned
as this happens now in the database adapter. Use `data.id` instead.
Closes#9000
When you update a relationship document via the document drawer, the
initial document is registering `modified: true`. We should only set
modified to true on the initial document if the relationship id has
changed.
### What?
Fixes issue with incorrect `totalDocs` value when an aggregation is used
for `find`.
Previously, `limit: 5` for example always returned `totalDocs: 5`.
### Why?
`totalDocs` must be returned correctly.
### How?
Removes `$limit` from the pipeline, as `Model.aggregatePaginate` handles
it by itself.
### What?
Because of my error, we didn't pass `populate` to `findOperation` from
the Local API.
### Why?
`populate` must work for every operation that has `depth`.
### How?
Passes `populate` in `operations/local/find.ts`, ensures it works with
the test, checked that other operations pass it.
### What?
Updated the Bulgarian translations for improved accuracy.
- Fixed translations that were not in Bulgarian. (Czech and Russian)
- Fixed translations that contained typos.
- Improved some translations to use more accurate wording.

[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
document in this repository.
Type of change
- [x] fix (non-breaking change)
### What?
Fixes a formatting issue that prevents
payloadcms.com/docs/beta/jobs-queue/overview from displaying properly.
There were a couple `<strong>` tags in the `jobs-queue/overview` docs
that did not have proper closing `</strong>` tags.
`create-payload-app` will now use git tags when cloning down the
templates instead of using latest from a branch.
The mechanism is cpa will read its own package.json version and use that
as a git tag prefixed w/ `v`
### What?
- Makes `jobs.workflows` optional
- Dynamically include the `workflowSlugs` select field in the jobs
collection as needed
### Why?
When configuring jobs, it should be possible to define `job` with just
some simple tasks and not be forced to define workflows.
### How?
Workflows type was made optional and optional chaining is added where
needed. The workflowSlugs field is added to the jobs collection if
workflows are defined.
Fixes #
When using postgres, the workflowSlugs being an empty enum cause an
error when drizzle fails to detect the enum already exists. This results
in the error `"enum_payload_jobs_workflow_slug" already exists`. Drizzle
tries to make the enum as: `enum_payload_jobs_workflow_slug as enum();`
and the check for existing enums only works when it has values.
## Problem
When `PayloadRequest` objects are logged using `console.log`, it creates
unstructured, multiline entries in logging services like DataDog and
Sentry. This circumvents the structured logging approach used throughout
the rest of the codebase.
## Solution
Replace `console.x` calls with the structured logging system when
logging `payload.logger.x` objects. This ensures consistent log
formatting and better integration with monitoring tools.
## Changes
- Replaced instances of `console.log` with structured logging methods
only in `@payloadcms/next`
- Maintains logging consistency across the codebase
- Improves log readability in DataDog, Sentry, and other monitoring
services

### What?
Generates types for `joins` property.
Example from our `joins` test, keys are type-safe:
<img width="708" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f1fbbb9d-7c39-49a2-8aa2-a4793ae4ad7e">
Output in `payload-types.ts`:
```ts
collectionsJoins: {
categories: {
relatedPosts: 'posts';
hasManyPosts: 'posts';
hasManyPostsLocalized: 'posts';
'group.relatedPosts': 'posts';
'group.camelCasePosts': 'posts';
filtered: 'posts';
singulars: 'singular';
};
};
```
Additionally, we include type information about on which collection the
join is, it will help when we have types generation for `where` and
`sort`.
### Why?
It provides a better DX as you don't need to memoize your keys.
### How?
Modifies `configToJSONSchema` to generate the json schema for
`collectionsJoins`, uses that type within `JoinQuery`
### What?
Adds `populate` property to Local API and REST API operations that can
be used to specify `select` for a specific collection when it's
populated
```ts
const result = await payload.findByID({
populate: {
// type safe if you have generated types
posts: {
text: true,
},
},
collection: 'pages',
depth: 1,
id: aboutPage.id,
})
result.relatedPost // only has text and id properties
```
```ts
fetch('https://localhost:3000/api/pages?populate[posts][text]=true') // highlight-line
.then((res) => res.json())
.then((data) => console.log(data))
```
It also overrides
[`defaultPopulate`](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8934)
Ensures `defaultPopulate` doesn't affect GraphQL.
### How?
Implements the property for all operations that have the `depth`
argument.
### What?
Handles database name with special characters. For example: `-` -
`my-awesome-app`.
### Why?
Previously, `my-awesome-app` led to this error:
```
Error: failed to create database my-awesome-app.
Details: syntax error at or near "-"
```
This can reproduced for example with `create-payload-app`, as the
generated db name is based on project's name.
### How?
Wraps the query variable to quotes, `create database "my-awesome-app"`
instead of `create database my-awesome-app`.
### What?
Uses sequential pattern for Bulk Upload instead of `Promise.all`.
### Why?
* Concurrent uploads led to filename conflicts for example when you have
`upload.png` and `upload(1).png` already and you try to upload
`upload.png`
* Potentially expensive for resources, especially with high amount of
files / sizes
### How?
Replaces `Promise.all` with `for` loop, adds indicator "Uploaded 2/20"
to the loading overlay.

Setting a custom `id` field within unnamed fields causes duplicative ID
fields to be appear in the client config. When a top-level `id` field is
detected in your config, Payload uses that instead of injecting its
default field. But when nested within unnamed fields, such as an unnamed
tab, these custom `id` fields were not being found, causing the default
field to be duplicately rendered into tables columns, etc.
### What?
Makes it possible to filter join documents using a `where` added
directly in the config.
### Why?
It makes the join field more powerful for adding contextual meaning to
the documents being returned. For example, maybe you have a
`requiresAction` field that you set and you can have a join that
automatically filters the documents to those that need attention.
### How?
In the database adapter, we merge the requested `where` to the `where`
defined on the field.
On the frontend the results are filtered using the `filterOptions`
property in the component.

### What?
Fixes support for custom endpoints with `method: 'put'`.
Previously, this didn't work:
```ts
export default buildConfigWithDefaults({
collections: [ ],
endpoints: [
{
method: 'put',
handler: () => new Response(),
path: '/put',
},
],
})
```
### Why?
We supported this in 2.0 and docs are saying that we can use `'put'` as
`method`
https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/rest-api/overview#custom-endpoints
### How?
Implements the `REST_PUT` export for `@payloadcms/next/routes`, updates
all templates. Additionally, adds tests to ensure root/collection level
custom endpoints with all necessary methods execute properly.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8807
-->
### What?
Makes this to actually work
```ts
import type { RequestContext as OriginalRequestContext } from 'payload'
declare module 'payload' {
// Create a new interface that merges your additional fields with the original one
export interface RequestContext extends OriginalRequestContext {
myObject?: string
// ...
}
}
```

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/38570d3c-e8a8-48aa-a57d-6d11e79394f5">
### Why?
This is described in our docs
https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/hooks/context#typescript therefore it
should work.
### How?
In order to get the declaration work, we need to reuse the type from the
root file `payload/src/index.js`. Additionally, removes `RequestContext`
type duplication in both `payload/src/types/index.js` and
`payload/src/index.js`.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8851
### What?
Any changes inside edit popup for the field with type `upload` and the
`relationTo` collection does nothing in context of the field, it has
affect only to collection.
I.e. when you make an edit to an uploads field in the edit drawer -
after saving and existing the drawer, your new changes are not present
until a refresh of the page.
### Why?
Previously, we were not performing a reload of the document fetch upon
saving of the doc in the edit drawer.
### How?
Now, we perform a reload (fetch) for updated docs on save within the
edit drawer.
Fixes#8837
### What?
If you have a custom field that sets the value of the field using the
`useField` hook on entry into a document - the `updatedAt` field would
be updated even when a non-owner tries to enter a locked document.
### Why?
When a field is updated in the edit view - we perform an update in
`form-state` to keep the doc in `payload-locked-documents` up to date
with the current editing status. The above scenario would hit this
update operation even on non-owner users because it was previously only
checking for `updateLastEdited` (which would get hit by the `setValue`
in the `useField` hook) so we also need to check to make sure the
current user entering a locked doc is also the owner of the document.
### How?
When performing an update to `payload-locked-documents` in
`buildFormState` - only perform the update if the current user is also
the owner of the locked document otherwise skip the `update` operation.
Fixes#8781
Adds the `x-powered-by` header to include Payload alongside Next.js
End result looks like this
```
x-powered-by:
Next.js, Payload
```
It also respects the nextConfig `poweredBy: false` to completely disable
it
Potentially fixes#9012 by disabling prefetch for all Next.js `Link`
component usage.
With prefetch left as the default and _on_, there were cases where the
prefetch could fetch stale data for Edit routes. Then, when navigating
to the Edit route, the data could be stale.
In addition, I think there is some strangeness happening on the Next.js
side where prefetched data might still come from the router cache even
though router cache is disabled.
This fix should be done regardless, but I suspect it will solve for a
lot of stale data issues.
GraphQL currently doesn't pass CORS checks as we don't expose an OPTIONS
endpoint which is used for browser preflights.
Should also fix situations like this
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8974
### What?
Fixes type for the `select` property when having `strictNullChecks:
true` or `strict: true` in tsconfig.
### Why?
`select` should provide autocompletion for users, at this point it
doesn't work with this condtiion
### How?
Makes `collectionsSelect` and `globalsSelect` properties required in
`configToJSONSchema.ts`.
Fixes
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8550#issuecomment-2452669237
### What?
Fixes the issue with querying by `id` from REST / `overrideAccess:
false`.
For example, this didn't work:
`/api/loans?where[book.bibliography.id][equals]=67224d74257b3f2acddc75f4`
```
QueryError: The following path cannot be queried: id
```
### Why?
We support this syntax within the Local API.
### How?
Now, for simplicity we sanitize everything like
`relation.otherRelation.id` to `relation.otherRelation`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9008
### What?
Includes `hasMany`, `minRows`, and `maxRows` in Upload field config
options table.
### Why?
To be inline with the type definitions.
### How?
Changes to `docs/fields/upload.mdx`
### What?
Fixes `select` handling for properties inside of unnamed tabs using the
mongodb adapter.
Additionally, refactors `traverseFields` in drizzle to reuse logic from
groups / collapsible or rows if unnamed.
### Why?
`select` must work for any fields.
### How?
Fixes the `'tab'` case in `buildProjectionFromSelect` to handle when the
field is an unnamed tab.
Adds extra tests for named tabs / unnamed.
### What?
When read access is restricted on the `users` collection - restricted
users would not have access to other users complete user data object
only their IDs when accessing `user.value`.
### Why?
This is problematic when determining the lock status of a document from
a restricted users perspective as `user.id` would not exist - the user
data would not be an object in this case but instead a `string` or
`number` value for user ID
### How?
This PR properly handles both cases now and checks if the incoming user
data is an object or just a `string` / `number`.
## The SEO plugin now takes in a function to override or add in new
fields
- `fieldOverrides` has been removed
- `fields` is now a function that takes in `defaultFields` and expects
an array of fields in return
This makes it a lot easier for end users to override and extend existing
fields and add new ones. This change also brings this plugin inline with
the pattern that we use in our other plugins.
```ts
// before
seoPlugin({
fieldOverrides: {
title: {
required: true,
},
},
fields: [
{
name: 'customField',
type: 'text',
}
]
})
// after
seoPlugin({
fields: ({ defaultFields }) => {
const modifiedFields = defaultFields.map((field) => {
// Override existing fields
if ('name' in field && field.name === 'title') {
return {
...field,
required: true,
}
}
return field
})
return [
...modifiedFields,
// Add a new field
{
name: 'ogTitle',
type: 'text',
label: 'og:title',
},
]
},
})
```
## Also fixes
- Localization labels not showing up on default fields
- The inability to add before and after inputs to default fields

### What?
`auth` enabled collections show "Password" fields whenever a GraphQL
query is performed or the GraphQL playground is opened (see #8032)
You can reproduce this behavior by spinning up the `admin` test with
PostgreSQL:
```bash
pnpm dev:postgres admin
```
Open the admin UI and navigate to the `dev@payloadcms.com` document in
the `Users` collection (see screenshot below)
<img width="915" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/40624a8f-80b7-412b-b851-5e3643ffcae1">
Open the [GraphQL
playground](http://localhost:3000/api/graphql-playground)
Open the admin UI and select the user again. The password field appears
multiple times.
Subsequent GraphQL playground page refreshes lead to even more password
fields in the admin UI.
<img width="1086" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/009264bd-b153-4bf7-8fc9-8e465fc27247">
The current behavior has an impact during development and even on
production. Since the password field is added to the collection, payload
tries to add this field to the database as well (at least I could
observe at in my own project)
### Why?
In the `packages/graphql/src/schema/initCollections.ts` file, the
`initCollections` function mutates the config object by adding the
password field for the GraphQL schema (line 128). This mutation adds the
field multiple times, depending how often you open the playground. In
addition, this added field is also shown in the UI since the config
object is shared (see screenshot above).
### How?
By creating a deep copy of the object, the mutation of the configuration
does not leak additional fields to the UI or other parts of the code.
Fixes an issue where using wildcards in upload-enabled collection
mimeType restrictions would prevent files from being selected in the
bulk upload file selector.
Adds a jobs queue to Payload.
- [x] Docs, w/ examples for Vercel Cron, additional services
- [x] Type the `job` using GeneratedTypes in `JobRunnerArgs`
(@AlessioGr)
- [x] Write the `runJobs` function
- [x] Allow for some type of `payload.runTask`
- [x] Open up a new bin script for running jobs
- [x] Determine strategy for runner endpoint to either await jobs
successfully or return early and stay open until job work completes
(serverless ramifications here)
- [x] Allow for job runner to accept how many jobs to run in one
invocation
- [x] Make a Payload local API method for creating a new job easily
(payload.createJob) or similar which is strongly typed (@AlessioGr)
- [x] Make `payload.runJobs` or similar (@AlessioGr)
- [x] Write tests for retrying up to max retries for a given step
- [x] Write tests for dynamic import of a runner
The shape of the config should permit the definition of steps separate
from the job workflows themselves.
```js
const config = {
// Not sure if we need this property anymore
queues: {
},
// A job is an instance of a workflow, stored in DB
// and triggered by something at some point
jobs: {
// Be able to override the jobs collection
collectionOverrides: () => {},
// Workflows are groups of tasks that handle
// the flow from task to task.
// When defined on the config, they are considered as predefined workflows
// BUT - in the future, we'll allow for UI-based workflow definition as well.
workflows: [
{
slug: 'job-name',
// Temporary name for this
// should be able to pass function
// or path to it for Node to dynamically import
controlFlowInJS: '/my-runner.js',
// Temporary name as well
// should be able to eventually define workflows
// in UI (meaning they need to be serialized in JSON)
// Should not be able to define both control flows
controlFlowInJSON: [
{
task: 'myTask',
next: {
// etc
}
}
],
// Workflows take input
// which are a group of fields
input: [
{
name: 'post',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'posts',
maxDepth: 0,
required: true,
},
{
name: 'message',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
},
],
// Tasks are defined separately as isolated functions
// that can be retried on fail
tasks: [
{
slug: 'myTask',
retries: 2,
// Each task takes input
// Used to auto-type the task func args
input: [
{
name: 'post',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'posts',
maxDepth: 0,
required: true,
},
{
name: 'message',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
// Each task takes output
// Used to auto-type the function signature
output: [
{
name: 'success',
type: 'checkbox',
}
],
onSuccess: () => {},
onFail: () => {},
run: myRunner,
},
]
}
}
```
### `payload.createJob`
This function should allow for the creation of jobs based on either a
workflow (group of tasks) or an individual task.
To create a job using a workflow:
```js
const job = await payload.createJob({
// Accept the `name` of a workflow so we can match to either a
// code-based workflow OR a workflow defined in the DB
// Should auto-type the input
workflowName: 'myWorkflow',
input: {
// typed to the args of the workflow by name
}
})
```
To create a job using a task:
```js
const job = await payload.createJob({
// Accept the `name` of a task
task: 'myTask',
input: {
// typed to the args of the task by name
}
})
```

### What?
I noticed a spelling error in the banner of the beta docs and decided I
could save everyone some time by *running the entirety of the beta docs*
through a spellchecker.
### Why?
To fix many spelling and formatting mistakes at once.
### How?
By enabling `edit mode` in my browser and letting the built-in
spellchecker perform its magic (and changing _only_ where it made
sense).
~~Ironically, the original spelling mistake that inspired me to do this
remains unchanged as that is a part of the website repo. [PR for that is
here](https://github.com/payloadcms/website/pull/388).~~
### What?
Since the join field, we do store relationship fields values in
`ObjectID`. This wasn't true if the field is nested to an array /
blocks.
### Why?
All relationship fields values should be stored in `ObjectID`.
### How?
Fixes arrays / blocks handling in the `traverseFields.ts` function.
Before it didn't run for them.
### What?
Adds `defaultPopulate` property to collection config that allows to
specify which fields to select when the collection is populated from
another document.
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
// The TSlug generic can be passed to have type safety for `defaultPopulate`.
// If avoided, the `defaultPopulate` type resolves to `SelectType`.
export const Pages: CollectionConfig<'pages'> = {
slug: 'pages',
// I need only slug, NOT the WHOLE CONTENT!
defaultPopulate: {
slug: true,
},
fields: [
{
name: 'slug',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
}
```
### Why?
This is essential for example in case of links. You don't need the whole
document, which can contain large data but only the `slug`.
### How?
Implements `defaultPopulate` when populating relationships, including
inside of lexical / slate rich text fields.
This PR aims to fix a few issues with the notFound page and custom views
so it matches v2 behaviour:
- Non authorised users should always be redirected to the login page
regardless if not found or valid URL
- Previously notFound would render for non users too potentially
exposing valid but protected routes and creating a confusing workflow as
the UI was being rendered as well
- Custom views are now public by default
- in our `admin` test suite, the `/admin/public-custom-view` is
accessible to non users but
`/admin/public-custom-view/protected-nested-view` is not unless the
checkbox is true in the Settings global, there's e2e coverage for this
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8716
Documentation updated to match current implementation.
Original Doc:
```ts
import { payloadCloud } from '@payloadcms/payload-cloud'
```
Current:
```ts
import { payloadCloudPlugin } from '@payloadcms/payload-cloud'
```

References in docs have been updated.
### What?
Properly specifies `$lookup.from` when the collection name is singular.
### Why?
MongoDB can pluralize the collection name and so can be different for
singular ones.
### How?
Uses the collection name from the driver directly
`adapter.collections[slug].collection.name` instead of just `slug`.
The search plugin was incorrectly retrieving all locales, when it should
just be retrieving the locale of the parent document that was actively
being updated.
## BREAKING CHANGES:
If you have a localized Payload config, and you are using the `plugin-search`, we will now automatically localize the `title` field that is injected by the search plugin and this may lead to data loss. To opt out of this new behavior, you can pass `localize: false` to the plugin options.
Adds `select` which is used to specify the field projection for local
and rest API calls. This is available as an optimization to reduce the
payload's of requests and make the database queries more efficient.
Includes:
- [x] generate types for the `select` property
- [x] infer the return type by `select` with 2 modes - include (`field:
true`) and exclude (`field: false`)
- [x] lots of integration tests, including deep fields / localization
etc
- [x] implement the property in db adapters
- [x] implement the property in the local api for most operations
- [x] implement the property in the rest api
- [x] docs

### What?
Adds a way to prevent creating new documents from the admin UI in a join
field.
### Why?
There are two reasons:
1. You want to disable this any time as a feature of your admin user
experience
2. When creating a new document it is not yet possible to create the
relationship, preventing create is necessary for the workflow to make
sense.
### How?
join field has a new admin property called `allowCreate`, can be set to
false. By default the UI will never allow create when the current
document being edited does not yet have an `id`.
Fixes #
#8892
### Before
Even though the document doesn't have an ID yet, the create buttons are
shown which doesn't actually work.

### After
Initial document creation:

Prevented using `allowCreate: false`

Corrects package import paths for live preview test.
- This would cause a import glitch when trying to run the live-preview
test due to incorrect file paths.
### What?
Fixes the issue with passing a string `limit` value from user
preferences to the mongodb `.aggregate` function.
To reproduce:
- click the list view for a collection that has a join field
- set "show per page" to 100
- reload, see this:
<img width="1001" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/86c644d1-d183-48e6-bf34-0ccac23cb114">
### Why?
When using `.aggregate`, MongoDB doesn't cast a value for the `$limit`
stage to a number automatically as it's not handled by Mongoose. It's
also more convenient to store this value as a number.
### How?
Stores `limit` inside of preferences in number.
### What?
This PR aims to fix an issue in the form-builder plugin page - in the
`number` field table, where an issue with one of the columns makes the
whole table unformatted. [See issue
here](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/plugins/form-builder#number).
### Why?
As it stands, the whole table is being rendered without any formatting,
making understanding it very difficult.
### How?
Changes to `docs/plugins/form-builder.mdx`
`Issue`:
Previously, documents that were locked but expired would still show in
the list view / render the `DocumentLocked` modal upon other users
entering the document.
The expected outcome should be having expired locked documents seen as
unlocked to other users.
I.e:
- Removing the lock icon from expired locks in the list view.
- Prevent the `DocumentLocked` modal from appearing for other users -
requiring a take over.
`Fix`:
- Only query for locked documents that are not expired, aka their
`updatedAt` dates are greater than the the current time minus the lock
duration.
- Performs a `deleteMany` on expired documents when any user edits any
other document in the same collection.
Fixes#8778
`TODO`: Add tests
### What?
Fixes the issue with `in` querying when the collection has a join field.
### Why?
When using `.aggregate`, MongoDB doesn't cast a comma delimited value
for the `$in` operator to an array automatically as it's not handled by
Mongoose.
### How?
Sanitizes the incoming value to an array if it should.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8901
### What?
Allow specifying the defaultSort and defaultLimit to use for populating
a join field
### Why?
It is much easier to set defaults rather than be forced to always call
the join query using the query pattern ("?joins[categories][limit]=0").
### How?
See docs and type changes

While following the "Adding to an existing app" instructions for the
**beta** docs, I noticed that the pnpm installation commands for the
database adapters were missing the `@beta` tag, which will result in
errors in the project.
Fixes a potential race condition where versions could lose `latest:
true` and potentially also introduce a conflict with the `parent` field.
We now explicitly define these as we update versions in the
`saveVersion` function.
Previously, when opening e.g. a link drawer, clicking within the drawer,
and then closing it, the cursor / selection of the lexical editor will
reset to the beginning of the editor.
Now, we have dedicated logic to storing, preserving and restoring the
lexical selection when working with drawers.
This will work with all drawers. Links, uploads, relationships etc.

BREAKING CHANGE: Rename `@payloadcms/plugin-cloud` to
`@payloadcms/payload-cloud`. Anyone using the existing plugin will need
to switch to using the new package.
## Why?
Since v3 will be using _fixed versioning_, all versions of `^3` must be
available. Unfortunately, the `@payloadcms/plugin-cloud` version has
already breached that version number. Renaming will allow it to be on
the same version as other monorepo packages.
Additionally, the name `plugin-cloud` is quite ambiguous and sometimes
is confused with `plugin-cloud-storage`, so using `payload-cloud` feels
like a good move to make this more evident.
Fixes an annoying instance where on the /account page if you change your
theme then navigate away the Leaving without save popup is triggered
even though you don't need to submit a form or trigger a save in order
to change your admin theme.

### What?
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/5152 issue related to
sorting by a localized field with SQLite / Postgres database adapters.
### Why?
It was an incorrect behaviour.
### How?
Modifies the `getTableColumnFromPath` file to have correct join
conditions. Previously if you had this structure in the _locales table
_locale title parent
en A 1
es B 1
we sorted by everything that's here, but we need to sort only by the
passed locale.
Additionally fixes a typescript error in `dev.ts` that I added here
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8834
Also, removes the condition with `joins.length` in `countDistinct`. It
was there as for this issue
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/4889 because sorting by a
localized property caused duplication. This can simnifically improve
performance for `.find` with nested querying/sorting on large data sets,
because `count(*)` is faster than `count(DISTINCT id)`
I'm extending the Slate editor with a custom component and everything
works great, except I have to import `useElement()` like this:
```tsx
import { useElement } from 'node_modules/.pnpm/@payloadcms+richtext-slate@3.0.0-beta.113_monaco-editor@0.51.0_next@15.0.0-canary.191_@babel+_qmdxs6s5hpzjhuopohgawpvl6i/node_modules/@payloadcms/richtext-slate/dist/field/providers/ElementProvider.js'
export function Element() {
const { attributes, children } = useElement()
return (
<p {...attributes} className="rich-text-preheading">
{children}
</p>
)
}
```
That's because it's not in the `@payloadcms/richtext-slate/client`
module. This PR fixes this and would allow me to do:
```tsx
import { useElement } from '@payloadcms/richtext-slate/client'
```
Apparently, `nextDev` seems to run in a different process and has its
own env variables, we can run the dev server the same way we run it for
E2Es instead via `createServer`.
Example:
```sh
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry
```
to:
```sh
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry@beta
```
Because of this, people can be confused with the wrong installed
version. We'll change it back on stable
Adjust drizzle init for changes in drizzle 0.35.0

```ts
this.drizzle = drizzle({
client: this.poolOptions ? new VercelPool(this.poolOptions) : sql,

})

causing drizzle to attempt to `127.0.0.1:5432` instead of the specified
environment variable in the adapter 🤔

See comments in code for proper explanation. In some cases, where 2
richtext `editor`s referencing the same `editor` are used, the admin
panel will hang. That's because the server will send their client props
that have the same object reference down to the client twice.
Next.js sometimes does not like this and, ever since one of the v15
canaries, started to hang
## Description
The goal is to reduce CLS on collapsed/expanded state of Lexical blocks.
That state is stored as "preferences" and is different for each user.
As Payload has been working so far, if the state of a Lexical block was
"collapsed", it was rendered expanded, and when the correct state was
obtained from the server, it was collapsed producing a CLS with a poor
UX.
My original idea was to get the correct state on the first render.
Talking to @AlessioGr and @jmikrut, we saw that this can be a bit
difficult or challenging, since the feature on the server does not have
access to the Payload object, nor to the user who is making the request.
I was instructed to mimic the behavior of blocks not in Lexial
(`\ui\src\fields\Collapsible\index.tsx`). There the blocks are rendered
after the collapse/expand state is obtained in a useEffect.
In the following video, the case where the first block is collapsed is
shown, rendering everything with a "fast 4G" connection throttle.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/078e37c7-6540-4183-a266-bd751cc9d78e
Yes, it's a slight improvement over current behavior. But it could be
much better. There are request waterfalls several levels deep, and
plenty of CLS still.
Unless there is some very big tradeoff that I'm not aware of, I think
it's worth exposing the Payload object and the user to the server in
order to get the correct state on the first render.
And if that's not possible and the request has to be made on the client,
I think initializing the state as collapsed and then expanding it is
better than not showing it at all.
Another observation that is evident from the video, is that there are
several sources or causes of CLS besides the expanded/collapsed state of
the blocks.

