The same as https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11763 but also
for GraphQL. The previous fix was working only for the Local API and
REST API due to a different method for querying joins in GraphQL.
### What?
Previously if you used the typescriptSchema and `returned: false`, the
field would still be required anyways.
### Why?
We were adding fields to be required on the collection without comparing
the returned schema from typescriptSchema functions.
### How?
This changes the order of logic so that `requiredFieldNames` on the
collection is only after running and checking the field schema.
Continuation of #11867. When rendering custom fields nested within
arrays or blocks, such as the Lexical rich text editor which is treated
as a custom field, these fields will sometimes disappear when form state
requests are invoked sequentially. This is especially reproducible on
slow networks.
This is different from the previous PR in that this issue is caused by
adding _rows_ back-to-back, whereas the previous issue was caused when
adding a single row followed by a change to another field.
Here's a screen recording demonstrating the issue:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5ecfa9ec-b747-49ed-8618-df282e64519d
The problem is that `requiresRender` is never sent in the form state
request for row 2. This is because the [task
queue](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11579) processes tasks
within a single `useEffect`. This forces React to batch the results of
these tasks into a single rendering cycle. So if request 1 sets state
that request 2 relies on, request 2 will never use that state since
they'll execute within the same lifecycle.
Here's a play-by-play of the current behavior:
1. The "add row" event is dispatched
a. This sets `requiresRender: true` in form state
1. A form state request is sent with `requiresRender: true`
1. While that request is processing, another "add row" event is
dispatched
a. This sets `requiresRender: true` in form state
b. This adds a form state request into the queue
1. The initial form state request finishes
a. This sets `requiresRender: false` in form state
1. The next form state request that was queued up in 3b is sent with
`requiresRender: false`
a. THIS IS EXPECTED, BUT SHOULD ACTUALLY BE `true`!!
To fix this this, we need to ensure that the `requiresRender` property
is persisted into the second request instead of overridden. To do this,
we can add a new `serverPropsToIgnore` to form state which is read when
the processing results from the server. So if `requiresRender` exists in
`serverPropsToIgnore`, we do not merge it. This works because we
actually mutate form state in between requests. So request 2 can read
the results from request 1 without going through an additional rendering
cycle.
Here's a play-by-play of the fix:
1. The "add row" event is dispatched
a. This sets `requiresRender: true` in form state
b. This adds a task in the queue to mutate form state with
`requiresRender: true`
1. A form state request is sent with `requiresRender: true`
1. While that request is processing, another "add row" event is
dispatched
a. This sets `requiresRender: true` in form state AND
`serverPropsToIgnore: [ "requiresRender" ]`
c. This adds a form state request into the queue
1. The initial form state request finishes
a. This returns `requiresRender: false` from the form state endpoint BUT
IS IGNORED
1. The next form state request that was queued up in 3c is sent with
`requiresRender: true`

Previously, jobs were executed in FIFO order on MongoDB, and LIFO on
Postgres, with no way to configure this behavior.
This PR makes FIFO the default on both MongoDB and Postgres and
introduces the following new options to configure the processing order
globally or on a queue-by-queue basis:
- a `processingOrder` property to the jobs config
- a `processingOrder` argument to `payload.jobs.run()` to override
what's set in the jobs config
It also adds a new `sequential` option to `payload.jobs.run()`, which
can be useful for debugging.
This replaces usage of our `chainMethods` helper to dynamically chain
queries with [drizzle dynamic query
building](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/dynamic-query-building).
This is more type-safe, more readable and requires less code
This adds support for running multiple job queue tasks in parallel
within the same workflow while preventing conflicts. Previously, this
would have caused the following issues:
- Job log entries get lost - the final job log is incomplete, despite
all tasks having been executed
- Write conflicts in postgres, leading to unique constraint violation
errors
The solution involves handling job log data updates in a way that avoids
overwriting, and ensuring the final update reflects the latest job log
data. Each job log entry now initializes its own ID, so a given job log
entry’s ID remains the same across multiple, parallel task executions.
## Postgres
In Postgres, we need to enable transactions for the
`payload.db.updateJobs` operation; otherwise, two tasks updating the
same job in parallel can conflict. This happens because Postgres handles
array rows by deleting them all, then re-inserting (rather than
upserting). The rows are stored in a separate table, and the following
scenario can occur:
Op 1: deletes all job log rows
Op 2: deletes all job log rows
Op 1: inserts 200 job log rows
Op 2: insert the same 200 job log rows again => `error: “duplicate key
value violates unique constraint "payload_jobs_log_pkey”`
Because transactions were not used, the rows inserted by Op 1
immediately became visible to Op 2, causing the conflict. Enabling
transactions fixes this. In theory, it can still happen if Op 1 commits
before Op 2 starts inserting (due to the read committed isolation
level), but it should occur far less frequently.
Alongside this change, we should consider inserting the rows using an
upsert (update on conflict), which will get rid of this error
completely. That way, if the insertion of Op 1 is visible to Op 2, Op 2
will simply overwrite it, rather than erroring. Individual job entries
are immutable and job entries cannot be deleted, thus this shouldn't
corrupt any data.
## Mongo
In Mongo, the issue is addressed by ensuring that log row deletions
caused due to different log states in concurrent operations are not
merged back to the client job log, and by making sure the final update
includes all job logs.
There is no duplicate key error in Mongo because the array log resides
in the same document and duplicates are simply upserted. We cannot use
transactions in Mongo, as it appears to lock the document in a way that
prevents reliable parallel updates, leading to:
`MongoServerError: WriteConflict error: this operation conflicted with
another operation. Please retry your operation or multi-document
transaction`
You can access the database name from `sanitizedConfig.db.name`. But
currently, it' not possible to access the db name from the unsanitized
config.
Plugins only have access to the unsanitized config. This change allows
db adapters to return the db name early, which will allow plugins to
conditionally initialize db-specific functionality
### What
This PR improves the `getSafeRedirect` utility to improve security
around open redirect handling.
### How
- Normalizes and decodes the redirect path using `decodeURIComponent`
- Catches malformed encodings with a try/catch fallback
- Blocks open redirects
In 3.0, we made the decision to export all types from the main package
export (e.g. `payload/types` => `payload`). This improves type
discoverability by IDEs and simplifies importing types.
This PR does the same for our db adapters, which still have a separate
`/types` subpath export. While those are kept for
backwards-compatibility, we can remove them in 4.0.

### What?
### Why?
### How?
Fixes #
-->
### What?
This PR aims to deflake the `test/versions/e2e.spec.ts:925:5 › Versions
› Collections with draft validation › - with autosave - shows a prevent
leave alert when form is submitted but invalid` e2e test.
The issue seems to be that the `fill` call followed by a `page.reload`
sometimes conflicts with autosave which may cause the test to flake.
### Why?
To deflake this test in ci.
### How?
Adds a single `waitForAutoSaveToRunAndComplete` function call prior to
the last call to `page.reload`. In my testing, on my local machine,
adding the `waitForAutoSaveToRunAndComplete` function allows the test to
pass every time. Without this, the tests fails on my machine
consistently.
Synchronous file system operations such as `readFileSync` block the
event loop, whereas the asynchronous equivalents (like await
`fs.promises.readFile`) do not. This PR replaces certain synchronous fs
calls with their asynchronous counterparts in contexts where async
operations are already in use, improving performance by avoiding event
loop blocking.
Most of the synchronous calls were in our file upload code. Converting
them to async should theoretically free up the event loop and allow
more, other requests to run in parallel without delay
### What?
This PR aims to deflake the indexed fields e2e test in
`test/fields/collections/Indexed/e2e.spec.ts`.
The issue is that this test is setup in a way where sometimes two toasts
will present themselves in the ui. The second toast assertion will fail
with a strict mode violation as the toast locator will resolve to two
elements.
### Why?
To prevent this test from flaking in ci.
### How?
Adding a new `dismissAfterAssertion` flag to the `assertToastErrors`
helper function which dismisses the toasts. This way, the toasts will
not raise the aforementioned error as they will be dismissed from the
ui.
The logic is handled in a separate loop through such that the assertions
occur first. This is done so that dismissing a toast does not surface
errors due to the order of toasts being shown changing.
### What?
Fixed client config caching to properly update when switching languages
in the admin UI.
### Why?
Currently, switching languages doesn't fully update the UI because
client config stays cached with previous language translations.
### How?
Created a language-aware caching system that stores separate configs for
each language and only uses cached config when it matches the active
language.
Before:
```typescript
let cachedClientConfig: ClientConfig | null = global._payload_clientConfig
if (!cachedClientConfig) {
cachedClientConfig = global._payload_clientConfig = null
}
export const getClientConfig = cache(
(args: { config: SanitizedConfig; i18n: I18nClient; importMap: ImportMap }): ClientConfig => {
if (cachedClientConfig && !global._payload_doNotCacheClientConfig) {
return cachedClientConfig
}
// ... create new config ...
}
);
```
After:
```typescript
let cachedClientConfigs: Record<string, ClientConfig> = global._payload_localizedClientConfigs
if (!cachedClientConfigs) {
cachedClientConfigs = global._payload_localizedClientConfigs = {}
}
export const getClientConfig = cache(
(args: { config: SanitizedConfig; i18n: I18nClient; importMap: ImportMap }): ClientConfig => {
const { config, i18n, importMap } = args
const currentLocale = i18n.language
if (!global._payload_doNotCacheClientConfig && cachedClientConfigs[currentLocale]) {
return cachedClientConfigs[currentLocale]
}
// ... create new config with correct translations ...
}
);
```
Also added handling for cache clearing during HMR to ensure
compatibility with the existing system.
Fixes#11406

Replaces the queue pattern used within autosave with the `useQueues`
hook introduced in #11579. To do this, queued tasks now accept an
options object with callbacks which can be used to tie into events of
the process, such as before it begins to prevent it from running, and
after it has finished to perform side effects.
The `useQueues` hook now also maintains an array of queued tasks as
opposed to individual refs.
Lexical nested fields are currently not set-up to handle access control
on the client properly. Despite that, we were passing parent permissions
to `RenderFields`, which causes certain fields to not show up if the
document does not have `create` permission.
This PR comes with a bunch of improvements to our template generation
script that makes it safer and more reliable
- bumps all our templates
- Using `latest` as payload version in our templates has proven to be
unreliable. This updates the gen-templates script to pin all payload
packages to the latest version
- adds the missing `website` entry for our template variations, thus
ensuring its lockfile gets updated
- adds importmap generation to the gen-templates script
- adds new `script:gen-templates:build` script to verify that all
templates still build correctly
In the Cell component for a select field such as our `_status` fields it
will now add a class eg. `selected--published` for the selected option
so it can be easily targeted with CSS.

### What?
In the same vein as #11696, this PR optimizes how images are selected
for display in the document edit view. It ensures that only image files
are processed and selects the most appropriate size to minimize
unnecessary downloads and improve performance.
#### Previously:
- Non-image files were being processed unnecessarily, despite not
generating thumbnails.
- Images without a `thumbnailURL` defaulted to their original full size,
even when smaller, optimized versions were available.
#### Now:
- **Only images** are processed for thumbnails, avoiding redundant
requests for non-images.
- **The smallest available image within a target range** (`40px -
180px`) is prioritized for display.
- **If no images fit within this range**, the logic selects:
- The next smallest larger image (if available).
- The **original** image if it is smaller than the next available larger
size.
- The largest **smaller** image if no better fit exists.
### Why?
Prevents unnecessary downloads of non-image files, reduces bandwidth
usage by selecting more efficient image sizes and improves load times
and performance in the edit view.
### How?
- **Filters out non-image files** when determining which assets to
display.
- Uses the same algorithm as in #11696 but turns it into a reusable
function to be used in various areas around the codebase. Namely the
upload field hasOne and hasMany components.
Before (4.5mb transfer):
After (15.9kb transfer):
There are cases when a storage plugin is disabled during development and
enabled in production. This will result in import maps that differ
depending on if they're generated during development or production.
In a lot of cases, those import maps are generated during
development-only. During production, we just re-use what was generated
locally. This will cause missing import map entries for those plugins
that are disabled during development.
This PR ensures the import map entries are added regardless of the
enabled state of those plugins. This is necessary for our
generate-templates script to not omit the vercel blob storage import map
entry.
### What?
Fixes a few broken links in `docs/custom-components` and
`docs/rich-text`. Also made some custom component links lowercase.
### Why?
To direct end users to the correct location in the docs.
### How?
Changes to `docs/custom-components/custom-views.mdx`,
`docs/custom-components/list-view.mdx`, and
`docs/rich-text/custom-features.mdx`.
When selecting query presets from the list drawer, all query presets are
available for selection, even if unrelated to the underlying collection.
When selecting one of these presets, the list view will crash with
client-side exceptions because the columns and filters that are applied
are incompatible.
The fix is to the thread `filterOptions` through the query presets
drawer. This will ensure that only related collections are shown.
When rendering custom fields nested within arrays or blocks, such as the
Lexical rich text editor which is treated as a custom field, these
fields will sometimes disappear when form state requests are invoked
sequentially. This is especially reproducible on slow networks.
This is because form state invocations are placed into a [task
queue](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11579) which aborts
the currently running tasks when a new one arrives. By doing this, local
form state is never dispatched, and the second task in the queue becomes
stale.
The fix is to _not_ abort the currently running task. This will trigger
a complete rendering cycle, and when the second task is invoked, local
state will be up to date.
Fixes#11340, #11425, and #11824.
Continuation of #11489. This adds a new, optional `updateJobs` db
adapter method that reduces the amount of database calls for the jobs
queue.
## MongoDB
### Previous: running a set of 50 queued jobs
- 1x db.find (= 1x `Model.paginate`)
- 50x db.updateOne (= 50x `Model.findOneAndUpdate`)
### Now: running a set of 50 queued jobs
- 1x db.updateJobs (= 1x `Model.find` and 1x `Model.updateMany`)
**=> 51 db round trips before, 2 db round trips after**
### Previous: upon task completion
- 1x db.find (= 1x `Model.paginate`)
- 1x db.updateOne (= 1x `Model.findOneAndUpdate`)
### Now: upon task completion
- 1x db.updateJobs (= 1x `Model.findOneAndUpdate`)
**=> 2 db round trips before, 1 db round trip after**
## Drizzle (e.g. Postgres)
### running a set of 50 queued jobs
- 1x db.query[tablename].findMany
- 50x db.select

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

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

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

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

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

Fixes#10019. When bulk editing subfields, such as a field within a
group, changes are not persisted to the database. Not only this, but
nested fields with the same name as another selected field are
controlled by the same input. E.g. typing into one fields changes the
value of both.
The root problem is that field paths are incorrect.
When opening the bulk edit drawer, fields are flattened into options for
the field selector. This is so that fields in a tab, for example, aren't
hidden behind their tab when bulk editing. The problem is that
`RenderFields` is not set up to receive pre-determined field paths. It
attempts to build up its own field paths, but are never correct because
`getFieldPaths` receives the wrong arguments.
The fix is to just render the top-level fields directly, bypassing
`RenderFields` altogether.
Fields with subfields will still recurse through this function, but at
the top-level, fields can be sent directly to `RenderField` (singular)
since their paths have already been already formatted in the flattening
step.
### What
This PR updates the `login` flow by wrapping redirect routes with
`encodeURIComponent`. This ensures that special characters in URLs (such
as ?, &, #) are properly encoded, preventing potential issues with
navigation and redirection.
### What?
In the localization example, changing the data in the admin panel does
not update the public page.
### Why?
The afterChange hook revalidates the wrong path after page is changed.
### How?
The afterChange hook is revalidating "/[slug]" but it should in fact
revalidate "/[locale]/[slug]"
Fixes #
Updated the path to include the locale before the slug.
This PR updates the email validation regex to better handle use cases
with hyphens.
Changes:
- Disallows domains starting or ending with a hyphen
(`user@-example.com`, `user@example-.com`).
- Allows domains with consecutive hyphens inside (`user@ex--ample.com`).
- Allows multiple subdomains (`user@sub.domain.example.com`).
- Adds `int test` coverage for multiple domain use case scenarios.
If the `useAsTitle` property is defined referencing a richtext field,
the admin panel throws errors in several places.
I noticed this in the email builder plugin, where we're making the
subject field (which is the title) a single-paragraph richtext field
instead of a text field for technical reasons.
In this PR, for the lexical richtext case, I'm converting the first
child of the RootNode (usually a paragraph or heading) to plain text.
Additionally, I am verifying that if the resulting title is not of type
string, fallback to "untitled" so that this does not happen again in the
future (perhaps with slate, or with other fields).
### What?
Extends our dataloader to add a momiozed payload find function. This way
it will cache the query for the same find request using a cacheKey from
find operation args.
### Why?
This was needed internally for `filterOptions` that exist in an array or
other sitautions where you have the same exact query being made and
awaited many times.
### How?
- Added `find` to payloadDataLoader. Marked `@experimental` in case it
needs to change.
- Created a cache key from the args
- Validate filterOptions changed from `payload.find` to
`payloadDataLoader.find`
- Made `payloadDataLoader` no longer optional on `PayloadRequest`, since
other args are required which are created from createLocalReq (context
for example), I don't see a reason why dataLoader shouldn't be required
also.
Example usage:
```ts
const result = await req.payloadDataLoader.find({
collection,
req,
where,
})
```
### What?
- GraphQL was broken because of an error with the enum for the drafts
input which cannot be 'true'.
- Selecting Draft was not doing anything as it wasn't being passed
through to the find arguments.
### Why?
This was causing any graphql calls to error.
### How?
- Changed draft options to Yes/No instead of True/False
- Correctly pass the drafts arg to `draft`
Fixes #
### What?
The import-export preview UI component does not handle localized fields
and crash the UI when they are used. This fixes that issue.
### Why?
We were not properly handling the label translated object notation that
field.label can have.
### How?
Now we call `getTranslation` with the field label to handle language
keyed labels.
Fixes # https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11668
### What?
Export FieldAccessArgs type.
### Why?
Prevent projects from needing to recreate this type manually and keep it
in sync with changes in payload releases.
### How?
Exports a new type called FieldAccessArg that is then referenced in the
FieldAccess function argument.
This PR updates the email validation regex to enforce stricter rules.
- Disallows emails containing double quotes (e.g., `"user"@example.com`,
`user@"example.com"`, `"user@example.com"`).
- Rejects spaces anywhere in the email (e.g., `user @example.com`).
- Prevents consecutive dots in both local and domain parts (e.g.,
`user..name@example.com`, `user@example..com`).
- Allows standard formats like `user@example.com` and
`user.name+alias@example.co.uk`.

