## 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

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8107
This has been confusing for people from countries where characters
aren't latin, for example the Japanese file name:
フェニックス.png
Turns into:
ãã§ããã¯ã¹.png
Additionally, ensures type-safety for `DEFAULT_OPTIONS` and removes
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

- navigation on versions not working for perPage and pagination

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):
150808f608
opting out of it completely fixed that issue
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7366
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.

- 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.

Allows the server to initialize the AuthProvider via props. Renames
`HydrateClientUser` to `HydrateAuthProvider`. It now only hydrates the
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`

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

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`

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

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7341
req.locale was incorrectly set, stemming from initPage, where
req.query.locale was not being used if present inside the
`createLocaleReq` function.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7271
When extracting the value from the querystring, it is _always_ a string.
We were using a strict equality check which would cause the filter
options to never find the correct option. This caused an infinite loop
when using PG as ID's are numbers by default.

Adjust logic for determining package manager. Needed to move command
exists logic to be evaluated only after other possibilities were
exhausted.
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

After this PR:

Canary: 3.0.0-canary.ca3dd1c

- no need for dotenv - next has their own dotenv file loader
- disable deprecation warnings by default (newer node version spam you
with it)
- 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

Something like this:
```ts
{
name: 'select',
type: 'select',
dbName: ({ tableName }) => `${tableName}_customSelect`,
enumName: 'selectEnum',
hasMany: true,
options: ['a', 'b', 'c'],

caused the "Functions cannot be passed directly to Client Components"
error, as the dbName function was sent to the client.
Now, you can run `pnpm dev database` again without it erroring
We are suspecting that operations within those esbuild scripts are not

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.

Adds `loginWithUsername` option to auth config. When set to true, it
will inject an `username` field into the collection config which
replaces the `email` field in the UI. The `email` field is still
required but not unique.
The `username` field can be extended by passing a field named `username`
to your auth collection. Anything added to this field will be combined
with the initial field.

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 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

functionality to not work as expected)
**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.

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

---------
Co-authored-by: PatrikKozak <patrik@payloadcms.com>
When typing into the search input on the list view of a collection, the
`like` operator is used for id which causes an error for postgres. To
fix this we are sanitizing the `like` for number or uuid fields to
instead be an `equals` operator. An alternate solution would have been
to cast the ids to text `id::text` but this would have performence
implications on larger data sets.

## Description
* The apostrophe character `’` should be used instead of the single
quote `'`
* Gender corrections: "L’adresse e-mail fourni**e**", "Vérification
échoué**e**"
* Lowercase: "Supprimer le **té**léversement"
* Dark and light theme: I think it makes more sense to use "Sombre" and
"Clair" here to identify the theme. Day/Night modes imply a hue/warmth
correction and are different features altogether. Reference:
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_sombre#Mode_sombre_et_mode_nuit_ou_chaud
* Fix accent: "Mis à jour avec succ**è**s"
* "Bienvenue" I think would be the correct standalone greeting form.
Reference:
https://www.projet-voltaire.fr/question-orthographe/orthographe-bienvenu-bienvenue-chez-moi/
* "Recadrer" is the correct word for "crop". "Récolte" means "crop" in
the sense of "harvest", so this was probably a bad literal Google
Translate that slipped through.
* Correct all "Es-tu sûr ?" to the proper formal "Êtes-vous sûr ?" for
consistency
* Use _article défini_ since we will enumerate the values: "Ce champ
contient **les** sélections invalides suivantes :"
* Space before question marks

**BREAKING:** This upgrades all lexical packages from 0.14.5 to 0.15.0.
If there are any breaking changes within lexical, this could break your
project if you use lexical APIs directly (e.g. in custom features). We
have not noticed any breaking changes within core. Please consult their

## Description
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/issues/215
imports like import LogoSVG from '@/components/logo.svg' did not make it
to the TS module resolution, due to the early isClient check.
And the isClient check only uses node module resolution (using
nextResolves) which throws an error here.
This removes module resolution completely, as we "ignore" client files
anyways. Should also help improve performance, and we do not have to
fall back to ts module resolution for client files that way, which would
be unnecessary

- `RenderCustomComponent` (optional)
- `Logo`
- `DefaultTemplate`
- `DefaultNav`

- Collections config: `admin.description` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `admin.components.edit.Description`
- All Fields: `field.admin.description` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `field.admin.components.Description`
- Collapsible Field: `field.label` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `field.admin.components.RowLabel`
- Array Field: `field.admin.components.RowLabel` no longer accepts strings or records
- If you are using our exported field components in your own app, their `labelProps` property has been stripped down and no longer contains the `label` and `required` prop. Those can now only be configured at the top-level
**BREAKING:**
- Narrows the type of the `plugins` prop of lexical features. Client props are now also automatically provided to the plugin components. To migrate, type your plugin as either `PluginComponent` or PluginComponentWithAnchor.
- `BlockQuoteFeature` has been renamed to `BlockquoteFeature`
- `createClientComponent` is now exported only from /components
- The `LexicalBlocks` and `FieldWithRichTextRequiredEditor` types have been removed in favor of just `Blocks` & `Fields`, as well as improved validation.
BREAKING:
- The default inline toolbar has now been extracted into an `InlineToolbarFeature`. While it's part of the defaultFeatures, you might have to add it to your editor features if you are not including the defaultFeatures and still want to keep the inline toolbar (floating toolbar)
- Some types have been renamed, e.g. `InlineToolbarGroup` is now `ToolbarGroup`, and `InlineToolbarGroupItem` is now `ToolbarGroupItem`
- The `displayName` property of SlashMenuGroup and SlashMenuItem has been renamed to `label` to match the `label` prop of the toolbars
- The `inlineToolbarFeatureButtonsGroupWithItem`, `inlineToolbarFormatGroupWithItems` and `inlineToolbarTextDropdownGroupWithItems` exports have been renamed to `toolbarTextDropdownGroupWithItems`, `toolbarFormatGroupWithItems`, `toolbarFeatureButtonsGroupWithItems`
BREAKING CHANGE: All plugins have been updated to use named exports and the names have been updated to be consistent.

**BREAKING:**
If you have own, custom lexical features, there will be a bunch of breaking API changes for you. The saved JSON data is not affected.
- `floatingSelectToolbar` has been changed to `toolbarInline`
- `slashMenu.dynamicOptions `and `slashMenu.options` have been changed to `slashMenu.groups` and `slashMenu.dynamicGroups`
- `toolbarFixed.sections` is now `toolbarFixed.groups`
- Slash menu group `options` and toolbar group `entries` have both been renamed to `items`
- Toolbar group item `onClick` has been renamed to `onSelect` to match slash menu properties
- slashMenu item `onSelect` is no longer auto-wrapped inside an `editor.update`. If you perform editor updates in them, you have to wrap it inside an `editor.update` callback yourself. Within our own features this extra control has removed a good amount of unnecessary, nested `editor.update` calls, which is good
- Slash menu items are no longer initialized using the `new` keyword, as they are now types and no longer classes. You can convert them to an object and add the `key` property as an object property instead of an argument to the previous SlashMenuItem constructor
- CSS classnames for slash menu and toolbars, as well as their items, have changed
- `CheckListFeature` is now exported as and has been renamed to `ChecklistFeature`
For guidance on migration, check out how we migrated our own features in this PR's diff: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6191/files
BREAKING: this will now display errors if you're previously had invalid link or upload fields data - for example if you have a required field added to an uploads node and did not provide a value to it every time you've added an upload node
BREAKING: this will now display errors if you're previously had invalid link or upload fields data - for example if you have a required field added to an uploads node and did not provide a value to it every time you've added an upload node
**BREAKING:**
- Drawer fields are no longer wrapped in a `fields` group. This might be breaking if you depend on them being in a field group in any way - potentially if you use custom link fields. This does not change how the data is saved
- If you pass in an array of custom fields to the link feature, those were previously added to the base fields. Now, they completely replace the base fields for consistency. If you want to ADD fields to the base fields now, you will have to pass in a function and spread `defaultFields` - similar to how adding your own features to lexical works
**Example Migration for ADDING fields to the link base fields:**
**Previous:**
```ts
LinkFeature({
fields: [
{
name: 'rel',
label: 'Rel Attribute',
type: 'select',
hasMany: true,
options: ['noopener', 'noreferrer', 'nofollow'],
admin: {
description:
'The rel attribute defines the relationship between a linked resource and the current document. This is a custom link field.',
},
},
],
}),
```
**Now:**
```ts
LinkFeature({
fields: ({ defaultFields }) => [
...defaultFields,
{
name: 'rel',
label: 'Rel Attribute',
type: 'select',
hasMany: true,
options: ['noopener', 'noreferrer', 'nofollow'],
admin: {
description:
'The rel attribute defines the relationship between a linked resource and the current document. This is a custom link field.',
},
},
],
}),
BREAKING:
- Lexical may introduce breaking changes in their updates. Please consult their changelog. One breaking change I noticed is that the SerializedParagraphNode now has a new, required textFormat property.
- Now that lexical supports ESM, all CJS-style imports have been changed to ESM-style imports. You may have to do the same in your codebase if you import from lexical core packages
BREAKING:
- Unpopulated lexical relationship, link and upload nodes now save the relationTo document ID under value instead of value.id. This matches the behavior of core relationship fields. This changes the shape of the saved JSON data
- Any custom features which add their own population promises need to be reworked. populationPromises no longer accepts the promises as a return value. Instead, it expects you to mutate the promises array which is passed through, which mimics the way it works in core