Currently in the `beta` docs at the bottom of [Local API Overview Import
It
section](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/local-api/overview#importing-it)
there is a link for _Outside Nextjs_ which incorrectly sends you to
`/docs/beta/beta/local-api/outside-nextjs` instead of
`docs/beta/local-api/outside-nextjs`.
Interestingly enough, a `Not Found` component/message is not rendered
and instead you see a blank screen.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8752
Previously, trying to define a config like this:
```ts
{
type: 'text',
name: 'someText',
index: true,
},
{
type: 'array',
name: 'some',
index: true,
fields: [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'text',
index: true,
},
],
}
```
Lead to the error:
```
Warning We've found duplicated index name across public schema. Please rename your index in either the demonstration table or the table with the duplicated index name
```
Now, if we encounter duplicates, we increment the name like this:
`collection_some_text_idx`
`collection_some_text_1_idx`

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8224
Fixes an issue with PG `where` filters not being respected when
generating doc policies/permissions by utilizing the combineQueries
function in getEntityPolicies function.
Fixes#8589
### Issue:
There were problems with updating documents in
`payload-locked-documents` collection i.e when "taking over" a document
- a `patch` request is sent to `payload-locked-documents` to update the
user (owner).
However, as a result, this `update` operation would lock that
corresponding doc in `payload-locked-documents` and therefore error on
the `patch` request.
### Fix:
Disable document locking entirely from `payload-locked-documents` &
`preferences` & `migrations` collections
Fixes#8673
This PR restricts inputs with `type="file"` to only those mimetypes
specified in collection upload configs. This also works for the input in
`bulkUpload` and drag-and-drop capabilities by omitting dropped files if
they do not conform to the upload config mimetypes. This PR also assumes
that an upload config with an empty mimetype array should accept all
files since the negation of that statement makes an upload collection
redundant.
Inheriting all the fixes from drizzle moving to latest versions
## BREAKING CHANGES
If you have a prior version of @libsql/client installed in your project,
you must upgrade to 0.14.0
Filtering by `null` `number` field values or normal values with the
`exists` operator was not working in `postgres` & `sqlite`.
Was previously fixed for `mongodb`
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8416)
Now fixed for `postgres` & `sqlite` adapters as well.
In some instances, form states incorrectly setting valid to true even
when they should not be, just because no validate function is present.
This was apparent when using bulk upload drawers inside the multi-tenant
example which inserts a custom field for the TenantSelector on
documents.

fixes#8672
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8413 and
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6460
- Builds indexes for relationships by default in the SQL schema
- Fixes `unique: true` handling with Postgres / SQLite for every type of
relationships (non-polymorphic. hasMany, polymorphic, polymorphic
hasMany) _note_: disables unique for nested to arrays / blocks
relationships in the `_rels` table.
- adds tests
2.0 PR tha ports only indexes creation
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8446, because `unique: true`
could be a breaking change if someone has incosistent unique data in the
database.
Adds `createDatabase` method to Postgres adapters which can be used
either independently like this:
```ts
payload.db.createDatabase({
name: "some-database",
schemaName: "custom-schema"
})
```
Or
```ts
payload.db.createDatabase()
```
Which creates a database from the current configuration, this is used in
`connect` if `autoDatabaseCreate` is set to `true` (default).
You can disable this behaviour with:
```ts
postgresAdapter({ autoDatabaseCreate: false })
```
Example:
<img width="470" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8d08c79d-9672-454c-af0f-eb802f9dcd99">
This PR makes a more clear gap between `version_createdAt` /
`version_updatedAt` and `createdAt` / `updatedAt` columns / fields in
mongodb.
- `createdAt` - This should be a new value in a new version. Before this
change it was the same all the time. Should remain the same on autosave.
- The same for `updatedAt`, but it should be updated on every change
(including autosave)
- `version_createdAt` - Should remain equal to `createdAt` from the
parent collection / table
- `version_updatedAt` - On a latest version it makes sense this be the
same as `updatedAt` from the parent collection / table, as all the
`version_*` fields should be just synced with it
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8635
`withPayload.cjs` is now correctly named in the exports
The final exports in package.json looks like this
```
"./withPayload": {
"import": "./dist/withPayload.js",
"require": "./dist/cjs/withPayload.cjs",
"default": "./dist/withPayload.js"
},
```
You can now use withPayload with require inside `next.config.js` files
```
const { withPayload } = require('@payloadcms/next/withPayload')
const nextConfig = {
// Your Next.js config here
experimental: {
reactCompiler: false,
},
}
module.exports = withPayload(nextConfig)
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8630
- Fixes `hasMany: true` and `localized: true` on the foreign field
- Adds `limit` to the subquery instead of hardcoded `11`.
- Adds the schema path `field.on` to the subquery, without this having 2
or more relationship fields to the same collection breaks joins
- Properly checks if the field is `hasMany`
- Adds optional tenant-based cookie handling based by domain (commented
out to leave functionality out by default)
- Removes 2.0 multi-tenant example
- Updates `examples/multi-tenant-single-domain` -->
`examples/multi-tenant`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8562
Removes `debug` option from i18n docs - never existed.
Corrects hallucinations in the docs and lays out exactly how custom
translations should be used when you want to use them in custom
components.
### Improvements
- Uses overlay modal for "logging out..." display on logout view
- If user manually logs out it takes them directly to the login page
after logout, if caused by inactivity then they will see the logout page
that explains that they were logged out due to inactivity
- Fixes issue with cookie refresh triggering even after the user logs
out
- Cleans up auth provider timeouts for refresh and force logout
- `setUser` now expects the result similar to the response from the
`/me` endpoint, which includes the token, exp, and user
### BREAKING CHANGE
If you are using the `setUser` function exposed from the `useAuth()`
provider, then you will need to make some adjustments.
`setUser` now expects the response data from auth enabled endpoints, ie
the `/me` route. This is so the cookie and expiration can be properly
set in sync when a new user is set on the provider.
```ts
// before
setUser({
id: 670524817048be0fa222fc01,
email: dev@payloadcms.com,
// ... other user properties
})
// new
setUser({
user: {
id: 670524817048be0fa222fc01,
email: dev@payloadcms.com,
// ... other user properties
},
exp: 1728398351,
token: "....eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVC...."
})
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8470
Cleans up the way we redirect and where it happens.
## Improvements
- When you verify, the admin panel will display a toast when it
redirects you to the login route. This is contextually helpful as to
what is happening.
- Removes dead code path, as we always set the _verifiedToken to null
after it is used.
## `handleAdminPage` renamed to `getRouteInfo`
This function no longer handles routing. It kicks that responsibility
back up to the initPage function.
## `isAdminAuthRoute` renamed to `isPublicAdminRoute`
This was inversely named as it determines if a given route is public.
Also simplifies deterministic logic here.
## `redirectUnauthenticatedUser` argument
This is no longer used or needed. We can determine these things by using
the `isPublicAdminRoute` function.
## View Style fixes
- Reset Password
- Forgot Password
- Unauthorized
Payload uses `pino` for a logger. When using the error logger
`payload.logger.error` it is possible to pass any number of arguments
like this: `payload.logger.error('Some error ocurred', err)`. However,
in this scenario, the full error will not be serialized by `pino`. It
must be passed as the `err` property inside of an object in order to be
properly serialized.
This rule ensures that a user is using this function call to properly serialize the error.
There are two of the exact same e2e tests for the join field, which
throws an error when running these tests locally because they have
identical names.
This has caused me great pain. The problem with this test is that the
page was waiting for a URL which includes a search query that never
arrives. This moves the check into a regex pattern for a more accurate
catch.
All payload css is now encapsulated inside CSS layers under `@layer
payload-default`
Any custom css will now have the highest possible specificity.
We have also provided a new layer `@layer payload` if you want to use
layers and ensure that your styles are applied after payload.
To override existing styles in a way that the existing rules of
specificity would be respected you can use the default layer like so
```css
@layer payload-default {
// my styles within the payload specificity
}
```
The comments injected into auto-generated files have gotten misformatted
due to linting. Here is the proper format, where both comments are
adjacent to one another:
```js
/* THIS FILE WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY BY PAYLOAD. */
/* DO NOT MODIFY IT BECAUSE IT COULD BE REWRITTEN AT ANY TIME. */
```
Some comments were also written with casing issues, here's an example:
```js
/* DO NOT MODIFY it because it could be re-written at any time. */
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8534
UI fields are now excluded by default from the bulk edit view fields
options.
If you need to have the UI field there, you can provide:
```ts
admin: {
disableBulkEdit: false
}
```
Importing `withPayload` as CommonJS using `require` does not properly
resolve. This was because the exported file path was using the `.cjs`
extension instead of `.js`.
Including this file was causing the dependency checker to error because
it was installing all `@lexical` packages on version 0.17.0, instead of
0.18.0.

This PR implements the ability to attempt to force the use of light/dark
theme in the admin panel. While I am a big advocate for the benefits
that dark mode can bring to UX, it does not always suit a clients
branding needs.
Open to discussion on whether we consider this a suitable feature for
the platform. Please feel free to add to this PR as needed.
TODO:
- [x] Implement tests (I'm open to guidance on this from the Payload
team as currently it doesn't look like it's possible to adjust the
payload config file on the fly - meaning it can't be easily placed in
the admin folder tests).

Adds abillity to customize the generated Drizzle schema with
`beforeSchemaInit` and `afterSchemaInit`. Could be useful if you want to
preserve the existing database schema / override the generated one with
features that aren't supported from the Payload config.
## Docs:
### beforeSchemaInit
Runs before the schema is built. You can use this hook to extend your
database structure with tables that won't be managed by Payload.
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
import { integer, pgTable, serial } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'
postgresAdapter({
beforeSchemaInit: [
({ schema, adapter }) => {
return {
...schema,
tables: {
...schema.tables,
addedTable: pgTable('added_table', {
id: serial('id').notNull(),
}),
},
}
},
],
})
```
One use case is preserving your existing database structure when
migrating to Payload. By default, Payload drops the current database
schema, which may not be desirable in this scenario.
To quickly generate the Drizzle schema from your database you can use
[Drizzle
Introspection](https://orm.drizzle.team/kit-docs/commands#introspect--pull)
You should get the `schema.ts` file which may look like this:
```ts
import { pgTable, uniqueIndex, serial, varchar, text } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'
export const users = pgTable('users', {
id: serial('id').primaryKey(),
fullName: text('full_name'),
phone: varchar('phone', { length: 256 }),
})
export const countries = pgTable(
'countries',
{
id: serial('id').primaryKey(),
name: varchar('name', { length: 256 }),
},
(countries) => {
return {
nameIndex: uniqueIndex('name_idx').on(countries.name),
}
},
)
```
You can import them into your config and append to the schema with the
`beforeSchemaInit` hook like this:
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
import { users, countries } from '../drizzle/schema'
postgresAdapter({
beforeSchemaInit: [
({ schema, adapter }) => {
return {
...schema,
tables: {
...schema.tables,
users,
countries
},
}
},
],
})
```
Make sure Payload doesn't overlap table names with its collections. For
example, if you already have a collection with slug "users", you should
either change the slug or `dbName` to change the table name for this
collection.
### afterSchemaInit
Runs after the Drizzle schema is built. You can use this hook to modify
the schema with features that aren't supported by Payload, or if you
want to add a column that you don't want to be in the Payload config.
To extend a table, Payload exposes `extendTable` utillity to the args.
You can refer to the [Drizzle
documentation](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/sql-schema-declaration).
The following example adds the `extra_integer_column` column and a
composite index on `country` and `city` columns.
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
import { index, integer } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
collections: [
{
slug: 'places',
fields: [
{
name: 'country',
type: 'text',
},
{
name: 'city',
type: 'text',
},
],
},
],
db: postgresAdapter({
afterSchemaInit: [
({ schema, extendTable, adapter }) => {
extendTable({
table: schema.tables.places,
columns: {
extraIntegerColumn: integer('extra_integer_column'),
},
extraConfig: (table) => ({
country_city_composite_index: index('country_city_composite_index').on(
table.country,
table.city,
),
}),
})
return schema
},
],
}),
})
```

version exists
- Draft - when the current version is a draft and no published versions
exist

Changes the `afterError` hook structure, adds tests / more docs.
Ensures that the `req.responseHeaders` property is respected in the
error handler.
**Breaking**
`afterError` now accepts an array of functions instead of a single
function:
```diff
- afterError: () => {...}
+ afterError: [() => {...}]
```
The args are changed to accept an object with the following properties:
| Argument | Description |
| ------------------- |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| **`error`** | The error that occurred. |
| **`context`** | Custom context passed between Hooks. [More
details](./context). |
| **`graphqlResult`** | The GraphQL result object, available if the hook
is executed within a GraphQL context. |
| **`req`** | The
[Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request)
object containing the currently authenticated `user` |
| **`collection`** | The [Collection](../configuration/collections) in
which this Hook is running against. This will be `undefined` if the hook
is executed from a non-collection endpoint or GraphQL. |
| **`result`** | The formatted error result object, available if the
hook is executed from a REST context. |
This PR addresses these issues with localized groups / tabs with
Postgres / SQLite:
- Array fields inside of localized groups. Fixes
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8322
- Select fields with `hasMany: true` inside of localized groups. Related
to 1, but still needed its own additional logic.
- Relationship (non-polymorphic / non has-many) inside of localized
groups. Previously, even just trying to define them in the config led to
a crash. Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8308
Ensures test coverage for localized groups.
**Breaking change**: ToolbarDropdown no longer receives
`groupKey={group.key}` and `items={group.items}` as props, but instead
`group={group}`
___
Similar to #8159, but in this case it allows you to disable an entire
dropdown menu, not just individual items in the dropdown.
This adds a new property to `ToolbarGroup` when used with `type:
'dropdown'`.
For example, if you add `isEnabled: () => false,` inside
`packages/richtext-lexical/src/features/shared/toolbar/textDropdownGroup.ts`
and run `pnpm dev fields`, this is what you'll see in the Lexical
editor:

This PR addresses around 500 TypeScript errors by enabling
strictNullChecks in the richtext-lexical package. In the process,
several bugs were identified and fixed.
In some cases, I applied non-null assertions where necessary, although
there may be room for further type refinement in the future. The focus
of this PR is to resolve the immediate issues without introducing
additional technical debt, rather than aiming for perfect type
definitions at this stage.

Previously, this wasn't valid in Postgres / SQLite:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'polymorphic-relationships',
where: {
polymorphic: {
equals: {
relationTo: 'movies',
value: movie.id,
},
},
},
})
```
Now it works and actually in more performant way than this:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'polymorphic-relationships',
where: {
and: [
{
'polymorphic.relationTo': {
equals: 'movies',
},
},
{
'polymorphic.value': {
equals: 'movies',
},
},
],
},
})
```
Why? Because with the object notation, the output SQL is: `movies_id =
1` - checks exactly 1 column in the `*_rels` table, while with the
separate query by `relationTo` and `value` we need to check against
_each_ possible relationship collection with OR.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7695
Previosuly, trying to append a new item to an array that contains
another array with localized items and enabled versions led to a unique
`_locale` and `_parent_id` error
```ts
{
name: 'nestedArrayLocalized',
type: 'array',
fields: [
{
type: 'array',
name: 'array',
fields: [
{
name: 'text',
type: 'text',
localized: true,
},
],
},
],
}
```
## Description
- Adds a new "join" field type to Payload and is supported by all database adapters
- The UI uses a table view for the new field
- `db-mongodb` changes relationships to be stored as ObjectIDs instead of strings (for now querying works using both types internally to the DB so no data migration should be necessary unless you're querying directly, see breaking changes for details
- Adds a reusable traverseFields utility to Payload to make it easier to work with nested fields, used internally and for plugin maintainers
```ts
export const Categories: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'categories',
fields: [
{
name: 'relatedPosts',
type: 'join',
collection: 'posts',
on: 'category',
}
]
}
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
All mongodb relationship and upload values will be stored as MongoDB ObjectIDs instead of strings going forward. If you have existing data and you are querying data directly, outside of Payload's APIs, you get different results. For example, a `contains` query will no longer works given a partial ID of a relationship since the ObjectID requires the whole identifier to work.

- Adjust stale lock tests to configure the duration down to 1 second and
await it to not lose any test coverage
- DB performance changes:
1. Switch to payload.db.find instead of payload.find for
checkDocumentLockStatus to avoid populating the user and other payload
find overhead
2. Add maxDepth: 1 to user relationship
3. Add index to global slug
Uses React `cache` to memoize a lot of the work that the Payload Admin
UI had to perform in parallel, in multiple places.
Specifically, we were running `auth` in three places:
1. `not-found.tsx` - for some reason this renders even if not used
2. `initPage.ts`
3. `RootLayout`
Now, a lot of expensive calculations only happen once and are memoized
per-request. 🎉
- Adds `overrideLock` flag to `update` & `delete` operations
- Instead of throwing an `APIError` (500) when trying to update / delete
a locked document - now throw a `Locked` (423) error status
Exposes `collectionSlugs` state from the `useListDrawer` hook to control
it outside of the hook. We can't use `collectionSlug` from the hook
props because it's memoized inside of the hook state.
```ts
const [
ListDrawer,
ListDrawerToggler,
{ collectionSlugs, setCollectionSlugs },
] = useListDrawer({
});
```

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8205
Adds `resetColumnsState` method to `useTableColumns` return
Example of a `BeforeList` component for column state reset:
```ts
'use client'
import { Pill, useTableColumns } from '@payloadcms/ui'
function ResetDefaultColumnsButton() {
const { resetColumnsState } = useTableColumns()
return <Pill onClick={resetColumnsState}>Reset to default columns</Pill>
}
export { ResetDefaultColumnsButton }
```
Additionally, fixes that `setActiveColumns` didn't respect the passed
order of columns and didn't update the UI immediately
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8280
Now, the result type of this operation:
```ts
const post = await payload.findByID({
collection: "posts",
id,
disableErrors: true
})
```
is `Post | null` instead of `Post` when `disableErrors: true` is passed
Adds test for the `disableErrors` property and docs.
Email bodies in the plugin form builder now support wildcards `{{*}}`
and `{{*:table}}` to export all the form submission data in key:value
pairs with the latter formatted as a table.
Emails also fallback to a global plugin configuration item and then to
the `defaultFromAddress` address in email transport config.
Closes#8051.
- The scrolling problem reported in the issue is solved with Monaco's
`alwaysConsumeMouseWheel` property.
- In addition to that, it is necessary to dynamically adjust the height
of the editor so that it fits its content and does not require
scrolling.
- Additionally, I disabled the `overviewRuler` which is the indicator
strip on the side (above the scrollbar) that makes no sense when there
is no scroll.
**Gotchas**
- Unfortunately, there is a bit of CLS since the editor doesn't know the
height of its content before rendering. In Lexical these things are
possible since it has a lifecycle that allows interaction before or
after rendering, but this is not the case with Monaco.
- I've noticed that sometimes when I press enter the letters in the
editor flicker or move with a small, rapid shake. Maybe it has to do
with the new height being calculated as an effect.

Continuation of #8243. Strongly types the `value` argument within
`field.validate` functions:
- Uses existing internal validation types for field `validate` property
- Exports additional validation types to cover `hasMany` fields
- Includes `null` and `undefined` values
## Description
Adds a new property to `collection` / `global` configs called
`lockDocuments`.
Set to `true` by default - the lock is automatically triggered when a
user begins editing a document within the Admin Panel and remains in
place until the user exits the editing view or the lock expires due to
inactivity.
Set to `false` to disable document locking entirely - i.e.
`lockDocuments: false`
You can pass an object to this property to configure the `duration` in
seconds, which defines how long the document remains locked without user
interaction. If no edits are made within the specified time (default:
300 seconds), the lock expires, allowing other users to edit / update or
delete the document.
```
lockDocuments: {
duration: 180, // 180 seconds or 3 minutes
}
```

Fixes querying using `in` operator by polymorphic relationship value.
The previous PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8191 didn't
handle the case when the incoming query value is an array and therefore
each item of the array can have a different type.
Ensures test coverage
Field validation functions currently do not type their `value` arg. This
is because the underlying `FieldBase` type breaks the type inferences
for these functions. The fix is to `Omit` the `validate` property from
this type before overriding it with our own, typed version for each
field.
Here's an example of the problem:
<img width="373" alt="Screenshot 2024-09-16 at 2 50 10 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a99e32fb-5645-4df6-82f2-0efab26b9831">
Here's an example of the fix:
<img width="363" alt="Screenshot 2024-09-16 at 3 59 42 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f83909bc-2169-4378-b5a7-5cca78b6ad64">
This PR also fixes the `hasMany` type inferences (shown above), where
the `value` type changes to an array when this property is set. Here's a
minimal example of the solution:
```ts
export type NumberField = {
type: 'number'
} & (
| {
hasMany: true
validate?: Validate<number[], unknown, unknown, NumberField>
}
| {
hasMany?: false | undefined
validate?: Validate<number, unknown, unknown, NumberField>
}
)
```
```ts
{
type: 'text',
validate: (value) => '' // value is `string`
},
{
type: 'text',
hasMany: true,
validate: (value) => '' // value is `string[]`
}
```
Disclaimer: in order for these types to properly infer their values,
`strictNullChecks: true` must be set in your `tsconfig.json`. This is
_not_ currently set in the Payload Monorepo, but consuming apps _should_
have this defined in order properly infer these types.
This PR also adds stronger types for misc. untyped values such as the
`point` field, etc.
## Description
Adds `virtual` property to the fields config. Providing `true`
completely disables the field in the DB, which is useful for [Virtual
Fields](https://payloadcms.com/blog/learn-how-virtual-fields-can-help-solve-common-cms-challenges)
Disables abillity to query by a field with `virtual: true`.
Currently, they bloat the DB with unused tables / columns, which may as
well introduce additional joins.

The `generateTitle`, `generateDescription`, `generateURL`, and
`generateImage` functions in the SEO Plugin do not currently receive any
args representing the document's entity. This means that within these
functions, it is currently not possible to discern the _type_ of
document you are working with, i.e. a collection or global. The
underlying problem here was that the request made to execute these
functions was threading through `slug` as `undefined`. This is because
the `DocumentInfoProvider` was failing to thread this prop through
context as the types suggest. Now, these functions receive their
respective `collectionConfig` and `globalConfig`.
```ts
import type { GenerateTitle } from '@payloadcms/plugin-seo/types'
import type { Page } from '@/payload-types'
const generateTitle: GenerateTitle<Page> = ({
doc,
collectionConfig,
globalConfig,
}) => {
return `Website.com — ${doc?.title}`
}
```
Previously, this worked with MongoDB but failed with Postgres / SQLite
when the `slug` field has both `localized: true` and `unique: true`.
```ts
await payload.create({
collection: "posts",
locale: "en",
data: {
slug: "my-post"
}
})
await payload.create({
collection: "posts",
locale: "de",
data: {
slug: "my-post"
}
})
```
Now, we build unique constraints and indexes in combination with the
_locale column. This should also improve query performance for fields
with both index: true and localized: true.
### Migration steps (Postgres/SQLite only)
This change updates the database schema and requires a migration (if you
have any localized fields). To apply it, run the following commands:
```sh
pnpm payload migration:create locale_unique_indexes
pnpm payload migrate
```
Note that if you use `db.push: true` which is a default, you don't have
to run `pnpm payload migrate` in the development mode, only in the
production, as Payload automatically pushes the schema to your DB with
it.
Fixes a case where in relational DBs, you can't duplicate documents if
you have localized arrays within unnamed tabs.
The `beforeDuplicate` hooks were not being run for fields within unnamed
tabs.
This PR fixes querying by a relationship field that has custom IDs in
`relationTo` with different types.
Now, in this case, we do cast the ID value in the database.
Example of the config / int test that reproduced the issue:
```ts
{
slug: 'posts-a',
fields: [],
},
{
slug: 'posts-b',
fields: [],
},
{
slug: 'posts-custom-id',
fields: [{ name: 'id', type: 'text' }],
},
{
slug: 'roots',
fields: [
{
name: 'rel',
relationTo: ['posts-a', 'posts-b', 'posts-custom-id'],
type: 'relationship',
},
],
},
```
```ts
const postA = await payload.create({ collection: 'posts-a', data: {} })
const postB = await payload.create({ collection: 'posts-b', data: {} })
const postC = await payload.create({
collection: 'posts-custom-id',
data: { id: crypto.randomUUID() },
})
const root_1 = await payload.create({
collection: 'roots',
data: {
rel: {
value: postC.id,
relationTo: 'posts-custom-id',
},
},
})
const res_1 = await payload.find({
collection: 'roots',
where: {
'rel.value': { equals: postC.id },
},
})
// COALESCE types integer and character varying cannot be matched
expect(res_1.totalDocs).toBe(1)
```

In order to have beta releases properly trigger GitHub Actions'
`published` event in our `post-release` workflow, this job must exist on
the branch the release is on.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8111 and
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8113
Before: 132 dependencies
After: 123 dependencies
This PR also contains a small performance optimization during telemetry
startup: By using the async `fs.promises.readFile` instead of
`readFileSync` we're not blocking the entire thread anymore and are
allowing other stuff to happen while the file is being read.
Also, in our dependency checker, this moves some variables out of loops,
to the module scope, as they only need to be calculated once.
We have to pin file-type to 19.3.0 and cannot upgrade it further (latest
is 19.5.0). See reasoning in
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8111#issuecomment-2348119533
Fixes an issue where duplicating documents in Postgres / SQLite would
crash because of a foreign key constraint / unique ID issue when you
have nested arrays / blocks within localized arrays / blocks.
We now run `beforeDuplicate` against all locales prior to
`beforeValidate` and `beforeChange` hooks.
This PR also fixes a series of issues in Postgres / SQLite where you
have localized groups / named tabs, and then arrays / blocks within the
localized groups / named tabs.
The SEO Plugin defines duplicative translations in both TS and JSON,
even though JSON translations are no longer in use. Translations were
still being maintained in JSON, despite this fact. This PR removes all
JSON files, replacing them with TS, and improving file organization and
overall types.
Ajv 8.14.0 => 8.17.1
- Bundle size: 119.6kB => 111kB
- Dependencies: 5 => 4
- Gets rid of dependency on `punycode`. Will help with the annoying
deprecated module console warning spam
This also upgrades TypeScript to 5.6.2 in our monorepo. The most
type-relevant packages are updated as well, e.g. ts-essentials and
@types/node
Resolves#8172
## Summary
This PR addresses an issue where the`id` field in the GraphQL schema is
incorrectly marked as `nullable`. The change ensures that the `id` field
is set to non-nullable, which aligns with the expectation that every
resource should have a non-nullable ID, especially when using UUIDs as
primary keys.
### Changes
- Fix: Set the `id` field type to `GraphQLNonNull` for consistency in
the GraphQL schema.
This PR changes the type of `selected` returned from the `useSelection`
hook from the `SelectionProvider` from an object to a Map.
This fixes a bug where in some situations we lose the type of the ID
which can break data entry when using postgres, due to keys being cast
to strings inside of objects which doesn't happen when using a Map.
This PR also fixes a CSS bug with the checkbox when it should be
partially selected.
```ts
// before
selected: Record<number | string, boolean>
// after
selected: Map<number | string, boolean>
```
This means you now need to read the data differently than before.
```ts
// before
Object.entries(selected).forEach(([key, value]) => {
// do something
})
// after
for (const [key, value] of selected) {
// do something
}
```
Although the `<FieldLabel />` component receives a `field` prop, it does
not use this prop to extract the `label` from the field. This is
currently only an issue when rendering this component directly, such as
within `admin.components.Label`. The label simply won't appear unless
explicitly provided, despite it being passed as `field.label`. This is
not an issue when rendering field components themselves, because they
properly thread this value through as a top-level prop.
Here's an example of the issue:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import { FieldLabel } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export const MyCustomLabelComponent: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return (
<FieldLabel
field={clientField}
label={clientField.label} // this should not be needed!
/>
)
}
```
Here is the end result:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import { FieldLabel } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export const MyCustomLabelComponent: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <FieldLabel field={clientField} />
}
```
Fixes a type error when using server components for field labels,
descriptions, and errors. The `clientField` prop will always exist, so
the types just need to be reflective of this. Here's an example:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldServerLabelComponent } from 'payload'
import { FieldLabel } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerFieldLabelComponent: TextFieldServerLabelComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <FieldLabel field={clientField} /> // `TextFieldClientWithoutType | undefined` is not assignable to type `ClientFieldWithoutType`
}
```