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

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

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

Before (4.7mb transfer):
After (129kb transfer):
Implements a select-like API into the form state endpoint. This follows
the same spec as the Select API on existing Payload operations, but
works on form state rather than at the db level. This means you can send
the `select` argument through the form state handler, and it will only
process and return the fields you've explicitly identified.
This is especially useful when you only need to generate a partial form
state, for example within the bulk edit form where you select only a
subset of fields to edit. There is no need to iterate all fields of the
schema, generate default values for each, and return them all through
the network. This will also simplify and reduce the amount of
client-side processing required, where we longer need to strip
unselected fields before submission.
### What
This PR ensures that `select` and `radio` field option labels properly
accept and render JSX elements.
### Why
Previously, JSX elements could be passed as option labels, but the type
definition for options only allowed `LabelFunction` or `StaticLabel`,
resulting in type errors. Additionally:
- JSX labels did not render correctly in the list view but now do.
- In the versions diff view, JSX labels were not supported since it only
accepts strings. To address this, we now fallback to the option `value`
when the label is a JSX element.
Sometimes I need to add some classes to the `picture` tag of Media
component. in this case I need to do this:
```
<Media
resource={content.image}
className="w-full h-full [&>picture]:w-full" // <<< follow this
imgClassName="w-full h-full object-cover"
/>
```
So I added an additional props `pictureClassName` for the picture tag.
Now I can do this:
```
<Media
resource={content.image}
className="w-full h-full"
pictureClassName="w-full h-full" // <<< follow this
imgClassName="w-full h-full object-cover"
/>
```
NOTE: I've encountered situations where I needed to add classes to the
`picture` tag, not just for `w-full h-full`. To handle this, I had to
update the Media component. I believe this would be a valuable
improvement to the Media component.
### What?
Adds a new property to collection / global config `forceSelect` which
can be used to ensure that some fields are always selected, regardless
of the `select` query.
### Why?
This can be beneficial for hooks and access control, for example imagine
you need the value of `data.slug` in your hook.
With the following query it would be `undefined`:
`?select[title]=true`
Now, to solve this you can specify
```
forceSelect: {
slug: true
}
```
### How?
Every operation now merges the incoming `select` with
`collectionConfig.forceSelect`.
Based on the current `packages/ui/src/providers/DocumentInfo/types.ts`.
- Removes properties like `versions`, `unpublishedVersions`,
`publishedDoc`, `getVersions` from the docs, which were listed in the
docs, but not in the type definition.
- Adds properties like `savedDocumentData`, `setCurrentEditor`,
`setDocFieldPreferences`, etc., which are in the type definition, but
which were missing in the docs.
- Fixes that the description for `getDocPermissions` said it retrieves
"user preferences", but should be about permissions.
### What?
Prevents the preventLeave dialog from showing if a clicked link is about
to open in a new tab.
### Why?
Currently, no external link can be clicked on the edit page if it was
modified, even if the link would not navigate the user away from that
page but open in a new tab instead.
### How?
We don't trigger the preventLeave dialog if
- the target of a clicked anchor is `_blank`
- the user pressed the command or ctrl key while clicking on a link
(which opens link in a new tab)
The task queue triggers an infinite render of form state. This is
because we return an object from the `useQueues` hook that is recreated
on every render. We then use the `queueTask` function as an unstable
dependency of the `useEffect` responsible for requesting new form state,
ultimately triggering an infinite rendering loop.
The fix is to stabilize the `queueTask` function within a `useCallback`.
Adds a test to prevent future regression.
Ensures all s3 sockets are cleaned up. Now passes through default
request handler options that `@smithy/node-http-handler` now handles
properly.
Fixes#6382
```ts
const defaultRequestHandlerOpts: NodeHttpHandlerOptions = {
httpAgent: {
keepAlive: true,
maxSockets: 100,
},
httpsAgent: {
keepAlive: true,
maxSockets: 100,
},
}
```
If you continue to have socket issues, you can customize any of the
options by setting `requestHandler` property on your s3 config. This
will take precedence if set.
```ts
requestHandler: {
httpAgent: {
maxSockets: 300,
keepAlive: true,
},
httpsAgent: {
maxSockets: 300,
keepAlive: true,
},
// Optional, only set these if you continue to see issues. Be wary of timeouts if you're dealing with large files.
// time limit (ms) for receiving response.
requestTimeout: 5_000,
// time limit (ms) for establishing connection.
connectionTimeout: 5_000,
}),
```

### What?
The error toast shown on field errors was _greatly_ improved recently
with much clearer, more easily consumable messages. This PR adjusts a
minor issue when the format of the error message is such that there are
no subsequent field errors present.
### Why?
To prevent showing an extra `li` when there are no more field errors.
### How?
Previously, the error msg array was being constructed like so:
```ts
const [intro, errorsString] = message.split(':')
const errors = (errorsString || '')
.split(',')
.map((error) => error.replaceAll(' > ', ' → ').trim())
if (errors.length === 0) {
return {
message: intro,
}
}
...
```
This works fine. However, if the initial message split makes
`errorsString` undefined, as is the case where there are no subsequent
field errors, the `(errorsString || '').split(',')` will always return
an array with a single `""` element in it, making the check for
`errors.length === 0` unreachable. This PR checks if `errorsString` is
false-y first before doing further processing instead.
Before:
After:
This PR fixes an issue where the Sharp `.resize()` function would round
down an auto-scaled dimension when `fastShrinkOnLoad` was enabled
(enabled by default).
This caused slight discrepancies in height calculations in certain edge
cases.
Be default (`fastShrinkOnLoad: true`), Sharp:
- Uses the built-in shrink-on-load feature for JPEG and WebP
- It is an optimization that prioritizes speed over precision when
resizing images
By setting `fastShrinkOnLoad: false`, we force Sharp to:
- Perform a more accurate resize operation instead of relying on quick
pre-shrink methods.
### Before / Context:
- Upload an image with original dimensions of 1500 × 735
- Define an `imageSize` of the following:
```
{
name: 'thumbnail',
width: 300,
},
```
#### Calculation:
`originalAspectRatio = 1500 / 735 ≈ 2.04081632653`
`resizeHeight = 300 / 2.04081632653`
`resizeHeight = 147`
However, Sharp's `.resize()` calculation would output:
`resizeHeight = 146`
This lead to an error of:
```
[17:05:13] ERROR: extract_area: bad extract area
err: {
"type": "Error",
"message": "extract_area: bad extract area",
"stack":
Error: extract_area: bad extract area
}
```
### After:
Sharp's `.resize()` calculation now correctly outputs:
`resizeHeight = 147`
### What?
Improves Swedish translations throughout.
- There were several places where the automatic translations didn't make
sense, particularily around localization where "locale" was incorrectly
referred to as "Lokal" instead of "Språk". "Crop" being translated to
"Skörd" was another hilarious one ("Skörd" means crop as in harvest 😊).
- Most success messages were overly formal in Swedish with
"framgångsrikt" being used in an awkward fashion. I've shortened them to
be more to the point.
- Some shorter strings had incorrect capitalization, such as "Nytt
Lösenord". Swedish doesn't use that kind of capitalization, so "Nytt
lösenord" is correct.
- Replaced "Manöverpanel" as the word for "Dashboard" with "Översikt"
which is less awkward.
- Normalized loading toasts throughout so they all use dots at the end
to signify an ongoing action such as "Laddar..".
- Several other small improvements to make things more natural.
The blocks e2e tests were flaky due to how we conditionally render
fields as they enter the viewport. This prevented Playwright from every
reaching the target element when running
`locator.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded()`. This is especially flaky on pages
with many fields because the page size would continually grow as it was
scrolled.
To fix this there are new `scrollEntirePage` and `waitForPageStability`
helpers. Together, these will ensure that all fields are rendered and
fully loaded before we start testing. An early attempt at this was made
via `page.mouse.wheel(0, 1750)`, but this is an arbitrary pixel value
that is error prone and is not future proof.
These tests were also flaky by an attempt to trigger a form state action
before it was ready to receive events. The fix here is to disable any
buttons while the form is initializing and let Playwright wait for an
interactive state.
allow disabling indentation for specific nodes via IndentFeature
Usage:
```ts
editor: lexicalEditor({
features: ({ defaultFeatures }) => [
...defaultFeatures,
IndentFeature({
// the array must contain the "type" property of registered indentable nodes
disabledNodes: ['paragraph', 'listitem'],
}),
],
}),
```
The nodes "paragraph", "heading", "listitem", "quote" remain indentable
by default, even without `IndentFeature` registered.
In a future PR we will probably add the option to disable TabNode.

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

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

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

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

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

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

### What?
This PR removes two links from a time where there was two distinct
live-preview examples. It also adjusts links for CORS and CSRF to a more
appropriate location in the docs.
### Why?
Now there's only the App Router example, so direct users there instead.
### How?
Changes to `docs/live-preview/client.mdx`
This PR updates the field `condition` function property to include a new
`path` argument.
The `path` arg provides the schema path of the field, including array
indices where applicable.
#### Changes:
- Added `path: (number | string)[]` in the Condition type.
- Updated relevant condition checks to ensure correct parameter usage.
When rendering views within a drawer outside of the edit view, i.e. from
the list view, it updates the underlying step nav to the collection of
the drawer. This is true for both document drawers and list drawers.
This is because the logic controlling this behavior relies on the
current edit depth, which is only incremented within the edit view
itself. Instead of doing this, we can conditionally run the setter
functions based the presence of a drawer slug.
An alternative to this would be to subscribe to the `drawerDepth`
context but this would be less efficient, as this requires an
unnecessary hook and subsequent rendering cycle.
Cleans up various Payload-generated configs, namely:
- Renames config entry files from `preferencesCollection.ts`,
`lockedDocumentsCollection.ts`, and `jobsCollection.ts` to `config.ts`
- Standardizes collection slugs for `payload-preferences`,
`payload-locked-documents`, and `payload-jobs` and reuses everywhere
- Renames camel-cased `payloadPreferences` directory to kebab case, i.e.
`payload-preferences`
Client uploads were always enabled because a wrong variable was used,
when passing `enabled` to `initClientUploads`,
`gcsStorageOptions.enabled` instead of `gcsStorageOptions.clientUploads`
To enable client uploads with GCS you also additionally need to
configure CORS on Google Cloud, therefore this change breaks existing
logic
### What?
This PR adds ability to define indexes on several fields for collections
(compound indexes).
Example:
```ts
{
indexes: [{ unique: true, fields: ['title', 'group.name'] }]
}
```
### Why?
This can be used to either speed up querying/sorting by 2 or more fields
at the same time or to ensure uniqueness between several fields.
### How?
Implements this logic in database adapters. Additionally, adds a utility
`getFieldByPath`.
By default, Payload only attempts to locate the import map file in the following locations:
- `src/app/(payload)/{adminroute}/importMap.js`
- `app/(payload)/{adminroute}/importMap.js`
This is fine for most projects, but sometimes you may want to place the import map - or the Payload admin directory - somewhere else.
This PR adds a new `importMapFile` property that allows you to override this heuristic and specify your own import map path.
Adds new plugin-import-export initial version.
Allows for direct download and creation of downloadable collection data
stored to a json or csv uses the access control of the user creating the

If `experimental.fullySpecified` is set to `true` in the next config, the Payload admin panel fails to compile, throwing the following error:
```ts
Failed to compile.
../../node_modules/.pnpm/@payloadcms+next@3.25.0-canary.46647b4_@types+react@18.3.1_graphql@16.10.0_monaco-editor@0.40_w3ro7ziou6gzev7zbe3qqrwaqe/node_modules/@payloadcms/next/dist/views/Version/RenderFieldsToDiff/fields/Select/DiffViewer/index.js
Attempted import error: 'DiffMethod' is not exported from 'react-diff-viewer-continued' (imported as 'DiffMethod').
```
The issue stems from incorrect import statements in `react-diff-viewer-continued` 4.0.4. This was fixed in `react-diff-viewer-continued` 4.0.5.
This PR also enables `fullySpecified` in our test suites, to catch these issues going forward.
Adding usage of `ScribeMD/docker-cache` to cache the mongodb image.
We utilize the
[supercharge/mongodb-github-action](https://github.com/supercharge/mongodb-github-action)
for pulling and starting our mongo image. This would at times cause `You
have reached your unauthenticated pull rate limit` errors because of how
many jobs our CI spins up at one time.
Deep‐merging the collection config defaults during sanitization causes all collection fields to end up with different object references. This is not only slow, but can also lead to unpredictable behavior: mutations made before collection sanitization are reflected in the field config, while mutations made afterward, using the same object reference, are not reflected in the collection’s field config.
Specifically, the following happened:
1. A Block was defined in the module scope.
2. It was then added to both a collection’s blocks field and the config.blocks property.
3. Rich text sanitization promises for config.blocks were collected.
4. The collection config was sanitized.
5. The config.blocks sanitization promises were awaited.
6. Rich text fields were sanitized in config.blocks, but ended up not being sanitized in the collection config referencing the same block, because the object reference held by the promise callback no longer matched the collection config’s object reference. The collection config block did not create its own rich text sanitization promise, as `_sanitized: true` was set on the block during the earlier config.blocks sanitization, which skipped it.
Our config defaults pattern was brittle in general. It’s easy to misuse object spreading or to mutate the config defaults later when you intended only to mutate the payload or collection config. Our current approach was vulnerable to this because it retained some object references from the config defaults.
This PR introduces reliable merge functions that are faster and ensure no object references are shared with defaults that reside in the module scope.
### What?
Supersedes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11490.
Refactors imports of `formatAdminURL` to import from `payload/shared`
instead of `@payloadcms/ui/shared`. The ui package now imports and
re-exports the function to prevent this from being a breaking change.
### Why?
This makes it easier for other packages/plugins to consume the
`formatAdminURL` function instead of needing to implement their own or
rely on the ui package for the utility.
When uploading file via client side upload we invalidate it then on the
server side with re-uploading. This works fine with most adapters since
they just replace the old file under the same key. UploadThing works
differently and generates a new key every time.
Example of the issue:
<img width="611" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9c01b52a-d159-4f32-9f66-3b5fbadab7b4"
/>
Now, we clear the old file before doing re-upload.
Previously, collections with similar names (e.g., `uploads` and
`uploads-poly`) both appeared active when viewing either collection.
This was due to `pathname.startsWith(href)`, which caused partial
matches.
This update refines the `isActive` logic to prevent partial matches.
Previously, AVIF images were not converted to other file types as
expected, despite `upload.formatOptions` specifying a different file
type.
The issue was due to `canResizeImage` not recognizing `'image/avif',`
causing `fileSupportsResize` to return `false` and preventing the image
from undergoing format conversion.
This fix updates `canResizeImage` to include `'image/avif'`, ensuring
that AVIF images are processed correctly and converted to a different
file type when specified in `formatOptions`.
Fixes#10694Fixes#9985
### What
Clarifies that `sharp` must be specified in payload config for image
resizing & cropping to work. Also adds link to the configuration page
for further information.
### Why
It is not immediately clear from this single documentation page alone.
While it says that the feature relies on sharp, it does not say that it
must be added to config. Most people won't probably run into this since
they're probably going to use `create-payload-app`, which configures
sharp by default. But those who use custom config (like me) may be left
wondering why this feature does not work.