BREAKING: An unpopulated, internal link node no longer saves the doc id under fields.doc.value.id. Now, it saves it under fields.doc.value.

The version property of the link and autoLink node has been changed from 1 to 2.

fix: recursiveNestedPaths not merging existing fields when hoisting row/collapsible fields (#2769)
fix: exclude monaco code editor from ltr due to microsoft/monaco-editor#2371
BREAKING CHANGE:
- The admin hook for `useLocale` now returns a Locale object of the currently active locale. Previously this would only return the code as a string. Any custom components built which had `locale = useLocale()` should be replaced with `{ code: locale } = useLocale()` to maintain the same functionality.
- The property `localization.locales` of `SanitizedConfig` type has changed. This was an array of strings and is now an array of Locale objects having: `label: string`, `code: string` and `rtl: boolean`. If you are using localization.locales from the config you will need to adjust your project or plugin accordingly.

**BREAKING CHANGES**
Preferences have been overhauled to be abstracted as a Payload collection and no longer explicitly defined by Payload. They previously used the slug `_preferences` as a collection name and url route and are now
If any of the following are true you will need to take action:
- You have existing preferences you wish to keep for your admin users you must migrate data in the _preferences collection to the new shape. To migrate the preferences in the database you must update the shape of each _preferences document from:
```js
{
user: ObjectId("abc"),
userCollection: "users",
/** other fields remain the same **/
}
```
to:
```js
{
user: {
value: 'abc',
relationTo: 'users",
}
/** other fields remain the same **/
}
```
- You have code external of Payload or custom code within Payload using the API endpoint `api/_preferences`, you should update any applications to use `api/payload-preferences` instead.
- You were using the preferences GraphQL implementation. This was removed and is instead provided the same way as Payload handles any other. In this way the queries, mutation and schemas have changed. These are now generated as any other collection within your payload project.
- You were using the Payload's exported Preference type for your typescript code. Now you can instead import the generated type from your project.