## Description
### TL;DR:
It's currently not possible to render our field components from a server
component because their `field` prop is the original field config, not
the _client_ config which our components require. Currently, the `field`
prop passed into custom fields changes type depending on whether it's a
server or client component, leaving server components without any access
to the client field config or mechanism to acquire it.
This PR passes the client config to all server field components through
a new `clientField` prop. This allows the following in a server
component, which is very similar to how client field components
currently work:
Server component:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
export const MyCustomServerField: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <TextField field={clientField} />
}
```
Client component:
```tsx
'use client'
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
export const MyCustomClientField: TextFieldClientComponent = ({ field }) => {
return <TextField field={field} />
}
```
### Full Background
If you have a custom field component, and it's a server component, there
is currently no way to pass the field prop into Payload's client-side
field components.
Here's an example of the problem:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = (props) => {
const { field } = props
return (
<TextField field={field} /> // This is not possible
)
}
```
The config needs to be transformed into a client config, however,
because of the sheer number of hard-to-find arguments that the
`createClientField` requires, we cannot use it in its raw form.
Here is another example of the problem:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import { createClientField } from '@payloadcms/ui/utilities/createClientField'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ createClientField }) => {
const clientField = createClientField({...}) // Not a good option bc it requires many hard-to-find args
return (
<TextField field={clientField} />
)
}
```
Theoretically, we could preformat a `createFieldConfig` function so it
can simply be called without arguments:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ createClientField }) => {
return <TextField field={createClientField()} />
}
```
But this means the field config would be evaluated twice unnecessarily,
including label functions, etc.
The right way to fix this is to simply pass the client config to server
components through a new `clientField` prop:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <TextField field={clientField} />
}
```

## Description
Currently, you cannot create, delete, or duplicate documents within the
document drawer directly. To create a document within a relationship
field, for example, you must first navigate to the parent field and open
the "create new" drawer. Similarly (but worse), to duplicate or delete a
document, you must _navigate to the parent document to perform these
actions_ which is incredibly disruptive to the content editing workflow.
This becomes especially apparent within the relationship field where you
can edit documents inline, but cannot duplicate or delete them. This PR
supports all document-level actions within the document drawer so that
these actions can be performed on-the-fly without navigating away.
Inline duplication flow on a polymorphic "hasOne" relationship:

Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7952
Adds support for `in` and `not_in` operator against JSON field filters.
The following queries are now valid in postgres as well, previously it
only worked in mongo
```ts
await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
'data.value': {
in: ['12', '13', '14'],
},
},
context: {
disable: true,
},
})
await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
'data.value': {
not_in: ['12', '13', '14'],
},
},
context: {
disable: true,
},
})
```
The `BlockField` type is not representative of the underlying "blocks"
field type, which is plural, i.e. `BlocksField`. This is a semantic
change that will better align the type with the field.
## Breaking Changes
Types related to the `blocks` field have change names. If you were using
the `BlockField` or related types in your own applications, simply
change the import name to be plural and instead of singular.
Old (singular):
```ts
import type {
BlockField,
BlockFieldClient,
BlockFieldValidation,
BlockFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlockFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlockFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlockFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlockFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
New (plural):
```ts
import type {
BlocksField,
BlocksFieldClient,
BlocksFieldValidation,
BlocksFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
## Description
Fixes the bug I reported in
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8139 where the casing of
the defined value (camelCase) of Vercel's Postgres database adapter does
not match the casing of the package (kebab-case).
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7867
Problem: currently, setting an
```ts
admin: {
width: '30%'
}
```
does not work for fields inside a row or similar (group, array etc.)
Solution: when we render the field, we set a CSS variable
`--field-width` with the value of `admin.width`. This allows us to
calculate the correct width for a field in CSS by doing `flex: 0 1
var(--field-width);`
It also allows us to properly handle `gap` with `flex-wrap: wrap;`
Notes: added playwright tests to ensure widths are correctly rendered

unused `fileHandler` property from there, which isn't defined in the
`FetchAPIFileUploadOptions` type.

## Description
Fixes#8038, which was broken in #7817
I'm not entirely sure if this change violates the original intent of the
"base" utility, which from what I understand was introduced for
scalability reasons. Either way, I think it's a good idea to keep the
indent at 40px all the time.
The reason for this is that browsers use 40px as the indentation setting
for lists, and using that setting the indented paragraphs and headings
match the lists. See https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/4025

## Description
Currently, there is no way of typing custom server field components.
This is because internally, all field components are client components,
and so these were never fully typed. For example, the docs currently
indicate for all custom fields to be typed in this way:
Old:
```tsx
export const MyClientTextFieldComponent: React.FC<TextFieldProps>
```
But if your component is a server component, you will never receive the
fully typed `field` prop, `payload` prop, etc. unless you've typed that
yourself using some of the underlying utilities. So to fix this, every
field now explicitly exports a type for each environment:
New:
- Client component:
```tsx
'use client'
export const MyClientTextFieldComponent: TextFieldClientComponent
```
- Server component:
```tsx
export const MyServerTextFieldComponent: TextFieldServerComponent
```
This pattern applies to every field type, where the field name is
prepended onto the component type.
```ts
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
TextareaFieldClientComponent,
TextareaFieldServerComponent,
TextareaFieldClientProps,
TextareaFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each field type
} from 'payload'
```
## BREAKING CHANGES
We are no longer exporting `TextFieldProps` etc. for each field type.
Instead, we now export props for each client/server environment
explicitly. If you were previously importing one of these types into
your custom component, simply change the import name to reflect your
environment.
Old:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldProps } from 'payload'
```
New:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldClientProps, TextFieldServerProps } from 'payload'
```

## Description
By default all api requests are creating transactions due to the
authentication stategy. This change removes transactions for auth and
login requests. This should only happen when the database needs to make
changes in which case the auth strategy or login lockout updates will
invoke their own transactions still.
This should improve performance without any sacrifice to database
consistency.

## Description
Currently, the relationship field's _value(s)_ each render and controls
its own document drawer. This has led to `hasMany` relationships
processing a potentially large number of drawers unnecessarily. But the
real problem is when attempting to perform side-effects as a result of a
drawer action. Currently, when you change the value of a relationship
field, all drawers within are (rightfully) unmounted because the
component representing the value was itself unmounted. This meant that
you could not update the title of a document, for example, then update
the underlying field's value, without also closing the document drawer
outright. This is needed in order to support things like creating and
duplicating documents within document drawers (#7679).

Previously, on some machines this command:
`pnpx create-payload-app@beta app` created a project using `npm`,
instead of `pnpm`, the same with `yarn`.
Also, the way we detected the package manager was always prioritizing
`pnpm`, even if they executed the command with `yarn` / `npm`. Now we
are relying only on from which package manager user executed
`create-payload-app`.
The code for detection is grabbed from create-next-app

## Description
Reduces the number of client-side requests made by the relationship
field component, and fixes the visual "blink" of the field's value on
initial load. Does so through a new `useIgnoredEffect` hook that allows
this component's effects to be precisely triggered based on whether a
only _subset_ of its dependencies have changed, which looks something
like this:
```tsx
// ...
useIgnoredEffect(() => {
// Do something
}, [deps], [ignoredDeps])
```
"Ignored deps" are still treated as normal dependencies of the
underlying `useEffect` hook, but they do not cause the provided function
to execute. This is useful if you have a list of dependencies that
change often, but need to scope your effect's logic to explicit
dependencies within that list. This is a typical pattern in React using
refs, just standardized within a reusable hook.
This significantly reduces the overall number of re-renders and
duplicative API requests within the relationship field because the
`useEffect` hooks that control the fetching of these related documents
were running unnecessarily often. In the future, we really ought to
leverage the `RelationshipProvider` used in the List View so that we can
also reduce the number of duplicative requests across _unrelated fields_
within the same document.

We noticed that we can bring functions down to the client directly
without having to wrap them in a component first. This greatly
simplifies the loading of all lexical client components
**BREAKING:**
- `createClientComponent` is no longer exported as it's not needed
anymore
- The exported `ClientComponentProps` type has been renamed to
`BaseClientFeatureProps`.
- The order of arguments in `sanitizeClientEditorConfig` has changed
Removes `loggerOptions` and `loggerDestination` from `initOptions`
(these were not able to be used anyway).
Creates new `logger` property on the Payload config.
```ts
// Logger options only
logger: {
level: 'info',
}
// Logger options with destination stream
logger: {
options: {
level: 'info',
},
destination: process.stdout
},
// Logger instance
logger: pino({ name: 'my-logger' })
```
Now enforcing curly brackets on all if statements. Includes auto-fixer.
```ts
// ❌ Bad
if (foo) foo++;
// ✅ Good
if (foo) {
foo++;
}
```
Note: this did not lint the `drizzle` package or any `db-*` packages.
This will be done in the future.
## Description
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.
Up until this point, Payload would _allow_ you to nest a localized field
within another localized field, and this might have worked in MongoDB
but it will throw errors in Postgres.
Now, Payload will automatically remove the `localized: true` property
from sub-fields within `sanitizeFields` if a parent field is localized.
This could potentially be a breaking change if you have a configuration
with MongoDB that nests localized fields within localized fields.
## Migrating
You probably only need to migrate if you are using MongoDB, as there,
you may not have noticed any problems. But in Postgres or SQLite, this
would have caused issues so it's unlikely that you've made it too far
without experiencing issues due to a nested localized fields config.
In the event you would like to keep existing data in this fashion, we
have added a `compatibility.allowLocalizedWithinLocalized` flag to the
Payload config, which you can set to `true`, and Payload will then
disable this new sanitization step.
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.
Move `ui` and `translations` from peerDeps into deps for a few packages.
Users should not have to install these directly unless they are making
customizations.

The enabledCollections and disabledCollections properties of the
RelationshipFeature were not being sent to the client and therefore did
not have the expected effect.
Now those 2 properties are sent to the client via the
`clientFeatureProps` property.
## Description
In Postgres, localized blocks or arrays that contain other array / block
/ relationship fields were not properly storing locales in the database.
Now they are! Need to check a few things yet:
- Ensure test coverage is sufficient
- Test localized array, with non-localized array inside of it
- Test localized block with relationship field within it
- Ensure `_rels` table gets the `locale` column added if a single
non-localized relationship exists within a localized array / block
Fixes step 6 as identified in #7805
## Description
Fixes a race condition where you could switch locales and have autosave
trigger with old locale data.
By adding the `key` to the `Document` component, we will ensure that the
entire `Document` will be un-mounted and re-mounted between locale
switches.
Fixes:
- issue with publish button double saving on keyboard command
- versions diffs not showing if fields are tabs
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7860
- navigation on versions not working for perPage and pagination
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7477
This simplifies validation to the point where it only errors on spaces.
Actual validation is then used in beforeChange, which then automatically
url encodes the input if it doesn't pass
`getPayloadHMR`'s arg type was accepting unnecessary args that did not
do anything. This was leading to confusion.

This fixes that type in the website template:
3d86bf1974/templates/website/src/app/components/RichText/serialize.tsx (L24)
Now, JsonObject still ensures that only objects can be passed, but it's
weak enough to allow non-dynamic types like the ones we generate in
payload-types.
The "JSON" part of this type has no meaning anymore, as it does allow
objects with functions now. However, we can still use it to signal to
the user that this should be JSON-serializable. It's more clear than
just using Record<string, unknown>
Dedicated adapter for Vercel Postgres
- Uses the `@vercel/postgres` package under the hood.
- No `pg` dependency, speeds up invocation
- Includes refactoring all base postgres functionality into a
`BasePostgresAdapter` type, which will ease implementation of [other
adapters supported by
drizzle-orm](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/get-started-postgresql)
## Usage
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { vercelPostgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-vercel-postgres'
export default buildConfig({
db: vercelPostgresAdapter({
pool: {
connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URI,
},
}),
// ...rest of config
})
```
### Automatic Connection String Detection
Have Vercel automatically detect from environment variable (typically
`process.env.POSTGRES_URL`)
```ts
export default buildConfig({
db: postgresAdapter(),
// ...rest of config
})
```
Supports `hasMany` upload fields, similar to how `hasMany` works in
other fields, i.e.:
```ts
{
type: 'upload',
relationTo: 'media',
hasMany: true
}
```

## Description
Closes#7784 by properly handling custom collection description
components via `admin.components.Description`. This component was
incorrectly added to the `admin.components.edit` key, and also was never
handled on the front-end. This was especially misleading because the
client-side config had a duplicative key in the proper position.
## Breaking Changes
This PR is only labeled as a breaking change because the key has changed
position within the config. If you were previously defining a custom
description component on a collection, simply move it into the correct
position:
Old:
```ts
{
admin: {
components: {
edit: {
Description: ''
}
}
}
}
```
New:
```ts
{
admin: {
components: {
Description: ''
}
}
}

## Description
Threads the field config to all "field subcomponents" through props,
i.e. field label, description, error, etc. This way, the field config
that controls any particular component is easily accessible and strongly
typed, i.e. `props.field.maxLength`. This is true for both server and
client components, whose server-side props are now also contextually
typed. This behavior was temporarily removed in #7474 due to bloating
HTML, but has since been resolved in #7620. This PR also makes
significant improvements to component types by exporting explicit types
for _every component of every field_, each with its own client/server
variation. Now, a custom component can look something like this:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const CustomLabel: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = (props) => {
return (
<div>{`The max length of this field is: ${props?.field?.maxLength}`}</div>
)
}
```
The following types are now available:
```ts
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
// ...and so one for each field
} from 'payload'
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
In order to strictly type these components, a few breaking changes have
been made _solely to type definitions_. This only effects you if you are
heavily using custom components.
Old
```ts
import type { ErrorComponent, LabelComponent, DescriptionComponent } from 'payload'
```
New:
```ts
import type {
FieldErrorClientComponent,
FieldErrorServerComponent,
FieldLabelClientComponent,
FieldLabelServerComponent,
FieldDescriptionClientComponent,
FieldDescriptionServerComponent,
// Note: these are the generic, underlying types of the more stricter types described above ^
// For example, you should use the type that is explicit for your particular field and environment
// i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent` and not simply `FieldLabelClientComponent`
} from 'payload'

This noticeably improves performance in the admin panel, for example
when there are multiple richtext editors on one page (& likely
performance in other areas too, though I mainly tested rich text).
The babel plugin currently only optimizes files with a 'use client'
directive at the top - thus we have to make sure to add use client
wherever possible, even if it's imported by a parent client component.
There's one single component that broke when it was compiled using the
React compiler (it stopped being reactive and failed one of our admin
e2e tests):

Example: richText editor 1 and 2 both have UploadFeature. richText
editor 1 calls UploadFeature() with custom fields, richText editor 2
calls UploadFeature() with NO custom fields. Before this PR, richText
editor 1 would not have had any custom fields, as richText editor 2 will
override the feature object (specifically its props).

Old blank templates had invalid pregenerated importMap. Would error for
fresh apps from create-payload-app. And website was on an old version
riddled with bugs
Also a nice performance improvement. The list drawer was previously
fetching data with depth 1. This will cause the relationship cell to
break, as it expects the relationship data to be a string/number, not a
populated object with the id inside.
Now, it fetches using depth 0 - same as the normal list view

If it's undefined/null => Fallback Component may be rendered
If it's false => No component should be rendered - as if an empty
component was passed in
This ensures that the user does not have to install `@payloadcms/ui`
anymore, which previously exported an empty component to be used in
component paths
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7677
- Payload bin scripts were not properly working on windows
- Use tsx by default instead of swc, as swc does not handle next/cache
imports without the .js at the end
- Support other node runtimes through --disable-transpile flag
## Description
We've since lost the ability to override the document view at the
root-level. This was a feature that made it possible to override _the
entire document routing/view structure_, including the document
header/tabs and all nested routes within, i.e. the API route/view, the
Live Preview route/view, etc. This is distinct from the "default" edit
view, which _only_ targets the component rendered within the "edit" tab.
This regression was introduced when types were simplified down to better
support "component paths" here: #7620. The `default` key was incorrectly
used as the "root" view override. To continue to support stricter types
_and_ root view overrides, a new `root` key has been added to the
`views` config.
You were previously able to do this:
```tsx
import { MyComponent } from './MyComponent.js'
export const MyCollection = {
// ...
admin: {
views: {
Edit: MyComponent
}
}
}
```
This is now done like this:
```tsx
export const MyCollection = {
// ...
admin: {
views: {
edit: {
root: {
Component: './path-to-my-component.js'
}
}
}
}
}
```
Some of the documentation was also incorrect according to the new
component paths API.