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

### What?
There were a couple issues with the implementation within the example
when using postgres.
- `ensureUniqueUsername` tenant was being extracted incorrectly, should
not constrain query unless it was present
- `ensureUniqueSlug` was querying by NaN when tenant was not present on
data or originalDoc
- `users` read access was not correctly extracting the tenant id in the
correct type depending on DB
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11484
The `payload-admin-bar` now supports React 19 as a result of
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-admin-bar/pull/13. This will
suppress the React 19 warnings on install within the website templates
and various examples that rely on this package.
This update improves the `Environment Info` section in the issue
template by asking users to provide exact version numbers instead of
"latest."
This ensures that bug reports remain accurate and useful over time.
### What?
CheckListFeature is noted in the documentation. However, the package
uses ChecklistFeature
Rather than changing the package, this would be better.
This PR adds a new `limit` property to `payload.db.updateMany`. This functionality is required for [migrating our job system to use faster, direct db adapter calls](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11489)
- Ensures website templates build without eslint errors
- Upgrades all templates from Next.js 15.1.5 to 15.2.0
- Bumps all payload versions, updates all lockfiles to reference latest payload versions. The blank template was still installing 3.17.1 and the website template was installing 3.18.0
- Simplifies defaultLexical.ts
Our previous `RichTextWithoutBlocks` import alias was confusing - this PR changes it to `ConvertRichText`. This should make it clear that that's the imported RichText component that performs the editor state => JSX conversion
Our `no-imports-from-self` eslint rule was supposed to cache the package.json name to ensure it doesn't try to find and read the package.json for every single import statement.
Turns out that cache was never used. Credits to @etrepum for [finding this issue](https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/7272#discussion_r1976666227)
This PR exports a new `editorConfigFactory` that provides multiple standardized ways to retrieve the editor configuration needed for the Lexical editor.
## Why this is needed
Getting the editor config is required for converting the lexical editor state into/from different formats, as it's needed to create a headless editor. While we're moving away from requiring headless editor instantiation for common format conversions, some conversion types and other use cases still require it.
Currently, retrieving the editor config is cumbersome - you either need an existing field to extract it from or the payload config to create it from scratch, with multiple approaches for each method.
## What this PR does
The `editorConfigFactory` consolidates all possible ways to retrieve the editor config into a single factory with clear methods:
```ts
editorConfigFactory.default()
editorConfigFactory.fromField()
editorConfigFactory.fromUnsanitizedField()
editorConfigFactory.fromFeatures()
editorConfigFactory.fromEditor()
```
This results in less code, simpler implementation, and improved developer experience. The PR also adds documentation for all retrieval methods.
The "where" builder maintains its own duplicative state for conditions.
This is problematic when an outside force needs to control the
conditions in some way, but the "where" builder will not receive those
updates.
While it is a requirement of the "where" builder to transform the
"where" query into "and" / "or" format for rendering, it does so in a
way that causes it to become out of sync with the query provider. This
is because we first initialize state from context, then for every change
to conditions, report those updates to contexts—but not the other way
around.
To fix this, we need to completely remove state from the "where" builder
and solely rely on the query context as a single source of truth. This
will allow it to receive automatic updates from query provider without
needing to sync both local state and context simultaneously. Now, we
only ever need to send updates to the query provider and let the
top-down rendering cycle propagate those changes everywhere.
Previously, lexical blocks initialized a new `Form` component that rendered as `<form>` in the DOM. This may lead to React errors, as forms nested within forms is not valid HTML.
This PR changes them to render as `<div>` in the DOM instead.
When the join field is used, Payload now automatically adds an index on
the target relationship field.
For example:
```
{
name: 'relatedPosts',
type: 'join',
collection: "posts",
on: 'category',
},
{
name: 'category',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: "categories",
},
```
Here, `index: true` implicitly added to the `category` relationship
field during sanitization to improve querying performance.
Migrates the `db-mongodb` package to use `strict: true` and
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess: true` TSConfig properties.
This greatly improves code quality and prevents some runtime errors or
gives better error messages.
When bulk editing an auth-enabled collection such as users, a
client-side exception is thrown. This is because we're trying to access
the `disableBulkEdit` property on `undefined`. This is due to hidden,
auth-specific fields like `salt` and `hash` lacking an admin config.
No test is explicitly needed for this as `"strictNullChecks": true` will
throw an error at compile time, once enabled.
### What?
Fixes client uploads when storage collection config has the `prefix`
property configured. Previously, it failed with "Object key was not
found".
### Why?
This is expected to work.
### How?
The client upload handler now receives to its props `prefix`. Then it
threads it to the server-side `staticHandler` through
`clientUploadContext` and then to `getFilePrefix`, which checks for
`clientUploadContext.prefix` and returns if there is.
Previously, `staticHandler` tried to load the file without including
prefix consideration.
This changes only these adapters:
* S3
* Azure
* GCS
With the Vercel Blob adapter, `prefix` works correctly.
This fixes an issue where the active collection nav item was
non-clickable inside documents. Now, it remains clickable when viewing a
document, allowing users to return to the list view from the nav items
in the sidebar.
The active state indicator still appears in both cases.
The `req.url` property at the page level was not reflective of the
actual URL on localhost. This was because we were passing an
incompatible `url` override into `createLocalReq` (lacking protocol).
This would silently fail to construct the URL object, ultimately losing
the top-level domain on `req.url` as well as the port on `req.origin`
(see #11454).
Closes#11448.
This adds new `payload.jobs.cancel` and `payload.jobs.cancelByID` methods that allow you to cancel already-running jobs, or prevent queued jobs from running.
While it's not possible to cancel a function mid-execution, this will stop job execution the next time the job makes a request to the db, which happens after every task.
### What?
The `locale selector` in the version comparison view shows all locales
on first load. It does not accomodate the `filterAvailableLocales`
option and shows locales which should be filtered.
### How?
Pass the initial locales through the `filterAvailableLocales` function.
Closes#11408
#### Testing
Use test suite `localization` and the `localized-drafts` collection.
Test added to `test/localization/e2e`.
The `req.origin` property on the `PayloadRequest` object does not
include the port when running on localhost, a requirement of the [HTML
Living Standard](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#origin). This was because
we were initializing the url with a fallback of `http://localhost` (no
port). When constructed via `new URL()`, the port is unable to be
extracted. This is fixed by using the `host` property off the headers
object, if it exists, which includes the port.
Partial fix for #11448.
This PR significantly improves performance when navigating through the admin panel by reducing the number of times `initReq` is called. Previously, `initReq`—which handles expensive tasks like initializing Payload and running access control—was called **three times** for a single page load (for the root layout, the root page, and the notFound page).
We initially tried to use React Cache to ensure `initReq` only ran once per request. However, because React Cache performs a shallow object reference check on function arguments, the configuration object we passed (`configPromise`) and the `overrides` object never maintained the same reference, causing the cache to miss.
### What’s Changed
* **New `getInitReqContainer` Helper**
We introduced a helper that provides a stable object reference throughout the entire request. This allows React to properly cache the output, ensuring `initReq` doesn’t get triggered multiple times by mistake.
* **Splitting `initReq` into Two Functions**
The `initReq` logic was split into:
* **`initPartialReq`:** Runs only **once** per request, handling tasks that do not depend on page-level data (e.g., calling `.auth`, which performs a DB request).
* **`initReq`:** Runs **twice** (once for Layout+NotFound page and once for main page), handling tasks, most notably access control, that rely on page-level data such as locale or query parameters. The NotFound page will share the same req as the layout page, as it's not localized, and its access control wouldn't need to access page query / url / locale, just like the layout.
* **Remove duplicative logic**
* Previously, a lot of logic was run in **both** `initReq` **and** the respective page / layout. This was completely unnecessary, as `initReq` was already running that logic. This PR returns the calculated variables from `initReq`, so they don't have to be duplicatively calculated again.
### Performance Gains
* Previously:
* `.auth` call ran **3 times**
* Access control ran **3 times**
* Now:
* `.auth` call runs **1 time**
* Access control runs **2 times**
This change yields a noticeable performance improvement by cutting down on redundant work.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9767
We allow failing a job queue task by returning `{ state: 'failed' }` from the task, instead of throwing an error. However, previously, this threw an error when trying to update the task in the database. Additionally, it was not possible to customize the error message.
This PR fixes that by letting you return `errorMessage` alongside `{ state: 'failed' }`, and by ensuring the error is transformed into proper json before saving it to the `error` column.
Ensures that even if you pass `enabled: false` to the storage adapter
options, e.g:
```ts
s3Storage({
enabled: false,
collections: {
[mediaSlug]: true,
},
bucket: process.env.S3_BUCKET,
config: {
credentials: {
accessKeyId: process.env.S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
secretAccessKey: process.env.S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
},
},
})
```
the client handler component is added to the import map. This prevents
errors when you use the adapter only on production, but you don't
regenerate the import map before running the build
This PR updates the reproduction guide to reference
`create-payload-app@latest -t blank` instead of `@beta`, ensuring users

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

This PR introduces a new `useFormBackgroundProcessing` hook and a corresponding `setBackgroundProcessing` function in the `useForm` hook.
Unlike `useFormProcessing` / `setProcessing`, which mark the entire form as read-only, this new approach only disables the Publish button during autosaving, keeping form fields editable for a better user experience.
I named it `backgroundProcessing` because it should run behind the scenes without disrupting the user. You could argue that it is a bit more generic than something like `isAutosaving`, but it signals intent: Background = do not disrupt the user.
### What?
For the join field query adds ability to specify `count: true`, example:
```ts
const result = await payload.find({
joins: {
'group.relatedPosts': {
sort: '-title',
count: true,
},
},
collection: "categories",
})
result.group?.relatedPosts?.totalDocs // available
```
### Why?
Can be useful to implement full pagination / show total related
documents count in the UI.
### How?
Implements the logic in database adapters. In MongoDB it's additional
`$lookup` that has `$count` in the pipeline. In SQL, it's additional
subquery with `COUNT(*)`. Preserves the current behavior by default,
since counting introduces overhead.
Additionally, fixes a typescript generation error for join fields.
Before, `docs` and `hasNextPage` were marked as nullable, which is not
true, these fields cannot be `null`.
Additionally, fixes threading of `joinQuery` in
`transform/read/traverseFields` for group / tab fields recursive calls.
Added a new Reserved Field Names section to the migration guide.
Clarified that certain field names (`__v`, `salt`, `hash`, `file`, etc.)
are reserved for internal use and will be sanitized from the config if
used.
Included additional reserved names specific to `MongoDB`, `auth`-enabled
collections, and `upload`-enabled collections.
Added a note recommending against using field names with an underscore
(`_`) prefix, as they are reserved for internal columns and may cause
conflicts in `SQL` and other contexts.
Fixes#11159
This reverts commit 69c0d09 in #11390.
In order to future proof column prefs, it probably is best to continue
to use the current shape. This change was intended to ensure that as
little transformation to URL params was made as possible for #11387, but
we will likely transform them after all.
This will ensure that we can add support for additional properties over
time, as needed. For example, if we hypothetically wanted to add a
custom `label` or similar feature to columns prefs, it would make more
sense to use explicit properties to identity `accessor` and `active`.
For example:
```ts
[
{
accessor: "title",
active: true,
label: 'Custom Label' // hypothetical
}
]
```
This bumps next.js to 15.2.0 in our monorepo, as well as all @types/react and @types/react-dom versions. Additionally, it removes the obsolete `peerDependencies` property from our root package.json.
This PR also fixes 2 bugs introduced by Next.js 15.2.0. This highlights why running our test suite against the latest Next.js, to make sure Payload is compatible, version is important.
## 1. handleWhereChange running endlessly
Upgrading to Next.js 15.2.0 caused `handleWhereChange` to be continuously called by a `useEffect` when the list view filters were opened, leading to a React error - I did not investigate why upgrading the Next.js version caused that, but this PR fixes it by making use of the more predictable `useEffectEvent`.
## 2. Custom Block and Array label React key errors
Upgrading to Next.js 15.2.0 caused react key errors when rendering custom block and array row labels on the server. This has been fixed by rendering those with a key
## 3. Table React key errors
When rendering a `Table`, a React key error is thrown since Next.js 15.2.0
This PR improves existing JSX converter docs and adds 2 new sections:
- **converting internal links** - addresses why a `"found internal link, but internalDocToHref is not provided"` error is thrown, and how to get around it
- **Overriding default JSX Converters**
Lexical server features are able to add components to the import map through the `componentImports` property. As of now, the client feature did not have access to those. This is usually not necessary, as those import map entries are used internally to render custom components server-side, e.g. when a request to the form state endpoint is made.
However, in some cases, these import map entries need to be accessed by the client feature (see "Why" section below).
This PR ensures that keyed `componentImports` entries are made available to the client feature via the new `featureClientImportMap` property.
## Why?
This is a prerequisite of the lexical [wrapper blocks PR](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9289), where wrapper block custom components need to be made to the ClientFeature. The ClientFeature is where the wrapper block node is registered - in order to generate the wrapper block node, we need access to the component
Removes all unnecessary `page.waitForURL` methods within e2e tests.
These are unneeded when following a `page.goto` call because the
subsequent page load is already being awaited.
It is only a requirement when:
- Clicking a link and expecting navigation
- Expecting a redirect after a route change
- Waiting for a change in search params
Previously, behavior with custom IDs and `select` query was incorrect.
By default, the `id` field is guaranteed to be selected, even if it
doesn't exist in the `select` query, this wasn't true for custom IDs.
Previously, `updateOne` was using `buildFindManyArgs` and `findFirst` just to retrieve the ID of the document to update, which is a huge function that's not necessary to run just to get the document ID.
This PR refactors it to use a simple `db.select` query to retrieve the ID
This PR fixes an issue where bulk upload attempts to generate thumbnails
for non-image files, causing errors on the page.
The fix ensures that thumbnail generation is skipped for non-image
files, preventing unnecessary errors.
Fixes#10428
Previously, `hasNextPage` was working incorrectly with polymorphic joins
(that have an array of `collection`) in MongoDB.
This PR fixes it and adds extra assertions to the polymorphic joins
test.

Transforms how column prefs are stored in the database. This change
reduces the complexity of the `columns` property by removing the
unnecessary `accessor` and `active` keys.
This change is necessary in order to [maintain column state in the
URL](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11387), where the state
itself needs to be as concise as possible. Does so in a non-breaking
way, where the old column shape is transformed as needed.
Here's an example:
Before:
```ts
[
{
accessor: "title",
active: true
}
]
```
After:
```ts
[
{
title: true
}
]
```
Since codeowner approvals are not currently required, the codeowners
file is only serving to add reviewers to PRs.
Removing the codeowners file for now as this is not desired. Can be
re-introduced at a later date if required approvers are implemented.
### What?
Unable to update json fields externally. For example, calling `setValue`
on a json field would not be reflected in the admin panel UI.
### Why?
JSON fields use the monaco editor to manage state internally, so
programmatically updating the value in state does not change the
internal value.
### How?
Set a ref when the user updates the value and then unset the ref after
the change is complete.
Inside the hook that watches `value`, if the value changed and the
change came from the system (i.e. a programmatic change) refresh the
editor by adjusting its key prop. If the change was made by the user,
there is no need to refresh the editor.