1. [Fork](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/fork) this repo
2. Optionally, create a new branch for your reproduction
3. Run `pnpm install` to install dependencies
4. Open up the `test/_community` directory
5. Add any necessary `collections/globals/fields` in this directory to recreate the issue you are experiencing
6. Run `pnpm dev _community` to start the admin panel
**NOTE:** The goal is to isolate the problem by reducing the number of `collections/globals/fields` you add to the `test/_community` folder. This folder is _not_ meant for you to copy your project into, but rather recreate the issue you are experiencing with minimal config.
## Example test directory file tree
```text
.
├── config.ts
├── int.spec.ts
├── e2e.spec.ts
└── payload-types.ts
```
-`config.ts` - This is the _granular_ Payload config for testing. It should be as lightweight as possible. Reference existing configs for an example
-`int.spec.ts` [Optional] - This is the test file run by jest. Any test file must have a `*int.spec.ts` suffix.
-`e2e.spec.ts` [Optional] - This is the end-to-end test file that will load up the admin UI using the above config and run Playwright tests.
-`payload-types.ts` - Generated types from `config.ts`. Generate this file by running `pnpm dev:generate-types _community`.
The directory split up in this way specifically to reduce friction when creating tests and to add the ability to boot up Payload with that specific config. You should modify the files in `test/_community` to get started.
<br />
## Testing is optional but encouraged
An issue does not need to have failing tests — reproduction steps with your forked repo are enough at this point. Some people like to dive deeper and we want to give you the guidance/tools to do so. Read more below:
### Running integration tests (Payload API tests)
First install [Jest Runner for VSVode](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=firsttris.vscode-jest-runner).
There are a couple ways run integration tests:
- **Granularly** - you can run individual tests in vscode by installing the Jest Runner plugin and using that to run individual tests. Clicking the `debug` button will run the test in debug mode allowing you to set break points.
Once they are installed you can open the `testing` tab in vscode sidebar and drill down to the test you want to run, i.e. `/test/_community/e2e.spec.ts`
The default credentials are `dev@payloadcms.com` as email and `test` as password. They can be found in `test/credentials.ts`. By default, these will be autofilled, so no log-in is required.
Below you'll find a set of guidelines for how to contribute to Payload.
## Opening issues
Before you submit an issue, please check all existing [open and closed issues](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues) to see if your issue has previously been resolved or is already known. If there is already an issue logged, feel free to upvote it by adding a :thumbsup: [reaction](https://github.com/blog/2119-add-reactions-to-pull-requests-issues-and-comments). If you would like to submit a new issue, please fill out our Issue Template to the best of your ability so we can accurately understand your report.
## Security issues & vulnerabilities
If you come across an issue related to security, or a potential attack vector within Payload or one of its dependencies, please DO NOT create a publicly viewable issue. Instead, please contact us directly at [`dev@payloadcms.com`](mailto:dev@payloadcms.com). We will do everything we can to respond to the issue as soon as possible.
If you find a vulnerability within the core Payload repository, and we determine that it is remediable and of significant nature, we will be happy to pay you a reward for your findings and diligence. [`Contact us`](mailto:dev@payloadcms.com) to find out more.
## Documentation edits
Payload documentation can be found directly within its codebase, and you can feel free to make changes / improvements to any of it through opening a PR. We utilize these files directly in our website and will periodically deploy documentation updates as necessary.
## Building additional features
If you're an incredibly awesome person and want to help us make Payload even better through new features or additions, we would be thrilled to work with you.
## Design Contributions
When it comes to design-related changes or additions, it's crucial for us to ensure a cohesive user experience and alignment with our broader design vision. Before embarking on any implementation that would affect the design or UI/UX, we ask that you **first share your design proposal** with us for review and approval.
Our design review ensures that proposed changes fit seamlessly with other components, both existing and planned. This step is meant to prevent unintentional design inconsistencies and to save you from investing time in implementing features that might need significant design alterations later.
### Before Starting
To help us work on new features, you can create a new feature request post in [GitHub Discussion](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions) or discuss it in our [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/payload). New functionality often has large implications across the entire Payload repo, so it is best to discuss the architecture and approach before starting work on a pull request.
### Installation & Requirements
Payload is structured as a Monorepo, encompassing not only the core Payload platform but also various plugins and packages. To install all required dependencies, you have to run `pnpm install` once in the root directory. **PNPM IS REQUIRED!** Yarn or npm will not work - you will have to use pnpm to develop in the core repository. In most systems, the easiest way to install pnpm is to run `corepack enable` in your terminal.
If you're coming from a very outdated version of payload, it is recommended to nuke the node_modules folder before running pnpm install. On UNIX systems, you can easily do that using the `pnpm clean:unix` command, which will delete all node_modules folders and build artefacts.
It is also recommended to use at least Node v18 or higher. You can check your current node version by typing `node --version` in your terminal. The easiest way to switch between different node versions is to use [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#intro).
### Code
Most new functionality should keep testing in mind. All top-level directories within the `test/` directory are for testing a specific category: `fields`, `collections`, etc.
If it makes sense to add your feature to an existing test directory, please do so.
A typical directory with `test/` will be structured like this:
```text
.
├── config.ts
├── int.spec.ts
├── e2e.spec.ts
└── payload-types.ts
```
-`config.ts` - This is the _granular_ Payload config for testing. It should be as lightweight as possible. Reference existing configs for an example
-`int.spec.ts` - This is the test file run by jest. Any test file must have a `*int.spec.ts` suffix.
-`e2e.spec.ts` - This is the end-to-end test file that will load up the admin UI using the above config and run Playwright tests. These tests are typically only needed if a large change is being made to the Admin UI.
-`payload-types.ts` - Generated types from `config.ts`. Generate this file by running `pnpm dev:generate-types my-test-dir`. Replace `my-test-dir` with the name of your testing directory.
Each test directory is split up in this way specifically to reduce friction when creating tests and to add the ability to boot up Payload with that specific config.
The following command will start Payload with your config: `pnpm dev my-test-dir`. Example: `pnpm dev fields` for the test/`fields` test suite. This command will start up Payload using your config and refresh a test database on every restart. If you're using VS Code, the most common run configs are automatically added to your editor - you should be able to find them in your VS Code launch tab.
By default, payload will [automatically log you in](https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/overview#admin-autologin) with the default credentials. To disable that, you can either pass in the --no-auto-login flag (example: `pnpm dev my-test-dir --no-auto-login`) or set the `PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_DISABLE_AUTO_LOGIN` environment variable to `false`.
The default credentials are `dev@payloadcms.com` as E-Mail and `test` as password. These are used in the auto-login.
### Testing with your own MongoDB database
If you wish to use your own MongoDB database for the `test` directory instead of using the in memory database, all you need to do is add the following env vars to the `test/dev.ts` file:
-`process.env.NODE_ENV`
-`process.env.PAYLOAD_TEST_MONGO_URL`
- Simply set `process.env.NODE_ENV` to `test` and set `process.env.PAYLOAD_TEST_MONGO_URL` to your MongoDB URL e.g. `mongodb://127.0.0.1/your-test-db`.
### Using Postgres
If you have postgres installed on your system, you can also run the test suites using postgres. By default, mongodb is used.
To do that, simply set the `PAYLOAD_DATABASE` environment variable to `postgres`.
### Running the e2e and int tests
You can run the entire test suite using `pnpm test`. If you wish to only run e2e tests, you can use `pnpm test:e2e`. If you wish to only run int tests, you can use `pnpm test:int`.
By default, `pnpm test:int` will only run int test against MongoDB. To run int tests against postgres, you can use `pnpm test:int:postgres`. You will have to have postgres installed on your system for this to work.
### Commits
We use [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) for our commit messages. Please follow this format when creating commits. Here are some examples:
-`feat: adds new feature`
-`fix: fixes bug`
-`docs: adds documentation`
-`chore: does chore`
Here's a breakdown of the format. At the top-level, we use the following types to categorize our commits:
-`feat`: new feature that adds functionality. These are automatically added to the changelog when creating new releases.
-`fix`: a fix to an existing feature. These are automatically added to the changelog when creating new releases.
-`docs`: changes to [docs](./docs) only. These do not appear in the changelog.
-`chore`: changes to code that is neither a fix nor a feature (e.g. refactoring, adding tests, etc.). These do not appear in the changelog.
If you are committing to [templates](./templates) or [examples](./examples), use the `chore` type with the proper scope, like this:
-`chore(templates): adds feature to template`
-`chore(examples): fixes bug in example`
## Pull Requests
For all Pull Requests, you should be extremely descriptive about both your problem and proposed solution. If there are any affected open or closed issues, please leave the issue number in your PR message.
## Previewing docs
This is how you can preview changes you made locally to the docs:
3. Duplicate the `.env.example` file and rename it to `.env`
4. Add a `DOCS_DIR` environment variable to the `.env` file which points to the absolute path of your modified docs folder. For example `DOCS_DIR=/Users/yourname/Documents/GitHub/payload/docs`
5. Run `yarn run fetchDocs:local`. If this was successful, you should see no error messages and the following output: _Docs successfully written to /.../website/src/app/docs.json_. There could be error messages if you have incorrect markdown in your local docs folder. In this case, it will tell you how you can fix it
6. You're done! Now you can start the website locally using `yarn run dev` and preview the docs under [http://localhost:3000/docs/](http://localhost:3000/docs/)
To report an issue, please follow the steps below:
1. Fork this repository
2. Add necessary collections/globals/fields to the `test/_community` directory to recreate the issue you are experiencing
3. Create an issue and add a link to your forked repo
**The goal is to isolate the problem by reducing the number of fields/collections you add to the test/\_community folder. This folder is not meant for you to copy your project into, but to recreate the issue you are experiencing with minimal config.**
## Test directory file tree explanation
```text
.
├── config.ts
├── int.spec.ts
├── e2e.spec.ts
└── payload-types.ts
```
-`config.ts` - This is the _granular_ Payload config for testing. It should be as lightweight as possible. Reference existing configs for an example
-`int.spec.ts` [Optional] - This is the test file run by jest. Any test file must have a `*int.spec.ts` suffix.
-`e2e.spec.ts` [Optional] - This is the end-to-end test file that will load up the admin UI using the above config and run Playwright tests.
-`payload-types.ts` - Generated types from `config.ts`. Generate this file by running `pnpm dev:generate-types _community`.
The directory split up in this way specifically to reduce friction when creating tests and to add the ability to boot up Payload with that specific config. You should modify the files in `test/_community` to get started.
## How to start test collection admin UI
To start the admin panel so you can manually recreate your issue, you can run the following command:
```bash
# This command will start up Payload using your config
# NOTE: it will wipe the test database on restart
pnpm dev _community
```
## Testing is optional but encouraged
An issue does not need to have failing tests — reproduction steps with your forked repo are enough at this point. Some people like to dive deeper and we want to give you the guidance/tools to do so. Read more below.
### How to run integration tests (Payload API tests)
There are a couple ways to do this:
- **Granularly** - you can run individual tests in vscode by installing the Jest Runner plugin and using that to run individual tests. Clicking the `debug` button will run the test in debug mode allowing you to set break points.
Once they are installed you can open the `testing` tab in vscode sidebar and drill down to the test you want to run, i.e. `/test/_community/e2e.spec.ts`
- It is recommended to add the test credentials (located in `test/credentials.ts`) to your autofill for `localhost:3000/admin` as this will be required on every nodemon restart. The default credentials are `dev@payloadcms.com` as email and `test` as password.

