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

 The [Examples Directory](./examples) is a great resource for learning how to setup Payload in a variety of different ways, but you can also find great examples in our blog and throughout our social media.
 
-If you'd like to run the examples, you can either copy them to a folder outside this repo or run them directly by (1) navigating to the example's subfolder (`cd examples/your-example-folder`) and (2) using the `--ignore-workspace` flag to bypass workspace restrictions (e.g., `pnpm --ignore-workspace install` or `pnpm --ignore-workspace dev`).

-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'
-import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
-import path from 'path'
-const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
-const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
-
-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:
-
-| Property      | Description                                                                                                                   |
-|---------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-| `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.
-
-Here is an example:
-
-src/components/Logout.tsx
-```tsx
-'use client'
-import React from 'react'
-
-export const MyComponent = ({ text }: { text: string }) => {
-  return (
-    <button>Click me! {text}</button>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-payload.config.ts:
-```ts
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-const config = buildConfig({
-  // ...
-  admin: { // highlight-line
-    components: {
-      logout: {
-        Button: {
-          path: '/src/components/Logout',
-          clientProps: {
-            text: 'Some Text.'
-          },
-          exportName: 'MyComponent'
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  },
-})
-```
-
-### Import Maps
-
-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`:
-
-```ts
-import type { Field } from 'payload'
-export const MyCustomField: Field = {
-  type: 'text',
-  name: 'MyField',
-  admin: {
-    components: {
-      Field: 'my-external-package/client#MyFieldComponent'
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-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
-        path: '/components/TestComponent.js#TestComponent',
-        type: 'component',
-        clientProps: {
-          test: 'hello',
-        },
-      },
-    },
-  }
-}
-```
-
-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'
-import React from 'react'
-
-export const CustomView = () => {
-  const { config } = useConfig()
-  return (
-    <div>
-      <RenderComponent mappedComponent={config.admin.dependencies?.myTestComponent} />
-    </div>
-  )
-}
-```

-### Specificity rules
-
-All Payload CSS is encapsulated inside CSS layers under `@layer payload-default`. Any custom css will now have the highest possible specificity.
-
-We have also provided a layer `@layer payload` if you want to use layers and ensure that your styles are applied after payload.
-
-To override existing styles in a way that the previous rules of specificity would be respected you can use the default layer like so

-#### 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'
-import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-
-export const MyServerField: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
-  return <TextField field={clientField} />
-}
-```
-
-<Banner type="info">
-  <strong>Tip:</strong>
-  Server Components can still access the original Field Config through the `field` prop.

-
-```tsx

-import React from 'react'
-import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
-
-export const MyTextField: TextFieldClientComponent = ({ field }) => {
-  return <TextField field={field} />
-}

-| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **`_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`. |

-  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.

-desc: Ensure your documents are locked while being edited, preventing concurrent edits from multiple users and preserving data integrity.
-keywords: locking, document locking, edit locking, document, concurrency, Payload, headless, Content Management System, cms, javascript, react, node, nextjs
----
-
-Document locking in Payload ensures that only one user at a time can edit a document, preventing data conflicts and accidental overwrites. When a document is locked, other users are prevented from making changes until the lock is released, ensuring data integrity in collaborative environments.
-
-The lock is automatically triggered when a user begins editing a document within the Admin Panel and remains in place until the user exits the editing view or the lock expires due to inactivity.
-
-## How it works
-
-When a user starts editing a document, Payload locks the document for that user. If another user tries to access the same document, they will be notified that it is currently being edited and can choose one of the following options:
-
-- View in Read-Only Mode: View the document without making any changes.
-- Take Over Editing: Take over editing from the current user, which locks the document for the new editor and notifies the original user.
-- Return to Dashboard: Navigate away from the locked document and continue with other tasks.
-
-The lock will automatically expire after a set period of inactivity, configurable using the duration property in the lockDocuments configuration, after which others can resume editing.
-
-<Banner type="info"> <strong>Note:</strong> If your application does not require document locking, you can disable this feature for any collection by setting the <code>lockDocuments</code> property to <code>false</code>. </Banner>
-
-### Config Options
-
-The lockDocuments property exists on both the Collection Config and the Global Config. By default, document locking is enabled for all collections and globals, but you can customize the lock duration or disable the feature entirely.
-
-Here’s an example configuration for document locking:
-
-```ts
-import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
-  slug: 'posts',
-  fields: [
-    {
-      name: 'title',
-      type: 'text',
-    },
-    // other fields...
-  ],
-  lockDocuments: {
-    duration: 600, // Duration in seconds
-  },
-}
-```
-
-#### Locking Options

-| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| **`lockDocuments`** | Enables or disables document locking for the collection or global. By default, document locking is enabled. Set to an object to configure, or set to false to disable locking. |
-| **`duration`**      | Specifies the duration (in seconds) for how long a document remains locked without user interaction. The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).                                   |
-
-### Impact on APIs
-
-Document locking affects both the Local API and the REST API, ensuring that if a document is locked, concurrent users will not be able to perform updates or deletes on that document (including globals). If a user attempts to update or delete a locked document, they will receive an error.
-
-Once the document is unlocked or the lock duration has expired, other users can proceed with updates or deletes as normal.
-
-#### Overriding Locks
-
-For operations like update and delete, Payload includes an `overrideLock` option. This boolean flag, when set to `false`, enforces document locks, ensuring that the operation will not proceed if another user currently holds the lock.
-
-By default, `overrideLock` is set to `true`, which means that document locks are ignored, and the operation will proceed even if the document is locked. To enforce locks and prevent updates or deletes on locked documents, set `overrideLock: false`.
-
-```ts
-const result = await payload.update({
-  collection: 'posts',
-  id: '123',
-  data: {
-    title: 'New title',
-  },
-  overrideLock: false, // Enforces the document lock, preventing updates if the document is locked
-})
-```
-
-This option is particularly useful in scenarios where administrative privileges or specific workflows require you to override the lock and ensure the operation is completed.

-keywords: admin, components, custom, documentation, Content Management System, cms, headless, javascript, node, react, nextjs
----
-
-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". |
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  <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',

-        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: {

-      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:
-
-```ts
-{
-  // ...
-  admin: {
-    views: {
-      dashboard: {

-Your Custom Root Views can optionally use one of the templates that Payload provides. The most common of these is the Default Template which provides the basic layout and navigation. Here is an example of what that might look like:
-
-```tsx
-import type { AdminViewProps } from 'payload'
-
-import { DefaultTemplate } from '@payloadcms/next/templates'
-import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
-import React from 'react'
-
-export const MyCustomView: React.FC<AdminViewProps> = ({
-  initPageResult,
-  params,
-  searchParams,
-}) => {
-  return (
-    <DefaultTemplate

-#### Cross domain authentication
-
-If your frontend is on a different domain than your Payload API then you will not be able to use HTTP-only cookies for authentication by default as they will be considered third-party cookies by the browser.
-There are a few strategies to get around this:
-
-##### 1. Use subdomains
-
-Cookies can cross subdomains without being considered third party cookies, for example if your API is at api.example.com then you can authenticate from example.com.
-
-##### 2. Configure cookies
-
-If option 1 isn't possible, then you can get around this limitation by [configuring your cookies](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/authentication/overview#config-options) on your authentication collection to achieve the following setup:
-
-```
-SameSite: None // allows the cookie to cross domains
-Secure: true // ensures its sent over HTTPS only
-HttpOnly: true // ensures its not accessible via client side JavaScript
-```
-
-Configuration example:
-
-```ts
-{
-  slug: 'users',
-  auth: {
-    cookies: {
-      sameSite: 'None',
-      secure: true,
-    }
-  },
-  fields: [
-    // your auth fields here
-  ]
-},
-```
-
-If you're configuring [cors](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/production/preventing-abuse#cross-origin-resource-sharing-cors) in your Payload config, you won't be able to use a wildcard anymore, you'll need to specify the list of allowed domains.
-
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  <strong>Good to know:</strong>
-  Setting up <code>secure: true</code> will not work if you're developing on <code>http://localhost</code> or any non-https domain. For local development you should conditionally set this to <code>false</code> based on the environment.