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

https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11359#issuecomment-2678213414
The link element by using startTransitionRoute and manually calling
router.push would technically cause links to be clicked twice, by not
preventing default browser behaviour.
This caused a problem on clicking /create links as it hit the route
twice. Added a test making sure Create new doesn't lead to abnormally
increased document counts
Changes:
- Added `e.preventDefault()` in our Link element
- Added `preventDefault` as an optional prop to this element so that
people can handle it on their own if needed via a custom `onClick`
Exports the `useTenantSelection` hook from the multi-tenant plugin, this
way other users can import and use the hook along with it's methods.
Can be imported:
```ts
import { useTenantSelection } from '@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant/client'
```
The context returned:
```ts
type ContextType = {
/**
* Array of options to select from
*/
options: OptionObject[]
/**
* The currently selected tenant ID
*/
selectedTenantID: number | string | undefined
/**
* Prevents a refresh when the tenant is changed

setPreventRefreshOnChange: React.Dispatch<React.SetStateAction<boolean>>

setTenant: (args: { id: number | string | undefined; refresh?: boolean }) => void

Small performance improvement for types generation and anywhere else
`configToJSONSchema` can be used.
We did a deep copy of the whole sanitized entity config, which can be
expensive. Now, to do the needed mutation of `flattenedFields`, we just
create a new reference of `flattenedFields` for that.
When rendering a list drawer, you can pass a custom `onSelect` callback
to execute when the user clicks on the linked cell within the table. The
underlying handler, however, only passes the `docID` and
`collectionSlug` args through the callback, rather than the document
itself. This makes it impossible to perform side-effects that require
the data of the row that was selected.
Instances of this callback were also largely untyped.
Needed for #11330.
Bulk edit controls are currently displayed within the search bar of the
list view. This doesn't make sense from a UX perspective, as the current
selection is displayed somewhere else entirely. These controls also take
up a lot of visual real estate which is beginning to get overused
especially after the introduction of "list menu items" in #11230, and
the potential introduction of "saved filters" controls in #11330.
Now, they are rendered contextually _alongside_ the selection count. To
make room for these new controls, they are displayed in plain text and
the entity labels have been removed from the selection count.
### What?
Updated `docker-compose.yml` to use `Postgres` by default, with
`MongoDB` commented out in the templates that are by default using the
postgres adapter.
Fixes#11322
`payload.find` queries can be made faster by specifying `limit: 1` and `pagination: false` when only the first document is needed. This PR applies those options to various queries to improve performance.
Previously, the `bin` configuration wasn't working at all.
Possibly because in an ESM environment this cannot work, because
`import` always returns an object with a default export under the
`module` key.
```ts
const script: BinScript = await import(pathToFileURL(userBinScript.scriptPath).toString())
await script(config)
```
Now, this works, but you must define a `script` export from your file.
Attached an integration test that asserts that it actually works. Added
documentation on how to use it, as previously it was missing.
This can be also helpful for plugins.
### Documentation
Using the `bin` configuration property, you can inject your own scripts
to `npx payload`.
Example for `pnpm payload seed`:
Step 1: create `seed.ts` file in the same folder with
`payload.config.ts` with:
```ts
import type { SanitizedConfig } from 'payload'
import payload from 'payload'
// Script must define a "script" function export that accepts the sanitized config
export const script = async (config: SanitizedConfig) => {
await payload.init({ config })
await payload.create({ collection: 'pages', data: { title: 'my title' } })
payload.logger.info('Succesffully seeded!')
process.exit(0)
}
```
Step 2: add the `seed` script to `bin`:
```ts
export default buildConfig({
bin: [
{
scriptPath: path.resolve(dirname, 'seed.ts'),
key: 'seed',
},
],
})
```
Now you can run the script using:
```sh
pnpm payload seed
```
Improves performance and optimizes memory usage for mongodb adapter by
cutting down copying of results via `JSON.parse(JSON.stringify())`.
Instead, `transform` does necessary transformations (`ObjectID` ->
`string,` `Date` -> `string`) without any copying
Previously, we were calling `getNavPrefs` (a payload.find call) three times for every single page load.
This PR:
1. Ensures that `getNavPrefs` is called only once per page load, reducing two unnecessary `payload.find` calls every time a page is loaded or navigated to.
2. Adds `pagination: false` to the `payload.find` call, making it more efficient and improving performance.
## How?
We were using React's cache to ensure that navigation preferences (`getNavPrefs`) were fetched only once per request. However, this wasn't working as expected because the first argument of `getNavPrefs` was an object. Each time it was called, a new object reference was passed, preventing React from caching it properly.
To fix this, this PR ensures that only primitive values are used as arguments for caching, following best practices and making the cache function work as intended.
Just like https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11269, we stop passing through `req` to db operations in `checkDocumentLockStatus`.
After extensive testing, this seems to get rid of all transaction errors that occurred when I was testing autosave against a remote mongo DB.
We keep the `req` for postgres, as it mysteriously breaks in CI - this cannot be reproduced locally
## getPreferences function caching
Our `getPreferences` function used in the ui package is now wrapped in react cache, to minimize the amount of times it runs on a single request. This mimics the behavior of our other `getPreferences` function in the next package.
## getPreferences incorrect behavior
The `getPreferences` function in the next package was passing through the incorrect user slug. This would not have been noticeable in projects with just one users collection, but might break in projects with multiple users collections.
## getPreferences performance optimization
This PR adds `pagination: false` to the getPreferences payload.find() call, which will speed up the query.
## upsertPreferences transaction errors
Due to the potential of preference upsert operations running in parallel (e.g. when switching locales), this PR disables transactions in the preferences creation / update calls. This fixes the transaction errors reported in https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11310

Which is quite noisy as we understand why this error happens (and it
might be intentional when you load production DB to local and don't have

Now, the logging here in case of `ENOENT` is simplified to this:

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

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

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

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

### What?
Previously, in postgres query like:
```ts
const result = await payload.find({
collection: 'blocks',
where: { 'blocks.director.name': { equals: 'Test Director' } },
})
```
where `blocks` is a blocks field, `director` is a relationship field and
`name` is a text field inside `directors`, failed with:
### Why?
The generated query before was a bit wrong.
Before:
```sql
select distinct
"blocks"."id",
"blocks"."created_at",
"blocks"."created_at"
from
"blocks"
left join "directors" "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968" on "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."director_id"
left join "blocks_blocks_some" on "blocks"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."_parent_id"
where
"a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."name" = 'Test Director'
order by
"blocks"."created_at" desc
limit
10
```
Notice `left join directors` _before_ join of `blocks_blocks_some`.
`blocks_blocks_some` doesn't exist yet, this PR changes so now we
generate
```sql
select distinct
"blocks"."id",
"blocks"."created_at",
"blocks"."created_at"
from
"blocks"
left join "blocks_blocks_some" on "blocks"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."_parent_id"
left join "directors" "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968" on "a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."id" = "blocks_blocks_some"."director_id"
where
"a5ad426a_eda4_4067_af7e_5b294d7f0968"."name" = 'Test Director'
order by
"blocks"."created_at" desc
limit
10
```

This PR fixes a few weird behaviours when `validate: true` is set on drafts:
- when autosave is on and you submit an invalid form it would get stuck in an infinite loop
- PreventLeave would not trigger for submitted but invalid forms leading to potential data loss
Changes:
- Adds e2e tests for the above scenarios
- Adds a new `isValid` flag on the `Form` context provider to signal globally if the form is in a valid or invalid state
- Components like Autosave will manage this internally since it manages its own submission flow as well
- Adds PreventLeave to Autosave too for when form is invalid meaning data hasn't been actually saved so we want to prevent the user accidentally losing data by reloading or closing the page
The following tests have been added
When reusing the SelectInput component from the UI package, if you set
value to `''` it will continue to display the previously selected value
instead of clearing out the field as expected.
The ReactSelect component doesn't behave in this way and instead will
clear out the field.
This fix addresses this difference by resetting `valueToRender` inside
the SelectInput to null.
This PR optimizes permissions calculation for block references, by
calculating them only once per block reference config, instead of once
every single time the blocks are referenced.
This will lead to significant performance improvements in Payload
Configs with a lot of duplicative block references, as permissions are
calculated every time you navigate from page to page.

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

Previously, we forgot to add `depth: 0` to our `findGlobal` call in `getEntityPolicies`. This PR adds `depth: 0` which will be faster.
It also cleans up the `getEntityPolicies` function in general by adding missing types, JSDocs and improving code readability.
This was part of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11236 and has been extracted into this separate PR, to make it easier to review
### What?
Two new configuration properties added for upload enabled collections.
- *hideFileInputOnCreate* - Set to `true` to prevent the admin UI from
showing file inputs during document creation, useful for programmatic
file generation.
- *hideRemoveFile* - Set to `true` to prevent the admin UI having a way
to remove an existing file while editing.
### Why?
When using file uploads that get created programmatically in
`beforeOperation` hooks or files created using `jobs`, or when
`filesRequiredOnCreate` is false, you may want to use these new flags to
prevent users from interacting with these controls.
### How?
The new properties only impact the admin UI components to dial in the UX
for various use cases.
Screenshot showing that the upload controls are not available on create:
Screenshot showing hideRemoveFile has removed the ability to remove the
existing file:
Prerequisite for https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10795
The `localized` properly was not stripped out of referenced block fields, if any parent was localized. For normal fields, this is done in sanitizeConfig. As the same referenced block config can be used in both a localized and non-localized config, we are not able to strip it out inside sanitizeConfig by modifying the block config.
Instead, this PR had to bring back tedious logic to handle it everywhere the `field.localized` property is accessed. For backwards-compatibility, we need to keep the existing sanitizeConfig logic. In 4.0, we should remove it to benefit from better test coverage of runtime field.localized handling - for now, this is done for our test suite using the `PAYLOAD_DO_NOT_SANITIZE_LOCALIZED_PROPERTY` flag.
This PR ensures, that collections that don't have `auth: true` don't
mount authentication related endpoints like `/me`, the same for uploads.
Additionally, moves upload-related endpoints to `uploads/endpoints/*`.
Adds a dedicated "Custom Components" section to the docs.
As users become familiar with building custom components, not all areas
that support customization are well documented. Not only this, but the
current pattern does not allow for deep elaboration on these concepts
without their pages growing to an unmanageable size. Custom components
in general is a large enough topic to merit a standalone section with
subpages. This change will make navigation much more intuitive, help
keep page size down, and provide room to document every single available
custom component with snippets to show exactly how they are typed, etc.
This is a substantial change to the docs, here is the overview:
- The "Admin > Customizing Components" doc is now located at "Custom
Components > overview"
- The "Admin > Views" doc is now located at "Custom Components > Custom
Views"
- There is a new "Custom Components > Edit View" doc
- There is a new "Custom Components > List View" doc
- The information about root components within the "Admin > Customizing
Components" doc has been moved to a new "Custom Components > Root
Components" doc
- The information about custom providers within the "Admin > Customizing
Components" doc has been moved to a new "Custom Components > Custom
Providers" doc
Similar to the goals of #10743, #10742, and #10741.
Fixes#10872 and initial scaffolding for #10353.
Dependent on #11126.
This change will require the following redirects to be set up:
- `/docs/admin/hooks` → `/docs/admin/react-hooks`
- `/docs/admin/components` → `/docs/custom-components/overview`
- `/docs/admin/views` → `/docs/custom-components/views`
It is currently very difficult to build custom edit and list views or
inject custom components into these views because these views and
components are not explicitly typed. Instances of these components were
not fully type safe as well, i.e. when rendering them via
`RenderServerComponent`, there was little to no type-checking in most
cases.
There is now a 1:1 type match for all views and view components and they
now receive type-checking at render time.
The following types have been newly added and/or improved:
List View:
- `ListViewClientProps`
- `ListViewServerProps`
- `BeforeListClientProps`
- `BeforeListServerProps`
- `BeforeListTableClientProps`
- `BeforeListTableServerProps`
- `AfterListClientProps`
- `AfterListServerProps`
- `AfterListTableClientProps`
- `AfterListTableServerProps`
- `ListViewSlotSharedClientProps`
Document View:
- `DocumentViewClientProps`
- `DocumentViewServerProps`
- `SaveButtonClientProps`
- `SaveButtonServerProps`
- `SaveDraftButtonClientProps`
- `SaveDraftButtonServerProps`
- `PublishButtonClientProps`
- `PublishButtonServerProps`
- `PreviewButtonClientProps`
- `PreviewButtonServerProps`
Root View:
- `AdminViewClientProps`
- `AdminViewServerProps`
General:
- `ViewDescriptionClientProps`
- `ViewDescriptionServerProps`
A few other changes were made in a non-breaking way:
- `Column` is now exported from `payload`

`afterNavLinks`. Those will come in a future PR.
Related: #10987.
The `Media` component has an optional property `resource` so we can skip
that property. As in payload `required: false` types are generated like
`media?: Media | string | null`, it also makes sense to allow `null` as
a `resource` value.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11200
The fix, added in https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11096
wasn't sufficient enough. It did handle the case when the same query
path / table was joined twice and caused incorrect `totalDocs`, but it
didn't handle the case when `JOIN` returns more than 1 rows, which 2
added new assertions here check.
Now, we use `COUNT(*)` only if we don't have any joined tables. If we
do, instead of using `SELECT (COUNT DISTINCT id)` which as described in
the previous PR is _very slow_ for large tables, we use the following
query:
```sql
SELECT COUNT(1) OVER() as count -- window function, executes for each row only once
FROM users
LEFT JOIN -- ... here additional rows are added
WHERE -- ...
GROUP BY users.id -- this ensures we're counting only users without additional rows from joins.
LIMIT 1 -- Since COUNT(1) OVER() executes and resolves before doing LIMIT, we can safely apply LIMIT 1.
```
Bulk-many components are always using the plural format in their title,
even if only one document has been selected.
This fix checks the selection count and if its greater than 1 it will