## Documentation edits
Payload documentation can be found directly within its codebase and you can feel free to make changes / improvements to any of it through opening a PR. We utilize these files directly in our website and will periodically deploy documentation updates as necessary.
## Building additional features
If you're an incredibly awesome person and want to help us make Payload even better through new features or additions, we would be thrilled to work with you.
### Before Starting
To help us work on new features, you can create a new feature request post in [GitHub Discussion](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions) or discuss it in our [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/r6sCXqVk3v). New functionality often has large implications across the entire Payload repo, so it is best to discuss the architecture and approach before starting work on a pull request.
### Code
Most new functionality should keep testing in mind. With 1.0, testability of new features has been vastly improved. All top-level directories within the `test/` directory are for testing a specific category: `fields`, `collections`, etc.
If it makes sense to add your feature to an existing test directory, please do so.
A typical directory with `test/` will be structured like this:
```text
.
├── config.ts
├── int.spec.ts
├── e2e.spec.ts
└── payload-types.ts
```
-`config.ts` - This is the _granular_ Payload config for testing. It should be as lightweight as possible. Reference existing configs for an example
-`int.spec.ts` - This is the test file run by jest. Any test file must have a `*int.spec.ts` suffix.
-`e2e.spec.ts` - This is the end-to-end test file that will load up the admin UI using the above config and run Playwright tests. These tests are typically only needed if a large change is being made to the Admin UI.
-`payload-types.ts` - Generated types from `config.ts`. Generate this file by running `yarn dev:generate-types my-test-dir`.
The directory split up in this way specifically to reduce friction when creating tests and to add the ability to boot up Payload with that specific config.
The following command will start Payload with your config: `yarn dev my-test-dir`. This command will start up Payload using your config and refresh a test database on every restart.
When switching between test directories, you will want to remove your `node_modules/.cache ` manually or by running `yarn clean:cache`.
NOTE: It is recommended to add the test credentials (located in `test/credentials.ts`) to your autofill for `localhost:3000/admin` as this will be required on every nodemon restart. The default credentials are `dev@payloadcms.com` as E-Mail and `test` as password.
## Pull Requests
For all Pull Requests, you should be extremely descriptive about both your problem and proposed solution. If there are any affected open or closed issues, please leave the issue number in your PR message.
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) used to restrict access to Documents within a [Collection](../collections/overview), as well as what they can and cannot see within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) as it relates to that Collection.
## Available Controls
To add Access Control to a Collection, use the `access` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
| **`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.
**Available argument properties:**
| Option | Description |
| ---------- | ----------- |
| **`req`** | The Express `request` object containing the currently authenticated `user` |
| **`data`** | The data passed to create the document with. |
**Example:**
To add create Access Control to a Collection, use the `create` property in the [Collection Config](../collections/overview):
| **`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.
**Available argument properties:**
| Option | Description |
| --------- | ----------- |
| **`req`** | The Express `request` object containing the currently authenticated `user` |
| **`id`** | `id` of document requested, if within `findByID` |
**Example:**
To add read Access Control to a Collection, use the `read` property in the [Collection Config](../collections/overview):
Return a [Query](../queries/overview) to limit the Documents to only those that match the constraint. This can be helpful to restrict users' access to specific Documents. [More details](../queries/overview).
</Banner>
As your application becomes more complex, you may want to define your function in a separate file and import them into your Collection Config:
| **`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.
**Available argument properties:**
| Option | Description |
| ---------- | ----------- |
| **`req`** | The Express `request` object containing the currently authenticated `user` |
| **`id`** | `id` of document requested to update |
| **`data`** | The data passed to update the document with |
**Example:**
To add update Access Control to a Collection, use the `update` property in the [Collection Config](../collections/overview):
```ts
import { Access } from 'payload/config';
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
const canUpdateUser: Access = ({ req: { user }, id }) => {
// allow users with a role of 'admin'
if (user.roles && user.roles.some(role => role === 'admin')) {
Return a [Query](../queries/overview) to limit the Documents to only those that match the constraint. This can be helpful to restrict users' access to specific Documents. [More details](../queries/overview).
</Banner>
As your application becomes more complex, you may want to define your function in a separate file and import them into your Collection Config:
```ts
import type { Access } from 'payload'
export const canUpdateUser: Access = ({ req: { user }, id }) => {
// Allow users with a role of 'admin'
if (user.roles && user.roles.some((role) => role === 'admin')) {
return true
}
// allow any other users to update only oneself
return user.id === id
}
```
The following arguments are provided to the `update` function:
| **`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.
**Available argument properties:**
| Option | Description |
| --------- | ----------- |
| **`req`** | The Express `request` object with additional `user` property, which is the currently logged in user |
| **`id`** | `id` of document requested to delete |
**Example:**
To add delete Access Control to a Collection, use the `delete` property in the [Collection Config](../collections/overview):
| **`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.
If the Collection is use to access the [Admin Panel](../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.
**Available argument properties:**
To add Admin Access Control to a Collection, use the `admin` property in the [Collection Config](../collections/overview):
| Option | Description |
| --------- | ----------- |
| **`req`** | The Express `request` object containing the currently authenticated `user` |
| **`req`** | The [Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request) object containing the currently authenticated `user`. |
### Unlock
Determines which users can [unlock](/docs/authentication/operations#unlock) other users who may be blocked from authenticating successfully due to [failing too many login attempts](/docs/authentication/config#options).

### 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](../collections/overview):
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) used to restrict access to specific [Fields](../fields/overview) within a Document.
## Available Controls
To add Access Control to a Field, use the `access` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| Function | Purpose |
| ------------------------ | ------- |
| **[`create`](#create)** | Allows or denies the ability to set a field's value when creating a new document |
| **[`read`](#read)** | Allows or denies the ability to read a field's value |
| **[`update`](#update)** | Allows or denies the ability to update a field's value |
**Example Collection config:**
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types';
import type { Field } from 'payload';
const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
export const FieldWithAccessControl: Field = {
// ...

desc: Payload makes it simple to define and manage Access Control. By declaring roles, you can set permissions and restrict what your users can interact with.
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.

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.
**Example use cases:**
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.
- 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
There are many use cases for Access Control, including:
### Default Settings
- 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 noone else's
- Allowing users that belong to a certain organization to access only that organization's resources
**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.
There are three main types of Access Control in Payload:
**Default Access function:**
- [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) 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>true</strong>.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
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.
<strong>Important:</strong>
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.
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 Panel.
The behavior of [Collections](../configuration/collections) within the [Admin Panel](./overview) can be fully customized to fit the needs of your application. This includes grouping or hiding their navigation links, adding [Custom Components](./components), selecting which fields to display in the List View, and more.
To configure Admin Options for Collections, use the `admin` property in your Collection Config:
| **`group`** | Text used as a label for grouping Collection and Global links together in the navigation. |
| **`hidden`** | Set to true or a function, called with the current user, returning true to exclude this Collection from navigation and admin routing. |
| **`hooks`** | Admin-specific hooks for this Collection. [More details](../hooks/collections). |
| **`useAsTitle`** | Specify a top-level field to use for a document title throughout the Admin Panel. If no field is defined, the ID of the document is used as the title. |
| **`description`** | Text to display below the Collection label in the List View to give editors more information. Alternatively, you can use the `admin.components.Description` to render a React component. [More details](#components). |
| **`defaultColumns`** | Array of field names that correspond to which columns to show by default in this Collection's List View. |
| **`hideAPIURL`** | Hides the "API URL" meta field while editing documents within this Collection. |
| **`enableRichTextLink`** | The [Rich Text](../fields/rich-text) field features a `Link` element which allows for users to automatically reference related documents within their rich text. Set to `true` by default. |
| **`enableRichTextRelationship`** | The [Rich Text](../fields/rich-text) field features a `Relationship` element which allows for users to automatically reference related documents within their rich text. Set to `true` by default. |
| **`meta`** | Page metadata overrides to apply to this Collection within the Admin Panel. [More details](./metadata). |
| **`preview`** | Function to generate preview URLs within the Admin Panel that can point to your app. [More details](#preview). |
| **`livePreview`** | Enable real-time editing for instant visual feedback of your front-end application. [More details](../live-preview/overview). |
| **`components`** | Swap in your own React components to be used within this Collection. [More details](#components). |
| **`listSearchableFields`** | Specify which fields should be searched in the List search view. [More details](#list-searchable-fields). |
| **`pagination`** | Set pagination-specific options for this Collection. [More details](#pagination). |
### Components
Collections can set their own [Custom Components](./components) which only apply to [Collection](../configuration/collections)-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](./overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
To override Collection Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
| **`beforeList`** | An array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List View |
| **`beforeListTable`** | An array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List View's table |
| **`afterList`** | An array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List View |
| **`afterListTable`** | An array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List View's table
| **`Description`** | A component to render below the Collection label in the List View. An alternative to the `admin.description` property. |
| **`edit.SaveButton`** | Replace the default Save Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be disabled. |
| **`edit.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default Save Draft Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
| **`edit.PublishButton`** | Replace the default Publish Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled. |
| **`edit.PreviewButton`** | Replace the default Preview Button with a Custom Component. [Preview](#preview) must be enabled. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Admin Panel. [More details](./views). |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
</Banner>
### Preview
It is possible to display a Preview Button within the Edit View of the Admin Panel. This will allow editors to visit the frontend of your app the corresponds to the document they are actively editing. This way they can preview the latest, potentially unpublished changes.
To configure the Preview Button, set the `admin.preview` property to a function in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
preview: (doc, { locale }) => {
if (doc?.slug) {
return `/${doc.slug}?locale=${locale}`
}
return null
},
// highlight-end
},
}
```
The preview function receives two arguments:
| Argument | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **`doc`** | The Document being edited. |
| **`ctx`** | An object containing `locale` and `token` properties. The `token` is the currently logged-in user's JWT. |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
For fully working example of this, check of the official [Draft Preview Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/draft-preview) in the [Examples Directory](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples).
</Banner>
### Pagination
All Collections receive their own List View which displays a paginated list of documents that can be sorted and filtered. The pagination behavior of the List View can be customized on a per-Collection basis, and uses the same [Pagination](../queries/pagination) API that Payload provides.
To configure pagination options, use the `admin.pagination` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
| `defaultLimit` | Integer that specifies the default per-page limit that should be used. Defaults to 10. |
| `limits` | Provide an array of integers to use as per-page options for admins to choose from in the List View. |
### List Searchable Fields
In the List View, there is a "search" box that allows you to quickly find a document through a simple text search. By default, it searches on the ID field. If defined, the `admin.useAsTitle` field is used. Or, you can explicitly define which fields to search based on the needs of your application.
To define which fields should be searched, use the `admin.listSearchableFields` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
listSearchableFields: ['title', 'slug'],
// highlight-end
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
If you are adding `listSearchableFields`, make sure you index each of these fields so your admin queries can remain performant.
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 your own routes entirely. In order for Payload to support that level of customization without introducing versioning / future-proofing issues, Payload provides for a pattern to supply your own React components via your Payload config.
The Payload [Admin Panel](./overview) is designed to be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow for both easy customization and full control over the UI. In order for Payload to support this level of customization, Payload provides a pattern for you to supply your own React components through your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview).
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.
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default, with the exception of [Custom Providers](#custom-providers). This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api) directly on the front-end. Custom Components are available for nearly every part of the Admin Panel for extreme granularity and control.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
Custom components will automatically be provided with all props that the
default component would accept.
<strong>Note:</strong>
Client Components continue to be fully supported. To use Client Components in your app, simply include the `use client` directive. Payload will automatically detect and remove all default, [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) before rendering your component. [More details](#client-components).
</Banner>
### Base Component Overrides
There are four main types of Custom Components in Payload:
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 and mobile Nav in its entirety. |
| **`logout.Button`** | A custom React component.
| **`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/master/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. |
| **`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. |
| **`views.Account`** | The Account view is used to show the currently logged in user's Account page. |
| **`views.Dashboard`** | The main landing page of the Admin panel. |
| **`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. |
| **`routes`** | Define your own routes to add to the Payload Admin UI. [More](#custom-routes) |
| **`providers`** | Define your own provider components that will wrap the Payload Admin UI. [More](#custom-providers) |