-    }
   },
 }

-## Server vs. Client
-
-The Payload Config only lives on the server and is not allowed to contain any client-side code. That way, you can load up the Payload Config in any server environment or standalone script, without having to use Bundlers or Node.js loaders to handle importing client-only modules (e.g. scss files or React Components) without any errors.
-
-Behind the curtains, the Next.js-based Admin Panel generates a ClientConfig, which strips away any server-only code and enriches the config with React Components.
-
-## Compatibility flags
-
-The Payload Config can accept compatibility flags for running the newest versions but with older databases. You should only use these flags if you need to, and should confirm that you need to prior to enabling these flags.
-
-`allowLocalizedWithinLocalized`
-
-Payload localization works on a field-by-field basis. As you can nest fields within other fields, you could potentially nest a localized field within a localized field—but this would be redundant and unnecessary. There would be no reason to define a localized field within a localized parent field, given that the entire data structure from the parent field onward would be localized.
-
-By default, Payload will remove the `localized: true` property from sub-fields if a parent field is localized. Set this compatibility flag to `true` only if you have an existing Payload MongoDB database from pre-3.0, and you have nested localized fields that you would like to maintain without migrating.

 This will require that your build pipeline can connect to your database, and it will simply run the `payload migrate` command prior to starting the build process. By calling `payload migrate`, Payload will automatically execute any migrations in your `/migrations` folder that have not yet been executed against your production database, in the order that they were created.
 
 If it fails, the deployment will be rejected. But now, with your build script set up to run your migrations, you will be all set! Next time you deploy, your CI will execute the required migrations for you, and your database will be caught up with the shape that your Payload Config requires.
-
-## Running migrations in production
-
-In certain cases, you might want to run migrations at runtime when the server starts. Running them during build time may be impossible due to not having access to your database connection while building or similar reasoning.
-
-If you're using a long-running server or container where your Node server starts up one time and then stays initialized, you might prefer to run migrations on server startup instead of within your CI.
-
-In order to run migrations at runtime, on initialization, you can pass your migrations to your database adapter under the `prodMigrations` key as follows:
-
-```ts
-// Import your migrations from the `index.ts` file
-// that Payload generates for you
-import { migrations } from './migrations'
-import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
-
-export default buildConfig({
-  // your config here
-  db: postgresAdapter({
-    //  your adapter config here
-    prodMigrations: migrations
-  })
-})
-```
-
-Passing your migrations as shown above will tell Payload, in production only, to execute any migrations that need to be run prior to completing the initialization of Payload. This is ideal for long-running services where Payload will only be initialized at startup.

-<Banner type="warning">
-  Warning - if Payload is instructed to run migrations in production, this may slow down serverless cold starts on platforms such as Vercel. Generally, this option should only be used for long-running servers / containers.

+### Collections Options
+
+You can configure the way the MongoDB adapter works on a collection-by-collection basis, including customizing Mongoose `schemaOptions` for each collection schema created.
+
+Example:
+
+```ts
+const db = mongooseAdapter({
+  url: 'your-url-here',

+  }
+})

+### Global Options
+
+Payload automatically creates a single `globals` collection that correspond with any Payload globals that you define. When you initialize the `mongooseAdapter`, you can specify settings here for your globals in a similar manner to how you can for collections above. Right now, the only property available is `schemaOptions` but more may be added in the future.

@@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ desc: Database transactions are fully supported within Payload.
 
 Database transactions allow your application to make a series of database changes in an all-or-nothing commit. Consider an HTTP request that creates a new **Order** and has an `afterChange` hook to update the stock count of related **Items**. If an error occurs when updating an **Item** and an HTTP error is returned to the user, you would not want the new **Order** to be persisted or any other items to be changed either. This kind of interaction with the database is handled seamlessly with transactions.
 
-By default, Payload will use transactions for all data changing operations, as long as it is supported by the configured database. Database changes are contained within all Payload operations and any errors thrown will result in all changes being rolled back without being committed. When transactions are not supported by the database, Payload will continue to operate as expected without them.

 `payload.db.commitTransaction` - Takes the identifier for the transaction, finalizes any changes.
 `payload.db.rollbackTransaction` - Takes the identifier for the transaction, discards any changes.
 
-Payload uses the `req` object to pass the transaction ID through to the database adapter. If you are not using the `req` object, you can make a new object to pass the transaction ID directly to database adapter methods and local API calls.
-Example:
-
-```ts
-import payload from 'payload'
-import config from './payload.config'
-
-const standalonePayloadScript = async () => {
-  // initialize Payload
-  await payload.init({ config })
-
-  const transactionID = await payload.db.beginTransaction()
-
-  try {
-    // Make an update using the local API
-    await payload.update({

-      where: {

 ## Disabling Transactions
 
 If you wish to disable transactions entirely, you can do so by passing `false` as the `transactionOptions` in your database adapter configuration. All the official Payload database adapters support this option.
-
-In addition to allowing database transactions to be disabled at the adapter level. You can prevent Payload from using a transaction in direct calls to the local API by adding `disableTransaction: true` to the args. For example:
-
-```ts
-await payload.update({
-  collection: 'posts',
-  data: {
-    some: 'data',
-  },
-  where: {
-    slug: { equals: 'my-slug' }