show the plural format otherwise it will show the singular format.
Lexical checks commands by reference equality. This means that even if you re-define those commands in your own codebase using the same command `type` string, they will be treated as different commands.
If you wanted to dispatch the block creation command in your own codebase (e.g. from a different lexical feature, or any component within the editor), this will not be possible right now. See https://discord.com/channels/967097582721572934/1339557113898340352/1339557113898340352

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

This PR fixes an issue where padding around the `DocumentHeader`
component disappears at the `mid-break` viewport size.
The issue was caused by .doc-header applying padding-left: 0 and
padding-right: 0, which overrode the intended padding from the parent
Gutter component in certain scenarios.
### What?
This PR fixes an issue where the `join` field table was not respecting
the locale selected in the admin ui localizer.
This also introduces an e2e test to the existing suite to catch this
issue.
### Why?
To properly render `join` field table data according to chosen and
configured locales.

Incorrect default value on exported `tenantsArrayField` field. Should
have been `tenant` but was using `tenants`. This affected the
multi-tenant example which uses a custom tenants array field.
You would not notice this issue unless you were using:
```ts
tenantsArrayField: {
includeDefaultField: false,
}
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11125
### What?
Assuming you have a hook in your collection that is looking for certain
conditions to be met related to the join field. The way you would
prevent it is to throw a `new ValidationError()` with errors containing
the path of the field. Previously, the error message for the field would
not show in the admin UI at all.
### Why?
Users need to be able to see any custom error messages for joins field
in the UI so they can address the issue.
### How?
Adds an error class and display the FieldError in the Join field in the
UI component.
### What?
This PR removes a pair unnecessary calls to `schema.index` against the
timestamp fields. The issue is when a user sets `indexSortableFields` as
this is what will ultimately pass the predicate which then creates
duplicate indexes.
### Why?
These calls are redundant as `index` is [already
passed](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/db-mongodb/src/models/buildSchema.ts#L69)
to the underlying fields base schema options in the process of
formatting and will already be indexed.
These warnings were surfaced after the bump to mongoose to version 8.9.5
as [in 8.9.3 mongoose began throwing these warnings to indicate
duplicative
indexes](https://github.com/Automattic/mongoose/releases/tag/8.9.3).
### How?
By removing these calls and, as a result, silencing the warnings thrown
by mongoose.
If you have multiple blocks that are used in multiple places, this can quickly blow up the size of your Payload Config. This will incur a performance hit, as more data is
1. sent to the client (=> bloated `ClientConfig` and large initial html) and
2. processed on the server (permissions are calculated every single time you navigate to a page - this iterates through all blocks you have defined, even if they're duplicative)
This can be optimized by defining your block **once** in your Payload Config, and just referencing the block slug whenever it's used, instead of passing the entire block config. To do this, the block can be defined in the `blocks` array of the Payload Config. The slug can then be passed to the `blockReferences` array in the Blocks Field - the `blocks` array has to be empty for compatibility reasons.
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { lexicalEditor, BlocksFeature } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
// Payload Config
const config = buildConfig({
// Define the block once
blocks: [
{
slug: 'TextBlock',
fields: [
{
name: 'text',
type: 'text',
},
],
},
],
collections: [
{
slug: 'collection1',
fields: [
{
name: 'content',
type: 'blocks',
// Reference the block by slug
blockReferences: ['TextBlock'],
blocks: [], // Required to be empty, for compatibility reasons
},
],
},
{
slug: 'collection2',
fields: [
{
name: 'editor',
type: 'richText',
editor: lexicalEditor({
BlocksFeature({
// Same reference can be reused anywhere, even in the lexical editor, without incurred performance hit
blocks: ['TextBlock'],
})
})
},
],
},
],
})
```
## v4.0 Plans
In 4.0, we will remove the `blockReferences` property, and allow string block references to be passed directly to the blocks `property`. Essentially, we'd remove the `blocks` property and rename `blockReferences` to `blocks`.
The reason we opted to a new property in this PR is to avoid breaking changes. Allowing strings to be passed to the `blocks` property will prevent plugins that iterate through fields / blocks from compiling.
## PR Changes
- Testing: This PR introduces a plugin that automatically converts blocks to block references. This is done in the fields__blocks test suite, to run our existing test suite using block references.
- Block References support: Most changes are similar. Everywhere we iterate through blocks, we have to now do the following:
1. Check if `field.blockReferences` is provided. If so, only iterate through that.
2. Check if the block is an object (= actual block), or string
3. If it's a string, pull the actual block from the Payload Config or from `payload.blocks`.
The exception is config sanitization and block type generations. This PR optimizes them so that each block is only handled once, instead of every time the block is referenced.
## Benchmarks
60 Block fields, each block field having the same 600 Blocks.

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

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

Refines the animation curve used in the new progress bar for route
transitions. Uses an exponential acceleration and decay so that the
indicator progresses quickly at the onset, then gradually decelerates at
it approaches completion. Also caps the progress at ~90%.
Introduced in #9275.
On fast networks where page transitions are quick, such as local dev in
most cases, the progress bar should not render. This leads to a constant
flashing of the progress bar at the top of the screen and does not
provide any value.
The fix is to add a delay to the initial rendering of the progress bar,
and only show if the transition takes longer than _n_ milliseconds. This
value can be adjusted as needed, but right now is set to 150ms.
Introduced in #9275.
The `@monaco-editor/react` package now includes React 19 in its peer
dependencies thanks to
https://github.com/suren-atoyan/monaco-react/pull/651. This package was
also incorrectly listed in `payload` as a regular dependency, but since
it's only used for type imports, it should be listed a dev dependency
instead.
### What?
Added a quick example to showcase how to add a converter for inlineBlocks.
### Why?
This is not easy to figure out in the current version. As per [Discord discussion](https://discord.com/channels/967097582721572934/1338624577990823997)
### How?
Added a very basic 3 lines example to keep the file simple.
Deprecates all cases where `Link` could be sent as a prop. This was a
relic from the past, where we attempted to make our UI library
router-agnostic. This was a pipe dream and created more problems than it
solved, for example the logout button was missing this prop, causing it
to render an anchor tag and perform a hard navigation (caught in #9275).
Does so in a non-breaking way, where these props are now optional and
simply unused, as opposed to removing them outright.
Due to nature of server-side rendering, navigation within the admin
panel can lead to slow page response times. This can lead to the feeling
of an unresponsive app after clicking a link, for example, where the
page remains in a stale state while the server is processing. This is
especially noticeable on slow networks when navigating to data heavy or
process intensive pages.
To alleviate the bad UX that this causes, the user needs immediate
visual indication that _something_ is taking place. This PR renders a
progress bar in the admin panel which is immediately displayed when a
user clicks a link, and incrementally grows in size until the new route
has loaded in.
Inspired by https://github.com/vercel/react-transition-progress.

To tie into the progress bar, you'll need to use Payload's new `Link`
component instead of the one provided by Next.js:
```diff
- import { Link } from 'next/link'
+ import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
```
Here's an example:
```tsx
import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const MyComponent = () => {
return (
<Link href="/somewhere">
Go Somewhere
</Link>
)
}
```
In order to trigger route transitions for a direct router event such as
`router.push`, you'll need to wrap your function calls with the
`startRouteTransition` method provided by the `useRouteTransition` hook.
```ts
'use client'
import React, { useCallback } from 'react'
import { useTransition } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import { useRouter } from 'next/navigation'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
const router = useRouter()
const { startRouteTransition } = useRouteTransition()
const redirectSomewhere = useCallback(() => {
startRouteTransition(() => router.push('/somewhere'))
}, [startRouteTransition, router])
// ...
}
```
In the future [Next.js might provide native support for
this](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/41934#discussioncomment-12077414),
and if it does, this implementation can likely be simplified.
Of course there are other ways of achieving this, such as with
[Suspense](https://react.dev/reference/react/Suspense), but they all
come with a different set of caveats. For example with Suspense, you
must provide a fallback component. This means that the user might be
able to immediately navigate to the new page, which is good, but they'd
be presented with a skeleton UI while the other parts of the page stream
in. Not necessarily an improvement to UX as there would be multiple
loading states with this approach.
There are other problems with using Suspense as well. Our default
template, for example, contains the app header and sidebar which are not
rendered within the root layout. This means that they need to stream in
every single time. On fast networks, this would also lead to a
noticeable "blink" unless there is some mechanism by which we can detect
and defer the fallback from ever rendering in such cases. Might still be
worth exploring in the future though.

### What?
The migration CLI help says `migration:fresh` is available to use - this
doesn't exist, the command should be `migrate:fresh`.
Closes#10965 & #10967
### What?
Implement the
[typescript-strict-plugin](https://github.com/allegro/typescript-strict-plugin)
plugin in the payload (core) package.
### Why?
1. One strategy for incremental migration is to enable strictness rules
in tsconfig, fix some errors, and push them without committing the
changes to tsconfig.json. However, this is not feasible for a package as
large as Payload that has over 1000 typescript errors. Until the work is
done, new contributions would undo the work being done.
2. Even if no migration work is done after this PR, this change already
improves the strictness of the package. 89 of the 311 files within the
package already satisfy strict mode. This PR only adds a comment
`@ts-strict-ignore` to files that had at least one compilation error.
This way, the propagation of errors in those files is stopped.
3. New files created in the package are strict by default (this was the
main improvement in version 2 of `typescript-strict-plugin`).
I recommend starting the migration with this package because it is the
one that almost all the others depend on. Once we finish this package,
we can repeat the same strategy on another one, or use the strategy I
mentioned in point 1 if the package is small.
### Note
If you don't see errors in the IDE when you uncomment `//
@ts-strict-ignore`, try restarting the typescript server or VSCode
### How to contribute to the migration ❤️
1. Remove `// @ts-strict-ignore` comments from 1 or more files
2. Fix the pending errors (they should appear in your IDE's intellisense
or when running `cd packages/payload` + `pnpm build:types`
3. Submit your PR!
Important: You don't need to fix everything at once! Furthermore, I
recommend breaking this down into very small PRs to trace potential
issues later if there are any. So if you have 5 minutes, tackle a small
file—every bit counts! 🤗
### What?
Add a `div` wrapper to `table` tag in `TableFeature`
### Why?
This allows for adding horizontal scrolling to the table. We use table
in our blog, however, on mobile, the content is wider than the screen
width, and causes a horizontal scroll of all the content. I attached a
video to show. You can see it by visiting the page on mobile
https://magichour.ai/blog/10-best-ai-video-generatorshttps://github.com/user-attachments/assets/55778765-697e-426d-ac8a-1b0913adac13
Adding this container div allow me to target the div with a style
```css
.lexical-table-container {
overflow-x: scroll;
}
```
### How?
I tested this change by manually editing the HTML in our blog to include
the `div` with the overflow style, and it fixes the issue.
Also, verified just adding the `div` did not change anything related to
the rendered output.
This PR adds a new `siblingFields` argument to field hooks. This allows
us to dramatically simplify the `lexicalHTML` field, which previously
had to use a complex `findFieldPathAndSiblingFields` function that
deeply traverses the entire `CollectionConfig` just to find the sibling
fields.
This will hopefully allow pnpm to reliably install the correct lexical version, as lexical is now solely part of our `dependencies`. Currently, pnpm completely disregards lexical version bumps until the user deletes both the lockfile and their `node_modules` folder.
The downside of this is that pnpm will no longer throw a warning if payload is installed in a project with a mismatching lexical version. However, noone read that warning anyways, and our runtime dependency checker is more reliable.
One step closer to being able to remove `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` in
`packages/richtext-lexical/tsconfig.json`.
I'm introducing UploadData_P4 which is a more precise version of
UploadData. I'm doing it as a different type because there's a chance
it'll be a breaking change for some users.
UploadData is used in many places, but I'm currently replacing it only
in
`packages/richtext-lexical/src/exports/react/components/RichText/converter/converters/upload.tsx`,
because in the other files it's too rooted to other types like
UploadNode.
Elaborate how one is supposed to change the admin panel's language
because it is not initially clear or trivial to someone new and going
through the docs from the start.

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

### What?
This PR adds a table to the [Payload-wide Upload
Options](https://payloadcms.com/docs/upload/overview#payload-wide-upload-options)
section of the docs.
### Why?
To give users more insight into the customization options provided
out-of-the-box with uploads. Previously, these options were not visible
on the docs, forcing users to inspect source code to see how they can
customize their global upload settings. It wasn't clear, for example,
that a `fileSize` limit would not produce a 413 in a response by
default, but would truncate the file contents instead.
### How?
Changes to `docs/upload/overview.mdx`.
This PR extends timezone support to scheduled publish UI and collection,
the timezone will be stored on the `input` JSON instead of the
`waitUntil` date field so that we avoid needing a schema migration for
SQL databases.
If a timezone is selected then the displayed date in the table will be
formatted for that timezone.
Timezones remain optional here as they can be deselected in which case
the date will behave as normal, rendering and formatting to the user's
local timezone.
For the backend logic that can be left untouched since the underlying
date values are stored in UTC the job runners will always handle this
relative time by default.
Todo:
- [x] add e2e to this drawer too to ensure that dates are rendered as
expected

This was caused by using `COUNT(*)` aggregation instead of
`COUNT(DISTINCT table.id)`. However, we want to use `COUNT(*)` because
`COUNT(DISTINCT table.id)` is slow on large tables. Now we fallback to
`COUNT(DISTINCT table.id)` only when `COUNT(*)` cannot work properly.
Example of a query that leads to incorrect `totalDocs`:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'directors',
limit: 10,
where: {
or: [
{
movies: {
equals: movie2.id,
},
},
{
movies: {
equals: movie1.id,
},
},
{
movies: {
equals: movie1.id,
},
},
],
},
})
```
### What?
Initial values should be set from the server when `acceptValues` is
true.
### Why?
This is needed since we take the values from the server after a
successful form submission.
### How?
Add `initialValue` into `serverPropsToAccept` when `acceptValues` is
true.