To swap in your own Custom Component, consult the list of available components. Determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-components) accordingly.
#### Full example:
`payload.config.js`
## Defining Custom Components in the Payload Config
In the Payload Config, you can define custom React Components to enhance the admin interface. However, these components should not be imported directly into the server-only Payload Config to avoid including client-side code. Instead, you specify the path to the component. Here’s how you can do it:
src/components/Logout.tsx
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
export const MyComponent = () => {
return (
<button>Click me!</button>
)
}
```
payload.config.ts:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: { // highlight-line
components: {
logout: {
Button: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent'
}
}
},
})
```
In the path `/src/components/Logout#MyComponent`, `/src/components/Logout` is the file path, and `MyComponent` is the named export. If the component is the default export, the export name can be omitted. Path and export name are separated by a `#`.
### Configuring the Base Directory
Component paths, by default, are relative to your working directory - this is usually where your Next.js config lies. To simplify component paths, you have the option to configure the *base directory* using the `admin.baseDir.baseDir` property:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from "payload/config";
import {
MyCustomNav,
MyCustomLogo,
MyCustomIcon,
MyCustomAccount,
MyCustomDashboard,
MyProvider,
} from "./customComponents";
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
import path from 'path'
const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
export default buildConfig({
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: { // highlight-line
importMap: {
baseDir: path.resolve(dirname, 'src'),
},
components: {
logout: {
Button: '/components/Logout#MyComponent'
}
}
},
})
```
In this example, we set the base directory to the `src` directory - thus we can omit the `/src/` part of our component path string.
### Passing Props
Each React Component in the Payload Config is typed as `PayloadComponent`. This usually is a string, but can also be an object containing the following properties:
| `clientProps` | Props to be passed to the React Component if it's a Client Component |
| `exportName` | Instead of declaring named exports using `#` in the component path, you can also omit them from `path` and pass them in here. |
| `path` | Path to the React Component. Named exports can be appended to the end of the path, separated by a `#` |
| `serverProps` | Props to be passed to the React Component if it's a Server Component |
To pass in props from the config, you can use the `clientProps` and/or `serverProps` properties. This alleviates the need to use an HOC (Higher-Order-Component) to declare a React Component with props passed in.
It's essential to understand how `PayloadComponent` paths function behind the scenes. Directly importing React Components into your Payload Config using import statements can introduce client-only modules like CSS into your server-only config. This could error when attempting to load the Payload Config in server-only environments and unnecessarily increase the size of the Payload Config, which should remain streamlined and efficient for server use.
Instead, we utilize component paths to reference React Components. This method enhances the Payload Config with actual React Component imports on the client side, without affecting server-side usage. A script is deployed to scan the Payload Config, collecting all component paths and creating an `importMap.js`. This file, located in app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js, must be statically imported by your Next.js root page and layout. The script imports all the React Components from the specified paths into a Map, associating them with their respective paths (the ones you defined).
When constructing the `ClientConfig`, Payload uses the component paths as keys to fetch the corresponding React Component imports from the Import Map. It then substitutes the `PayloadComponent` with a `MappedComponent`. A `MappedComponent` includes the React Component and additional metadata, such as whether it's a server or a client component and which props it should receive. These components are then rendered through the `<RenderComponent />` component within the Payload Admin Panel.
Import maps are regenerated whenever you modify any element related to component paths. This regeneration occurs at startup and whenever Hot Module Replacement (HMR) runs. If the import maps fail to regenerate during HMR, you can restart your application and execute the `payload generate:importmap` command to manually create a new import map. If you encounter any errors running this command, see the [Troubleshooting](/docs/beta/local-api/outside-nextjs#troubleshooting) section.
### Component paths in external packages
Component paths are resolved relative to your project's base directory, which is either your current working directory or the directory specified in `config.admin.baseDir`. When using custom components from external packages, you can't use relative paths. Instead, use an import path that's accessible as if you were writing an import statement in your project's base directory.
For example, to export a field with a custom component from an external package named `my-external-package`:
Despite `MyFieldComponent` living in `src/components/MyFieldComponent.tsx` in `my-external-package`, this will not be accessible from the consuming project. Instead, we recommend exporting all custom components from one file in the external package. For example, you can define a `src/client.ts file in `my-external-package`:
```ts
'use client'
export { MyFieldComponent } from './components/MyFieldComponent'
```
Then, update the package.json of `my-external-package:
```json
{
...
"exports": {
"./client": {
"import": "./dist/client.js",
"types": "./dist/client.d.ts",
"default": "./dist/client.js"
}
}
}
```
This setup allows you to specify the component path as `my-external-package/client#MyFieldComponent` as seen above. The import map will generate:
```ts
import { MyFieldComponent } from 'my-external-package/client'
```
which is a valid way to access MyFieldComponent that can be resolved by the consuming project.
### Custom Components from unknown locations
By default, any component paths from known locations are added to the import map. However, if you need to add any components from unknown locations to the import map, you can do so by adding them to the `admin.dependencies` array in your Payload Config. This is mostly only relevant for plugin authors and not for regular Payload users.
Example:
```ts
export default {
// ...
admin: {
// ...
dependencies: {
myTestComponent: { // myTestComponent is the key - can be anything
This way, `TestComponent` is added to the import map, no matter if it's referenced in a known location or not. On the client, you can then use the component like this:
```tsx
'use client'
import { RenderComponent, useConfig } from '@payloadcms/ui'
| **`Nav`** | Contains the sidebar / mobile menu in its entirety. |
| **`beforeNavLinks`** | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Nav, _before_ the links themselves. |
| **`afterNavLinks`** | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Nav, _after_ the links. |
| **`beforeDashboard`** | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _before_ the default dashboard contents. |
| **`afterDashboard`** | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _after_ the default dashboard contents. |
| **`beforeLogin`** | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Login, _before_ the default login form. |
| **`afterLogin`** | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Login, _after_ the default login form. |
| **`logout.Button`** | The button displayed in the sidebar that logs the user out. |
| **`graphics.Icon`** | The simplified logo used in contexts like the the `Nav` component. |
| **`graphics.Logo`** | The full logo used in contexts like the `Login` view. |
| **`providers`** | Custom [React Context](https://react.dev/learn/scaling-up-with-reducer-and-context) providers that will wrap the entire Admin Panel. [More details](#custom-providers). |
| **`actions`** | An array of Custom Components to be rendered in the header of the Admin Panel, providing additional interactivity and functionality. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Admin Panel. [More details](./views). |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
You can also use set [Collection Components](./collections#components) and [Global Components](./globals#components) in their respective configs.
</Banner>
### Custom Providers
As you add more and more Custom Components to your [Admin Panel](./overview), you may find it helpful to add additional [React Context](https://react.dev/learn/scaling-up-with-reducer-and-context)(s). Payload allows you to inject your own context providers in your app so you can export your own custom hooks, etc.
To add a Custom Provider, use the `admin.components.providers` property in your [Payload Config](../getting-started/overview):
_For more examples regarding how to customize components, look at the following [examples](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/master/test/admin/components)._
Then build your Custom Provider as follows:
### Collections
```tsx
'use client'
import React, { createContext, useContext } from 'react'
You can override components on a Collection-by-Collection basis via each Collection's `admin` property.
| **`views.Edit`** | Used while this Global is being edited. |
### 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 type="warning">
<strong>Reminder:</strong> Custom Providers are by definition Client Components. This means they must include the `use client` directive at the top of their files and cannot use server-only code.
</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) |
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default, with the exception of [Custom Providers](#custom-providers). This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api) directly on the front-end, among other things.
## Cell Component
To make building Custom Components as easy as possible, Payload automatically provides common props, such as the [`payload`](../local-api/overview) class and the [`i18n`](../configuration/i18n) object. This means that when building Custom Components within the Admin Panel, you do not have to get these yourself.
These are the props that will be passed to your custom Cell to use in your own components.
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";
| `payload` | The [Payload](../local-api/overview) class. |
| `i18n` | The [i18n](../i18n) object. |
Custom Components also receive various other props that are specific to the context in which the Custom Component is being rendered. For example, [Custom Views](./views) receive the `user` prop. For a full list of available props, consult the documentation related to the specific component you are working with.
<Banner type="success">
See [Root Components](#root-components), [Collection Components](#collection-components), [Global Components](#global-components), or [Field Components](#custom-field-components) for a complete list of all available components.
</Banner>
### Client Components
When [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components), it's still possible to use client-side code such as `useState` or the `window` object. To do this, simply add the `use client` directive at the top of your file. Payload will automatically detect and remove all default, [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) before rendering your component.
Client Components cannot be passed [non-serializable props](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types). If you are rendering your Client Component _from within_ a Server Component, ensure that its props are serializable.
</Banner>
### Accessing the Payload Config
From any Server Component, the [Payload Config](../configuration/overview) can be accessed directly from the `payload` prop:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
export default async function MyServerComponent({
payload: {
config // highlight-line
}
}) {
return (
<Link href={config.serverURL}>
Go Home
</Link>
)
}
```
But, the Payload Config is [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) by design. It is full of custom validation functions, React components, etc. This means that the Payload Config, in its entirety, cannot be passed directly to Client Components.
For this reason, Payload creates a Client Config and passes it into the Config Provider. This is a serializable version of the Payload Config that can be accessed from any Client Component via the [`useConfig`](./hooks#useconfig) hook:
For more information regarding the hooks that are available to you while you
build custom components, including the <strong>useField</strong> hook, <a href="/docs/admin/hooks" style={{ color: "black" }}>click here</a>.
See [Using Hooks](#using-hooks) for more details.
</Banner>
## Custom routes
All [Field Components](./fields) automatically receive their respective Field Config through a common [`field`](./fields#the-field-prop) prop:
You can easily add your own custom routes to the Payload Admin panel using the `admin.components.routes` property. Payload currently uses the extremely powerful React Router v5.x and custom routes support all the properties of the React Router `<Route />` component.
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
**Custom routes support the following properties:**
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
To make it easier to [build your Custom Components](#building-custom-components), you can use [Payload's built-in React Hooks](./hooks) in any Client Component. For example, you might want to interact with one of Payload's many React Contexts:
#### Custom route components
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import { useDocumentInfo } from '@payloadcms/ui'
Your custom route components will be given all the props that a React Router `<Route />` typically would receive, as well as two props from Payload:
| **`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. |
return (
<p>{`Entity slug: ${slug}`}</p>
)
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
It's up to you to secure your custom routes. If your route requires a user to
be logged in or to have certain access rights, you should handle that within
your route component yourself.

See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.

You can find examples of custom route views in the [Payload source code `/test/admin/components/views` folder](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/master/test/admin/components/views). There, you'll find two custom routes:
All Custom Components can support multiple languages to be consistent with Payload's [Internationalization](../configuration/i18n). To do this, first add your translation resources to the [I18n Config](../configuration/i18n).
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
From any Server Component, you can translate resources using the `getTranslation` function from `@payloadcms/translations`. All Server Components automatically receive the `i18n` object as a prop by default.
To see how to pass in your custom views to create custom routes of your own, take a look at the `admin.components.routes` property of the [Payload test admin config](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/master/test/admin/config.ts).
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { getTranslation } from '@payloadcms/translations'
## Custom providers
export default async function MyServerComponent({ i18n }) {
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.
return (
<p>{translatedTitle}</p>
)
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Reminder:</strong> Don't forget to pass the **children** prop through
the provider component for the admin UI to show
The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useTranslation` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
</Banner>
### Getting the Current Locale
All [Custom Views](./views) can support multiple locales to be consistent with Payload's [Localization](../configuration/localization). They automatically receive the `locale` object as a prop by default. This can be used to scope API requests, etc.:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
export default async function MyServerComponent({ payload, locale }) {
const localizedPage = await payload.findByID({
collection: 'pages',
id: '123',
locale,
})
return (
<p>{localizedPage.title}</p>
)
}
```
The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useLocale` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { useLocale } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
const locale = useLocale() // highlight-line
const trans = {
en: 'Hello',
es: 'Hola',
}
return (
<span>{trans[locale.code]}</span>
)
}
```

See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.

### 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.
Payload has a robust [CSS Library](./customizing-css) that you can use to style your Custom Components similarly to Payload's built-in styling. This will ensure that your Custom Components match the existing design system, and so that they automatically adapt to any theme changes that might occur.
To make use of Payload SCSS variables / mixins to use directly in your own components, you can import them as follows:
To apply custom styles, simply import your own `.css` or `.scss` file into your Custom Component:
```
@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 `react-i18next` in your components.
Then to colorize your Custom Component's background, for example, you can use the following CSS:
In any custom component you can get the selected locale with the `useLocale` hook. 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]} </span>;
};
```scss
.my-component {
background-color: var(--theme-elevation-500);
}
```
Payload also exports its [SCSS](https://sass-lang.com) library for reuse which includes mixins, etc. To use this, simply import it as follows into your `.scss` file:
```scss
@import '~payload/scss';
.my-component {
@include mid-break {
background-color: var(--theme-elevation-900);
}
}
```