-  req: { disableTransaction: true },
-})

-
-The Join Field is used to make Relationship and Upload fields available in the opposite direction. With a Join you can edit and view collections
-having reference to a specific collection document. The field itself acts as a virtual field, in that no new data is stored on the collection with a Join
-field. Instead, the Admin UI surfaces the related documents for a better editing experience and is surfaced by Payload's
-APIs.
-
-The Join field is useful in scenarios including:
-
-- To surface `Order`s for a given `Product`
-- To view and edit `Posts` belonging to a `Category`
-- To work with any bi-directional relationship data
-- Displaying where a document or upload is used in other documents

-  srcDark="https://payloadcms.com/images/docs/fields/join-dark.png"
-  alt="Shows Join field in the Payload Admin Panel"
-  caption="Admin Panel screenshot of Join field"
-/>
-
-For the Join field to work, you must have an existing [relationship](./relationship) or [upload](./upload) field in the
-collection you are joining. This will reference the collection and path of the field of the related documents.
-To add a Relationship Field, set the `type` to `join` in your [Field Config](./overview):
-
-```ts
-import type { Field } from 'payload/types'
-
-export const MyJoinField: Field = {
-  // highlight-start
-  name: 'relatedPosts',
-  type: 'join',
-  collection: 'posts',
-  on: 'category',
-  // highlight-end
-}
-
-// relationship field in another collection:
-export const MyRelationshipField: Field = {
-  name: 'category',
-  type: 'relationship',
-  relationTo: 'categories',
-}
-```
-
-In this example, the field is defined to show the related `posts` when added to a `category` collection. The `on`
-property is used to specify the relationship field name of the field that relates to the collection document.
-
-With this example, if you navigate to a Category in the Admin UI or an API response, you'll now see that the Posts which
-are related to the Category are populated for you. This is extremely powerful and can be used to define a wide variety
-of relationship types in an easy manner.
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  The Join field is extremely performant and does not add additional query overhead to your API responses until you add depth of 1 or above. It works in all database adapters. In MongoDB, we use <strong>aggregations</strong> to automatically join in related documents, and in relational databases, we use joins.
-</Banner>
-
-### Schema advice
-
-When modeling your database, you might come across many places where you'd like to feature bi-directional relationships.
-But here's an important consideration—you generally only want to store information about a given relationship in _one_
-place.
-
-Let's take the Posts and Categories example. It makes sense to define which category a post belongs to while editing the
-post.
-
-It would generally not be necessary to have a list of post IDs stored directly on the category as well, for a few
-reasons:
-
-- You want to have a "single source of truth" for relationships, and not worry about keeping two sources in sync with
-  one another
-- If you have hundreds, thousands, or even millions of posts, you would not want to store all of those post IDs on a
-  given category
-- Etc.
-
-This is where the `join` field is especially powerful. With it, you only need to store the `category_id` on the `post`,
-and Payload will automatically join in related posts for you when you query for categories. The related category is only
-stored on the post itself - and is not duplicated on both sides. However, the `join` field is what enables
-bi-directional APIs and UI for you.
-
-### Using the Join field to have full control of your database schema
-
-For typical polymorphic / many relationships, if you're using Postgres or SQLite, Payload will automatically create
-a `posts_rels` table, which acts as a junction table to store all of a given document's relationships.
-
-However, this might not be appropriate for your use case if you'd like to have more control over your database
-architecture. You might not want to have that `_rels` table, and would prefer to maintain / control your own junction
-table design.
-
-<Banner type="success">
-  With the Join field, you can control your own junction table design, and avoid Payload's automatic _rels table creation.
-</Banner>
-
-The `join` field can be used in conjunction with _any_ collection - and if you wanted to define your own "junction"
-collection, which, say, is called `categories_posts` and has a `post_id` and a `category_id` column, you can achieve
-complete control over the shape of that junction table.
-
-You could go a step further and leverage the `admin.hidden` property of the `categories_posts` collection to hide the
-collection from appearing in the Admin UI navigation.
-
-#### Specifying additional fields on relationships
-
-Another very powerful use case of the `join` field is to be able to define "context" fields on your relationships. Let's
-say that you have Posts and Categories, and use join fields on both your Posts and Categories collection to join in
-related docs from a new pseudo-junction collection called `categories_posts`. Now, the relations are stored in this
-third junction collection, and can be surfaced on both Posts and Categories. But, importantly, you could add
-additional "context" fields to this shared junction collection.
-
-For example, on this `categories_posts` collection, in addition to having the `category` and `post` fields, we could add custom "context" fields like `featured` or `spotlight`,
-which would allow you to store additional information directly on relationships.
-The `join` field gives you complete control over any type of relational architecture in Payload, all wrapped up in a powerful Admin UI.