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

[solution](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6382#issuecomment-2325468104)
provided by @denolfe in that issue only delayed the reappearance of the
problem somewhat, but did not resolve it.
### Why?
As far as I understand, in the `staticHandler` of the plugin, when
getting items from storage, and they are currently cached, the cached
results are immediately returned without handling the stream. As per
[this](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js-v3/blob/main/supplemental-docs/CLIENTS.md#nodejs-requesthandler)
entry in the aws-sdk docs, if the streaming response is not read, or
manually destroyed, a socket might not properly close.
### How?
Before returning the cached items, manually destroy the streaming
response to make certain the socket is being properly closed.
Additionally, add an error check to also consume/destroy the streaming
response in case an error occurs, to not leave orphaned sockets.
Fixes#6382
Adds support for timezone selection on date fields.
### Summary
New `admin.timezones` config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
// ...
timezones: {
supportedTimezones: ({ defaultTimezones }) => [
...defaultTimezones,
{ label: '(GMT-6) Monterrey, Nuevo Leon', value: 'America/Monterrey' },
],
defaultTimezone: 'America/Monterrey',
},
}
}
```
New `timezone` property on date fields:
```ts
{
type: 'date',
name: 'date',
timezone: true,
}
```
### Configuration
All date fields now accept `timezone: true` to enable this feature,
which will inject a new field into the configuration using the date
field's name to construct the name for the timezone column. So
`publishingDate` will have `publishingDate_tz` as an accompanying
column. This new field is inserted during config sanitisation.
Dates continue to be stored in UTC, this will help maintain dates
without needing a migration and it makes it easier for data to be
manipulated as needed. Mongodb also has a restriction around storing
dates only as UTC.
All timezones are stored by their IANA names so it's compatible with
browser APIs. There is a newly generated type for `SupportedTimezones`
which is reused across fields.
We handle timezone calculations via a new package `@date-fns/tz` which
we will be using in the future for handling timezone aware scheduled
publishing/unpublishing and more.
### UI
Dark mode
Light mode
We now properly allow relative live preview URLs which is handy if
you're deploying on a platform like Vercel and do not know what the
preview domain is going to end up being at build time.
This PR also removes some problematic code in the website template which
hard-codes the protocol to `https://` in production even if you're
running locally.
Fixes#11070
Adds documentation for the `usePayloadAPI` hook to the React Hooks
documentation.
The new section provides details on how the hook works, its parameters,
return values, and example usage.
**Changes:**
- Added `usePayloadAPI` documentation to the React Hooks page.
- Explained its purpose, arguments, and return values.
- Included an example demonstrating how to fetch data and update request
parameters dynamically.
Fixes: #10969
### What
Before, richText docs were showing a feature name spelt as
`BlockQuoteFeature`.
### How?
However, the accurate spelling of the feature is `BlockquoteFeature`.
If an error is thrown during the payload init process, it gets ignored and an unhelpful, meaningless
` ⨯ OverwriteModelError: Cannot overwrite ___ model once compiled.`
error is thrown instead. The actual error that caused this will never be logged. This PR fixes this and ensures the actual error is logged.
## Why did this happen?
If an error is thrown during the init process, it is caught and handled by the `src/utilities/routeError.ts` - this helper properly logs the error using pino.
The problem is that pino did not exist, as payload did not finish initializing - it errored during it. So, it tries to initialize payload again before logging the error... which will fail again. If payload failed initializing the first time, it will fail the second time. => No error is logged.
This PR ensures the error is logged using `console.error()` if the originating error was thrown during the payload init process, instead of attempting to initialize it again and again
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11055
Functions passed to array field, block field or block `labels` were not properly handled in the client config, causing those functions to be sent to the client. This leads to a "Functions cannot be passed directly to Client Component" error
This PR exposes the `ClientConfig` as an argument to the lexical `ClientFeature`. This is a requirement for https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10905, as we need to get the ClientBlocks from the `clientConfig.blocksMap` if they are strings.
## Example
```tsx
export const BlocksFeatureClient = createClientFeature(
({ config, featureClientSchemaMap, props, schemaPath }) => { // <= config is the new argument
// Return ClientFeature
})
```
When filtering the list view, removing the final condition from the
query closes the "where" builder entirely. This forces the user to
re-open the filter controls and begin adding conditions from the start.
This PR fixes 2 eslint config issues that prevented it from running in our test dir
- spec files were ignored by the root eslint config. This should have only ignored spec files within our packages, as they are ignored by the respective package tsconfigs
- defining the payload plugin crashed eslint in our test dir, as it was already defined in the root eslint config it was inheriting
The "select decoratorNodes" test was flaky, as it often selected the relationship block node with a relationship to "payload.jpg", instead of the upload node for "payload.jpg", depending on which node loaded first.
This PR ensures it waits for all blocks to be loaded, and updates the selector to specifically target the upload node
Previously, data created by other tests was also leaking into unrelated tests, causing them to fail. The new reset-db-between-tests logic added by this PR fixes this.
Additionally, this increases playwright timeouts for CI, and adds a specific timeout override for opening a drawer, as it was incredibly slow in CI
### What?
Adds new option `admin.components.listControlsMenu` to allow custom
components to be injected after the existing list controls in the
collection list view.
### Why?
Needed to facilitate import/export plugin.
#### Preview & Testing
Use `pnpm dev admin` to see example component and see test added to
`test/admin/e2e/list-view`.

When filtering the list view using conditions on a relationship field,
clearing the value from the field would leave it in the query despite
being removed from the component.
Adds the ability to filter what locales should be available per request.
This means that you can determine what locales are visible in the
localizer selection menu at the top of the admin panel. You could do
this per user, or implement a function that scopes these to tenants and
more.
Here is an example function that would scope certain locales to tenants:
**`payload.config.ts`**
```ts
// ... rest of payload config
localization: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: ['en', 'es'],
filterAvailableLocales: async ({ req, locales }) => {
if (getTenantFromCookie(req.headers, 'text')) {
try {
const fullTenant = await req.payload.findByID({
id: getTenantFromCookie(req.headers, 'text') as string,
collection: 'tenants',
})
if (fullTenant && fullTenant.supportedLocales?.length) {
return locales.filter((locale) => {
return fullTenant.supportedLocales?.includes(locale.code as 'en' | 'es')
})
}
} catch (_) {
// do nothing
}
}
return locales
},
}
```
The filter above assumes you have a field on your tenants collection like so:
```ts
{
name: 'supportedLocales',
type: 'select',
hasMany: true,
options: [
{
label: 'English',
value: 'en',
},
{
label: 'Spanish',
value: 'es',
},
],
}
```
Previously, data for globals was inconsistent across database adapters.
In Postgres, globals didn't store correct `createdAt`, `updatedAt`
fields and the `updateGlobal` lacked the `globalType` field. This PR
solves that without introducing schema changes.
Adds a new `addListFilter` e2e helper. This will help to standardize
this common functionality across all tests that require filtering list
tables and help reduce the overall lines of code within each test file.
In https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9917 we automatically added `admin.description` as JSDocs to our generated types.
If a function was passed as a description, this could have created unnecessary noise in the generated types, as the output of the description function may differ depending on where and when it's executed.
Example:
```ts
description: () => {
return `Current date: ${new Date().toString()}`
}
```
This PR disabled evaluating description functions for JSDocs generation
When using the filter controls in the list view on a relationship field,
the select options would clear after clicking outside of the component
then never repopulate. This caused the component to remain in an
unusable state, where no options would appear unless the filter is
completely removed and re-added. The reason for this is that the
`react-select` component fires an `onInputChange` event on blur, and the
handler that is subscribed to this event was unknowingly clearing the
options.
This PR also renames the various filter components, i.e.
`RelationshipField` -> `RelationshipFilter`. This improves semantics and
dedupes their names from the actual field components.
This bug was first introduced in this PR: #10553
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10940
This PR does the following:
- adds a `useDocumentForm` hook to access the document Form. Useful if
you are within a sub-Form
- ensure the `data` property passed to field conditions, read access
control, validation and filterOptions is always the top-level document
data. Previously, for fields within lexical blocks/links/upload, this
incorrectly was the lexical block-level data.
- adds a `blockData` property to hooks, field conditions,
read/update/create field access control, validation and filterOptions
for all fields. This allows you to access the data of the nearest parent
block, which is especially useful for lexical sub-fields. Users that
were previously depending on the incorrect behavior of the `data`
property in order to access the data of the lexical block can now switch
to the new `blockData` property
The `useIgnoredEffect` hook is useful in firing an effect only when a _subset_ of dependencies change, despite subscribing to many dependencies. But the previous implementation of `useIgnoredEffect` had a few problems:
- The effect did not receive the updated values of `ignoredDeps` - thus, `useIgnoredEffect` pretty much worked the same way as using `useEffect` and omitting said dependencies from the dependency array. This caused the `ignoredDeps` values to be stale.
- It compared objects by value instead of reference, which is slower and behaves differently than `useEffect` itself.
- Edge cases where the effect does not run even though the dependencies have changed. E.g. if an `ignoredDep` has value `null` and a `dep` changes its value from _something_ to `null`, the effect incorrectly does **not** run, as the current logic detects that said value is part of `ignoredDeps` => no `dep` actually changed.
This PR replaces the `useIgnoredEffect` hook with a new pattern which to combine `useEffect` with a new `useEffectEvent` hook as described here: https://react.dev/learn/separating-events-from-effects#extracting-non-reactive-logic-out-of-effects. While this is not available in React 19 stable, there is a polyfill available that's already used in several big projects (e.g. react-spectrum and bluesky).
When navigating from the list view, with no tenant selected, the
document would load and set the hidden tenant field to the first tenant
option.
This was caused by incorrect logic inside the TenantField useEffect that
sets the value on the field upon load.
### What?
Using the versions drafts feature and scheduling publish jobs, the UI
does not allow you to open the schedule publish drawer when the document
has been published already.
### Why?
Because of this you cannot schedule unpublish, unless as a user you
modify a form field as a workaround before clicking the publish submenu.
### How?
This change extends the Button props to include subMenuDisableOverride
allowing the schedule publish submenu to still be used on even when the
form is not modified.
Before:
With changes:
In https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10319, the `cacheTags`
property was added to the image config. This achieves the goal as
described, however, there are still other places where this issue
occurs, which should be handled in the same way. This PR aims to apply
it to those instances.
### What?
This updates the UX of `TextFields` with `hasMany: true` by:
- Removing the dropdown menu and its indicator
- Removing the ClearIndicator
- Making text items directly editable
### Why?
- The dropdown didn’t enhance usability.
- The ClearIndicator removed all values at once with no way to undo,
risking accidental data loss. Backspace still allows quick and
intentional clearing.
- Previously, text items could only be removed and re-added, but not
edited inline. Allowing inline editing improves the editing experience.
### How?
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/02e8cc26-7faf-4444-baa1-39ce2b4547fa
The `fields-relationship` test suite is disorganized to the point of
being unusable. This makes it very difficult to digest at a high level
and add new tests.
This PR cleans it up in the following ways:
- Moves collection configs to their own standalone files
- Moves the seed function to its own file
- Consolidates collection slugs in their own file
- Uses generated types instead of defining them statically
- Wraps the `filterOptions` e2e tests within a describe block
Related, there are three distinct test suites where we manage
relationships: `relationships`, `fields-relationship`, and `fields >
relationships`. In the future we ought to consolidate at least two of
these. IMO the `fields > relationship` suite should remain in place for
general _component level_ UI tests for the field itself, whereas the
other suite could run the integration tests and test the more complex UI
patterns that exist outside of the field component.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11002
`buildVersionFields` was adding `null` version fields to the version fields array. When RenderVersionFieldsToDiff tried to render those, it threw an error.
This PR ensures no `null` fields are added, as `RenderVersionFieldsToDiff` can't process them. That way, those fields are properly skipped, which is the intent of `modifiedOnly`
Our new Lexical -> JSX converter is great, but right now it can only be
used in environments that support CSS importing / bundling.
It was only that way because of a single import file which can be
removed and inlined, therefore, improving the versatility of the JSX
converter and making it more usable in a wider variety of runtimes.

If you had a published document but then created a new draft it would
delete the search doc, this PR adds an additional find to check if an
existing published doc exists before deleting the search doc.
Also adds a few jsdocs to plugin config
### What
1. List view not working when clearing tenant selection (you would see a
NaN error)
2. Tenant selector would reset to the first option when loading a
document
### Why
1. Using parseFloat on the _ALL_ selection option
2. A was mismatch in ID types was causing the selector to never find a
matching option, thus resetting it to the first option
### How
1. Check if cookie isNumber before parsing
2. Do not cast select option values to string anymore

You can currently extend Payload's type generation if you provide
additional JSON schema definitions yourself.
But, Payload has helpful functions like `fieldsToJSONSchema` which would
be nice to easily re-use.
The only issue is that the `fieldsToJSONSchema` requires arguments which
are difficult to access from the context of plugins, etc. They should
really be provided at runtime to the `config.typescript.schema`
functions.
This PR does exactly that. Adds more args to the `schema` extension
point to make utility functions easier to re-use.
The snippet for generating a dynamic, fully qualified live preview url
was wrong. It was indicating there were two arguments passed to that
function, when in fact there is only one.
### What?
When using `throw new APIResponse("Custom error message", 500, null,
true)` the error message is being replaced with the standard "Something
went wrong" message.
### Why?
We are not checking if the 4th argument (`isPublic`) is false before
masquerading the error message.
### How?
Adds a check for `!err.isPublic` before adjusting the outgoing message.
### What?
This PR adds tests for custom list view components to the existing suite
in `admin/e2e/list-view/`. Custom components are already tested in the
document-level counterpart, and should be tested here as well.
### Why?
Previously, there were no tests for these list view components.
Refactors, features, or changes that impact the importMap, default list
view, etc., could affect how these components get rendered. It's safer
to have tests in place to catch this as custom list view components, in
general, are used quite often.
### How?
This PR adds 5 simple tests that check for the rendering of the
following list view components:
- `BeforeList`
- `BeforeListTable`
- `UI Field Cell`
- `AfterList`
- `AfterListTable`
Fixes#10878. The Search Plugin displays a link within the search
results collection that points to the underlying document that is
related to that result. The href used, however, was not accounting for
any `basePath` provided to the `next.config.js`, leading to a 404 if
using a custom base path. The fix is to use the `Link` component from
`next/link` instead of an anchor tag directly. This will automatically
inject the the base path into the href before rendering it.
This PR also brings back the `CopyToClipboard` component. This makes it
easy for the user to copy the href instead of navigating to it.

There were a number of areas within the Search Plugin where typings
could have been improved, namely:
- The `customProps` sent to the `ReindexButton`. This now uses the
`satisfies` keyword to ensure type strictness.
- The `collectionLabels` prop sent to the `ReindexButtonClient`
component. This is now standardized behind a new
`ResolvedCollectionLabels` type to closely reflect `CollectionLabels`.
This was also converted from unnecessarily invoking a function to being
a basic object.
- The `locale` type sent through `SyncDocArgs`. This now uses
`Locale['code']` from Payload.
`JSON.parse(JSON.stringify().replace())` is easy to make mistakes with and since we have TypeScript data objects already for the data we're seeding it's pretty easy to just factor these as functions, making their dependencies explicit.
Continuation of #10632. The `apiBasePath` property in the Search Plugin
config is unnecessary. This plugin reads directly from the Payload
config for this property. Exposing it to the plugin's config was likely
a mistake during sanitization before passing it through to the remaining
files. This property was added to resolve the types, but as result,
exposed it to the config unnecessarily. This PR marks this property with
the deprecated flag to prevent breaking changes.
Previously, the lexical link drawer did not display any fields if the
`create` permission was false, even though the `update` permission was
true.
The issue was a faulty permission check in `RenderFields` that did not
check the top-level permission operation keys for truthiness. It only
checked if the `permissions` variable itself was `true`, or if the
sub-fields had `create` / `update` permissions set to `true`.
This fixes#10631.
Originally the api basepath for the reindex button is resolved during
plugin initialization. Looks like this happens before payload overrides
the config with the `basePath `from the next config.
I've changed it so that it uses the `useConfig` hook, and manually
tested that it works.
## What
Refactored the explanation of complexity limits in the
preventing-abuse.mdx documentation to correct grammar and improve
clarity.
## Why
- Grammar fix: The original sentence omitted the preposition "to" ("way
specify" → "way to specify").
- Readability: The long, compound sentence was difficult to parse at a
glance.
- Concept separation: Merging two ideas (defining limits and explaining
scoring) confused the workflow.
## How
- Added the missing "to" to ensure grammatical correctness.
- Split the sentence into two parts:
1. Introduces the purpose of complexity limits.
2. Explains how complexity scores enforce these limits.
- Preserved technical accuracy while simplifying the flow.

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

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

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

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

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

### What?
This PR fixes many links in the docs as well as a few formatting and
grammar issues.
### Why?
To properly link users to the correct destination in the docs and
present well-formatted docs.
### How?
Changes to a few files in `docs/`
### What?
When hitting the form-state endpoint, previousValue was undefined.
### Why?
It was not being passed through.
### How?
Sets previousValue as the initial value of the field.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10826
Field validations can be expensive, especially custom validations that
are async or highly complex. This can lead to slow form state response
times when generating form state for many such fields. Ideally, we only
run validations on fields whose values have changed. This is not
possible, however, because field validation functions might reference
_other_ field values with their args, and there is no good way of
detecting exactly which fields should run in this case. The next best
thing here is to only run validations _after the form has been
submitted_, and then every `onChange` event thereafter until a
successful submit has taken place. This is an elegant solution because
we currently don't _render_ field errors until submission anyway.
This change will significantly speed up form state response times, at
least until the form has been submitted. From then on, all field
validations will run regardless, just as they do now. If custom
validations continue to slow down form state response times, there is a
new `event` arg introduced in #10738 that can be used to control whether
heavy operations occur on change or on submit.
Related: #10638
Field paths within hooks are not correct.
For example, an unnamed tab containing a group field and nested text
field should have the path:
- `myGroupField.myTextField`
However, within hooks that path is formatted as:
- `_index-1.myGroupField.myTextField`
The leading index shown above should not exist, as this field is
considered top-level since it is located within an unnamed tab.
This discrepancy is only evident through the APIs themselves, such as
when creating a request with invalid data and reading the validation
errors in the response. Form state contains proper field paths, which is
ultimately why this issue was never caught. This is because within the
admin panel we merge the API response with the current form state,
obscuring the underlying issue. This becomes especially obvious in
#10580, where we no longer initialize validation errors within form
state until the form has been submitted, and instead rely solely on the
API response for the initial error state.
Here's comprehensive example of how field paths _should_ be formatted:
```
{
// ...
fields: [
{
// path: 'topLevelNamedField'
// schemaPath: 'topLevelNamedField'
// indexPath: ''
name: 'topLevelNamedField',

### What?
When the doc permissions were retrieved from the DB, we were coercing
them into strings even when they should not have been.
### Why?
Usage of `id.toString()`
### How?
Remove `id.toString()`. The id will be correct by this point and we
should never coerce id's like this.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8218
### What?
Error thrown when initiating the Estonian language (`et`) from
`@payloadcms/translations`
<img width="896" alt="Screenshot 2025-01-27 at 3 17 49 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/27603c75-d713-4f11-b141-dc293d51800c"
/>
### How?
`et` needed to be added to `importDateFNSLocale`. Tested after this
change and the error is no longer present.
Fixes#10817
### What?
When the draft functionality is enabled, in the version history page,
_Restore this version_ renders an empty submenu popup.
### Why?
Restore this version button has below 2 basic scenarios:
1. restore a previously published version.
In this scenario, this button has a second option _Restore as a draft_
which is in the button submenu area, it works perfectly.
2. restore a draft version
As a draft version, there should not have a second option _Restore as a
draft_, because it is a draft version itself, so this second option and
the submenu is not required in this scenario, but actually it shows an
empty submenu which is not a good idea
### How?
Check if this version is a draft version, if yes, no need to set a
render prop to the button component, so the empty popup won't be
displayed.

Fixes: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10787
The underlying problem is that there are types in the form builder
plugin that are unnecessarily `any` or `unknown`.
Here in the website template this was being circumvented with a function
that was not really needed (buildInitialFormState), and with new unknown
types (Value, Property and Data).
Since create-payload-app fetches from the latest commit instead of the
latest release, it is necessary to first merge
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10789, and once the next
release is done this PR can be merged.
### What?
This PR fixes an issue for tab subfield permissions
### Why?
Permissions were not being correctly extracted when passing them down.
### How?
Properly extracts permissions when rendering fields inside the active tab.