<strong>Note:</strong>
You can also drill into Payload's own component styles, or easily apply global, app-wide CSS. More on that [here](./customizing-css).

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 easily 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.
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/master/src/admin/scss/app.scss) and [`./src/admin/scss/colors.scss`](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/master/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.
<strong>Note:</strong>
If you are building [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.
## 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">
<strong>Warning:</strong>
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.
[Fields](../fields/overview) within the [Admin Panel](./overview) can be endlessly customized in their appearance and behavior without affecting their underlying data structure. Fields are designed to withstand heavy modification or even complete replacement through the use of [Custom Field Components](#field-components), [Conditional Logic](#conditional-logic), [Custom Validations](../fields/overview#validation), and more.
For example, your app might need to render a specific interface that Payload does not inherently support, such as a color picker. To do this, you could replace the default [Text Field](../fields/text) input with your own user-friendly component that formats the data into a valid color value.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
Don't see a built-in field type that you need? Build it! Using a combination of [Field Validations](../fields/overview#validation)
and [Custom Components](./components), you can override the entirety of how a component functions within the [Admin Panel](./overview) to effectively create your own field type.
</Banner>
## Admin Options
You can customize the appearance and behavior of fields within the [Admin Panel](./overview) through the `admin` property of any [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| **`condition`** | Programmatically show / hide fields based on other fields. [More details](../admin/fields#conditional-logic). |
| **`components`** | All Field Components can be swapped out for [Custom Components](../admin/components) that you define. [More details](../admin/fields). |
| **`description`** | Helper text to display alongside the field to provide more information for the editor. [More details](../admin/fields#description). |
| **`position`** | Specify if the field should be rendered in the sidebar by defining `position: 'sidebar'`. |
| **`width`** | Restrict the width of a field. You can pass any string-based value here, be it pixels, percentages, etc. This property is especially useful when fields are nested within a `Row` type where they can be organized horizontally. |
| **`style`** | [CSS Properties](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS) to inject into the root element of the field. |
| **`className`** | Attach a [CSS class attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Class_selectors) to the root DOM element of a field. |
| **`readOnly`** | Setting a field to `readOnly` has no effect on the API whatsoever but disables the admin component's editability to prevent editors from modifying the field's value. |
| **`disabled`** | If a field is `disabled`, it is completely omitted from the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). |
| **`disableBulkEdit`** | Set `disableBulkEdit` to `true` to prevent fields from appearing in the select options when making edits for multiple documents. |
| **`disableListColumn`** | Set `disableListColumn` to `true` to prevent fields from appearing in the list view column selector. |
| **`disableListFilter`** | Set `disableListFilter` to `true` to prevent fields from appearing in the list view filter options. |
| **`hidden`** | Will transform the field into a `hidden` input type. Its value will still submit with requests in the Admin Panel, but the field itself will not be visible to editors. |
## Field Components
Within the [Admin Panel](./overview), fields are rendered in three distinct places:
- [Field](#the-field-component) - The actual form field rendered in the Edit View.
- [Cell](#the-cell-component) - The table cell component rendered in the List View.
- [Filter](#the-filter-component) - The filter component rendered in the List View.
To easily swap in Field Components with your own, use the `admin.components` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| **`Field`** | The form field rendered of the Edit View. [More details](#the-field-component). |
| **`Cell`** | The table cell rendered of the List View. [More details](#the-cell-component). |
| **`Filter`** | The filter component rendered in the List View. [More details](#the-filter-component). || Component | Description |
| **`Label`** | Override the default Label of the Field Component. [More details](#the-label-component). |
| **`Error`** | Override the default Error of the Field Component. [More details](#the-error-component). |
| **`Description`** | Override the default Description of the Field Component. [More details](#the-description-component). |
| **`beforeInput`** | An array of elements that will be added before the input of the Field Component. [More details](#afterinput-and-beforeinput).|
| **`afterInput`** | An array of elements that will be added after the input of the Field Component. [More details](#afterinput-and-beforeinput). |
_\* **`beforeInput`** and **`afterInput`** are only supported in fields that do not contain other fields, such as [`Text`](../fields/text), and [`Textarea`](../fields/textarea)._
### The Field Component
The Field Component is the actual form field rendered in the Edit View. This is the input that user's will interact with when editing a document.
To easily swap in your own Field Component, use the `admin.components.Field` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
_For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components)._
<Banner type="warning">
Instead of replacing the entire Field Component, you can alternately replace or slot-in only specific parts by using the [`Label`](#the-label-component), [`Error`](#the-error-component), [`beforeInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput), and [`afterInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput) properties.
| **`docPreferences`** | An object that contains the [Preferences](./preferences) for the document.
| **`field`** | In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`clientField`** | Server components receive the Client Field Config through this prop. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`locale`** | The locale of the field. [More details](../configuration/localization). |
| **`readOnly`** | A boolean value that represents if the field is read-only or not. |
| **`user`** | The currently authenticated user. [More details](../authentication/overview). |
| **`validate`** | A function that can be used to validate the field. |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Reminder:</strong>
All [Custom Server Components](./components) receive the `payload` and `i18n` properties by default. See [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components) for more details.
</Banner>
#### Sending and receiving values from the form
When swapping out the `Field` component, you are responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself.
To do so, import the [`useField`](./hooks#usefield) hook from `@payloadcms/ui` and use it to manage the field's value:
For a complete list of all available React hooks, see the [Payload React Hooks](./hooks) documentation. For additional help, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
</Banner>
#### TypeScript
When building Custom Field Components, you can import the component type to ensure type safety. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and for every client/server environment. The convention is to prepend the field type onto the target type, i.e. `TextFieldClientComponent`:
```tsx
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### The `field` Prop
All Field Components are passed their own Field Config through a common `field` prop. Within Server Components, this is the original Field Config as written within your Payload Config. Within Client Components, however, this is a "Client Config", which is a sanitized, client-friendly version of the Field Config. This is because the original Field Config is [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types), meaning it cannot be passed into Client Components without first being transformed.
The Client Field Config is an exact copy of the original Field Config, minus all non-serializable properties, plus all evaluated functions such as field labels, [Custom Components](../components), etc.
Server Component:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
| **`_isPresentational`** | A boolean indicating that the field is purely visual and does not directly affect data or change data shape, i.e. the [UI Field](../fields/ui). |
| **`_path`** | A string representing the direct, dynamic path to the field at runtime, i.e. `myGroup.myArray[0].myField`. |
| **`_schemaPath`** | A string representing the direct, static path to the [Field Config](../fields/overview), i.e. `myGroup.myArray.myField` |
<Banner type="info">
<strong>Note:</strong>
These properties are underscored to denote that they are not part of the original Field Config, and instead are attached during client sanitization to make fields easier to work with on the front-end.
</Banner>
#### TypeScript
When building Custom Field Components, you can import the client field props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment.