## Type of change
- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
- [x] This change requires a documentation update
## Checklist:
- [x] Existing test suite passes locally with my changes
- [x] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation
- regenerates the lockfile
- upgrades pnpm from v8 to v9.7.0 minimum
- ensures playwright does not import payload config. Even after our
importmap revamp that made the payload config server-only / node-safe, I
was getting these `Error: Invariant: AsyncLocalStorage accessed in
runtime where it is not available` errors in combination with pnpm v9
and lockfile regeneration.
This does not happen with pnpm v8, however I'm still blaming playwright
for this, as this does not happen in dev and we've had this specific
error with playwright in the past when we were importing the payload
config. Perhaps it's related to both playwright and the future Next.js
process importing the same config file, and not related to the config
file containing client-side React code.
Making sure playwright doesn't import the config fixed it (it was
importing it through the import map generation). The import map
generation is now run in a separate process, and playwright simply waits
for it
- One positive thing: this pr fixes a bunch of typescript errors with
react-select components. We got those errors because react-select types
are not compatible with react 19. lockfile regeneration fixed that (not
related to pnpm v9) - probably because we were installing mismatching
react versions (I saw both `fb9a90fa48-20240614` and `06d0b89e-20240801`
in our lockfile). I have thus removed the caret for react and react-dom
in our package.json - now it's consistent
This lowers the module count by 31 modules
BREAKING: Migration-related lexical modules are now exported from
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/migrate` instead of
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical`
Allow a compound index to be used for upload collections via a
`filenameCompoundIndex` field. Previously, `filename` was always treated
as unique.
Usage:
```ts
{
slug: 'upload-field',
upload: {
// Slugs to include in compound index
filenameCompoundIndex: ['filename', 'alt'],
},
}
```
This PR makes three major changes to the codebase:
1. [Component Paths](#component-paths)
Instead of importing custom components into your config directly, they
are now defined as file paths and rendered only when needed. That way
the Payload config will be significantly more lightweight, and ensures
that the Payload config is 100% server-only and Node-safe. Related
discussion: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/6938
2. [Client Config](#client-config)
Deprecates the component map by merging its logic into the client
config. The main goal of this change is for performance and
simplification. There was no need to deeply iterate over the Payload
config twice, once for the component map, and another for the client
config. Instead, we can do everything in the client config one time.
This has also dramatically simplified the client side prop drilling
through the UI library. Now, all components can share the same client
config which matches the exact shape of their Payload config (with the
exception of non-serializable props and mapped custom components).
3. [Custom client component are no longer
server-rendered](#custom-client-components-are-no-longer-server-rendered)
Previously, custom components would be server-rendered, no matter if
they are server or client components. Now, only server components are
rendered on the server. Client components are automatically detected,
and simply get passed through as `MappedComponent` to be rendered fully
client-side.
## Component Paths
Instead of importing custom components into your config directly, they
are now defined as file paths and rendered only when needed. That way
the Payload config will be significantly more lightweight, and ensures
that the Payload config is 100% server-only and Node-safe. Related
discussion: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/6938
In order to reference any custom components in the Payload config, you
now have to specify a string path to the component instead of importing
it.
Old:
```ts
import { MyComponent2} from './MyComponent2.js'
admin: {
components: {
Label: MyComponent2
},
},
```
New:
```ts
admin: {
components: {
Label: '/collections/Posts/MyComponent2.js#MyComponent2', // <= has to be a relative path based on a baseDir configured in the Payload config - NOT relative based on the importing file
},
},
```
### Local API within Next.js routes
Previously, if you used the Payload Local API within Next.js pages, all
the client-side modules are being added to the bundle for that specific
page, even if you only need server-side functionality.
This `/test` route, which uses the Payload local API, was previously 460
kb. It is now down to 91 kb and does not bundle the Payload client-side
admin panel anymore.
All tests done
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/tree/feat/path-test)
with beta.67/PR, db-mongodb and default richtext-lexical:
**dev /admin before:**

**dev /admin after:**

---
**dev /test before:**

**dev /test after:**

---
**build before:**

**build after::**

### Usage of the Payload Local API / config outside of Next.js
This will make it a lot easier to use the Payload config / local API in
other, server-side contexts. Previously, you might encounter errors due
to client files (like .scss files) not being allowed to be imported.
## Client Config
Deprecates the component map by merging its logic into the client
config. The main goal of this change is for performance and
simplification. There was no need to deeply iterate over the Payload
config twice, once for the component map, and another for the client
config. Instead, we can do everything in the client config one time.
This has also dramatically simplified the client side prop drilling
through the UI library. Now, all components can share the same client
config which matches the exact shape of their Payload config (with the
exception of non-serializable props and mapped custom components).
This is breaking change. The `useComponentMap` hook no longer exists,
and most component props have changed (for the better):
```ts
const { componentMap } = useComponentMap() // old
const { config } = useConfig() // new
```
The `useConfig` hook has also changed in shape, `config` is now a
property _within_ the context obj:
```ts
const config = useConfig() // old
const { config } = useConfig() // new
```
## Custom Client Components are no longer server rendered
Previously, custom components would be server-rendered, no matter if
they are server or client components. Now, only server components are
rendered on the server. Client components are automatically detected,
and simply get passed through as `MappedComponent` to be rendered fully
client-side.
The benefit of this change:
Custom client components can now receive props. Previously, the only way
for them to receive dynamic props from a parent client component was to
use hooks, e.g. `useFieldProps()`. Now, we do have the option of passing
in props to the custom components directly, if they are client
components. This will be simpler than having to look for the correct
hook.
This makes rendering them on the client a little bit more complex, as
you now have to check if that component is a server component (=>
already has been rendered) or a client component (=> not rendered yet,
has to be rendered here). However, this added complexity has been
alleviated through the easy-to-use `<RenderMappedComponent />` helper.
This helper now also handles rendering arrays of custom components (e.g.
beforeList, beforeLogin ...), which actually makes rendering custom
components easier in some cases.
## Misc improvements
This PR includes misc, breaking changes. For example, we previously
allowed unions between components and config object for the same
property. E.g. for the custom view property, you were allowed to pass in
a custom component or an object with other properties, alongside a
custom component.
Those union types are now gone. You can now either pass an object, or a
component. The previous `{ View: MyViewComponent}` is now `{ View: {
Component: MyViewComponent} }` or `{ View: { Default: { Component:
MyViewComponent} } }`.
This dramatically simplifies the way we read & process those properties,
especially in buildComponentMap. We can now simply check for the
existence of one specific property, which always has to be a component,
instead of running cursed runtime checks on a shared union property
which could contain a component, but could also contain functions or
objects.

Fixes#7492
In order to run createMigration, we need to read in the previous
snapshot file if one exists. When that snapshot was generated from an
older version of drizzle-kit, we have to first migrate it up match the
latest version for drizzle to generate the new migration. This change
adds in the call to check the version and migrate the snapshot if
needed.

permissions as the user can be set from props. Permissions can be
initialized from props, but still need to be hydrated for some pages as
access control can be specific to docs/lists etc.
**BREAKING CHANGE**
- Renames exported `HydrateClientUser` to `HydrateAuthProvider`
We are now bumping up the Next canary version to `15.0.0-canary.104` and
`react` and `react-dom` to `^19.0.0-rc-06d0b89e-20240801`.
Your new dependencies should look like this:
```
"next": "15.0.0-canary.104",
"react": "^19.0.0-rc-06d0b89e-20240801",
"react-dom": "^19.0.0-rc-06d0b89e-20240801",
```

LivePreview data was stale if the user entered data while the socket
connection was being established. This change ensures fresh data is
fetched after the connection is established.
This is easy to see when turning on 4G connection and in CI, where it is
especially slow.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7495
When the Upload HTML Converter was called from the local API, the upload
document did not populate properly due to overrideAccess not being
passed through to the dataloader. This PR also adds new properties to
the afterRead field hook, so that these can be used in the lexical html
field.
Reproduction here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/chore/reproduce-html-converter-issue
**BREAKING:** If you define your own, custom lexical HTML Converters
that have sub-nodes, or if you directly call the
`convertLexicalNodesToHTML` function anywhere, you now need to pass
through the `showHiddenFields`, draft and `overrideAccess` props to the
`convertLexicalNodesToHTML` function. These are available in the
arguments of your HTML Converter function

Now email and username fields are rendered with the RenderFields
component, making them behave similarly to other fields. They now appear
and can respect doc permissions, readOnly settings, etc.
This PR
- upgrades lexical and ports all bug fixes from the playground over
- adds table action buttons. When hovering the edges of the table,
buttons pop up to easily add a new table column or row
- adds an html converter for the table feature
- makes the placeholder shown in the editor when no text is present
accessible
**BREAKING:** This upgrades lexical from 0.16.1 to 0.17.0. If you have
any lexical packages installed in your project, please update them
accordingly. Additionally, if you depend on the lexical APIs, please

## Description
Fixes#7354
Since the `defaultIDType` for IDs in `postgres` are of type `number` -
the `contains` operator should be available in the filter options.
This PR checks the `defaultIDType` of ID and properly outputs the
correct component type for IDs
I.e if ID is of type `number` - the filter operators for ID should
correspond to the the operators of type number as well
The `contains` operator only belongs on fields of type string, aka of
component type `text`

## Description
- Updates admin UI with more condensed spacing throughout.
- Improves hover states and read-only states for various components.
- Removes the `Merriweather` font from `next/font` and replaces with
stack of system serif fonts and fallbacks (Georgia, etc). Closes#7257
## BREAKING CHANGES
- Custom components and styling that don't utilize Payload's CSS/SCSS
variables may need adjustments to match the updated styling.
- If you are using the `Merriweather` font, you will need to manually
configure `next/font` in your own project.

fix#4990 (v3)
## Description
Expose
[useTableColumns](b160686fff/packages/ui/src/elements/TableColumns/index.tsx (L25))
hook from client exported members of the ui packages.
The use of this hook, covered the case of custom ListView creation which
was not possible due to the lack of possibility to select a file if we
were in the "list-draw" view.
With `useTableColumns` we can execute the `onClick` defined in
`TableColumnsProvider` witch allows the selection on the clicked file.
b160686fff/packages/ui/src/elements/ListDrawer/DrawerContent.tsx (L290-L296)
## Use case
CustomListView.tsx:
```ts
const CustomListView = () => {
// ...
const tableColumns = useTableColumns()
const handleItemClicked = (doc) => {
const onClick = tableColumns.columns[0].cellProps?.onClick
if (typeof onClick === 'function') {
// we are in "list-drawer" view, execute the onClick function
onClick({
cellData: undefined,
collectionSlug: doc,
rowData: doc,
})
} else {
// we are in "collection-admin" view, push the new route with next/navigation
void router.push(`${collectionSlug}/${doc.id}`)
}
}
return <div className={"list"}>
{data.docs?.length > 0 && (
<RelationshipProvider>
{docs.map((e, i) => (
<div className={"item"} key={i} onClick={() => handleItemClicked(e)}>
// ...
</div>
))}
</RelationshipProvider>
)}
</div>
}
```
This video shows the click of a file inside a CustomListView, in the
case of an "admin-collection" view then a "list-drawer" view.

## Description
Prior to this change, the `defaultValue` for fields have only been used
in the application layer of Payload. With this change, you get the added
benefit of having the database columns get the default also. This is
especially helpful when adding new columns to postgres with existing
data to avoid needing to write complex migrations. In MongoDB this
change applies the default to the Mongoose model which is useful when
calling payload.db.create() directly.
This only works for statically defined values.

Fixes the types for validate functions so that internal validation
functions can be re-used
Currently this has a type error
```ts
validate: (value, args) => {
return text(value, args)
},
```
Fixes#7402
This fixes a regression from changes to the postgres migration template
that were incorrect. It also fixes other type errors for
`payload.db.drizzle` which needed to be declared for postgres to avoid
confusing it with Libsql for SQLite.
## Description
Currently, there is no way to read field props from within a custom
field component, i.e. `admin.components.Description`. For example, if
you set `maxLength: 100` on your field, your custom description
component cannot read it from `props.maxLength` or any other methods.
Because these components are rendered on the server, there is also no
way of using `admin.component.Field` to inject custom props yourself,
either. To support this, we can simply pass the base component props
into these components on the server, as expected. This has also led to
custom field component props becoming more strictly typed within the
config.
This change is considered breaking only because the types have changed.
This only affects you if you were previously importing the following
types into your own custom components. To migrate, simply change the
import paths for that type.
Old:
```ts
import type {
ArrayFieldProps,
ReducedBlock,
BlocksFieldProps,
CheckboxFieldProps,
CodeFieldProps,
CollapsibleFieldProps,
DateFieldProps,
EmailFieldProps,
GroupFieldProps,
HiddenFieldProps,
JSONFieldProps,
NumberFieldProps,
PointFieldProps,
RadioFieldProps,
RelationshipFieldProps,
RichTextComponentProps,
RowFieldProps,
SelectFieldProps,
TabsFieldProps,
TextFieldProps,
TextareaFieldProps,
UploadFieldProps,
ErrorProps,
FormFieldBase,
FieldComponentProps,
FieldMap,
MappedField,
MappedTab,
ReducedBlock,
} from '@payloadcms/ui'
```
New:
```ts
import type {
FormFieldBase,
// etc.
} from 'payload'
```
Custom field components are now much more strongly typed. To make this
happen, an explicit type for every custom component has been generated
for every field type. The convention is to append
`DescriptionComponent`, `LabelComponent`, and `ErrorComponent` onto the
end of the field name, i.e. `TextFieldDescriptionComponent`. Here's an
example:
```ts
import type { TextFieldDescriptionComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const CustomDescription: TextFieldDescriptionComponent = (props) => {
return (
<div id="custom-field-description">{`The max length of this field is: ${props?.maxLength}`}</div>
)
}
```
Here's the full list of all new types:
Label Components:
```ts
import type {
ArrayFieldLabelComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelComponent,
CheckboxFieldLabelComponent,
CodeFieldLabelComponent,
CollapsibleFieldLabelComponent,
DateFieldLabelComponent,
EmailFieldLabelComponent,
GroupFieldLabelComponent,
HiddenFieldLabelComponent,
JSONFieldLabelComponent,
NumberFieldLabelComponent,
PointFieldLabelComponent,
RadioFieldLabelComponent,
RelationshipFieldLabelComponent,
RichTextFieldLabelComponent,
RowFieldLabelComponent,
SelectFieldLabelComponent,
TabsFieldLabelComponent,
TextFieldLabelComponent,
TextareaFieldLabelComponent,
UploadFieldLabelComponent
} from 'payload'
```
Error Components:
```tsx
import type {
ArrayFieldErrorComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorComponent,
CheckboxFieldErrorComponent,
CodeFieldErrorComponent,
CollapsibleFieldErrorComponent,
DateFieldErrorComponent,
EmailFieldErrorComponent,
GroupFieldErrorComponent,
HiddenFieldErrorComponent,
JSONFieldErrorComponent,
NumberFieldErrorComponent,
PointFieldErrorComponent,
RadioFieldErrorComponent,
RelationshipFieldErrorComponent,
RichTextFieldErrorComponent,
RowFieldErrorComponent,
SelectFieldErrorComponent,
TabsFieldErrorComponent,
TextFieldErrorComponent,
TextareaFieldErrorComponent,
UploadFieldErrorComponent
} from 'payload'
```
Description Components:
```tsx
import type {
ArrayFieldDescriptionComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionComponent,
CheckboxFieldDescriptionComponent,
CodeFieldDescriptionComponent,
CollapsibleFieldDescriptionComponent,
DateFieldDescriptionComponent,
EmailFieldDescriptionComponent,
GroupFieldDescriptionComponent,
HiddenFieldDescriptionComponent,
JSONFieldDescriptionComponent,
NumberFieldDescriptionComponent,
PointFieldDescriptionComponent,
RadioFieldDescriptionComponent,
RelationshipFieldDescriptionComponent,
RichTextFieldDescriptionComponent,
RowFieldDescriptionComponent,
SelectFieldDescriptionComponent,
TabsFieldDescriptionComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionComponent,
TextareaFieldDescriptionComponent,
UploadFieldDescriptionComponent
} from 'payload'
```
This PR also:
- Standardizes the `FieldBase['label']` type with a new `LabelStatic`
type. This makes type usage much more consistent across components.
- Simplifies some of the typings in the field component map, removes
unneeded `<Omit>`, etc.
- Fixes misc. linting issues around voiding promises

Closes#7290
Doesn't look like those hacky esm-cjs imports are needed anymore.
These major pino releases only drop Node.js version support for versions
which payload doesn't support anyways.
We do not really need runtime joi schema validation - this is what TypeScript is for. If people are ignoring TypeScript errors in your schema, or JavaScript errors, that is their fault and does not warrant an extra dependency (joi), lots of code to maintain, as well as slower startups.
If we wanna keep runtime schema validation, we should switch to zod so that we can generate TypeScript types based on the schema and do not have to manually maintain config properties in 2 different places (types & schema).
**joi PROs:**
- Safety for JavaScript-only evangelists messing up their schema
- Safety for people putting @ts-expect-error or `as any` everywhere in their code
**joi CONs:**
- Larger bundle size
- More Modules
- Slower Compilation Speed in dev. Worse DX
- Slower Startup (it needs to validate) in dev. Worse DX
- More code to maintain. For every schema change we'll have to change the types AND the joi schema
- TypeScript already throws proper errors if you mess up your schema. Why have runtime errors?
- The errors are bad. They might tell you what field has an issue, but they do not tell you what exactly is wrong. You have probably seen those "Field XY, value is incorrect" errors - and value could mean anything. Worse DX
- Having extra properties in your schema, even if they are useless, doesn't cause any harm
Cons outweigh the pros
**BREAKING:**
- The `deepMerge` exported from payload now handles more complex data and
is slower. The old, simple deepMerge is now exported as `deepMergeSimple`
- `combineMerge` is no longer exported. You can use
`deepMergeWithCombinedArrays` instead
- The behavior of the exported `deepCopyObject` and `isPlainObject` may
be different and more reliable, as the underlying algorithm has changed
Fixes#7101Fixes#7006
Drawers were sending duplicate query params. This new approach modeled after the fix in V2, ensures that each drawer has its own action url created per document and the query params will be created when that is generated.
Also fixes the following:
- incorrect focal point cropping
- generated filenames for animated image names used incorrect heights
Opts to use links instead of router.replace when switching locales. The
main benefit is now the user will be warned if they have changes and
want to switch locales. Before it would switch locales and they would
lose any unsaved changes in the locale they came from.
`auth.loginWithUsername`:
```ts
auth: {
loginWithUsername: {
allowEmailLogin: true, // default: false
requireEmail: false, // default: false
}
}
```
#### `allowEmailLogin`
This property will allow you to determine if users should be able to
login with either email or username. If set to `false`, the default
value, then users will only be able to login with usernames when using
the `loginWithUsername` property.
#### `requireEmail`
Require that users also provide emails when using usernames.
Makes it so generated types now includes a `db` object with `idType` set
to `string` or `number` depending on the database
```ts
db: {
defaultIDType: number;
};
```
The conf dependency being bundled (not even executed) causes frequent
HMR runs (around 10+) to throw multiple MaxListenersExceeded warnings in
the console.
This PR
- fixes telemetry which was previously broken (threw an error which we
ignored) due to a conf version upgrade
- Removes the conf dependency (which is large and comes with a lot of
unneeded dependencies from functionality we don't need, like dot
notation or ajv validation). The important parts of the source code were
copied over - it's now dependency-free
- makes sure we only register the Next.js HMR websocket listener once,
by adding it to the cache
Before this PR:

After this PR:

Canary: 3.0.0-canary.ca3dd1c

- disable turbo by default as hmr is broken and we cannot test against
it yet
- remove ts-node mention in tsconfig as it's not used anymore
- remove unused packages

Fixes#6789
The skipVerify field in NodemailerAdapterArgs worked in reverse of what
it was supposed to do:
- With skipVerify = true -> Verified transport
- With skipVerify = false -> Did not verify transport
This PR makes the property work in the intended way:
- With skipVerify = true -> DO NOT verify transport
- With skipVerify = false -> DO verify transport
We now validate the names of the field against an array of protected
field names.
Also added JSDoc since we can't enforce type strictness yet if `string |
const[]` as it always evaluates to `string`.
```
The name of the field. Must be alphanumeric and cannot contain ' . '
Must not be one of protected field names: ['__v', 'salt', 'hash', 'file']

- Upgrades eslint from v8 to v9
- Upgrades all other eslint packages. We will have to do a new
full-project lint, as new rules have been added
- Upgrades husky from v8 to v9
- Upgrades lint-staged from v14 to v15
- Moves the old .eslintrc.cjs file format to the new eslint.config.js
flat file format.
Previously, we were very specific regarding which rules are applied to
which files. Now that `extends` is no longer a thing, I have to use
deepMerge & imports instead.
This is rather uncommon and is not a documented pattern - e.g.
typescript-eslint docs want us to add the default typescript-eslint
rules to the top-level & then disable it in files using the
disable-typechecked config.
However, I hate this opt-out approach. The way I did it here adds a lot
of clarity as to which rules are applied to which files, and is pretty
easy to read. Much less black magic
## .eslintignore
These files are no longer supported (see
https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/migration-guide#ignoring-files).
I moved the entries to the ignores property in the eslint config. => one
less file in each package folder!
## Description
Exports `getSiblingData`, `getDataByPath`, `reduceFieldsToValues`, and
`unflatten` from `payload`. These utilities were previously accessible
using direct import paths from `@payloadcms/ui`—but this is no longer
advised since moving to a pre-bundled UI library pattern. Instead of
simply exporting these from the `@payloadcms/ui` package, these exports
have been moved to Payload itself to provision for use outside of React
environments.
This is considered a breaking change. If you were previously importing
any of these utilities, the imports paths have changed as follows:
Old:
```ts
import { getSiblingData, getDataByPath, reduceFieldsToValues } from '@payloadcms/ui/forms/Form'
import { unflatten } from '@payloadcms/ui/utilities'
```
New:
```ts
import { getSiblingData, getDataByPath, reduceFieldsToValues, unflatten } from 'payload/shared'
```
The `is-buffer` dependency was also removed in this PR.

## Description
BREAKING CHANGE: Color values have changed and will have different
contrasts. If you use any of Payload's colors in your apps, you may need
to adjust your use of them to maintain proper styling/accessibility.
Colors palettes changed:
- `--theme-success-*`
- `--theme-error-*`
- `--theme-warning-*`
- `--color-success-*`
- `--color-error-*`
- `--color-warning-*`
- `--color-blue-*`
Updates the color palette used throughout Payload to be more consistent
between dark and light values. Contrast values are now more in line with
the `theme-elevation` contrasts. Some adjustments to the Toast
components as well to match light/dark mode better.

**BREAKING:** The minimum required Next.js version has been bumped from
`15.0.0-rc.0` to `15.0.0-canary.53`. This is because the way client
components are represented changed somewhere between those versions, and
it is not feasible to support both versions in our RSC detection logic.