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

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10787
This is the first part of the fix for
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10787.
The second part is https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10785
The `packages/plugin-form-builder/src/types.ts` file contains many more
types besides MessageField.message that are unnecessarily `unknown` or
`any`.
In this PR I'm only fixing that one because:
1. It's what's needed to fix the issue.
2. I want to avoid a breaking change (they should be improved in v4
though).
I don't think MessageField.message will cause a breaking change for
anyone, since it's based on a rich text field.
### What?
- Removes the tenant cookie when the user logs out
- Prevents double redirect to globals when no tenant is selected
### Why?
There were a couple scenarios where the cookie and the tenant did not
match, ie if you logged into 1 tenant, and then out and then into
another tenant.
If the bun extension is installed, a "Run Test" button is displayed in
int test files. Clicking it will use bun to run those tests, which will
always fail.
This PR disables that test button, as it's useless in our repo
The real button here is "Run". Clicking "Run Test" instead will use bun
and fail. Confusing, right?
Field validations currently run very often, such as within form state on
type. This can lead to serious performance implications within the admin
panel if those validation functions are async, especially if they
perform expensive database queries. One glaring example of this is how
all relationship and upload fields perform a database lookup in order to
evaluate that the given value(s) satisfy the defined filter options. If
the field is polymorphic, this can happen multiple times over, one for
each collection. Similarly, custom validation functions might also
perform expensive tasks, something that Payload has no control over.
The fix here is two-fold. First, we now provide a new `event` arg to all
`validate` functions that allow you to opt-in to performing expensive
operations _only when documents are submitted_, and fallback to
significantly more performant validations as form state is generated.
This new pattern will be the new default for relationship and upload
fields, however, any custom validation functions will need to be
implemented in this way in order to take advantage of it. Here's what
that might look like:
```
[
// ...
{
name: 'text'
type: 'text',
validate: async (value, { event }) => {
if (event === 'onChange') {
// Do something highly performant here
return true
}
// Do something more expensive here
return true
}
}
]
```
The second part of this is to only run validations _after the form as
been submitted_, and then every change event thereafter. This work is
being done in #10580.
This was a tricky one.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10700
May potentially fix 9163
This could have also been causing glitchyness related to things like
lexical upload / relationship / link node population.
## Issue and solution explained
The lexical field afterRead hook is responsible for executing afterRead
hooks (this includes relationship population) for all sub-nodes, e.g.
upload or block nodes.
Any field and population promises that were created in the process of
traversing the lexical editor state were added to the parent
`fieldPromises` and `populationPromises` array.
Now this lexical `afterRead` hook, which is responsible for creating and
adding all field and population promises of its sub-nodes to the parent
`fieldPromises` and `populationPromises` arrays, was itself part of the
**same** `fieldPromises` array.
The execution of this lexical `afterRead` hook itself is happening while
the `fieldPromises` array is being awaited. This means that new field
and population promises were being added to this same array DURING the
process of awaiting all promises of this array.
As a result, any promises dynamically added while awaiting the initial
set of fieldPromises were not included in the initial `Promise.all()`
awaiting process, leading to unhandled promises.
This PR resolves the issue by ensuring that promises are repeatedly
awaited until no new promises remain in the arrays. By continuously
awaiting the `fieldPromises` and `populationPromises` until all
dynamically added promises are fully resolved, this PR ensures that any
promises added during the processing of a parent promise are also
properly awaited. This guarantees that no promises are skipped,
preserving the intended behavior of the afterRead hook

### What?
This PR adds a few missing query params to the list of REST query params

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

### What
This PR adds a filtering mechanism to exclude certain reserved fields
from being displayed in the `Edit Many` drawer for bulk uploads. This
ensures that only relevant fields are available for bulk editing.
### Why
Fields like `filename`, `mimeType`, and `filesize` are not intended to
be edited in bulk. Filtering these fields streamlines the interface and
focuses on fields that are meaningful for bulk operations.
### How
- Introduced a `filterOutUploadFields` utility to exclude reserved
fields from the field selection in bulk uploads.
- Applied this filter to the `Edit Many` drawer, ensuring a more
relevant and user-friendly experience.
- Reserved fields include properties like `file`, `mimeType`, `url`,
`width`, `height`, and others that are not applicable for bulk editing.
### What?
This PR introduces the ability to bulk edit multiple uploads
simultaneously within the `Edit all` option for bulk uploads. Users can
now select fields to update across all selected uploads in a single
operation.
### Why?
Managing multiple uploads individually can be time-consuming and
inefficient, especially when updating common fields. This feature
streamlines the process, improving user experience and productivity when
handling bulk uploads.
### How?
* Added an `Edit Many` drawer component specific to bulk uploads that
allows users to select fields for bulk editing.
* Enhanced the FormsManager and related logic to ensure updates are
applied consistently across all selected uploads.
- Fixes collection and tab descriptions not having a bottom padding:
- Deprecates `description` on tabs config in favour of
`admin.description` but supports both
- Adds test to make sure `admin.description` renders with static string
and function too for tabs
Fixes an issue where pasting text over a selection will automatically
add it as a link instead of replacing the text. This is caused by poor
regex matching in the case of relative URLs.
Added tests and strengthened both absolute and relative URL matchers
### What?
When switching tenants from within a document and then navigating back
out to the list view, the tenant would not be set correctly.
### Why?
This was because we handle the tenant selector selection differently
when viewing a document.
### How?
Now when you navigate out, the page will refresh the cookie.
Also adds test suite config that shows how the dom can be used to
manipulate styles per tenant.
### What?
This PR adds information and examples on the `useSelection` and
`useStepNav` hooks.
### Why?
To provide more information on the React hooks available to end-users.
### How?

Running `pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant@beta` will install
`v.0.0.1` which is outdated:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant?activeTab=versions
I suspect the intention was to remove `@beta` from the plugin install
instructions with yesterday's Payload `v3.18.0` release which also
bumped `plugin-multi-tenant` to `v3.18.0`, but this might have been
missed.

Following Theo's [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sdXSczmvNc)
about the [blog
post](https://kettanaito.com/blog/dont-sleep-on-abort-controller) about
AbortController I came across a bit of code in examples that looked a
bit ugly and thought the AbortController could simplify it a bit
(especially the checks for the DOM node in the removal part).
### How?
Just re-writing the code in a different way. Though, I admit I'm not
wholly sure where the Cards are being used and for what purpose so I
haven't checked that there is no difference to the behaviour of the
code.

### What?
Fixes issue where the provider would throw an error and prevent the
login screen from loading if there was no user.
### Why?
Missing try/catch around tenant find for the provider. (Missed because
test suites have autoLogin: true)
### How?
Adds try/catch around find query.
### What?
Currently it is not possible to override the upload component.
### Why?
The ability to override the upload component is missing from
`renderDocumentSlots`.
### How?
Adding a check to include the custom upload component if it is

Previously, we were unnecessarily passing the `ClientCollectionConfig`
down from the Table to the Client, even though the client cell
components could simply access it via the `useConfig` hook. This
resulted in redundant data being sent to the client for every single
table cell. Additionally, we were performing a deep copy of the
`ClientCollectionConfig`, which wasted both memory and CPU resources on
the server.

Custom block row labels defined on `admin.components.Label` were not
rendering despite existing in the config. Instead, if a custom label
component was defined on the _top-level_ blocks field itself, it was
incorrectly replacing each blocks label _in addition_ to the field's
label. Now, custom labels defined at the field-level now only replace
the field's label as expected, and custom labels defined at the
block-level are now supported as the types suggest.
Previously, the beforeValidate hook was deepCopying input data. This
indirectly ensured that the passed input data was not mutated.
E.g., if you run the `payload.create` local API, you do not want that to
mutate the `data` object that is passed as an argument. This will create
issues if you attempt to use it multiple times.
This PR moves the deepCopy logic from the beforeValidate hook to the
start of the local API operation. This ensures that
- Input data is intentionally copied at the beginning which makes more
sense. Comment was added to explain why
- GraphQL and Rest operations are now faster, as we don't need to ensure
that the input data is not mutated for those => deepCopy only runs for
local API
Following https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10551, I found and
fixed a handful more bugs:
- When writing to the input, the results that were already there were
not cleaned, causing incorrect results to appear.
- the scroll was causing an infinite loop that showed repeated elements
- optimization: only the required field is selected (not required)
- refs are set to the initial value to avoid a state where nothing can
be searched
Having the `scripts` dir re-use all packages from the top-level was
getting quite unwieldy. Created new `tools` directory that is part of
the workspace. Packages are exported with the `@tools` package
namespace.
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9962 could be considered a
breaking change - this PR restores compatibility by allowing unknown
collection slugs, while still providing type suggestions.
The custom components example no longer ran seed on init. This is done
through a preconfigured migration script that automatically runs on
startup. The `@payloadcms/graphql` package was also incorrectly
installed as a dev dependency and the lockfile was significantly out of
date. The `react` and `react-dom` packages were also pinned to v19.0.0,
with their corresponding types packages to v19.0.1. These now all match
as expected and are identified using the caret operator to ensure the
latest versions are installed.
Bumps the following dependencies:

Previously images would not be revalidated if they were cropped or
changed in another ways.
Now if the image is updated, they will also be updated on the frontend
whenever a post is revalidated.
There was a rogue `{/* IMAGE OF LIVE PREVIEW HERE */}` comment being
rendered in the live preview docs. Comments in this format used to be
hidden, but since moving to a new rendering pattern they now appear.
### What?
Previously, field error messages displayed in toast notifications used
the field path to reference fields that failed validation. This
path-based approach was necessary to distinguish between fields that
might share the same name when nested inside arrays, groups, rows, or
collapsible fields.
However, the human readability of these paths was lacking, especially
for unnamed fields like rows and collapsible fields. For example:
- A text field inside a row could display as: `_index-0.text`
- A text field nested within multiple arrays could display as:
`items.0.subArray.0.text`
These outputs are technically correct but not user-friendly.
### Why?
While the previous format was helpful for pinpointing the specific field
that caused the validation error, it could be more user-friendly and
clearer to read. The goal is to maintain the same level of accuracy
while improving the readability for both developers and content editors.
### How?
To improve readability, the following changes were made:
1. Use Field Labels Instead of Field Paths:
- The ValidationError component now uses the label prop from the field
config (if available) instead of the field’s name.
- If a label is provided, it will be used in the error message.
- If no label exists, it will fall back to the field’s name.
2. Remove _index from Paths for Unnamed Fields (In the validationError
component only):
- For unnamed fields like rows and collapsibles, the _index prefix is
now stripped from the output to make it cleaner.
- Instead of `_index-0.text`, it now outputs just `Text`.
3. Reformat the Error Path for Readability:
- The error message format has been improved to be more human-readable,
showing the field hierarchy in a structured way with array indices
converted to 1-based numbers.
#### Example transformation:
##### Before:
The following fields are invalid: `items.0.subArray.0.text`
##### After:
The following fields are invalid: `Items 1 > SubArray 1 > Text`
### What?
The `pasteURL` feature for Upload fields has been updated to support
both **client-side** and **server-side** URL fetching. Previously, users
could only paste URLs from the same domain as their Payload instance
(internal) or public domains, which led to **CORS** errors when trying
to fetch files from external URLs.
Now, users can choose between **client-side fetching** (default) and
**server-side fetching** using the new `pasteURL` option in the Upload
collection config.
### How?
- By default, Payload will attempt to fetch the file client-side
directly in the browser.
- To enable server-side fetching, you can configure the new `pasteURL`
option with an `allowList` of trusted domains.
- The new `/api/:collectionSlug/paste-url` endpoint is used to fetch
files server-side and stream them back to the browser.
#### Example
```
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Media: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'media',
upload: {
// pasteURL: false, // Can now disable the pasteURL option entirely by passing "false".
pasteURL: {
allowList: [
{
hostname: 'payloadcms.com', // required
pathname: '',
port: '',
protocol: 'https', // defaults to https - options: "https" | "http"
search: ''
},
{
hostname: 'example.com',
pathname: '/images/*',
},
],
},
},
}
```
### Why
This update provides more flexibility for users to paste URLs into
Upload fields without running into **CORS errors** and allows Payload to
securely fetch files from trusted domains.
This adds support for calculating and displaying file sizes for JPEG XL
images.
Image resizing is not supported by sharp out-of-the-box yet:
https://github.com/lovell/sharp/issues/2731
### What?
Extends visibility into what view is being shown so custom components
have context as to where they are being rendered.
**This PR does not add React Context.**
### Why?
This was needed for the multi-tenant plugin where the selector is in the
navigation sidebar and has no way to know if it is being shown inside of
a document or the list view.
I assume other users may also want their server components to be aware
of where a component is rendering before hitting the client. An example
would be wanting to redirect on the server instead of on the client,
this is how multi-tenant redirects users from "global" enabled
collections to the document view.
### How?
Adds 2 new variables that are determined by the view being routed to.
`viewType` - which view is being rendered, ie `list`, `document`,
`version`, `account`, `verify`, `reset`
```ts
type ViewTypes =
| 'account'
| 'dashboard'
| 'document'
| 'list'
| 'reset'
| 'verify'
| 'version'
```
`documentSubViewType` - which tells you what sub view you are on, ie
`api`, `livePreview`, `default`, `versions`
```ts
type DocumentSubViewTypes =
| 'api'
| 'default'
| 'livePreview'
| 'version'
| 'versions'
```
- reduces unnecessary shallow copying within operations by removing
unnecessary spreads or .map()'s
- removes unnecessary `deleteMany` call in `deleteUserPreferences` for
auth-enabled collections
- replaces all instances of `validOperators.includes` with
`validOperatorMap[]`. O(n) => O(1)
- optimizes the `sanitizeInternalFields` function. Previously, it was
doing a **lot** of shallow copying
A lot of this deepCopying was just not necessary. This removes the
deepCopying from all field hook operations where I think it's 100% safe.
It does not remove all deepCopying, especially in areas where the input
data was deep copied, and that data pre-modification is then used after
the field hooks have run.
In these cases, further execution of the hook might be intentionally
expecting the unmodified version of that input data
Data for the EditMany view was fetched even though the EditMany Drawer
was not open. This, in combination with the router.replace call to add
the default limit query param, caused the root layout to re-render
### What?
General improvements:
- Disable duplication on tenant collections marked with `isGlobal`
- Simplify cookie setting logic and option loading for the selector
### What?
Updating wording for a sentence.
### Why?
I believe it was missing a word as it read a bit off without it and
causes a reread.
### How?
Doesn't feel like it reads right and causes a reread.

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

/**
* Set to `true` if you want the collection to behave as a global
*
* @default false
*/

*
* @default true
*/
useBaseListFilter?: boolean
/**
* Set to `false` if you want to handle collection access manually without the multi-tenant constraints applied
*
* @default true
*/
useTenantAccess?: boolean
}
}
/**