-
-## Join Field Data
-
-When a document is returned that for a Join field is populated with related documents. The structure returned is an
-object with:
-
-- `docs` an array of related documents or only IDs if the depth is reached
-- `hasNextPage` a boolean indicating if there are additional documents
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "66e3431a3f23e684075aae9c",
-  "relatedPosts": {
-    "docs": [
-      {
-        "id": "66e3431a3f23e684075aaeb9",
-        // other fields...
-        "category": "66e3431a3f23e684075aae9c",
-      },
-      // { ... }
-    ],
-    "hasNextPage": false
-  },
-  // other fields...
-}
-```
-
-## Query Options
-
-The Join Field supports custom queries to filter, sort, and limit the related documents that will be returned. In
-addition to the specific query options for each Join Field, you can pass `joins: false` to disable all Join Field from
-returning. This is useful for performance reasons when you don't need the related documents.
-
-The following query options are supported:
-
-| Property    | Description                                                  |
-|-------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
-| **`limit`** | The maximum related documents to be returned, default is 10. |
-| **`where`** | An optional `Where` query to filter joined documents.        |
-| **`sort`**  | A string used to order related results                       |
-
-These can be applied to the local API, GraphQL, and REST API.
-
-### Local API
-
-By adding `joins` to the local API you can customize the request for each join field by the `name` of the field.
-
-```js
-const result = await db.findOne('categories', {
-  where: {
-    title: {
-      equals: 'My Category'
-    }
-  },
-  joins: {
-    relatedPosts: {
-      limit: 5,
-      where: {
-        title: {
-          equals: 'My Post'
-        }
-      },
-      sort: 'title'
-    }
-  }
-})
-```
-
-### Rest API
-
-The rest API supports the same query options as the local API. You can use the `joins` query parameter to customize the
-request for each join field by the `name` of the field. For example, an API call to get a document with the related
-posts limited to 5 and sorted by title:
-
-`/api/categories/${id}?joins[relatedPosts][limit]=5&joins[relatedPosts][sort]=title`
-
-You can specify as many `joins` parameters as needed for the same or different join fields for a single request.
-
-### GraphQL
-
-The GraphQL API supports the same query options as the local and REST APIs. You can specify the query options for each join field in your query.
-
-Example:
-
-```graphql
-query {
-  Categories {
-    docs {
-      relatedPosts(
-        sort: "createdAt"
-        limit: 5
-        where: {
-          author: {
-              equals: "66e3431a3f23e684075aaeb9"
-            }
-          }
-      ) {
-        docs {
-          title
-        }
-        hasNextPage
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```

-## Bi-directional relationships
-
-The `relationship` field on its own is used to define relationships for the document that contains the relationship field, and this can be considered as a "one-way" relationship. For example, if you have a Post that has a `category` relationship field on it, the related `category` itself will not surface any information about the posts that have the category set.

-However, the `relationship` field can be used in conjunction with the `Join` field to produce powerful bi-directional relationship authoring capabilities. If you're interested in bi-directional relationships, check out the [documentation for the Join field](./join).

 For [Auth-enabled Collections](../authentication/overview), this hook runs during `login` operations where a user with the provided credentials exist, but before a token is generated and added to the response. You can optionally modify the user that is returned, or throw an error in order to deny the login operation.

 The `beforeDuplicate` field hook is called on each locale (when using localization), when duplicating a document. It may be used when documents having the
 exact same properties may cause issue. This gives you a way to avoid duplicate names on `unique`, `required` fields or when external systems expect non-repeating values on documents.

+This hook gets called after `beforeChange` hooks are called and before the document is saved to the database.
 
 By Default, unique and required text fields Payload will append "- Copy" to the original document value. The default is not added if your field has its own, you must return non-unique values from your beforeDuplicate hook to avoid errors or enable the `disableDuplicate` option on the collection.