```tsx
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### The Cell Component
The Cell Component is rendered in the table of the List View. It represents the value of the field when displayed in a table cell.
To easily swap in your own Cell Component, use the `admin.components.Cell` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| **`field`** | In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`clientField`** | Server components receive the Client Field Config through this prop. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`link`** | A boolean representing whether this cell should be wrapped in a link. |
| **`onClick`** | A function that is called when the cell is clicked. |
<Banner type="info">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
Use the [`useTableCell`](./hooks#usetablecell) hook to subscribe to the field's `cellData` and `rowData`.
</Banner>
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Reminder:</strong>
All [Custom Server Components](./components) receive the `payload` and `i18n` properties by default. See [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components) for more details.
</Banner>
### The Label Component
The Label Component is rendered anywhere a field needs to be represented by a label. This is typically used in the Edit View, but can also be used in the List View and elsewhere.
To easily swap in your own Label Component, use the `admin.components.Label` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| **`field`** | In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`clientField`** | Server components receive the Client Field Config through this prop. [More details](#the-field-prop). |

```tsx
import type {
TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### The Error Component
The Error Component is rendered when a field fails validation. It is typically displayed beneath the field input in a visually-compelling style.
To easily swap in your own Error Component, use the `admin.components.Error` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| **`field`** | In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`clientField`** | Server components receive the Client Field Config through this prop. [More details](#the-field-prop). |

```tsx
import type {
TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
// And so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### The Description Property
Field Descriptions are used to provide additional information to the editor about a field, such as special instructions. Their placement varies from field to field, but typically are displayed with subtle style differences beneath the field inputs.
A description can be configured in three ways:
- As a string.
- As a function which returns a string. [More details](#description-functions).
- As a React component. [More details](#the-description-component).
To easily add a Custom Description to a field, use the `admin.description` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
To replace the Field Description with a [Custom Component](./components), use the `admin.components.Description` property. [More details](#the-description-component).
</Banner>
#### Description Functions
Custom Descriptions can also be defined as a function. Description Functions are executed on the server and can be used to format simple descriptions based on the user's current [Locale](../configuration/localization).
To easily add a Description Function to a field, set the `admin.description` property to a _function_ in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
| **`t`** | The `t` function used to internationalize the Admin Panel. [More details](../configuration/i18n) |
### The Description Component
Alternatively to the [Description Property](#the-description-property), you can also use a [Custom Component](./components) as the Field Description. This can be useful when you need to provide more complex feedback to the user, such as rendering dynamic field values or other interactive elements.
To easily add a Description Component to a field, use the `admin.components.Description` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
| **`field`** | In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. [More details](#the-field-prop). |
| **`clientField`** | Server components receive the Client Field Config through this prop. [More details](#the-field-prop). |