```ts
// the following types can now take in arguments for User type
GenerateVerifyEmailHTML<User>
GenerateVerifyEmailSubject<User>
GenerateForgotPasswordEmailHTML<User>
GenerateForgotPasswordEmailSubject<User>
```
BREAKING: `ValidationError` now requires the `global` or `collection`
slug, as well as an `errors` property. The actual errors are no longer
at the top-level.
Changed the data to correctly match type generic being sent to the
generate functions. So now you can type your generateTitle etc.
functions like this
```ts
// before
const generateTitle: GenerateTitle = async <Page>({ doc, locale }) => {
return `Website.com — ${doc?.title?.value}`
}
// curent
import type { GenerateDescription, GenerateTitle, GenerateURL } from '@payloadcms/plugin-seo/types'
import type { Page } from './payload-types'
const generateTitle: GenerateTitle<Page> = async ({ doc, locale }) => {
return `Website.com — ${doc?.title}`
}
const generateDescription: GenerateDescription<Page> = async ({ doc, locale }) => {
return doc?.excerpt || 'generated description'
}
const generateURL: GenerateURL<Page> = async ({ doc, locale }) => {
return `https://yoursite.com/${locale ? locale + '/' : ''}${doc?.slug || ''}`
}
```
Breaking change because it was previously a FormState value.
## Description
Some authentication strategies may need to set headers for responses,
such as updating cookies via a refresh token, and similar. This PR
extends Payload's auth strategy capabilities with a manner of
accomplishing this.
This is a breaking change if you have custom authentication strategies
in Payload's 3.0 beta. But it's a simple one to update.
Instead of your custom auth strategy returning the `user`, now you must
return an object with a `user` property.
This is because you can now also optionally return `responseHeaders`,
which will be returned by Payload API responses if you define them in
your auth strategies. This can be helpful for cases where you need to
set cookies and similar, directly within your auth strategies.
Before:
```ts
return user
```
After:
```ts
return { user }
```
## Description
<!-- Please include a summary of the pull request and any related issues
it fixes. Please also include relevant motivation and context. -->
The v3 documentation mislead people by using PassportJS even though it's
not in v3 and custom strategies should be used instead with the correct
link.

## Description
Properties within the Custom Collection Components config were not
properly cased. In the Payload Config, there are places where we expose
_an array_ of Custom Components to render. These properties should be
cased in `camelCase` to indicate that its type is _**not**_ a component,
but rather, it's an _**array**_ of components. This is how all other
arrays are already cased throughout the config, therefore these
components break exiting convention. The `CapitalCase` convention is
reserved for _components themselves_, however, fixing this introduces a
breaking change. Here's how to migrate:
Old:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
AfterList: [],
AfterListTable: [],
BeforeList: [],
BeforeListTable: [],
}
}
}
```
New:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
afterList: [],
afterListTable: [],
beforeList: [],
beforeListTable: [],
}
}
}
```
The docs were also out of date for the Root-level Custom Components.
These components are documented in CaptalCase but are in fact cased
correctly in Payload. This PR fixes that.

Adds the ability to set response headers by using a new
`uploads.modifyResponseHeaders` property. You could previously do this
in Express in Payload v2.
You can do this like so:
```ts
upload: {
modifyResponseHeaders: ({ headers }) => {
headers.set('Cache-Control', 'public, max-age=86400')
return headers
}
},
```
**BREAKING:**
- Type narrowing for `relationTo` props on filterOptions, relationship
fields and upload fields
- Type narrowing for arguments of lexical relationship, link and upload
features
## Description
Standardizes all named field exports. This improves semantics when using
these components by appending `Field` onto the end of their names. Some
components were already doing this, i.e. `ArrayField` and `BlocksField`.
Now, all field components share this same convention. And since bundled
components were already aliasing most exports in this way, this change
will largely go unnoticed because most apps were _already_ importing the
correctly named components. What is ultimately means is that there was a
mismatch between the unbundled vs bundled exports. This PR resolves that
conflict. But this also introduces a potentially breaking change for
your app. If your app is using components that import from the
_unbundled_ `@payloadcms/ui` package, those import paths likely changed:
Old:
```tsx
import { Text } from '@payloadcms/ui/fields/Text'
```
New:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui/fields/Text'
```
If you were importing direcetly from the _bundled_ version, you're
imports likely have not changed. For example:
This still works (the import path is top-level, pointing to the
_bundled_ code):
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
```

**BREAKING:** a bunch of exports have been moved around. There are now
two of them: `@payloadcms/richtext-lexical` and
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/client`. The root export is server-only.
If any imports don't resolve anymore after this version, simply change
the import to one of those, depending on if you are on the server or the
client
**BREAKING:**
- ServerFeature: `ClientComponent` has been renamed to `ClientFeature`
- ServerFeature: The nested `serverFeatureProps` has been renamed to
`sanitizedServerFeatureProps`
- ServerFeature: The FeatureProviderProviderServer type now expects 3
generics instead of 2. We have split the props generic into sanitized &
unsanitized props
- ClientFeature: The FeatureProviderProviderClient type now expects 2
generics instead of 1. We have split the props generic into sanitized &
unsanitized props
- ClientFeature: The nested `clientFeatureProps` has been renamed to
`sanitizedClientFeatureProps`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6869
Before, options from props were being stored in state and would not
update when props changed. Now options are memoized and will update when
the incoming `options` prop changes.
Allows `upload.handlers` to mutate the request. This can be useful when
you want to adjust headers on the request but do not want to return a
new response.
**BREAKING:** All `@payloadcms/ui/client` exports have been renamed to
`@payloadcms/ui`. A simple find & replace across your entire project
will be enough to migrate. This change greatly improves import
auto-completions in IDEs which lack proper support for package.json
exports, like Webstorm.
Copy of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6842 for beta
Allows empty strings ('') as defaultValue for fields of types: 'text'; 'textarea'; 'email'; 'code'. This can be useful when you want to ensure the value is always a string instead of null/undefined.

# Breaking Changes
### New file import locations
Exports from the `payload` package have been _significantly_ cleaned up.
Now, just about everything is able to be imported from `payload`
directly, rather than an assortment of subpath exports. This means that
things like `import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'` are now just
imported via `import { buildConfig } from 'payload'`. The mental model
is significantly simpler for developers, but you might need to update
some of your imports.
Payload now exposes only three exports:
1. `payload` - all types and server-only Payload code
2. `payload/shared` - utilities that can be used in either the browser
or in Node environments
3. `payload/node` - heavy utilities that should only be imported in Node
scripts and never be imported into bundled code like Next.js
### UI library pre-bundling
With this release, we've dramatically sped up the compile time for
Payload by pre-bundling our entire UI package for use inside of the
Payload admin itself. There are new exports that should be used within
Payload custom components:
1. `@payloadcms/ui/client` - all client components
2. `@payloadcms/ui/server` - all server components
For all of your custom Payload admin UI components, you should be
importing from one of these two pre-compiled barrel files rather than
importing from the more deeply nested exports directly. That will keep
compile times nice and speedy, and will also make sure that the bundled
JS for your admin UI is kept small.
For example, whereas before, if you imported the Payload `Button`, you
would have imported it like this:
```ts
import { Button } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Button'
```
Now, you would import it like this:
```ts
import { Button } from '@payloadcms/ui/client'
```
This is a significant DX / performance optimization that we're pretty
pumped about.
However, if you are importing or re-using Payload UI components
_outside_ of the Payload admin UI, for example in your own frontend
apps, you can import from the individual component exports which will
make sure that the bundled JS is kept to a minimum in your frontend
apps. So in your own frontend, you can continue to import directly to
the components that you want to consume rather than importing from the
pre-compiled barrel files.
Individual component exports will now come with their corresponding CSS
and everything will work perfectly as-expected.
### Specific exports have changed
- `'@payloadcms/ui/templates/Default'` and
`'@payloadcms/ui/templates/Minimal`' are now exported from
`'@payloadcms/next/templates'`
- Old: `import { LogOut } from '@payloadcms/ui/icons/LogOut'` new:
`import { LogOutIcon } from '@payloadcms/ui/icons/LogOut'`
## Background info
In effort to make local dev as fast as possible, we need to import as
few files as possible so that the compiler has less to process. One way
we've achieved this in the Admin Panel was to _remove_ all .scss imports
from all components in the `@payloadcms/ui` module using a build
process. This stripped all `import './index.scss'` statements out of
each component before injecting them into `dist`. Instead, it bundles
all of the CSS into a single `main.css` file, and we import _that_ at
the root of the app.
While this concept is _still_ the right solution to the problem, this
particular approach is not viable when using these components outside
the Admin Panel, where not only does this root stylesheet not exist, but
where it would also bloat your app with unused styles. Instead, we need
to _keep_ these .scss imports in place so they are imported directly
alongside your components, as expected. Then, we need create a _new_
build step that _separately_ compiles the components _without_ their
stylesheets—this way your app can consume either as needed from the new
`client` and `server` barrel files within `@payloadcms/ui`, i.e. from
within `@payloadcms/next` and all other admin-specific packages and
plugins.
This way, all other applications will simply import using the direct
file paths, just as they did before. Except now they come with
stylesheets.
And we've gotten a pretty awesome initial compilation performance boost.

## BREAKING
- Our internal field hook methods now have new required `schemaPath` and
path `props`. This affects the following functions, if you are using
those: `afterChangeTraverseFields`, `afterReadTraverseFields`,
`beforeChangeTraverseFields`, `beforeValidateTraverseFields`,
`afterReadPromise`
- The afterChange field hook's `value` is now the value AFTER the
previous hooks were run. Previously, this was the original value, which
I believe is a bug
- Only relevant if you have built your own richText adapter: the
richText adapter `populationPromises` property has been renamed to
`graphQLPopulationPromises` and is now only run for graphQL. Previously,
it was run for graphQL AND the rest API. To migrate, use
`hooks.afterRead` to run population for the rest API
- Only relevant if you have built your own lexical features: The
`populationPromises` server feature property has been renamed to
`graphQLPopulationPromises` and is now only run for graphQL. Previously,
it was run for graphQL AND the rest API. To migrate, use
`hooks.afterRead` to run population for the rest API
- Serialized lexical link and upload nodes now have a new `id` property.
While not breaking, localization / hooks will not work for their fields
until you have migrated to that. Re-saving the old document on the new
version will automatically add the `id` property for you. You will also
get a bunch of console logs for every lexical node which is not migrated
**BREAKING:** We now export toast from `sonner` instead of
`react-toastify`. If you send out toasts from your own projects, make
sure to use our `toast` export, or install `sonner`. React-toastify
toasts will no longer work anymore. The Toast APIs are mostly similar,
but there are some differences if you provide options to your toast
CSS styles have been changed from Toastify
```css
/* before */
.Toastify
/* current */
.payload-toast-container
.payload-toast-item
.payload-toast-close-button
/* individual toast items will also have these classes depending on the state */
.toast-info
.toast-warning
.toast-success
.toast-error
```

## Description
### Issue:
Non-animated webp / gif files were using `metadata.pages` to calculate
it's resized heights for `imageSizes` or `cropping`.
### Fix:
It should only use this to calculate it's height if the file's
`metadata` contains `metadata.pages`. Non-animated webps and gifs would
not have this.

Fixes#6694
Previously we were only creating sharp files for files that have file
adjustments but instead a sharp file should be created for animated
images even if there are no file adjustments - i.e
`const fileHasAdjustments = fileSupportsResize && Boolean(resizeOptions
|| formatOptions || imageSizes || trimOptions || file.tempFilePath)`

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6637
There was an issue where tab paths were being generated based on 2
scenarios when there are 3 possible scenarios:
- A path is provided and the tab is named
- A path is **not** provided but the tab is named
- Neither a path or a tab name are provided
Types are now auto-generated by default.
You can opt-out of this behavior by setting:
```ts
buildConfig({
// Rest of config
typescript: {
autoGenerate: false
},
})
```
## Description
Allows draft validation to be enabled at the config level.
You can enable this by:
```ts
// ...collectionConfig
versions: {
drafts: {
validate: true // defaults to false
}
}
```
## Description
Updates the `fields` override in plugin redirects to allow for
overriding
```ts
// before
overrides: {
fields: [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'customField',
},
],
},
// current
overrides: {
fields: ({ defaultFields }) => {
return [
...defaultFields,
{
type: 'text',
name: 'customField',
},
]
},
},
```

**BREAKING**:
- This bumps the minimum required node version from node 20.6.0 to node
20.9.0. This is because 20.6.0 breaks type generation due to a CJS node
bug, and 20.9.0 is the next v20 LTS version. The minimum node 18 version
stays the same (18.20.2)
## Description
fixes#6630
# BREAKING CHANGES
This only applies to you if you using db-postgres and have created the
`v2-v3-relationships` migration released in
[v3.0.0-beta.39](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/releases/tag/v3.0.0-beta.39)
from @payloadcms/db-postgres <= v3.0.0-beta.40.
### Steps to fix
- Delete the existing v2-v3-relationships migration file.
- If changes were made to your config since the previous migration was
made, you will need to revert those by checking out a previous commit in
your version control.
- Recreate the migration using `payload migrate:create --file
@payloadcms/db-postgres/relationships-v2-v3` to make the migration with
the snapshot .json file.
**BREAKING:**
- This upgrades the required version of lexical from 0.15.0 to 0.16.0.
If you are using lexical directly in your project, possibly due to
custom features, there might be breaking changes for you. Please consult
the lexical 0.16.0 changelog:
https://github.com/facebook/lexical/releases/tag/v0.16.0
**BREAKING**: useEditorFocusProvider has been removed and merged with
useEditorConfigContext. You can now find information about the focused
editor, parent editors and child editors within useEditorConfigContext
BREAKING CHANGE:
Moves `upload` field and `relationship` fields with `hasMany: false` &
`relationTo: string` from the many-to-many `_rels` join table to simple
columns. This only affects Postgres database users.
## TL;DR
We have dramatically simplified the storage of simple relationships in
relational databases to boost performance and align with more expected
relational paradigms. If you are using the beta Postgres adapter, and
you need to keep simple relationship data, you'll need to run a
migration script that we provide you.
### Background
For example, prior to this update, a collection of "posts" with a simple
`hasMany: false` and `relationTo: 'categories'` field would have a
`posts_rels` table where the category relations would be stored.
This was somewhat unnecessary as simple relations like this can be
expressed with a `category_id` column which is configured as a foreign
key. This also introduced added complexity for dealing directly with the
database if all you have are simple relations.
### Who needs to migrate
You need to migrate if you are using the beta Postgres database adapter
and any of the following applies to you.
- If you have versions enabled on any collection / global
- If you use the `upload` field
- If you have relationship fields that are `hasMany: false` (default)
and `relationTo` to a single category ([has
one](https://payloadcms.com/docs/fields/relationship#has-one)) relations
### We have a migration for you
Even though the Postgres adapter is in beta, we've prepared a predefined
migration that will work out of the box for you to migrate from an
earlier version of the adapter to the most recent version easily.
It makes the schema changes in step with actually moving the data from
the old locations to the new before adding any null constraints and
dropping the old columns and tables.
### How to migrate
The steps to preserve your data while making this update are as follows.
These steps are the same whether you are moving from Payload v2 to v3 or
a previous version of v3 beta to the most recent v3 beta.
**Important: during these steps, don't start the dev server unless you
have `push: false` set on your Postgres adapter.**
#### Step 1 - backup
Always back up your database before performing big changes, especially
in production cases.
#### Step 2 - create a pre-update migration
Before updating to new Payload and Postgres adapter versions, run
`payload migrate:create` without any other config changes to have a
prior snapshot of the schema from the previous adapter version
#### Step 3 - if you're migrating a dev DB, delete the dev `push` row
from your `payload_migrations` table
If you're migrating a dev database where you have the default setting to
push database changes directly to your DB, and you need to preserve data
in your development database, then you need to delete a `dev` migration
record from your database.
Connect directly to your database in any tool you'd like and delete the
dev push record from the `payload_migrations` table using the following
SQL statement:
```sql
DELETE FROM payload_migrations where batch = -1`
```
#### Step 4 - update Payload and Postgres versions to most recent
Update packages, making sure you have matching versions across all
`@payloadcms/*` and `payload` packages (including
`@payloadcms/db-postgres`)
#### Step 5 - create the predefined migration
Run the following command to create the predefined migration we've
provided:
```
payload migrate:create --file @payloadcms/db-postgres/relationships-v2-v3
```
#### Step 6 - migrate!
Run migrations with the following command:
```
payload migrate
```
Assuming the migration worked, you can proceed to commit this change and
distribute it to be run on all other environments.
Note that if two servers connect to the same database, only one should
be running migrations to avoid transaction conflicts.

## Type of change
- [x] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
Closes#6455. Proper localization support will be worked on later, this
just resolves the issue where having it enabled not only doesn't
localize those fields, it also omits them from the API response. Now,
they are not omitted, and localization is simply skipped.
**BREAKING:**
- bumps minimum required next.js version from `14.3.0-canary.68` to
`15.0.0-rc.0`
- bumps minimum required react and react-dom versions to `19.0.0
`(`19.0.0-rc-f994737d14-20240522` should be used)
- `@types/react` and `@types/react-dom` have to be bumped to
`npm:types-react@19.0.0-beta.2` using overrides and pnpm overrides, if
you want correct types. You can find an example of this here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6429/files#diff-10cb9e57a77733f174ee2888587281e94c31f79e434aa3f932a8ec72fa7a5121L32
## Issues
- Bunch of todos for our react-select package which is having type
issues. Works fine, just type issues. Their type defs are importing JSX
in a weird way, we likely just have to wait until they fix them in a
future update.
Fixes webpack issue with isHotkey: `TypeError:
is_hotkey__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_9__ is not a function`
Changing this from a default import to a named export, and it appears to
resolve the issue.
Fixes#6421
## Description
Renames the `Save` to `SaveButton`, etc. to match the already
established convention of the `PreviewButton`, etc. This matches the
imports with their respective component and type names, and also gives
these components more context to the developer whenever they're
rendered, i.e. its clearly just a button and not an entire block or
complex component.
**BREAKING**:
Import paths for these components have changed, if you were previously
importing these components into your own projects to customize, change
the import paths accordingly:
Old:
```ts
import { PublishButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Publish'
import { SaveButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Save'
import { SaveDraftButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/SaveDraft'
```
New:
```ts
import { PublishButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/PublishButton'
import { SaveButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/SaveButton'
import { SaveDraftButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/SaveDraftButton'
```

Change the exports of DefaultListView and DefaultEditView to be renamed
without "Default" as ListView
```ts
// before
import { DefaultEditView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
import { DefaultListView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
// after
import { EditView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
import { ListView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
```
Added additional prompt to make sure the translation we receive is using
formal language where it makes sense.
In the context of latin languages for example:
- Spanish: "tu" should be using "vos"
- French: "tu" should be using "votre"
These differences can affect verb conjugations and in these languages it
comes across as less professional if informal language is used.
## Description
Closes
[#225](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/issues/225).
The user verification emails are not being sent and this error is shown:
```ts
APIError: Error sending email: 422 validation_error - Invalid `from` field. The email address needs to follow the `email@example.com` or `Name <email@example.com>` format.
```
The issue is resolved by updating the `from` property on the outgoing
verification email:
```ts
from: `"${email.defaultFromName}" <${email.defaultFromName}>`,
// to
from: `"${email.defaultFromName}" <${email. defaultFromAddress}>`,
```
**NOTE:** This was not broken in 2.0, see correct outgoing email
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/auth/sendVerificationEmail.ts#L69).

This GitHub Action automatically comments on and/or labels Issues and PRs when a fix is released for them.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> 🔧 Heavily modified version of https://github.com/apexskier/github-release-commenter
## Fork Modifications
- Filters to closed PRs only
- Adds tag filter to support non-linear releases
- Better logging
- Moved to pnpm
- Uses @vercel/ncc for packaging
- Comments on locked issues by unlocking then re-locking
## How it works
Use this action in a workflow [triggered by a release](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows#release). It will scan commits between that and the prior release, find associated Issues and PRs, and comment on them to let people know a release has been made. Associated Issues and PRs can be directly [linked](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/managing-your-work-on-github/linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue) to the commit or manually linked from a PR associated with the commit.
## Inputs
**GITHUB_TOKEN**
A GitHub personal access token with repo scope, such as [`secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN`](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/actions/reference/authentication-in-a-workflow#about-the-github_token-secret).
**comment-template** (optional)
Override the comment posted on Issues and PRs. Set to the empty string to disable commenting. Several variables strings will be automatically replaced:
-`{release_link}` - a markdown link to the release
-`{release_name}` - the release's name
-`{release_tag}` - the release's tag
**label-template** (optional)
Add the given label. Multiple labels can be separated by commas. Several variable strings will be automatically replaced:
-`{release_name}` - the release's name
-`{release_tag}` - the release's tag
**skip-label** (optional)
Skip processing if any of the given labels are present. Same processing rules as **label-template**. Default is "dependencies".
## Example
```yml
on:
release:
types:[published]
jobs:
release:
steps:
- uses:apexskier/github-release-commenter@v1
with:
GITHUB_TOKEN:${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
comment-template:|
Release {release_link} addresses this.
```
## Known limitations
These are some known limitations of this action. I'd like to try to address them in the future.
- Non-linear releases aren't supported. For example, releasing a patch to a prior major release after a new major release has been bumped.
- Non-sequential releases aren't supported. For example, if you release multiple prereleases between two official releases, this will only create a comment for the first prerelease in which a fix is released, not the final release.
- The first release for a project will be ignored. This is intentional, as the use case is unlikely. Most projects will either have several alphas that don't need release comments, or won't use issues/PRs for the first commit.
- If a large number of things are commented on, you may see the error `Error: You have triggered an abuse detection mechanism. Please wait a few minutes before you try again.`. Consider using the `skip-label` input to reduce your load on the GitHub API.
## Versions
Workflows will automatically update the tags `v1` and `latest`, allowing you to reference one of those instead of locking to a specific release.

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.
Please test your reproduction against the latest version of Payload to make sure your issue has not already been fixed.
### I added a link, why was it still marked?
Ensure the link is pointing to a codebase that is accessible (e.g. not a private repository). "[example.com](http://example.com/)", "n/a", "will add later", etc. are not acceptable links -- we need to see a public codebase. See the above section for accepted links.

## Internationalization (i18n)
If your PR adds a string to the UI, we need to make sure to translate it into all the languages that Payload supports. To do that:
- Find the appropriate internationalization file for your package. These are typically located in `packages/translations/src/languages`, although some packages (e.g., richtext-lexical) have separate i18n files for each feature.
- Add the string to the English locale "en".
- Translate it to other languages. You can use the `translateNewKeys` script if you have an OpenAI API key in your `.env` (under `OPENAI_KEY`), or you can use ChatGPT or Google translate - whatever is easier for you. For payload core translations (in packages/translations) you can run the `translateNewKeys` script using `cd packages/translations && pnpm translateNewKeys`. For lexical translations, you can run it using `cd packages/richtext-lexical && pnpm translateNewKeys`. External contributors can skip this step and leave it to us.

If you'd like to run the examples, you can use `create-payload-app` to create a project from one:
You can define Collection-level Access Control within each Collection's `access` property. All Access Control functions accept one `args` argument.
Collection Access Control is [Access Control](../access-control/overview) used to restrict access to Documents within a [Collection](../getting-started/concepts#collections), as well as what they can and cannot see within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) as it relates to that Collection.
| **`readVersions`** | Used to control who can read versions, and who can't. Will automatically restrict the Admin UI version viewing access. [More details](#read-versions). |
### Create
Returns a boolean which allows/denies access to the `create` request.
| **`req`** | The [Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request) object containing the currently authenticated `user`. |
| **`data`** | The data passed to create the document with. |
### Read
Read access functions can return a boolean result or optionally return a [query constraint](/docs/queries/overview) which limits the documents that are returned to only those that match the constraint you provide. This can be helpful to restrict users' access to only certain documents however you specify.
Returns a boolean which allows/denies access to the `read` request.
| **`req`** | The [Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request) object containing the currently authenticated `user`. |
| **`id`** | `id` of document requested, if within `findByID`. |
### Update
Update access functions can return a boolean result or optionally return a [query constraint](/docs/queries/overview) to limit the document(s) that can be updated by the currently authenticated user. For example, returning a `query` from the `update` Access Control is helpful in cases where you would like to restrict a user to only being able to update the documents containing a `createdBy` relationship field equal to the user's ID.
Returns a boolean which allows/denies access to the `update` request.
| **`req`** | The [Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request) object containing the currently authenticated `user`. |
| **`id`** | `id` of document requested to update. |
| **`data`** | The data passed to update the document with. |
### Delete
Similarly to the Update function, returns a boolean or a [query constraint](/docs/queries/overview) to limit which documents can be deleted by which users.
| **`req`** | The [Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request) object with additional `user` property, which is the currently logged in user. |
| **`id`** | `id` of document requested to delete. |
### Admin
If the Collection is [used to access the Payload Admin panel](/docs/admin/overview#the-admin-user-collection), the `Admin` Access Control function determines whether or not the currently logged in user can access the admin UI.

### Read Versions
If the Collection has [Versions](../versions/overview) enabled, the `readVersions` Access Control function determines whether or not the currently logged in user can access the version history of a Document.
To add Read Versions Access Control to a Collection, use the `readVersions` property in the [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
Field Access Control is specified with functions inside a field's config. All field-level Controls return a boolean value to allow or deny access for the specified operation. No field-level Access Controls support returning query constraints. All Access Control functions accept one `args` argument.
Field Access Control is [Access Control](../access-control/overview) used to restrict access to specific [Fields](../fields/overview) within a Document.
| **`create`** | Allows or denies the ability to set a field's value when creating a new document. [More details](#create). |
| **`read`** | Allows or denies the ability to read a field's value. [More details](#read). |
| **`update`** | Allows or denies the ability to update a field's value [More details](#update). |
### Create
Returns a boolean which allows or denies the ability to set a field's value when creating a new document. If `false` is returned, any passed values will be discarded.
You can define Global-level Access Control within each Global's `access` property. All Access Control functions accept one `args` argument.
Global Access Control is [Access Control](../access-control/overview) used to restrict access to [Global](../configuration/globals) Documents, as well as what they can and cannot see within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) as it relates to that Global.

Access control within Payload is extremely powerful while remaining easy and intuitive to manage. Declaring who should have access to what documents is no more complex than writing a simple JavaScript function that either returns a `boolean` or a [`query`](/docs/queries/overview) constraint to restrict which documents users can interact with.
<YouTube id="DoPLyXG26Dg" title="Overview of Payload Access Control" />
**Example use cases:**
Access Control determines what a user can and cannot do with any given Document, as well as what they can and cannot see within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). By implementing Access Control, you can define granular restrictions based on the user, their roles (RBAC), Document data, or any other criteria your application requires.
- Allowing anyone `read` access to all `Post`s
- Only allowing public access to `Post`s where a `status` field is equal to `published`
- Giving only `User`s with a `role` field equal to `admin` the ability to delete `Page`(s)
- Allowing anyone to create `ContactSubmission`s, but only logged in users to `read`, `update` or `delete` them
- Restricting a `User` to only be able to see their own `Order`(s), but no others
- Allowing `User`s that belong to a certain `Organization` to access only that `Organization`'s `Resource`s
Access Control functions are scoped to the _operation_, meaning you can have different rules for `create`, `read`, `update`, `delete`, etc. Access Control functions are executed _before_ any changes are made and _before_ any operations are completed. This allows you to determine if the user has the necessary permissions before fulfilling the request.
### Default Settings
There are many use cases for Access Control, including:
**By default, all Collections and Globals require that a user is logged in to be able to interact in any way.** The default Access Control function evaluates the `user` from the Express `req` and returns `true` if a user is logged in, and `false` if not.
- Allowing anyone `read` access to all posts
- Only allowing public access to posts where a `status` field is equal to `published`
- Giving only users with a `role` field equal to `admin` the ability to delete posts
- Allowing anyone to submit contact forms, but only logged in users to `read`, `update` or `delete` them
- Restricting a user to only be able to see their own orders, but no-one else's
- Allowing users that belong to a certain organization to access only that organization's resources
**Default Access function:**
There are three main types of Access Control in Payload:
- [Collection Access Control](./collections)
- [Global Access Control](./globals)
- [Field Access Control](./fields)
## Default Access Control
Payload provides default Access Control so that your data is secured behind [Authentication](../authentication/overview) without additional configuration. To do this, Payload sets a default function that simply checks if a user is present on the request. You can override this default behavior by defining your own Access Control functions as needed.
Here is the default Access Control that Payload provides:
In the Local API, all Access Control functions are skipped by default, allowing your server to do
whatever it needs. But, you can opt back in by setting the option <strong>
overrideAccess
</strong>{' '}
to <strong>false</strong>.
<Banner type="warning">
**Important:** In the [Local API](../local-api/overview), all Access Control
is _skipped_ by default. This allows your server to have full control over
your application. To opt back in, you can set the `overrideAccess` option to
`false` in your requests.
</Banner>
### Access Control Types
## The Access Operation
You can manage access within Payload on three different levels:
The Admin Panel responds dynamically to your changes to Access Control. For example, if you restrict editing `ExampleCollection` to only users that feature an "admin" role, Payload will **hide** that Collection from the Admin Panel entirely. This is super powerful and allows you to control who can do what within your Admin Panel using the same functions that secure your APIs.
- [Collections](/docs/access-control/collections)
- [Fields](/docs/access-control/fields)
- [Globals](/docs/access-control/globals)
### When Access Control is Executed
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
Access control functions are utilized in two places. It's important to understand how and when
your access control is executed.
</Banner>
#### As you execute operations
When you perform Payload operations like `create`, `read`, `update`, and `delete`, your access control functions will be executed before any changes or operations are completed.
#### Within the Admin UI
The Payload Admin UI responds dynamically to the access control that you define. For example, if you restrict editing a `ExampleCollection` to only users that feature a `role` of `admin`, the Payload Admin UI will **hide** the `ExampleCollection` from the Admin UI entirely. This is super powerful and allows you to control who can do what with your Admin UI.
To accomplish this, Payload ships with an `Access` operation, which is executed when a user logs into the Admin UI. Payload will execute each one of your access control functions, across all collections, globals, and fields, at the top level and return a response that contains a reflection of what the currently authenticated user can do with your application.
### Argument Availability
To accomplish this, Payload exposes the [Access Operation](../authentication/operations#access). Upon login, Payload executes each Access Control function at the top level, across all Collections, Globals, and Fields, and returns a response that contains a reflection of what the currently authenticated user can do within your application.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
When your access control functions are executed via the <strong>access</strong> operation, the{' '}
<strong>id</strong> and <strong>data</strong> arguments will be <strong>undefined</strong>,
because Payload is executing your functions without referencing a specific document.
**Important:** When your access control functions are executed via the [Access
Operation](../authentication/operations#access), the `id` and `data` arguments
will be `undefined`. This is because Payload is executing your functions
without referencing a specific Document.
</Banner>
If you use `id` or `data` within your access control functions, make sure to check that they are defined first. If they are not, then you can assume that your access control is being executed via the `access` operation, to determine solely what the user can do within the Admin UI.

## Locale Specific Access Control
To implement locale-specific access control, you can use the `req.locale` argument in your access control functions. This argument allows you to evaluate the current locale of the request and determine access permissions accordingly.
desc: Bundlers are used to bundle the code that serves Payload's Admin Panel.
---
Payload has two official bundlers, the [Webpack Bundler](/docs/admin/webpack) and the [Vite Bundler](/docs/admin/vite). You must install a bundler to use the admin panel.
##### Install a bundler
Webpack (recommended):
```text
yarn add @payloadcms/bundler-webpack
```
Vite (beta):
```text
yarn add @payloadcms/bundler-vite
```
##### Configure the bundler
```ts
// payload.config.ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import { webpackBundler } from '@payloadcms/bundler-webpack'
// import { viteBundler } from '@payloadcms/bundler-vite'
export default buildConfig({
// highlight-start
admin: {
bundler: webpackBundler(), // or viteBundler()
},
// highlight-end
})
```
### What are bundlers?
At their core, a bundler's main goal is to take a bunch of files and turn them into a few optimized files that you ship to the browser. The admin UI has a root `index.html` entry point, and from there the bundler traverses the dependency tree, bundling all of the files that are required from that point on.
Since the bundled file is sent to the browser, it can't include any server-only code. You will need to remove any server-only code from your admin UI before bundling it. You can learn more about [excluding server code](/docs/admin/excluding-server-code) section.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Using environment variables in the admin UI</strong>
<br />
Bundles should not contain sensitive information. By default, Payload excludes env variables from
the bundle. If you need to use env variables in your payload config, you need to prefix them with
`PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_` to make them available to the client-side code.
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.
While designing the Payload Admin panel, we determined it should be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow easy customization and control. There are many times where you may want to completely control how a whole view or a field works. You might even want to add in new views entirely. In order for Payload to support this level of customization without introducing versioning / future-proofing issues, Payload provides for a pattern to supply your own React components via your Payload config.
To swap in your own React component, first, consult the list of available component overrides below. Determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, and then author your React component accordingly.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
Custom components will automatically be provided with all props that the default component
normally accepts.
</Banner>
### Base Component Overrides
You can override a set of admin panel-wide components by providing a component to your base Payload config's `admin.components` property. The following options are available:
| **`Nav`** | Contains the sidebar / mobile menu in its entirety. |
| **`BeforeNavLinks`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Nav, _before_ the links themselves. |
| **`AfterNavLinks`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Nav, _after_ the links. |
| **`BeforeDashboard`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _before_ the default dashboard contents. |
| **`AfterDashboard`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _after_ the default dashboard contents. [Demo](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/test/admin/components/AfterDashboard/index.tsx) |
| **`BeforeLogin`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Login, _before_ the default login form. |
| **`AfterLogin`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Login, _after_ the default login form. |
| **`logout.Button`** | A custom React component. |
| **`graphics.Icon`** | Used as a graphic within the `Nav` component. Often represents a condensed version of a full logo. |
| **`graphics.Logo`** | The full logo to be used in contexts like the `Login` view. |
| **`providers`** | Define your own provider components that will wrap the Payload Admin UI. [More](#custom-providers) |
| **`actions`** | Array of custom components to be rendered in the Payload Admin UI header, providing additional interactivity and functionality. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Payload Admin UI. [More](#views) |
Here is a full example showing how to swap some of these components for your own.

views: {
Account: MyCustomAccount,
Dashboard: MyCustomDashboard,
},
providers: [MyProvider],
},
},
})
```
#### Views
You can easily swap entire views with your own by using the `admin.components.views` property. At the root level, Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
| **`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. |
To swap out any of these views, simply pass in your custom component to the `admin.components.views` property of your Payload config. For example:
```ts
// payload.config.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Account: MyCustomAccountView,
Dashboard: MyCustomDashboardView,
},
},
},
}
```
For more granular control, pass a configuration object instead. Each view corresponds to its own `<Route />` component in [React Router v5](https://v5.reactrouter.com). Payload exposes all of the properties of React Router:
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
#### Adding new views
To add a _new_ view to the Admin Panel, simply add another key to the `views` object with at least a `path` and `Component` property. For example:
```ts
// payload.config.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
MyCustomView: {
Component: MyCustomView,
path: '/my-custom-view',
},
},
},
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
Routes are cascading. This means that 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, you could define your nested route _before_ your parent
route.
</Banner>

For help on how to build your own custom view components, see [building a custom view component](#building-a-custom-view-component).
### Collections
You can override components on a collection-by-collection basis via the `admin.components` property.
| **`BeforeList`** | Array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List view |
| **`BeforeListTable`** | Array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List view's table |
| **`AfterList`** | Array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List view |
| **`AfterListTable`** | Array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List view's table |
| **`edit.SaveButton`** | Replace the default `Save` button with a custom component. Drafts must be disabled |
| **`edit.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default `Save Draft` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
| **`edit.PublishButton`** | Replace the default `Publish` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled. |
| **`edit.PreviewButton`** | Replace the default `Preview` button with a custom component. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Payload Admin UI. [More](#collection-views) |
Here is a full example showing how to swap some of these components for your own:
To swap out entire views on collections, you can use the `admin.components.views` property on the collection's config. Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
| **`Edit`** | The Edit view is used to edit a single document for a given collection. |
| **`List`** | The List view is used to show a list of documents for a given collection. |
To swap out any of these views, simply pass in your custom component to the `admin.components.views` property of your Payload config. This will replace the entire view, including the page breadcrumbs, title, tabs, etc, _as well as all nested routes_.
```ts
// Collection.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: MyCustomEditView,
List: MyCustomListView,
},
},
},
}
```
_For help on how to build your own custom view components, see [building a custom view component](#building-a-custom-view-component)._
**Customizing Nested Views within 'Edit' in Collections**
The `Edit` view in collections consists of several nested views, each serving a unique purpose. You can customize these nested views using the `admin.components.views.Edit` property in the collection's configuration. This approach allows you to replace specific nested views while keeping the overall structure of the `Edit` view intact, including the page breadcrumbs, title, tabs, etc.
Here's an example of how you can customize nested views within the `Edit` view in collections, including the use of the `actions` property:
```ts
// Collection.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: {
Default: {
Component: MyCustomDefaultTab,
actions: [CollectionEditButton], // Custom actions for the default edit view
},
API: {
Component: MyCustomAPIView,
actions: [CollectionAPIButton], // Custom actions for API view
},
LivePreview: {
Component: MyCustomLivePreviewView,
actions: [CollectionLivePreviewButton], // Custom actions for Live Preview
},
Version: {
Component: MyCustomVersionView,
actions: [CollectionVersionButton], // Custom actions for Version view
},
Versions: {
Component: MyCustomVersionsView,
actions: [CollectionVersionsButton], // Custom actions for Versions view
},
},
List: {
actions: [CollectionListButton],
},
},
},
},
}
```
**Adding New Tabs to 'Edit' View**
You can also add _new_ tabs to the `Edit` view by adding another key to the `components.views.Edit[key]` object with a `path` and `Component` property. See [Custom Tabs](#custom-tabs) for more information.
### Globals
As with Collections, you can override components on a global-by-global basis via the `admin.components` property.
| **`elements.SaveButton`** | Replace the default `Save` button with a custom component. Drafts must be disabled |
| **`elements.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default `Save Draft` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
| **`elements.PublishButton`** | Replace the default `Publish` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled. |
| **`elements.PreviewButton`** | Replace the default `Preview` button with a custom component. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Payload Admin UI. [More](#global-views) |
#### Global views
To swap out views for globals, you can use the `admin.components.views` property on the global's config. Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
| **`Edit`** | The Edit view is used to edit a single document for a given Global. |
To swap out any of these views, simply pass in your custom component to the `admin.components.views` property of your Payload config. This will replace the entire view, including the page breadcrumbs, title, and tabs, _as well as all nested views_.
```ts
// Global.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: MyCustomEditView,
},
},
},
}
```
_For help on how to build your own custom view components, see [building a custom view component](#building-a-custom-view-component)._
**Customizing Nested Views within 'Edit' in Globals**
Similar to collections, Globals allow for detailed customization within the `Edit` view. This includes the ability to swap specific nested views while maintaining the overall structure of the `Edit` view. You can use the `admin.components.views.Edit` property in the Globals configuration to achieve this, and this will only replace the nested view, leaving the page breadcrumbs, title, and tabs intact.
Here's how you can customize nested views within the `Edit` view in Globals, including the use of the `actions` property:
```ts
// Global.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: {
Default: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalDefaultTab,
actions: [GlobalEditButton], // Custom actions for the default edit view
},
API: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalAPIView,
actions: [GlobalAPIButton], // Custom actions for API view
},
LivePreview: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalLivePreviewView,
actions: [GlobalLivePreviewButton], // Custom actions for Live Preview
},
Version: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalVersionView,
actions: [GlobalVersionButton], // Custom actions for Version view
},
Versions: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalVersionsView,
actions: [GlobalVersionsButton], // Custom actions for Versions view
},
},
},
},
},
}
```
You can also add _new_ tabs to the `Edit` view by adding another key to the `components.views.Edit[key]` object with a `path` and `Component` property. See [Custom Tabs](#custom-tabs) for more information.
### Custom Tabs
You can easily swap individual collection or global edit views. To do this, pass an _object_ to the `admin.components.views.Edit` property of the config. Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
// You can also define `components.views.Edit` as a component, this will override _all_ nested views
Default: MyCustomDefaultTab,
Versions: MyCustomVersionsTab,
Version: MyCustomVersionTab,
API: MyCustomAPITab,
LivePreview: MyCustomLivePreviewTab,
},
},
},
},
}
```
To add a _new_ tab to the `Edit` view, simply add another key to `components.views.Edit[key]` with at least a `path` and `Component` property. For example:
| **`user`** | The currently logged in user. Will be `null` if no user is logged in. |
| **`canAccessAdmin`** \* | If the currently logged in user is allowed to access the admin panel or not. |
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
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.
</Banner>
#### Example
You can find examples of custom views in the [Payload source code `/test/admin/components/views` folder](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/test/admin/components/views). There, you'll find two custom views:
1. A custom view that uses the `DefaultTemplate`, which is the built-in Payload template that displays the sidebar and "eyebrow nav"
1. A custom view that uses the `MinimalTemplate` - which is just a centered template used for things like logging in or out
To see how to pass in your custom views to create custom views of your own, take a look at the `admin.components.views` property of the [Payload test admin config](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/test/admin/config.ts).
### Fields
All Payload fields support the ability to swap in your own React components. So, for example, instead of rendering a default Text input, you might need to render a color picker that provides the editor with a custom color picker interface to restrict the data entered to colors only.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
Don't see a built-in field type that you need? Build it! Using a combination of custom validation
and custom components, you can override the entirety of how a component functions within the admin
panel and effectively create your own field type.
</Banner>
**Fields support the following custom components:**
| **`Filter`** | Override the text input that is presented in the `List` view when a user is filtering documents by the customized field. |
| **`Cell`** | Used in the `List` view's table to represent a table-based preview of the data stored in the field. [More](#cell-component) |
| **`Field`** | Swap out the field itself within all `Edit` views. [More](#field-component) |
As an alternative to replacing the entire Field component, you may want to keep the majority of the default Field component and only swap components within. This allows you to replace the **`Label`** or **`Error`** within a field component or add additional components inside the field with **`beforeInput`** or **`afterInput`**. **`beforeInput`** and **`afterInput`** are allowed in any fields that don't contain other fields, except [UI](/docs/fields/ui) and [Rich Text](/docs/fields/rich-text).
When writing your own custom components you can make use of a number of hooks to set data, get reactive changes to other fields, get the id of the document or interact with a context from a custom provider.
### Sending and receiving values from the form
When swapping out the `Field` component, you'll be responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself. To do so, import the `useField` hook as follows:
```tsx
import { useField } from 'payload/components/forms'
| **`showError`** | A boolean value that represents if the error should be shown. |
#### Example
```tsx
import React from 'react'
type Props = {
message: string
showError?: boolean
}
const CustomError: React.FC<Props> = (props) => {
const { message, showError } = props
if (showError) {
return <p style={{ color: 'red' }}>{message}</p>
} else return null
}
```
## afterInput and beforeInput
With these properties you can add multiple components before and after the input element. For example, you can add an absolutely positioned button to clear the current field value.
#### Example
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { Field } from 'payload/types'
import './style.scss'
const ClearButton: React.FC = () => {
return (
<button
onClick={() => {
/* ... */
}}
>
X
</button>
)
}
const titleField: Field = {
name: 'title',
type: 'text',
admin: {
components: {
afterInput: [ClearButton],
},
},
}
export default titleField
```
## Custom providers
As your admin customizations gets more complex you may want to share state between fields or other components. You can add custom providers to do add your own context to any Payload app for use in other custom components within the admin panel. Within your config add `admin.components.providers`, these can be used to share context or provide other custom functionality. Read the [React context](https://reactjs.org/docs/context.html) docs to learn more.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Reminder:</strong> Don't forget to pass the **children** prop through the provider
component for the admin UI to show
</Banner>
### Styling Custom Components
Payload exports its SCSS variables and mixins for reuse in your own custom components. This is helpful in cases where you might want to style a custom input similarly to Payload's built-ini styling, so it blends more thoroughly into the existing admin UI.
To make use of Payload SCSS variables / mixins to use directly in your own components, you can import them as follows:
```
@import '~payload/scss';
```
### Getting the current language
When developing custom components you can support multiple languages to be consistent with Payload's i18n support. The best way to do this is to add your translation resources to the [i18n configuration](https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/i18n) and import `useTranslation` from `@payloadcms/ui/providers/Translation` in your components.
For example:
```tsx
import { useTranslation } from '@payloadcms/ui/providers/Translation'
In any custom component you can get the selected locale with `useLocale` hook. `useLocale` returns the full locale object, consisting of a `label`, `rtl`(right-to-left) property, and then `code`. Here is a simple example:
```tsx
import { useLocale } from 'payload/components/utilities'