 ## Importing the Payload Config outside of Next.js
 
-Payload provides a convenient way to run standalone scripts, which can be useful for tasks like seeding your database or performing one-off operations.
+Your Payload Config likely has imports which need to be handled properly, such as CSS imports and similar. If you were to try and import your config without any Node support for SCSS / CSS files, you'll see errors that arise accordingly.
 
-In standalone scripts, can simply import the Payload Config and use it right away. If you need an initialized copy of Payload, you can then use the `getPayload` function. This can be useful for tasks like seeding your database or performing other one-off operations.
+This is especially relevant if you are importing your Payload Config outside of a bundler context, such as in standalone Node scripts.
+
+For these cases, you can use Payload's `importConfig` function to handle importing your config safely. It will handle everything you need to be able to load and use your Payload Config, without any client-side files present.
+
+Here's an example of a seed script that creates a few documents for local development / testing purposes, using Payload's `importConfig` function to safely import Payload, and the `getPayload` function to retrieve an initialized copy of Payload.
 
 ```ts
 // We are importing `getPayload` because we don't need HMR
 // for a standalone script. For usage of Payload inside Next.js,
 // you should always use `import { getPayloadHMR } from '@payloadcms/next/utilities'` instead.

-You can then execute the script using `payload run`. Example: if you placed this standalone script in `src/seed.ts`, you would execute it like this:
-
-```sh
-payload run src/seed.ts

-
-The `payload run` command does two things for you:
-
-1. It loads the environment variables the same way Next.js loads them, eliminating the need for additional dependencies like `dotenv`. The usage of `dotenv` is not recommended, as Next.js loads environment variables differently. By using `payload run`, you ensure consistent environment variable handling across your Payload and Next.js setup.
-2. It initializes tsx, allowing direct execution of TypeScript files manually installing tools like tsx or ts-node.

-### Troubleshooting
-
-If you encounter import-related errors, you have 2 options:
-
-#### Option 1: enable swc mode by appending `--use-swc` to the `payload` command:
-
-Example:
-```sh
-payload run src/seed.ts --use-swc
-```
-
-Note: Install @swc-node/register in your project first. While swc mode is faster than the default tsx mode, it might break for some imports.
-
-#### Option 2: use an alternative runtime like bun
-
-While we do not guarantee support for alternative runtimes, you are free to use them and disable payloads own transpilation by appending the `--disable-transpilation` flag to the `payload` command:

-| `pagination`          | Set to false to return all documents and avoid querying for document counts.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
-| `context`             | [Context](/docs/hooks/context), which will then be passed to `context` and `req.context`, which can be read by hooks. Useful if you want to pass additional information to the hooks which shouldn't be necessarily part of the document, for example a `triggerBeforeChange` option which can be read by the BeforeChange hook to determine if it should run or not. |
-| `disableErrors`       | When set to `true`, errors will not be thrown. Instead, the `findByID` operation will return `null`, and the `find` operation will return an empty documents array.                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
-| `disableTransaction`  | When set to `true`, a [database transactions](../database/transactions) will not be initialized.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
+| Local Option       | Description  |
+| ------------------ | ------------ |
+| `collection`       | Required for Collection operations. Specifies the Collection slug to operate against. |
+| `data`             | The data to use within the operation. Required for `create`, `update`. |
+| `depth`            | [Control auto-population](../queries/depth) of nested relationship and upload fields. |
+| `locale`           | Specify [locale](/docs/configuration/localization) for any returned documents. |
+| `fallbackLocale`   | Specify a [fallback locale](/docs/configuration/localization) to use for any returned documents. |
+| `overrideAccess`   | Skip access control. By default, this property is set to true within all Local API operations. |
+| `user`             | If you set `overrideAccess` to `false`, you can pass a user to use against the access control checks. |
+| `showHiddenFields` | Opt-in to receiving hidden fields. By default, they are hidden from returned documents in accordance to your config. |
+| `pagination`       | Set to false to return all documents and avoid querying for document counts. |
+| `context`          | [Context](/docs/hooks/context), which will then be passed to `context` and `req.context`, which can be read by hooks.

 This is because the configs themselves are not serializable and so they cannot be thread through to the client, i.e. the `DocumentInfoContext`. Instead, various properties of the config are passed instead, like `collectionSlug` and `globalSlug`.  You can use these to access a client-side config, if needed, through the `useConfig` hook (see next bullet).