#### TypeScript
When building Custom Description Components, you can import the component props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Description Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to append `DescriptionServerComponent` or `DescriptionClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent`.
```tsx
import type {
TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
// And so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### afterInput and beforeInput
With these properties you can add multiple components _before_ and _after_ the input element, as their name suggests. This is useful when you need to render additional elements alongside the field without replacing the entire field component.
To add components before and after the input element, use the `admin.components.beforeInput` and `admin.components.afterInput` properties in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
_For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components)._
## Conditional Logic
You can show and hide fields based on what other fields are doing by utilizing conditional logic on a field by field basis. The `condition` property on a field's admin config accepts a function which takes three arguments:
- `data` - the entire document's data that is currently being edited
- `siblingData` - only the fields that are direct siblings to the field with the condition
- `{ user }` - the final argument is an object containing the currently authenticated user
The `condition` function should return a boolean that will control if the field should be displayed or not.
The behavior of [Globals](../configuration/globals) within the [Admin Panel](./overview) can be fully customized to fit the needs of your application. This includes grouping or hiding their navigation links, adding [Custom Components](./components), setting page metadata, and more.
To configure Admin Options for Globals, use the `admin` property in your Global Config:
| **`group`** | Text used as a label for grouping Collection and Global links together in the navigation. |
| **`hidden`** | Set to true or a function, called with the current user, returning true to exclude this Global from navigation and admin routing. |
| **`components`** | Swap in your own React components to be used within this Global. [More details](#components). |
| **`preview`** | Function to generate a preview URL within the Admin Panel for this Global that can point to your app. [More details](#preview). |
| **`livePreview`** | Enable real-time editing for instant visual feedback of your front-end application. [More details](../live-preview/overview). |
| **`hideAPIURL`** | Hides the "API URL" meta field while editing documents within this collection. |
| **`meta`** | Page metadata overrides to apply to this Global within the Admin Panel. [More details](./metadata). |
### Components
Globals can set their own [Custom Components](./components) which only apply to [Global](../configuration/globals)-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](./overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
To override Global Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```ts
import type { SanitizedGlobalConfig } from 'payload'
| **`elements.SaveButton`** | Replace the default Save Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be disabled. |
| **`elements.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default Save Draft Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
| **`elements.PublishButton`** | Replace the default Publish Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled. |
| **`elements.PreviewButton`** | Replace the default Preview Button with a Custom Component. [Preview](#preview) must be enabled. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Admin Panel. [More details](./views). |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
</Banner>
### Preview
It is possible to display a Preview Button within the Edit View of the Admin Panel. This will allow editors to visit the frontend of your app the corresponds to the document they are actively editing. This way they can preview the latest, potentially unpublished changes.
To configure the Preview Button, set the `admin.preview` property to a function in your Global Config:
```ts
import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload'
export const MainMenu: GlobalConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
preview: (doc, { locale }) => {
if (doc?.slug) {
return `/${doc.slug}?locale=${locale}`
}
return null
},
// highlight-end
},
}
```
The preview function receives two arguments:
| Argument | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **`doc`** | The Document being edited. |
| **`ctx`** | An object containing `locale` and `token` properties. The `token` is the currently logged-in user's JWT. |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
For fully working example of this, check of the official [Draft Preview Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/draft-preview) in the [Examples Directory](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples).
Every page within the Admin Panel automatically receives dynamic, auto-generated metadata derived from live document data, the user's current locale, and more, without any additional configuration. This includes the page title, description, og:image and everything in between. Metadata is fully configurable at the root level and cascades down to individual collections, documents, and custom views, allowing for the ability to control metadata on any page with high precision.
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',
href: '/favicon.png',
},
],
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Root Metadata:
| Key | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **`title`** | `string` | The title of the Admin Panel. |
| **`description`** | `string` | The description of the Admin Panel. |
| **`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. |
| **`icons`** | `IconConfig[]` | An array of icon objects. [More details](#icons) |
| **`keywords`** | `string` | A comma-separated list of keywords to include in the metadata of the Admin Panel. |
| **`openGraph`** | `OpenGraphConfig` | An object containing Open Graph metadata. [More details](#open-graph) |
| **`titleSuffix`** | `string` | A suffix to append to the end of the title of every page. Defaults to "- Payload". |

<strong>Reminder:</strong>
These are the _root-level_ options for the Admin Panel. You can also customize [Collection Metadata](./collections), [Global Metadata](./globals), and [Document Metadata](./documents) in 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 `icons` key within the `admin.meta` object in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
meta: {
// highlight-start
icons: [
// highlight-end
{
rel: 'icon',
type: 'image/png',
href: '/favicon.png',
},
{
rel: 'apple-touch-icon',
type: 'image/png',
href: '/apple-touch-icon.png',
},
],
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Icons:
| Key | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **`rel`** | `string` | The HTML `rel` attribute of the icon. |
| **`type`** | `string` | The MIME type of the icon. |
| **`color`** | `string` | The color of the icon. |
| **`fetchPriority`** | `string` | The [fetch priority](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLImageElement/fetchPriority) of the icon. |
| **`media`** | `string` | The [media query](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_media_queries/Using_media_queries) of the icon. |
| **`sizes`** | `string` | The [sizes](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLImageElement/sizes) of the icon. |
| **`url`** | `string` | The URL pointing the resource of the icon. |
### 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 `openGraph` key within the `admin.meta` object 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',
},
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Open Graph Metadata:
| Key | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **`description`** | `string` | The description of the Admin Panel. |
| **`images`** | `OGImageConfig | OGImageConfig[]` | An array of image objects. |
| **`siteName`** | `string` | The name of the site. |
| **`title`** | `string` | The title of the Admin Panel. |
## 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 { 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
},
},
}
```
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](./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, [diff versions](../versions/overview), and so much more.
The Payload Admin panel is built with Webpack, 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](./components)—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).
<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 more](./components).

## 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">
<strong>Note:</strong>
If you don't use the [REST API](../rest/overview) or [GraphQL API](../graphql/overview), you can delete the [Next.js files corresponding to those routes](../admin/overview#project-structure), however, the overhead of this API is completely constrained to these endpoints, and will not slow down or affect Payload outside of the endpoints.
</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:
| Option | Description |
| --------------------- | -------------|
| `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) |
| `meta` | Base meta data to use for the Admin panel. Included properties are `titleSuffix`, `ogImage`, and `favicon`. |
| `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/master/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. |
| `components` | Component overrides that affect the entirety of the Admin panel. [More](/docs/admin/components) |

| **`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. |
| **`disable`** | If set to `true`, the entire Admin Panel will be disabled. |
| **`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). |
| **`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">
<strong>Reminder:</strong>
These are the _root-level_ options for the Admin Panel. You can also customize [Collection Admin Options](./collections) and [Global Admin Options](./globals) 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 <a href="/docs/authentication/overview">Authentication</a>.
</Banner>
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:
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`:
```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">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
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.
</Banner>
**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`!**
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.
For example, you may wish to have two Collections that both support `Authentication`:
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:
- `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
- `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
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.
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.
### Light and dark modes
### Role-based Access Control
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.
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:
### Restricting user access
- `super-admin` - full access to the Admin Panel to perform any action
- `editor` - limited access to the Admin Panel to only manage content
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.
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/payload).
## 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">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
You can easily add _new_ routes to the Admin Panel through [Custom Endpoints](../rest-api/overview#custom-endpoints) and [Custom Views](./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">
<strong>Note:</strong>
If you set Root-level Routes _before_ auto-generating the Admin Panel, 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. |
| `reset` | `/reset` | The password reset page. |
| `unauthorized` | `/unauthorized` | The unauthorized page. |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
You can also swap out entire _views_ out for your own, using the `admin.views` property of the Payload Config. See [Custom Views](./views) for more information.
</Banner>
## I18n
The Payload Admin Panel is translated in over [30 languages and counting](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/beta/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.
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.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong><br/>
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.