desc: Customize the Payload Admin Panel further by adding your own CSS or SCSS style sheet to the configuration, powerful theme and design options are waiting for you.
Customizing the Payload [Admin Panel](./overview) through CSS alone is one of the easiest and most powerful ways to customize the look and feel of the dashboard. To allow for this level of customization, Payload:
You can add your own CSS by providing your base Payload config with a path to your own CSS or SCSS. Customize the styling of any part of the Payload dashboard as necessary.
1. Exposes a [root-level stylesheet](#global-css) for you to inject custom selectors
1. Provides a [CSS library](#css-library) that can be easily overridden or extended
1. Uses [BEM naming conventions](http://getbem.com) so that class names are globally accessible
To do so, provide your base Payload config with a path to your own stylesheet. It can be either a CSS or SCSS file.
To customize the CSS within the Admin UI, determine scope and change you'd like to make, and then add your own CSS or SCSS to the configuration as needed.
**Example in payload.config.js:**
## Global CSS
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import path from 'path'
Global CSS refers to the CSS that is applied to the entire [Admin Panel](./overview). This is where you can have a significant impact to the look and feel of the Admin UI through just a few lines of code.
You can add your own global CSS through the root `custom.scss` file of your app. This file is loaded into the root of the Admin Panel and can be used to inject custom selectors or styles however needed.
Here is an example of how you might target the Dashboard View and change the background color:
```scss
.dashboard {
background-color: red; // highlight-line
}
```
### Overriding built-in styles
To make it as easy as possible for you to override our styles, Payload uses [BEM naming conventions](http://getbem.com/) for all CSS within the Admin UI. If you provide your own CSS, you can override any built-in styles easily.
In addition to adding your own style definitions, you can also override Payload's built-in CSS variables. We use as much as possible behind the scenes, and you can override any of them that you'd like to.
You can find the built-in Payload CSS variables within [`./src/admin/scss/app.scss`](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/admin/scss/app.scss) and [`./src/admin/scss/colors.scss`](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/admin/scss/colors.scss). The following variables are defined and can be overridden:
- Breakpoints
- Base color shades (white to black by default)
- Success / warning / error color shades
- Theme-specific colors (background, input background, text color, etc.)
- Elevation colors (used to determine how "bright" something should be when compared to the background)
- Fonts
- Horizontal gutter
#### Dark mode
<Banner type="warning">
If you're overriding colors or theme elevations, make sure to consider how your changes will
affect dark mode.
**Note:** If you are building [Custom
Components](../custom-components/overview), it is best to import your own
stylesheets directly into your components, rather than using the global
stylesheet. You can continue to use the [CSS library](#css-library) as needed.
</Banner>
By default, Payload automatically overrides all `--theme-elevation`s and inverts all success / warning / error shades to suit dark mode. We also update some base theme variables like `--theme-bg`, `--theme-text`, etc.
### Specificity rules
All Payload CSS is encapsulated inside CSS layers under `@layer payload-default`. Any custom css will now have the highest possible specificity.
We have also provided a layer `@layer payload` if you want to use layers and ensure that your styles are applied after payload.
To override existing styles in a way that the previous rules of specificity would be respected you can use the default layer like so
```css
@layer payload-default {
// my styles within the payload specificity
}
```
## Re-using Payload SCSS variables and utilities
You can re-use Payload's SCSS variables and utilities in your own stylesheets by importing it from the UI package.
```scss
@import '~@payloadcms/ui/scss';
```
## CSS Library
To make it as easy as possible for you to override default styles, Payload uses [BEM naming conventions](http://getbem.com/) for all CSS within the Admin UI. If you provide your own CSS, you can override any built-in styles easily, including targeting nested components and their various component states.
You can also override Payload's built-in [CSS Variables](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Using_CSS_custom_properties). These variables are widely consumed by the Admin Panel, so modifying them has a significant impact on the look and feel of the Admin UI.
The following variables are defined and can be overridden:
For an up-to-date, comprehensive list of all available variables, please refer to the [Source Code](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/ui/src/scss).
<Banner type="warning">
**Warning:** If you're overriding colors or theme elevations, make sure to
consider how [your changes will affect dark mode](#dark-mode).
</Banner>
#### Dark Mode
Colors are designed to automatically adapt to theme of the [Admin Panel](./overview). By default, Payload automatically overrides all `--theme-elevation` colors and inverts all success / warning / error shades to suit dark mode. We also update some base theme variables like `--theme-bg`, `--theme-text`, etc.
This key will automatically be made available to the Payload bundle and can be referenced in your Admin component code as `process.env.PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY`.
desc: Learn how to exclude server-only code from the Payload Admin UI bundle
---
Because the Admin Panel browser bundle includes your Payload Config file, files using server-only modules need to be excluded.
It's common for your config to rely on server only modules to perform logic in access control functions, hooks, and other contexts.
Any file that imports a server-only module such as `fs`, `stripe`, `authorizenet`, `nodemailer`, etc. **cannot** be included in the browser bundle.
#### Example Scenario
Say we have a collection called `Subscriptions` that has a `beforeChange` hook that creates a Stripe subscription whenever a Subscription document is created in Payload.
**Collection config**:
```ts
// collections/Subscriptions/index.ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types'
import createStripeSubscription from './hooks/createStripeSubscription'
The above code is NOT production-ready and should not be referenced to create Stripe
subscriptions. Although creating a beforeChange hook is a completely valid spot to do things like
create subscriptions, the code above is incomplete and insecure, meant for explanation purposes
only.
</Banner>
**As-is, this collection will prevent your Admin panel from bundling or loading correctly, because Stripe relies on some Node-only packages.**
#### How to fix this
You need to make sure that you use `alias`es to tell your bundler to import "safe" files vs. attempting to import any server-side code that you need to get rid of. Depending on your bundler (Webpack, Vite, etc.) the steps involved may be slightly different.
The basic idea is to create a file that exports an empty object, and then alias import paths of any files that import server-only modules to that empty object file.
This way when your bundler goes to import a file that contains server-only modules, it will instead import the empty object file, which will not break the browser bundle.
### Aliasing server-only modules
To remove files that contain server-only modules from your bundle, you can use an `alias`.
In the Subscriptions config file above, we are importing the hook like so:
```ts
// collections/Subscriptions/index.ts
import createStripeSubscription from './hooks/createStripeSubscription'
```
By default the browser bundle will now include all the code from that file and any files down the tree. We know that the file imports `stripe`.
To fix this, we need to alias the `createStripeSubscription` file to a different file that can safely be included in the browser bundle.
First, we will create a mock file to replace the server-only file when bundling:
```js
// mocks/modules.js
export default {}
/**
* NOTE: if you are destructuring an import
* the mock file will need to export matching
* variables as the destructured object.
*
* export const namedExport = {}
*/
```
Aliasing with [Webpack](/docs/admin/webpack) can be done by:
```ts
// payload.config.ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import { webpackBundler } from '@payloadcms/bundler-webpack'
import { Subscriptions } from './collections/Subscriptions'
Payload provides a variety of powerful hooks that can be used within your own React components. With them, you can interface with Payload itself and build just about any type of complex customization you can think of—directly in familiar React code.
### useField
The `useField` hook is used internally within every applicable Payload field component, and it manages sending and receiving a field's state from its parent form.
Outside of internal use, its most common use-case is in custom `Field` components. When you build a custom React `Field` component, you'll be responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself. To do so, import the `useField` hook as follows:
```tsx
import { useField } from 'payload/components/forms'
The `useField` hook accepts an `args` object and sends back information and helpers for you to make use of:
```ts
const field = useField<string>({
path: 'fieldPathHere', // required
validate: myValidateFunc, // optional
disableFormData?: false, // if true, the field's data will be ignored
condition?: myConditionHere, // optional, used to skip validation if condition fails
})
// Here is what `useField` sends back
const {
showError, // whether or not the field should show as errored
errorMessage, // the error message to show, if showError
value, // the current value of the field from the form
formSubmitted, // if the form has been submitted
formProcessing, // if the form is currently processing
setValue, // method to set the field's value in form state
initialValue, // the initial value that the field mounted with
} = field;
// The rest of your component goes here
```
### useFormFields
There are times when a custom field component needs to have access to data from other fields, and you have a few options to do so. The `useFormFields` hook is a powerful and highly performant way to retrieve a form's field state, as well as to retrieve the `dispatchFields` method, which can be helpful for setting other fields' form states from anywhere within a form.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>This hook is great for retrieving only certain fields from form state</strong> because it
ensures that it will only cause a rerender when the items that you ask for change.
</Banner>
Thanks to the awesome package [`use-context-selector`](https://github.com/dai-shi/use-context-selector), you can retrieve a specific field's state easily. This is ideal because you can ensure you have an up-to-date field state, and your component will only re-render when _that field's state_ changes.
You can pass a Redux-like selector into the hook, which will ensure that you retrieve only the field that you want. The selector takes an argument with type of `[fields: Fields, dispatch: React.Dispatch<Action>]]`.
```tsx
import { useFormFields } from 'payload/components/forms'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// Get only the `amount` field state, and only cause a rerender when that field changes
return <span>The fee is ${(amount.value * feePercentage.value) / 100}</span>
}
}
```
### useAllFormFields
**To retrieve more than one field**, you can use the `useAllFormFields` hook. Your component will re-render when _any_ field changes, so use this hook only if you absolutely need to. Unlike the `useFormFields` hook, this hook does not accept a "selector", and it always returns an array with type of `[fields: Fields, dispatch: React.Dispatch<Action>]]`.
You can do lots of powerful stuff by retrieving the full form state, like using built-in helper functions to reduce field state to values only, or to retrieve sibling data by path.
```tsx
import { useAllFormFields, reduceFieldsToValues, getSiblingData } from 'payload/components/forms';
const ExampleComponent: React.FC = () => {
// the `fields` const will be equal to all fields' state,
// and the `dispatchFields` method is usable to send field state up to the form
If you are building a custom component, then you should use `setValue` which is returned from the `useField` hook to programmatically set your field's value. But if you're looking to update _another_ field's value, you can use `dispatchFields` returned from `useFormFields`.
You can send the following actions to the `dispatchFields` function.
| **`ADD_ROW`** | Adds a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`DUPLICATE_ROW`** | Duplicates a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`MODIFY_CONDITION`** | Updates a field's conditional logic result (true / false) |
| **`MOVE_ROW`** | Moves a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`REMOVE`** | Removes a field from form state |
| **`REMOVE_ROW`** | Removes a row of data from form state (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`REPLACE_STATE`** | Completely replaces form state |
| **`UPDATE`** | Update any property of a specific field's state |
To see types for each action supported within the `dispatchFields` hook, check out the Form types [here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/admin/components/forms/Form/types.ts).
### useForm
The `useForm` hook can be used to interact with the form itself, and sends back many methods that can be used to reactively fetch form state without causing rerenders within your components each time a field is changed. This is useful if you have action-based callbacks that your components fire, and need to interact with form state _based on a user action_.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Warning:</strong>
<br />
This hook is optimized to avoid causing rerenders when fields change, and as such, its `fields`
property will be out of date. You should only leverage this hook if you need to perform actions
against the form in response to your users' actions. Do not rely on its returned "fields" as being
up-to-date. They will be removed from this hook's response in an upcoming version.
</Banner>
The `useForm` hook returns an object with the following properties: |
<TableWithDrawers
columns={[
'Action',
'Description',
'Example',
]}
rows={[
[
{
value: <strong><code>fields</code></strong>,
},
{
value: "Deprecated. This property cannot be relied on as up-to-date.",
In any custom component you can get the selected locale object with the `useLocale` hook. `useLocale`gives you the full locale object, consisting of a `label`, `rtl`(right-to-left) property, and then `code`. Here is a simple example:
```tsx
import { useLocale } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const locale = useLocale()
// highlight-end
const trans = {
en: 'Hello',
es: 'Hola',
}
return <span> {trans[locale.code]} </span>
}
```
### useAuth
Useful to retrieve info about the currently logged in user as well as methods for interacting with it. It sends back an object with the following properties:
| **`logOut`** | A method to log out the currently logged in user |
| **`refreshCookie`** | A method to trigger the silent refreshing of a user's auth token |
| **`setToken`** | Set the token of the user, to be decoded and used to reset the user and token in memory |
| **`token`** | The logged in user's token (useful for creating preview links, etc.) |
| **`refreshPermissions`** | Load new permissions (useful when content that effects permissions has been changed) |
| **`permissions`** | The permissions of the current user |
```tsx
import { useAuth } from 'payload/components/utilities'
import { User } from '../payload-types.ts'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const { user } = useAuth<User>()
// highlight-end
return <span>Hi, {user.email}!</span>
}
```
### useConfig
Used to easily fetch the full Payload config.
```tsx
import { useConfig } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const config = useConfig()
// highlight-end
return <span>{config.serverURL}</span>
}
```
### useEditDepth
Sends back how many editing levels "deep" the current component is. Edit depth is relevant while adding new documents / editing documents in modal windows and other cases.
```tsx
import { useEditDepth } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const editDepth = useEditDepth()
// highlight-end
return <span>My component is {editDepth} levels deep</span>
}
```
### usePreferences
Returns methods to set and get user preferences. More info can be found [here](https://payloadcms.com/docs/admin/preferences).
### useTheme
Returns the currently selected theme (`light`, `dark` or `auto`), a set function to update it and a boolean `autoMode`, used to determine if the theme value should be set automatically based on the user's device preferences.
```tsx
import { useTheme } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const { autoMode, setTheme, theme } = useTheme()
// highlight-end
return (
<>
<span>
The current theme is {theme} and autoMode is {autoMode}
The `useDocumentEvents` hook provides a way of subscribing to cross-document events, such as updates made to nested documents within a drawer. This hook will report document events that are outside the scope of the document currently being edited. This hook provides the following:
| **`mostRecentUpdate`** | An object containing the most recently updated document. It contains the `entitySlug`, `id` (if collection), and `updatedAt` properties |
| **`reportUpdate`** | A method used to report updates to documents. It accepts the same arguments as the `mostRecentUpdate` property. |
**Example:**
```tsx
import { useDocumentEvents } from 'payload/components/hooks'
Document locking in Payload ensures that only one user at a time can edit a document, preventing data conflicts and accidental overwrites. When a document is locked, other users are prevented from making changes until the lock is released, ensuring data integrity in collaborative environments.
The lock is automatically triggered when a user begins editing a document within the Admin Panel and remains in place until the user exits the editing view or the lock expires due to inactivity.
## How it works
When a user starts editing a document, Payload locks it for that user. If another user attempts to access the same document, they will be notified that it is currently being edited. They can then choose one of the following options:
- View in Read-Only: View the document without the ability to make any changes.
- Take Over: Take over editing from the current user, which locks the document for the new editor and notifies the original user.
- Return to Dashboard: Navigate away from the locked document and continue with other tasks.
The lock will automatically expire after a set period of inactivity, configurable using the `duration` property in the `lockDocuments` configuration, after which others can resume editing.
<Banner type="info">
{' '}
**Note:** If your application does not require document locking, you can
disable this feature for any collection or global by setting the
`lockDocuments` property to `false`.{' '}
</Banner>
### Config Options
The `lockDocuments` property exists on both the Collection Config and the Global Config. Document locking is enabled by default, but you can customize the lock duration or turn off the feature for any collection or global.
Here's an example configuration for document locking:
| **`lockDocuments`** | Enables or disables document locking for the collection or global. By default, document locking is enabled. Set to an object to configure, or set to false to disable locking. |
| **`duration`** | Specifies the duration (in seconds) for how long a document remains locked without user interaction. The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes). |
### Impact on APIs
Document locking affects both the Local and REST APIs, ensuring that if a document is locked, concurrent users will not be able to perform updates or deletes on that document (including globals). If a user attempts to update or delete a locked document, they will receive an error.
Once the document is unlocked or the lock duration has expired, other users can proceed with updates or deletes as normal.
#### Overriding Locks
For operations like `update` and `delete`, Payload includes an `overrideLock` option. This boolean flag, when set to `false`, enforces document locks, ensuring that the operation will not proceed if another user currently holds the lock.
By default, `overrideLock` is set to `true`, which means that document locks are ignored, and the operation will proceed even if the document is locked. To enforce locks and prevent updates or deletes on locked documents, set `overrideLock: false`.
```ts
const result = await payload.update({
collection: 'posts',
id: '123',
data: {
title: 'New title',
},
overrideLock: false, // Enforces the document lock, preventing updates if the document is locked
})
```
This option is particularly useful in scenarios where administrative privileges or specific workflows require you to override the lock and ensure the operation is completed.
Every page within the Admin Panel automatically receives dynamic, auto-generated metadata derived from live document data, the user's current locale, and more. This includes the page title, description, og:image, etc. and requires no additional configuration.
Metadata is fully configurable at the root level and cascades down to individual collections, documents, and custom views. This allows for the ability to control metadata on any page with high precision, while also providing sensible defaults.
All metadata is injected into Next.js' [`generateMetadata`](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/generate-metadata) function. This used to generate the `<head>` of pages within the Admin Panel. All metadata options that are available in Next.js are exposed by Payload.
Within the Admin Panel, metadata can be customized at the following levels:
- [Root Metadata](#root-metadata)
- [Collection Metadata](#collection-metadata)
- [Global Metadata](#global-metadata)
- [View Metadata](#view-metadata)
All of these types of metadata share a similar structure, with a few key differences on the Root level. To customize metadata, consult the list of available scopes. Determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then author your metadata within the Payload Config accordingly.
## Root Metadata
Root Metadata is the metadata that is applied to all pages within the Admin Panel. This is where you can control things like the suffix appended onto each page's title, the favicon displayed in the browser's tab, and the Open Graph data that is used when sharing the Admin Panel on social media.
To customize Root Metadata, use the `admin.meta` key in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
meta: {
// highlight-end
title: 'My Admin Panel',
description: 'The best admin panel in the world',
icons: [
{
rel: 'icon',
type: 'image/png',
url: '/favicon.png',
},
],
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Root Metadata:
| `defaultOGImageType` | `dynamic` (default), `static`, or `off` | The type of default OG image to use. If set to `dynamic`, Payload will use Next.js image generation to create an image with the title of the page. If set to `static`, Payload will use the `defaultOGImage` URL. If set to `off`, Payload will not generate an OG image. |
| `titleSuffix` | `string` | A suffix to append to the end of the title of every page. Defaults to "- Payload". |
| `[keyof Metadata]` | `unknown` | Any other properties that Next.js supports within the `generateMetadata` function. [More details](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/generate-metadata). |
<Banner type="success">
**Reminder:** These are the _root-level_ options for the Admin Panel. You can
also customize metadata on the [Collection](../configuration/collections),
[Global](../configuration/globals), and Document levels through their
respective configs.
</Banner>
### Icons
The Icons Config corresponds to the `<link>` tags that are used to specify icons for the Admin Panel. The `icons` key is an array of objects, each of which represents an individual icon. Icons are differentiated from one another by their `rel` attribute, which specifies the relationship between the document and the icon.
The most common icon type is the favicon, which is displayed in the browser tab. This is specified by the `rel` attribute `icon`. Other common icon types include `apple-touch-icon`, which is used by Apple devices when the Admin Panel is saved to the home screen, and `mask-icon`, which is used by Safari to mask the Admin Panel icon.
To customize icons, use the `admin.meta.icons` property in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
meta: {
// highlight-start
icons: [
// highlight-end
{
rel: 'icon',
type: 'image/png',
url: '/favicon.png',
},
{
rel: 'apple-touch-icon',
type: 'image/png',
url: '/apple-touch-icon.png',
},
],
},
},
}
```
For a full list of all available Icon options, see the [Next.js documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/generate-metadata#icons).
### Open Graph
Open Graph metadata is a set of tags that are used to control how URLs are displayed when shared on social media platforms. Open Graph metadata is automatically generated by Payload, but can be customized at the Root level.
To customize Open Graph metadata, use the `admin.meta.openGraph` property in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
meta: {
// highlight-start
openGraph: {
// highlight-end
description: 'The best admin panel in the world',
images: [
{
url: 'https://example.com/image.jpg',
width: 800,
height: 600,
},
],
siteName: 'Payload',
title: 'My Admin Panel',
},
},
},
}
```
For a full list of all available Open Graph options, see the [Next.js documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/generate-metadata#opengraph).
### Robots
Setting the `robots` property will allow you to control the `robots` meta tag that is rendered within the `<head>` of the Admin Panel. This can be used to control how search engines index pages and displays them in search results.
By default, the Admin Panel is set to prevent search engines from indexing pages within the Admin Panel.
To customize the Robots Config, use the `admin.meta.robots` property in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
meta: {
// highlight-start
robots: 'noindex, nofollow',
// highlight-end
},
},
}
```
For a full list of all available Robots options, see the [Next.js documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/generate-metadata#robots).
##### 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.
```text
User-agent: *
Disallow: /admin/
```
<Banner type="info">
**Note:** If you've customized the path to your Admin Panel via
`config.routes`, be sure to update the `Disallow` directive to match your
custom path.
</Banner>
## Collection Metadata
Collection Metadata is the metadata that is applied to all pages within any given Collection within the Admin Panel. This metadata is used to customize the title and description of all views within any given Collection, unless overridden by the view itself.
To customize Collection Metadata, use the `admin.meta` key within your Collection Config:
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
meta: {
// highlight-end
title: 'My Collection',
description: 'The best collection in the world',
},
},
}
```
The Collection Meta config has the same options as the [Root Metadata](#root-metadata) config.
## Global Metadata
Global Metadata is the metadata that is applied to all pages within any given Global within the Admin Panel. This metadata is used to customize the title and description of all views within any given Global, unless overridden by the view itself.
To customize Global Metadata, use the `admin.meta` key within your Global Config:
```ts
import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyGlobal: GlobalConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
meta: {
// highlight-end
title: 'My Global',
description: 'The best admin panel in the world',
},
},
}
```
The Global Meta config has the same options as the [Root Metadata](#root-metadata) config.
## View Metadata
View Metadata is the metadata that is applied to specific [Views](../custom-components/custom-views) within the Admin Panel. This metadata is used to customize the title and description of a specific view, overriding any metadata set at the [Root](#root-metadata), [Collection](#collection-metadata), or [Global](#global-metadata) level.
To customize View Metadata, use the `meta` key within your View Config:

Payload dynamically generates a beautiful, fully functional React admin panel to manage your data. It's extremely powerful and can be customized / extended upon easily by swapping in your own React components. You can add additional views, modify how built-in views look / work, swap out Payload branding for your client's, build your own field types and much more.
Payload dynamically generates a beautiful, [fully type-safe](../typescript/overview) Admin Panel to manage your users and data. It is highly performant, even with 100+ fields, and is translated in over 30 languages. Within the Admin Panel you can manage content, [render your site](../live-preview/overview), [preview drafts](./preview), [diff versions](../versions/overview), and so much more.
The Payload Admin panel can be bundled with our officially supported [Vite](/docs/admin/vite) and [webpack](/docs/admin/webpack) bundlers or you can integrate another bundler following our adapter pattern approach.
When bundled, it is code-split, highly performant (even with 100+ fields), and written fully in TypeScript.
The Admin Panel is designed to [white-label your brand](https://payloadcms.com/blog/white-label-admin-ui). You can endlessly customize and extend the Admin UI by swapping in your own [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview)—everything from simple field labels to entire views can be modified or replaced to perfectly tailor the interface for your editors.
The Admin Panel is written in [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org) and built with [React](https://react.dev) using the [Next.js App Router](https://nextjs.org/docs/app). It supports [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components), enabling the use of the [Local API](/docs/local-api/overview) on the front-end. You can install Payload into any [existing Next.js app in just one line](../getting-started/installation) and [deploy it anywhere](../production/deployment).
<Banner type="success">
The Admin panel is meant to be simple enough to give you a starting point but not bring too much
complexity, so that you can easily customize it to suit the needs of your application and your
editors.
The Payload Admin Panel is designed to be as minimal and straightforward as
possible to allow easy customization and control. [Learn

/>
## Project Structure
The Admin Panel serves as the entire HTTP layer for Payload, providing a full CRUD interface for your app. This means that both the [REST](../rest-api/overview) and [GraphQL](../graphql/overview) APIs are simply [Next.js Routes](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/routing) that exist directly alongside your front-end application.
Once you [install Payload](../getting-started/installation), the following files and directories will be created in your app:
```plaintext
app/
├─ (payload)/
├── admin/
├─── [[...segments]]/
├──── page.tsx
├──── not-found.tsx
├── api/
├─── [...slug]/
├──── route.ts
├── graphql/
├──── route.ts
├── graphql-playground/
├──── route.ts
├── custom.scss
├── layout.tsx
```
<Banner type="info">
If you are not familiar with Next.js project structure, you can [learn more
about it here](https://nextjs.org/docs/getting-started/project-structure).
</Banner>
As shown above, all Payload routes are nested within the `(payload)` route group. This creates a boundary between the Admin Panel and the rest of your application by scoping all layouts and styles. The `layout.tsx` file within this directory, for example, is where Payload manages the `html` tag of the document to set proper [`lang`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/lang) and [`dir`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/dir) attributes, etc.
The `admin` directory contains all the _pages_ related to the interface itself, whereas the `api` and `graphql` directories contains all the _routes_ related to the [REST API](../rest-api/overview) and [GraphQL API](../graphql/overview). All admin routes are [easily configurable](#customizing-routes) to meet your application's exact requirements.
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** If you don't intend to use the Admin Panel, [REST
API](../rest-api/overview), or [GraphQL API](../graphql/overview), you can
opt-out by simply deleting their corresponding directories within your Next.js
app. The overhead, however, is completely constrained to these routes, and
will not slow down or affect Payload outside when not in use.
</Banner>
Finally, the `custom.scss` file is where you can add or override globally-oriented styles in the Admin Panel, such as modify the color palette. Customizing the look and feel through CSS alone is a powerful feature of the Admin Panel, [more on that here](./customizing-css).
All auto-generated files will contain the following comments at the top of each file:
```tsx
/* THIS FILE WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY BY PAYLOAD. */,
/* DO NOT MODIFY IT BECAUSE IT COULD BE REWRITTEN AT ANY TIME. */
```
## Admin Options
All options for the Admin panel are defined in your base Payload config file.
All options for the Admin Panel are defined in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview) under the `admin` property:
| `bundler` | The bundler that you would like to use to bundle the admin panel. Officially supported bundlers: [Webpack](/docs/admin/webpack) and [Vite](/docs/admin/vite). |
| `user` | The `slug` of a Collection that you want be used to log in to the Admin dashboard. [More](/docs/admin/overview#the-admin-user-collection) |
| `buildPath` | Specify an absolute path for where to store the built Admin panel bundle used in production. Defaults to `path.resolve(process.cwd(), 'build')`. |

| `disable` | If set to `true`, the entire Admin panel will be disabled. |
| `indexHTML` | Optionally replace the entirety of the `index.html` file used by the Admin panel. Reference the [base index.html file](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/admin/index.html) to ensure your replacement has the appropriate HTML elements. |
| `css` | Absolute path to a stylesheet that you can use to override / customize the Admin panel styling. [More](/docs/admin/customizing-css). |
| `scss` | Absolute path to a Sass variables / mixins stylesheet meant to override Payload styles to make for an easy re-skinning of the Admin panel. [More](/docs/admin/customizing-css#overriding-scss-variables). |
| `dateFormat` | Global date format that will be used for all dates in the Admin panel. Any valid [date-fns](https://date-fns.org/) format pattern can be used. |

| **`avatar`** | Set account profile picture. Options: `gravatar`, `default` or a custom React component. |
| **`autoLogin`** | Used to automate log-in for dev and demonstration convenience. [More details](../authentication/overview). |
| **`buildPath`** | Specify an absolute path for where to store the built Admin bundle used in production. Defaults to `path.resolve(process.cwd(), 'build')`. |
| **`components`** | Component overrides that affect the entirety of the Admin Panel. [More details](../custom-components/overview). |
| **`custom`** | Any custom properties you wish to pass to the Admin Panel. |
| **`dateFormat`** | The date format that will be used for all dates within the Admin Panel. Any valid [date-fns](https://date-fns.org/) format pattern can be used. |
| **`livePreview`** | Enable real-time editing for instant visual feedback of your front-end application. [More details](../live-preview/overview). |
| **`meta`** | Base metadata to use for the Admin Panel. [More details](./metadata). |
| **`routes`** | Replace built-in Admin Panel routes with your own custom routes. [More details](#customizing-routes). |
| **`suppressHydrationWarning`** | If set to `true`, suppresses React hydration mismatch warnings during the hydration of the root `<html>` tag. Defaults to `false`. |
| **`theme`** | Restrict the Admin Panel theme to use only one of your choice. Default is `all`. |
| **`timezones`** | Configure the timezone settings for the admin panel. [More details](#timezones) |
| **`user`** | The `slug` of the Collection that you want to allow to login to the Admin Panel. [More details](#the-admin-user-collection). |
<Banner type="success">
**Reminder:** These are the _root-level_ options for the Admin Panel. You can
also customize [Collection Admin
Options](../configuration/collections#admin-options) and [Global Admin
Options](../configuration/globals#admin-options) through their respective
`admin` keys.
</Banner>
### The Admin User Collection
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
The Payload Admin panel can only be used by one Collection that supports
[Authentication](/docs/authentication/overview).
</Banner>
To specify which Collection to use to log in to the Admin panel, pass the `admin` options a `user` key equal to the slug of the Collection that you'd like to use.
`payload.config.js`:
To specify which Collection to allow to login to the Admin Panel, pass the `admin.user` key equal to the slug of any auth-enabled Collection:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
user: 'admins', // highlight-line
},
})
```
By default, if you have not specified a Collection, Payload will automatically provide you with a `User` Collection which will be used to access the Admin panel. You can customize or override the fields and settings of the default `User` Collection by passing your own collection using `users` as its `slug` to Payload. When this is done, Payload will use your provided `User` Collection instead of its default version.
<Banner type="warning">
**Important:**
**Note: you can use whatever Collection you'd like to access the Admin panel as long as the Collection supports Authentication. It doesn't need to be called `users`!**
The Admin Panel can only be used by a single auth-enabled Collection. To enable authentication for a Collection, simply set `auth: true` in the Collection's configuration. See [Authentication](../authentication/overview) for more information.
For example, you may wish to have two Collections that both support `Authentication`:
</Banner>
- `admins` - meant to have a higher level of permissions to manage your data and access the Admin panel
- `customers` - meant for end users of your app that should not be allowed to log into the Admin panel
By default, if you have not specified a Collection, Payload will automatically provide a `User` Collection with access to the Admin Panel. You can customize or override the fields and settings of the default `User` Collection by adding your own Collection with `slug: 'users'`. Doing this will force Payload to use your provided `User` Collection instead of its default version.
This is totally possible. For the above scenario, by specifying `admin: { user: 'admins' }`, your Payload Admin panel will use `admins`. Any users logged in as `customers` will not be able to log in via the Admin panel.
You can use whatever Collection you'd like to access the Admin Panel as long as the Collection supports [Authentication](/docs/authentication/overview). It doesn't need to be called `users`. For example, you may wish to have two Collections that both support authentication:
### Light and dark modes
- `admins` - meant to have a higher level of permissions to manage your data and access the Admin Panel
- `customers` - meant for end users of your app that should not be allowed to log into the Admin Panel
Users in the admin panel have access to choosing between light mode and dark mode for their editing experience. The setting is managed while logged into the admin UI within the user account page and will be stored with the browser. By default, the operating system preference is detected and used.
To do this, specify `admin: { user: 'admins' }` in your config. This will provide access to the Admin Panel to only `admins`. Any users authenticated as `customers` will be prevented from accessing the Admin Panel. See [Access Control](/docs/access-control/overview) for full details.
### Restricting user access
### Role-based Access Control
If you would like to restrict which users from a single Collection can access the Admin panel, you can use the `admin` access control function. [Click here](/docs/access-control/overview#admin) to learn more.
It is also possible to allow multiple user types into the Admin Panel with limited permissions, known as role-based access control (RBAC). For example, you may wish to have two roles within the `admins` Collection:
- `super-admin` - full access to the Admin Panel to perform any action
- `editor` - limited access to the Admin Panel to only manage content
To do this, add a `roles` or similar field to your auth-enabled Collection, then use the `access.admin` property to grant or deny access based on the value of that field. See [Access Control](/docs/access-control/overview) for full details. For a complete, working example of role-based access control, check out the official [Auth Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/auth).
## Customizing Routes
You have full control over the routes that Payload binds itself to. This includes both [Root-level Routes](#root-level-routes) such as the [REST API](../rest-api/overview), and [Admin-level Routes](#admin-level-routes) such as the user's account page. You can customize these routes to meet the needs of your application simply by specifying the desired paths in your config.
### Root-level Routes
Root-level routes are those that are not behind the `/admin` path, such as the [REST API](../rest-api/overview) and [GraphQL API](../graphql/overview), or the root path of the Admin Panel itself.
To customize root-level routes, use the `routes` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
| `api` | `/api` | The [REST API](../rest-api/overview) base path. |
| `graphQL` | `/graphql` | The [GraphQL API](../graphql/overview) base path. |
| `graphQLPlayground` | `/graphql-playground` | The GraphQL Playground. |
<Banner type="success">
**Tip:** You can easily add _new_ routes to the Admin Panel through [Custom
Endpoints](../rest-api/overview#custom-endpoints) and [Custom
Views](../custom-components/custom-views).
</Banner>
#### Customizing Root-level Routes
You can change the Root-level Routes as needed, such as to mount the Admin Panel at the root of your application.
Changing Root-level Routes also requires a change to [Project Structure](#project-structure) to match the new route. For example, if you set `routes.admin` to `/`, you would need to completely remove the `admin` directory from the project structure:
```plaintext
app/
├─ (payload)/
├── [[...segments]]/
├──── ...
```
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** If you set Root-level Routes _before_ auto-generating the Admin
Panel via `create-payload-app`, your [Project Structure](#project-structure)
will already be set up correctly.
</Banner>
### Admin-level Routes
Admin-level routes are those behind the `/admin` path. These are the routes that are part of the Admin Panel itself, such as the user's account page, the login page, etc.
To customize admin-level routes, use the `admin.routes` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
| `account` | `/account` | The user's account page. |
| `createFirstUser` | `/create-first-user` | The page to create the first user. |
| `forgot` | `/forgot` | The password reset page. |
| `inactivity` | `/logout-inactivity` | The page to redirect to after inactivity. |
| `login` | `/login` | The login page. |
| `logout` | `/logout` | The logout page. |

## I18n
The Payload Admin Panel is translated in over [30 languages and counting](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/packages/translations). Languages are automatically detected based on the user's browser and used by the Admin Panel to display all text in that language. If no language was detected, or if the user's language is not yet supported, English will be chosen. Users can easily specify their language by selecting one from their account page. See [I18n](../configuration/i18n) for more information.
## Light and Dark Modes
Users in the Admin Panel have the ability to choose between light mode and dark mode for their editing experience. Users can select their preferred theme from their account page. Once selected, it is saved to their user's preferences and persisted across sessions and devices. If no theme was selected, the Admin Panel will automatically detect the operation system's theme and use that as the default.
## Timezones
The `admin.timezones` configuration allows you to configure timezone settings for the Admin Panel. You can customise the available list of timezones and in the future configure the default timezone for the Admin Panel and for all users.
| `supportedTimezones` | An array of label/value options for selectable timezones where the value is the IANA name eg. `America/Detroit` |
| `defaultTimezone` | The `value` of the default selected timezone. eg. `America/Los_Angeles` |
We validate the supported timezones array by checking the value against the list of IANA timezones supported via the Intl API, specifically `Intl.supportedValuesOf('timeZone')`.
<Banner type="info">
**Important** You must enable timezones on each individual date field via
`timezone: true`. See [Date Fields](../fields/overview#date) for more
As your users interact with your Admin panel, you might want to store their preferences in a persistent manner, so that when they revisit the Admin panel, they can pick right back up where they left off.
As your users interact with the [Admin Panel](./overview), you might want to store their preferences in a persistent manner, so that when they revisit the Admin Panel in a different session or from a different device, they can pick right back up where they left off.
Out of the box, Payload handles the persistence of your users' preferences in a handful of ways, including:
1. Collection `List` view active columns, and their order, that users define
1. Their last active locale
1. The "collapsed" state of blocks, on a document level, as users edit or interact with documents
1. Columns in the Collection List View: their active state and order
1. The user's last active [Locale](../configuration/localization)
1. The "collapsed" state of `blocks`, `array`, and `collapsible` fields
1. The last-known state of the `Nav` component, etc.

All preferences are stored on an individual user basis. Payload automatically recognizes the user
that is reading or setting a preference via all provided authentication methods.

### Use cases
## Use Cases
This API is used significantly for internal operations of the Admin panel, as mentioned above. But, if you're building your own React components for use in the Admin panel, you can allow users to set their own preferences in correspondence to their usage of your components. For example:
This API is used significantly for internal operations of the Admin Panel, as mentioned above. But, if you're building your own React components for use in the Admin Panel, you can allow users to set their own preferences in correspondence to their usage of your components. For example:
- If you have built a "color picker", you could "remember" the last used colors that the user has set for easy access next time
- If you've built a custom `Nav` component, and you've built in an "accordion-style" UI, you might want to store the `collapsed` state of each Nav collapsible item. This way, if an editor returns to the panel, their `Nav` state is persisted automatically
- You might want to store `recentlyAccessed` documents to give admin editors an easy shortcut back to their recently accessed documents on the `Dashboard` or similar
- Many other use cases exist. Invent your own! Give your editors an intelligent and persistent editing experience.
### Database
## Database
Payload automatically creates an internally used `payload-preferences` collection that stores user preferences. Each document in the `payload-preferences` collection contains the following shape:

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):
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:
| **`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:
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:
The Vite bundler is currently in beta. If you would like to help us test this package, we'd love
to hear from you if you find any [bugs or issues](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/)!
</Banner>
Payload has a Vite bundler that you can install and bundle the Admin Panel with. This is an alternative to the [Webpack](/docs/admin/webpack) bundler and might give some performance boosts to your development workflow.
To use Vite as your bundler, first you need to install the package:
```bash
yarn add @payloadcms/bundler-vite
```
Then you will need to add the [bundler](/docs/admin/bundlers) to your Payload config:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from '@payloadcms/config'
import { viteBundler } from '@payloadcms/bundler-vite'
export default buildConfig({
collections: [],
admin: {
bundler: viteBundler(),
},
})
```
Vite works fundamentally differently than Webpack. In development mode, it will first pre-bundle any of your dependencies that are CommonJS-only, and then it'll leverage ESM directly in your browser for a better HMR experience.
It then uses Rollup to create production builds of your admin UI. With Vite, you should see a decent performance boost—especially after your first cold start. However, that first cold start might take a few more seconds.
<Banner type="warning">
In most cases, Vite should work out of the box. But existing Payload plugins may need to make
compatibility changes to support Vite.
</Banner>
This is because Vite aliases work fundamentally differently than Webpack aliases, and Payload relies on aliasing server-only code out of the Payload config to ensure that the bundled admin JS works within your browser.
Here are the main differences between how Vite aliases work and how Webpack aliases work.
**Vite aliases do not work with absolute paths.**
In Vite, alias keys must <strong>exactly match</strong> a import paths. If you have 2 files that import the same server-only module, but have different import paths, you would need to add 2 aliases to support both import paths.
```ts
// File A
import serverOnlyModule from '../server-only-module'
// File B
import serverOnlyModule from '../../server-only-module'
// payload.config.ts
// You would need to add 2 aliases to support both import paths
**Vite aliases do not get applied to pre-bundled dependencies.**
This especially affects plugins, as plugins will be pre-bundled by Vite using `esbuild`. To get around this and support Vite, plugin authors need to configure an alias to their plugin at the top level, so that the alias will work accordingly.
Here's an example. Say your plugin is called `payload-plugin-cool`. It's imported as follows:
```ts
import { myCoolPlugin } from 'payload-plugin-cool'
```
That plugin should create an alias to support Vite as follows:
This will effectively alias the entire plugin and work with Vite. If the plugin requires admin-specific code, then the `./my-admin-plugin.js` alias target file should reflect any changes necessary to the admin UI that the main server-side plugin performs.
### Extending the Vite config
The Payload config supports a new property for plugins to be able to extend the Vite config specifically. That property exists on the main Payload config under `admin.vite`. You can check out the [Vite docs](https://vitejs.dev/config/shared-options.html) for more information on what you can do with the Vite config.
It's a function that takes a Vite config, and returns an updated Vite config. Here's an example:
Learn more about [aliasing server-only modules](https://payloadcms.com/docs/admin/excluding-server-code#aliasing-server-only-modules).
Even though there is a new property for Vite configs specifically, we have implemented some "compatibility" between Webpack and Vite out-of-the-box.
If your config specifies Webpack aliases, we attempt to leverage them automatically within the Vite config. They are merged into the Vite alias configuration seamlessly and may work out-of-the-box.
desc: The Payload admin panel uses Webpack 5 and supports many common functionalities such as SCSS and Typescript out of the box to give you more freedom.
Payload has a Webpack (v5) bundler that you can build the Admin panel with. For now, we recommended using it because it is stable. If you are feeling a bit more adventurous you can give the [Vite](/docs/admin/vite) bundler a shot.
Out of the box, the Webpack bundler supports common functionalities such as SCSS and Typescript, but there are many cases where you may need to add support for additional functionalities.
#### Installation
```bash
yarn add @payloadcms/bundler-webpack
```
#### Import the bundler
```ts
// payload.config.ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import { webpackBundler } from '@payloadcms/bundler-webpack'
export default buildConfig({
// highlight-start
admin: {
bundler: webpackBundler(),
},
// highlight-end
})
```
### Extending Webpack
If you need to extend the Webpack config, you can do so by passing a function to the `admin.webpack` property on your Payload config.
The function will receive the Webpack config as an argument and should return the modified config.
```ts
// payload.config.ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import { webpackBundler } from '@payloadcms/bundler-webpack'
export default buildConfig({
admin: {
bundler: webpackBundler()
// highlight-start
webpack: (config) => {
// full control of the Webpack config
return config
},
// highlight-end
},
})
```

To integrate with third-party APIs or services, you might need the ability to generate API keys that can be used to identify as a certain user within Payload. API keys are generated on a user-by-user basis, similar to email and passwords, and are meant to represent a single user.
For example, if you have a third-party service or external app that needs to be able to perform protected actions against Payload, first you need to create a user within Payload, i.e. `dev@thirdparty.com`. From your external application you will need to authenticate with that user, you have two options:
1. Log in each time with that user and receive an expiring token to request with.
1. Generate a non-expiring API key for that user to request with.
<Banner type="success">
**Tip:**
This is particularly useful as you can create a "user" that reflects an integration with a specific external service and assign a "role" or specific access only needed by that service/integration.
</Banner>
Technically, both of these options will work for third-party integrations but the second option with API key is simpler, because it reduces the amount of work that your integrations need to do to be authenticated properly.
To enable API keys on a collection, set the `useAPIKey` auth option to `true`. From there, a new interface will appear in the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) for each document within the collection that allows you to generate an API key for each user in the Collection.
User API keys are encrypted within the database, meaning that if your database is compromised,
your API keys will not be.
<Banner type="warning">
**Important:**
If you change your `PAYLOAD_SECRET`, you will need to regenerate your API keys.
The secret key is used to encrypt the API keys, so if you change the secret, existing API keys will
no longer be valid.
</Banner>
### HTTP Authentication
To authenticate REST or GraphQL API requests using an API key, set the `Authorization` header. The header is case-sensitive and needs the slug of the `auth.useAPIKey` enabled collection, then " API-Key ", followed by the `apiKey` that has been assigned. Payload's built-in middleware will then assign the user document to `req.user` and handle requests with the proper [Access Control](../access-control/overview). By doing this, Payload recognizes the request being made as a request by the user associated with that API key.
Payload ensures that the same, uniform [Access Control](../access-control/overview) is used across all authentication strategies. This enables you to utilize your existing Access Control configurations with both API keys and the standard email/password authentication. This consistency can aid in maintaining granular control over your API keys.
### API Key Only Auth
If you want to use API keys as the only authentication method for a collection, you can disable the default local strategy by setting `disableLocalStrategy` to `true` on the collection's `auth` property. This will disable the ability to authenticate with email and password, and will only allow for authentication via API key.
Payload's Authentication is extremely powerful and gives you everything you need when you go to build a new app or site in a secure and responsible manner.
To enable Authentication on a collection, define an `auth` property and set it to either `true` or to an object containing the options below.
| **`useAPIKey`** | Payload Authentication provides for API keys to be set on each user within an Authentication-enabled Collection. [More](/docs/authentication/config#api-keys) |
| **`tokenExpiration`** | How long (in seconds) to keep the user logged in. JWTs and HTTP-only cookies will both expire at the same time. |
| **`maxLoginAttempts`** | Only allow a user to attempt logging in X amount of times. Automatically locks out a user from authenticating if this limit is passed. Set to `0` to disable. |
| **`lockTime`** | Set the time (in milliseconds) that a user should be locked out if they fail authentication more times than `maxLoginAttempts` allows for. |
| **`depth`** | How many levels deep a `user` document should be populated when creating the JWT and binding the `user` to the express `req`. Defaults to `0` and should only be modified if absolutely necessary, as this will affect performance. |
| **`cookies`** | Set cookie options, including `secure`, `sameSite`, and `domain`. For advanced users. |
| **`forgotPassword`** | Customize the way that the `forgotPassword` operation functions. [More](/docs/authentication/config#forgot-password) |
| **`verify`** | Set to `true` or pass an object with verification options to require users to verify by email before they are allowed to log into your app. [More](/docs/authentication/config#email-verification) |
| **`disableLocalStrategy`** | Advanced - disable Payload's built-in local auth strategy. Only use this property if you have replaced Payload's auth mechanisms with your own. |
| **`strategies`** | Advanced - an array of PassportJS authentication strategies to extend this collection's authentication with. [More](/docs/authentication/config#strategies) |
### API keys
To integrate with third-party APIs or services, you might need the ability to generate API keys that can be used to identify as a certain user within Payload.
In Payload, users are essentially documents within a collection. Just like you can authenticate as a user with an email and password, which is considered as our default local auth strategy, you can also authenticate as a user with an API key. API keys are generated on a user-by-user basis, similar to email and passwords, and are meant to represent a single user.
For example, if you have a third-party service or external app that needs to be able to perform protected actions at its discretion, you have two options:
1. Create a user for the third-party app, and log in each time to receive a token before you attempt to access any protected actions
1. Enable API key support for the Collection, where you can generate a non-expiring API key per user in the collection. This is particularly useful as you can create a "user" that reflects an integration with a specific external service and assign a "role" or specific access only needed by that service/integration. Alternatively, you could create a "super admin" user and assign an API key to that user so that any requests made with that API key are considered as being made by that super user.
Technically, both of these options will work for third-party integrations but the second option with API key is simpler, because it reduces the amount of work that your integrations need to do to be authenticated properly.
To enable API keys on a collection, set the `useAPIKey` auth option to `true`. From there, a new interface will appear in the Admin panel for each document within the collection that allows you to generate an API key for each user in the Collection.

#### Authenticating via API Key
To authenticate REST or GraphQL API requests using an API key, set the `Authorization` header. The header is case-sensitive and needs the slug of the `auth.useAPIKey` enabled collection, then " API-Key ", followed by the `apiKey` that has been assigned. Payload's built-in middleware will then assign the user document to `req.user` and handle requests with the proper access control. By doing this, Payload recognizes the request being made as a request by the user associated with that API key.
Payload ensures that the same, uniform access control is used across all authentication strategies. This enables you to utilize your existing access control configurations with both API keys and the standard email/password authentication. This consistency can aid in maintaining granular control over your API keys.
#### API Key _Only_ Authentication
If you want to use API keys as the only authentication method for a collection, you can disable the default local strategy by setting `disableLocalStrategy` to `true` on the collection's `auth` property. This will disable the ability to authenticate with email and password, and will only allow for authentication via API key.
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types'
export const Customers: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'customers',
auth: {
useAPIKey: true,
disableLocalStrategy: true,
},
}
```
### Forgot Password
You can customize how the Forgot Password workflow operates with the following options on the `auth.forgotPassword` property:
**`generateEmailHTML`**
Function that accepts one argument, containing `{ req, token, user }`, that allows for overriding the HTML within emails that are sent to users attempting to reset their password. The function should return a string that supports HTML, which can be a full HTML email.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
HTML templating can be used to create custom email templates, inline CSS automatically, and more.
You can make a reusable function that standardizes all email sent from Payload, which makes
sending custom emails more DRY. Payload doesn't ship with an HTML templating engine, so you are
free to choose your own.
</Banner>
Example:
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types'
export const Customers: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'customers',
auth: {
forgotPassword: {
// highlight-start
generateEmailHTML: ({ req, token, user }) => {
// Use the token provided to allow your user to reset their password
If you specify a different URL to send your users to for resetting their password, such as a page
on the frontend of your app or similar, you need to handle making the call to the Payload REST or
GraphQL reset-password operation yourself on your frontend, using the token that was provided for
you. Above, it was passed via query parameter.
</Banner>
**`generateEmailSubject`**
Similarly to the above `generateEmailHTML`, you can also customize the subject of the email. The function argument are the same but you can only return a string - not HTML.
Example:
```ts
{
slug: 'customers',
auth: {
forgotPassword: {
// highlight-start
generateEmailSubject: ({ req, user }) => {
return `Hey ${user.email}, reset your password!`;
}
// highlight-end
}
}
}
```
### Email Verification
If you'd like to require email verification before a user can successfully log in, you can enable it by passing `true` or an `options` object to `auth.verify`. The following options are available:
**`generateEmailHTML`**
Function that accepts one argument, containing `{ req, token, user }`, that allows for overriding the HTML within emails that are sent to users indicating how to validate their account. The function should return a string that supports HTML, which can optionally be a full HTML email.
Example:
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types'
export const Customers: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'customers',
auth: {
verify: {
// highlight-start
generateEmailHTML: ({ req, token, user }) => {
// Use the token provided to allow your user to verify their account
return `Hey ${user.email}, verify your email by clicking here: ${url}`
},
// highlight-end
},
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
If you specify a different URL to send your users to for email verification, such as a page on the
frontend of your app or similar, you need to handle making the call to the Payload REST or GraphQL
verification operation yourself on your frontend, using the token that was provided for you.
Above, it was passed via query parameter.

auth: {
forgotPassword: {
// highlight-start
generateEmailSubject: ({ req, user }) => {
return `Hey ${user.email}, reset your password!`;
}
// highlight-end
}
}
}
```
### Strategies
As of Payload `1.0.0`, you can add additional authentication strategies to Payload easily by passing them to your collection's `auth.strategies` array.
Behind the scenes, Payload uses PassportJS to power its local authentication strategy, so most strategies listed on the PassportJS website will work seamlessly. Combined with adding custom components to the admin panel's `Login` view, you can create advanced authentication strategies directly within Payload.
<Banner type="warning">
This is an advanced feature, so only attempt this if you are an experienced developer. Otherwise,
just let Payload's built-in authentication handle user auth for you.
</Banner>
The `strategies` property is an array that takes objects with the following properties:
**`strategy`**
This property can accept a Passport strategy directly, or you can pass a function that takes a `payload` argument, and returns a Passport strategy.
**`name`**
If you pass a strategy to the `strategy` property directly, the `name` property is optional and allows you to override the strategy's built-in name.
However, if you pass a function to `strategy`, `name` is a required property.
In either case, Payload will prefix the strategy name with the collection `slug` that the strategy is passed to.
### Admin autologin
For testing and demo purposes you may want to skip forcing the admin user to login in order to access the panel.
The `admin.autologin` property is used to configure the how visitors are handled when accessing the admin panel.
The default is that all users will have to login and this should not be enabled for environments where data needs to protected.
Payload offers the ability to [Authenticate](./overview) via HTTP-only cookies. These can be read from the responses of `login`, `logout`, `refresh`, and `me` auth operations.
<Banner type="success">
**Tip:** You can access the logged-in user from within [Access
Control](../access-control/overview) and [Hooks](../hooks/overview) through
the `req.user` argument. [More details](./token-data).
</Banner>
### Automatic browser inclusion
Modern browsers automatically include `http-only` cookies when making requests directly to URLs—meaning that if you are running your API on `https://example.com`, and you have logged in and visit `https://example.com/test-page`, your browser will automatically include the Payload authentication cookie for you.
### HTTP Authentication
However, if you use `fetch` or similar APIs to retrieve Payload resources from its REST or GraphQL API, you must specify to include credentials (cookies).
For more about including cookies in requests from your app to your Payload API, [read the MDN docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API/Using_Fetch#Sending_a_request_with_credentials_included).
<Banner type="success">
**Tip:** To make sure you have a Payload cookie set properly in your browser
after logging in, you can use the browsers Developer Tools > Application >
Cookies > [your-domain-here]. The Developer tools will still show HTTP-only
cookies.
</Banner>
### CSRF Attacks
CSRF (cross-site request forgery) attacks are common and dangerous. By using an HTTP-only cookie, Payload removes many XSS vulnerabilities, however, CSRF attacks can still be possible.
For example, let's say you have a popular app `https://payload-finances.com` that allows users to manage finances, send and receive money. As Payload is using HTTP-only cookies, that means that browsers automatically will include cookies when sending requests to your domain - **no matter what page created the request**.
So, if a user of `https://payload-finances.com` is logged in and is browsing around on the internet, they might stumble onto a page with malicious intent. Let's look at an example:
```ts
// malicious-intent.com
// makes an authenticated request as on your behalf
In this scenario, if your cookie was still valid, malicious-intent.com would be able to make requests like the one above on your behalf. This is a CSRF attack.
### CSRF Prevention
Define domains that your trust and are willing to accept Payload HTTP-only cookie based requests from. Use the `csrf` option on the base Payload Config to do this:
```ts
// payload.config.ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({

#### Cross domain authentication
If your frontend is on a different domain than your Payload API then you will not be able to use HTTP-only cookies for authentication by default as they will be considered third-party cookies by the browser.
There are a few strategies to get around this:
##### 1. Use subdomains
Cookies can cross subdomains without being considered third party cookies, for example if your API is at api.example.com then you can authenticate from example.com.
##### 2. Configure cookies
If option 1 isn't possible, then you can get around this limitation by [configuring your cookies](./overview#config-options) on your authentication collection to achieve the following setup:
```
SameSite: None // allows the cookie to cross domains
Secure: true // ensures its sent over HTTPS only
HttpOnly: true // ensures its not accessible via client side JavaScript
```
Configuration example:
```ts
{
slug: 'users',
auth: {
cookies: {
sameSite: 'None',
secure: true,
}
},
fields: [
// your auth fields here
]
},
```
If you're configuring [cors](../production/preventing-abuse#cross-origin-resource-sharing-cors) in your Payload config, you won't be able to use a wildcard anymore, you'll need to specify the list of allowed domains.

**Good to know:** Setting up `secure: true` will not work if you're developing
on `http://localhost` or any non-https domain. For local development you
should conditionally set this to `false` based on the environment.
This is an advanced feature, so only attempt this if you are an experienced
developer. Otherwise, just let Payload's built-in authentication handle user
auth for you.

### Creating a strategy
At the core, a strategy is a way to authenticate a user making a request. As of `3.0` we moved away from [Passport](https://www.passportjs.org) in favor of pulling back the curtain and putting you in full control.
| **`headers`** \* | The headers on the incoming request. Useful for retrieving identifiable information on a request. |
| **`payload`** \* | The Payload class. Useful for authenticating the identifiable information against Payload. |
| **`isGraphQL`** | Whether or not the request was made from a GraphQL endpoint. Default is `false`. |
### Example Strategy
At its core a strategy simply takes information from the incoming request and returns a user. This is exactly how Payload's built-in strategies function.
Your `authenticate` method should return an object containing a Payload user document and any optional headers that you'd like Payload to set for you when we return a response.
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Users: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'users',
auth: {
disableLocalStrategy: true,
// highlight-start
strategies: [
{
name: 'custom-strategy',
authenticate: ({ payload, headers }) => {
const usersQuery = await payload.find({
collection: 'users',
where: {
code: {
equals: headers.get('code'),
},
secret: {
equals: headers.get('secret'),
},
},
})
return {
// Send the user with the collection slug back to authenticate,
// or send null if no user should be authenticated
user: usersQuery.docs[0] ? {
collection: 'users'
...usersQuery.docs[0],
} : null,
// Optionally, you can return headers
// that you'd like Payload to set here when
// it returns the response
responseHeaders: new Headers({
'some-header': 'my header value'
})
}
}
}
]
// highlight-end
},
fields: [
{
name: 'code',
type: 'text',
index: true,
unique: true,
},
{
name: 'secret',
type: 'text',
},
]
}
```