*
* @default 'tenant'
*/
name?: string
}
/**
* Field configuration for the field added to the users collection
*
* If `includeDefaultField` is `false`, you must include the field on your users collection manually
* This is useful if you want to customize the field or place the field in a specific location
*/
tenantsArrayField?:
| {
/**
* Access configuration for the array field
*/
arrayFieldAccess?: ArrayField['access']
/**
* When `includeDefaultField` is `true`, the field will be added to the users collection automatically
*/
includeDefaultField?: true
/**
* Additional fields to include on the tenants array field
*/
rowFields?: Field[]
/**
* Access configuration for the tenant field
*/
tenantFieldAccess?: RelationshipField['access']
}
| {
arrayFieldAccess?: never
/**
* When `includeDefaultField` is `false`, you must include the field on your users collection manually
*/
includeDefaultField?: false
rowFields?: never
tenantFieldAccess?: never
}
/**
* The slug for the tenant collection
*
* @default 'tenants'
*/
tenantsSlug?: string
/**
* Function that determines if a user has access to _all_ tenants
*
* Useful for super-admin type users
*/
userHasAccessToAllTenants?: (
user: ConfigTypes extends { user: User } ? ConfigTypes['user'] : User,
) => boolean
}
```
**Example usage**
```ts
import type { Config } from './payload-types'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
plugins: [
multiTenantPlugin<Config>({
collections: {
pages: {},
},
userHasAccessToAllTenants: (user) => isSuperAdmin(user),
}),
],
})
```
### How to configure Collections as Globals for multi-tenant
When using multi-tenant, globals need to actually be configured as
collections so the content can be specific per tenant.
To do that, you can mark a collection with `isGlobal` and it will behave
like a global and users will not see the list view.
```ts
multiTenantPlugin({
collections: {
navigation: {
isGlobal: true,
},
},
})
```

### What?
When a document gets deleted we are not cleaning up jobs that would fail
if the document doesn't exist. This change makes an extra call to the DB
to delete any incomplete jobs for the document.
### Why?
The jobs queue will error and retry needlessly unless these are purged.
### How?
Adds a call to delete jobs from the delete operation.
### What?
While working on a custom database adapter (I know I am crazy for this)
I noticed that UpsertArgs is not exported when doing:
```
import {
type UpsertArgs
} from 'payload'
```
it results in:
```
Error: src/index.ts(21,8): error TS2614: Module '"payload"' has no exported member 'UpsertArgs'. Did you mean to use 'import UpsertArgs from "payload"' instead?
```
### Why?
Because index.ts in packages/payload/src/index.ts includes Upsert but
not UpsertArgs in export.
### How?
Add the export from UpsertArgs back.
Previously, every error from MongoDB was logged as "Value must be
unique", as well the response code should not be `BAD_REQUEST` but
`INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR`. `throw error` preserves the original error so
it can be traced.
This PR makes the "test" folder strict in typescript.
`pnpm build:test` before: Found 3275 errors in 174 files.
`pnpm build:test` after: Found 4912 errors in 268 files.
At some point we should bring that number to 0 and make it a requirement
in the CI. Currently `pnpm build:test` is not run anywhere in the CI.
Additionally, I took the opportunity to combine the duplicate
configurations from `tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.typecheck.json` using
"extend".
declaration, declarationMap and sourceMap have been removed as they have
no reason to exist in noEmit.
The settings I left in `tsconfig.typecheck.json` are ones that I'm not
sure why they are there. Perhaps the file could be removed or at least
reduced further.
This PR modifies `tsconfig.base.json` by setting the following
strictness properties to true: `strict`, `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` and
`noImplicitOverride`.
In packages where compilation errors were observed, these settings were
opted out, and TODO comments were added to make it easier to track the
roadmap for converting everything to strict mode.
The following packages now have increased strictness, which prevents new
errors from being accidentally introduced:
- storage-vercel-blob
- storage-s3*
- storage-gcs
- plugin-sentry
- payload-cloud*
- email-resend*
- email-nodemailer*
*These packages already had `strict: true`, but now have
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess` and `noImplicitOverride`.
Note that this only affects the `/packages` folder, but not
`/templates`, `/test` or `/examples` which have a different `tsconfig`.
The `access.read` function executed within form state was missing the
`id` arg, and was also incorrectly setting `data` as `doc`. When
building form state, there is no concept of a "doc" because it is
possible to build form state using only a subset of fields. There is
"data", however, which represents the schema path at the entry point of
the function. Similarly, when building form state on within an
`onChange` function, for example, we do not send the original doc
through the request, which is what "doc" would represent. Instead, we
send either `data` or `formState`, both of which could represent a
_modified_ doc. This particular invocation of read access does not
effect the visibility of fields themselves, but rather their return
values from the form state endpoint. Field visibility is determined at
the request level.
This significantly optimizes the form state, reducing its size by up to
more than 3x and improving overall response times. This change also has
rolling effects on initial page size as well, where the initial state
for the entire form is sent through the request. To achieve this, we do
the following:
- Remove `$undefined` strings that are potentially attached to
properties like `value`, `initialValue`, `fieldSchema`, etc.
- Remove unnecessary properties like empty `errorPaths` arrays and empty
`customComponents` objects, which only need to exist if used
- Remove unnecessary properties like `valid`, `passesCondition`, etc.
which only need to be returned if explicitly `false`
- Remove unused properties like `isSidebar`, which simply don't need to
exist at all, as they can be easily calculated during render
## Results
The following results were gathered by booting up each test suite listed
below using the existing seed data, navigating to a document in the
relevant collection, then typing a single letter into the noted field in
order to invoke new form-state. The result is then saved to the file
system for comparison.
| Test Suite | Collection | Field | Before | After | Percentage Change |
|------|------|---------|--------|--------|--------|
| `field-perf` | `blocks-collection` | `layout.0.field1` | 227kB | 110
kB | ~52% smaller |
| `fields` | `array-fields` | `items.0.text` | 14 kB | 4 kB | ~72%
smaller |
| `fields` | `block-fields` | `blocks.0.richText` | 25 kB | 14 kB | ~44%

Previously, the url field of a link was stored and outputted despite the
link being an internal link. This PR ensures that either the link url,
or the link doc is stored and outputted - never both.
If you add text to the editor, then delete it using ctrl+a + delete, one
empty paragraph that cannot be removed remains in the editor state.
In order to account for this, we have a `hasText()` function - this,
however, was not used in our JSX and HTML converters. This caused the
converters to incorrectly output a linebreak if said empty editor state
was passed in.
Original issue: #10534
The original issue was partially fixed by #10535, but it missed a case
that overrides a post method with get.
This PR passes the `basePath` to the overridden call.
Better error message when no argument is passed to `pnpm payload`.
Before:
```

After:
```

After working on this I found a more accurate way to reproduce the bug:
- in the issue repro, type a letter in the select menu.
- delete the letter and wait for the debounce (300ms)
- type another letter.
- in devtools, you should see that the query increases the pagination by
+1. With this change, the pagination is reset when the input changes.

I'd like to do integration testing. But since there is no isolated `/ui`
test yet, this requires some planning. I have it pending.
### What?
Allows a user to delete a scheduled publish event after it has been
added:
### Why?
Previously a user had no control over making changes once scheduled.
### How?
Extends the `scheduledPublishHandler` server action to accept a
`deleteID` for the event that should be removed and exposes this to the
user via the admin UI in a new column in the Upcoming Events table.
Refined the grammar and structure of the usage note for
`vercelPostgresAdapter`. Replaced the ambiguous phrase "If when using"
with "If you are using" for better readability and clarity.
Continuation of #10540. Passes server props to custom label components
rendered within table columns, such as the list view. This way custom
server components can have access to `payload`, `i18n`, etc. as
expected.

In PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9507, which aims to
enable only used formats to be enabled in lexical, the
`TEXT_TYPE_TO_FORMAT` constant in the lexical library was altered. This
means it becomes impossible to create a feature relying on the
`highlight` format. I am of the opinion that this should not be the
case; and have used this for a lexical feature in one of my projects.
The type of `enabledFormats` of the `createClientFeature` function
should also be updated to reflect the availability of the format.
This PR aims to:
- Remove the alteration to the library constant
- Update type of `enabledFormats`
### What?
The list view was throwing a hydration error for date fields.
### Why?
The issue really stems from the fact that cells are client rendered. We
dynamically load the dateFNS Locale object at runtime to keep the bundle
size small — which makes sense. But on the first render that means we do
not have the Locale object from the known locale so the server/client
determines what to render it as. This causes a mismatch when hydrating.
In the future I think cells could be server rendered and that would
solve the need for this fix which adds "Loading..." while the dateFNS
Locale is loaded.
I think server rendering the cells would allow us to import the dateFNS
Locale inline (blocking) and then pass the rendered string down to the
list view. This should work because we **know** the locale on the
server.
### How?
In this PR, it adds a "Loading..." fallback for the date cell if the
dateFNS Locale has not loaded yet.
Fixes#10044
Fixes#10529. The `req.locale` property within collection and global
access control functions does not reflect the current locale. This was
because we were attaching the locale to the req only _after_ running
`payload.auth`, which attempts to get access control without a
fully-formed req. The fix is to first authenticate the user using the
`executeAuthStrategies` operation directly, then determine the request
locale with that user, and finally get access results with the proper
locale.
This PR adds `cacheTags: boolean` (default `true`) to allow users to
disable the appended document updatedAt value in the case of hosting
with third party CDNs which may not allow additional search params and
throw an error.
It also fixes how we append this value to consider the case where the
URL already contains parameters and appends it with `&` instead.
In the future `cacheTags` can be made an object to allow granularity for
disabling `eTag` headers used for caching as well.
The cache tag control should help with these two issues:
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9880
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9993
The appending of the value correctly addresses this:
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10139

I don't know why we had 2 different copies of normalizeMarkdown.
Also, the most up-to-date one still had a bug where lines were
considered as if they were inside codeblocks when they weren't.
How I tested that it works:
1. I copied the `normalizeMarkdown` implementation from this PR into the
website repo, and made sure it is called before the conversion to
editorState.
2. In the admin panel, sync docs.
3. In the admin panel, refresh mdx to lexical (new button, below sync
docs).
4. Look for the examples from bug #10387 and verify that they have been
resolved.
An extra pair of eyes would be nice to make sure I'm not getting
confused with the imports.
### What?
Consolidates logic in update and updateByID. These two operations used a
lot of the same core functionality. This is a QOL improvement for future
features/fixes on each operation. You will not need to make changes to
both operations now.
### Why?
Recently we released a feature for `publishSpecificLocale` and that was
only implemented on the updateByID operation. I think future
enhancements and fixes may suffer the same treatment.
### How?
Moves shared logic into a new file with a function called
`updateDocument`.
### What?
This PR fixes a minor issue in `richtext-lexical` where editor
placeholders were not localized.
### Why?
To allow users to localize placeholders accordingly with their language
preferences in config.
### How?
By evaluating the placeholder in the editor RSC, if any is provided. The
`ContentEditable` component falls back to a default in the event that no
placeholder was provided as this was the existing behavior.
Fixes#10518
The `req` object returned from `initReq` does not include the `user`
property, and instead returned `user` and `i18n` _alongside_ the req
(and in the case of `i18n`, duplicately, as it was _also_ on the req).
Now, these properties exist directly on the req itself as expected. The
`initPage` function was also unnecessary instantiating a new local req
object just to override the `headers`, `url`, and `query` properties.
Instead of doing this, we now support overriding properties upon
instantiating a new req, bypassing the need to create an entirely new
object.

This call
```ts
const result = await payload.create({

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

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

I think some automatic formatter added the `{' '}` styling, it doesn't
render correctly. Update the formatting for this banner to remove it and
correctly refer to the `_status` field.

There was a `<br/>` tag, which was visible on the docs page. Also, I
removed spacing from the second tip box, to keep in consistent with tips
in other places in docs.
Previously, updates of the node fields from outside the form using
setFields did not trigger re-fetching the initial state, and thus
providing updated values to the form. This is to avoid unnecessary
re-renders of the form and unnecessary requests when setFields is
triggered from within the form.
This PR resets the initial state, thus triggering a re-render and
re-fetch of the initial state, if node.setFields is called from outside
the form. This preserves the performance optimization
The collection access endpoint, apparently, can be used without an ID as
well and the correct status code in `notFoundResponse` was missing.

This PR auto-runs jobs only when an admin route is visited. This
solution is only temporary, as it will not work for deployments without
the admin panel that should run jobs
This PR improves how we handle REST API.
Problems before:
* `packages/next/src/routes/rest/*` had a huge amount of code that
didn't depend on next.js at all.
* `packages/next/src/routes/rest/index.ts` itself was not only huge but
also really hard to follow. Every method (`GET`, `POST` etc. was almost
full copy of another).
* `packages/next/src/utilities` had some utilities like
`headersWithCors` or `createPayloadRequest` that again, weren't depend
on next.js and potentially can be used outside of next.js.
Now:
All the logic that's not related to next.js now is inside
`packages/payload`, `packages/next/src/routes/rest/index.ts` now is only
_40_ lines instead of 900+
Functions like `headersWithCors` are now implemented and exported in
`payload`. To keep bc, we re-export them from the same path but marked
as `@deprecated`.
You can attach Payload REST API to any backend framework that uses Fetch
API (like Remix / SolidStart / Bun / Hono) if you don't need the admin
panel in your server instance, but you still want to have REST API. The
main function [`handleEndpoints`
](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10466/files#diff-82e97630068f9fc40256f3f46e06226215ab150d16012281810586b51b0cfd51R28)
accepts `Request` and returns `Response`.
It's also doable with Express, but you'd have to convert node.js'
req/res to fetch.
The `ListPreferences` and `ColumnPreferences` types were defined
multiple times in different places, making it difficult to make changes
across the board. Now, the `ListPreferences` type is exported directly
from `payload` alongside the other preferences types, and
`ColumnPreferences` has been merged directly into this type to simplify
usage as this is not a standalone preference.
Currently, unless a locale is present in the URL search params, the
locale context is instantiated using the default locale until prefs load
in client-side. This causes the locale selector to briefly render in
with the incorrect (default) locale before being replaced by the proper
locale of the request. For example, if the default locale is `en`, and
the page is requested in `es`, the locale selector will flash with
English before changing to the correct locale, even though the page data
itself is properly loaded in Spanish. This is especially evident within
slow networks.
The fix is to query the user's locale preference server-side and thread
it into the locale provider to initialize state. Because search params
are not available within server layouts, we cannot pass the locale param
in the same way, so we rely on the provider itself to read them from the
`useSearchParams` hook. If present, this takes precedence over the
user's preference if it exists.
Since the root page also queries the user's locale preference to
determine the proper locale across navigation, we use React's cache
function to dedupe these function calls and ensure only a single query
is made to the db for each request.
If the user has tasks configured, we set up cron jobs on init.
We also make sure to only run on one instance using a instance
identifier stored in a global.
This adds a new property to the payloadCloudPlugin: `jobs`.
It is currently possible to set all types of valid JSON within the
`payload-preferences` collection via the REST API, but not the Local
API. For example, locales are currently saved as plain strings to the
`value` field, something that is only possible through REST. This is
because there is a custom POST handler that submits the data directly to
the db using the update operation itself, bypassing typical `json` field
validation. However, when using the Local API, it does not behave in the
same way, and throws a validation error instead. The fix is to add a
custom `validate` function to this field that attempts to parse the
value, and if it succeeds, returns true. This way both APIs behave the
same.
### What?
In the scheduled publish feature, it is possible to open the modal to
schedule publishing a document even before you have saved a draft. This
change removes the option to open the drawer to even attempt this.
This also fixes an issue if you do not have permission to publish, you
cannot schedule publish either.
### Why?
There were numerous problems:
1. The schedule publish events would show all other publish events for
the collection without an ID in the query
2. Scheduling a publish would not work without an ID for a document to
publish
### How?
Removes the Schedule Publish menu item and drawer if you are on a
collection without an ID or you do not have permission to publish.
Without an ID:
With an ID:
Perviously, you would always have the option to Schedule Publish.
### What?
Export the default Payload JWTAuthentication strategy function for
extending and using in your own custom auth strategies that need to rely
on JWT.
### Why?
This makes it more simple to implement your own custom auth strategy.
All you need to do is set a valid JWT token as a cookie and then import
the default auth strategy so that the user will be recognized.
### How?
Exports the function and makes it reusable by adding a to the args a
strategyName prop. In the `executeAuthStrategies` function we assign the
strategyName from the configured `auth.strategies` own `name` property.
### What?
The status indicator was not updating properly when users were clicking
"unpublish" and "revert changes"
### Why?
hasPublishedDoc, unpublishedVersionCount and
mostRecentVersionIsAutosaved states were not being updated properly.
### How?
This PR updates the variables when interacting with the status actions
and sets mostRecentVersionIsAutosaved to false when the publish button
is clicked.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9531
Fixes#10284. The `admin.disable` property is no longer supported as of
v3. Instead, to opt-out of serving the Admin Panel, REST API, or GraphQL
API, you must delete their corresponding directories within your Next.js
app. For example, to opt-out of everything, delete the `/app/(payload)`
directory entirely. Or to remove specifically the Admin Panel or API
routes, delete the `/app/(payload)/admin` or `/app/(payload)/api`
directories, respectively. Note: if you've modified the default paths
for these routes via `admin.routes`, delete those directories instead.
Makes the wrapper container `<div class='payload-richtext'>` optional.
This is useful when importing and re-using the `<RichText/>` component
as part of another custom component already providing a container.
If the following markdown:
```md
**`text`**
```
was imported and then re-exported, the result was
```md
`**text**`
```
Which would have been rendered as
```html
<code>**text**</code>
```
Instead of
```html
<strong><code>text</code></strong>
```
The localization e2e test is notorious for flaking, consuming a lot of
time and resources continually retrying. This was because the test was
attempting to click DOM elements using selectors that never resolve, or
attempting to click inaccessible DOM nodes such as those behind a modal.
The fix is to ensure that the dot nav, for example, is disabled while
form state loads, and that modals are properly closed prior to executing
subsequent tests, etc. Tests also needed to explicitly check for
_enabled_ states before performing click actions, rather than simply
awaiting their visibility.
Fixes#10018. When toggling columns, then sorting them, the table is
reset to the collection's default columns instead of the user's
preferred columns. This is because when sorting columns, a stale
client-side cache of the user's preferences is used to update their sort
preference. This is because when column state is constructed
server-side, it completely bypasses the client-side cache. To fix this,
sort preferences are now also set on the server right alongside column
preferences, which performs an upsert-like operation to ensure that no
existing preferences are lost.
### What?
If you query with all locales using the `'all'` value for locales, the
`req.locale` value is `'all'` but the type definition only contains the
available locales.
### Why?
The `CustomPayloadRequestProperties.locale` property was only being
typed as `TypedLocale` and was not extending `'all'.`
### How?
Extends type all to the locale type definition in req
Fixes#10244
If `@payload-config` is not set in tsconfig, findConfig could fail when
performing a `path.extname` on an undefined value.
Example error in this scenario:
```
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined.
```
Reproduction steps:
1. Set `strict: true` in `templates/website/tsconfig.json`
2. You will find a ts error in
`templates/website/src/components/RichText/index.tsx`.
This is because the blockType property of blocks is generated by Payload
as a literal (e.g. "mediaBlock") and cannot be assigned to a string.
To test this PR, you can make the change to `JSXConvertersFunction` in
node_modules of the website template
A large number of users have been confused why their upload collection
doesn't work as expected when deploying to Vercel. This is because by
default, Payload uses local disk storage for file uploads - which will
not function properly in that environment.
This adds a warning if a user is deploying on Vercel, and they have any
upload collection missing an adapter - aka, writing to disk.
### What?
Uses `cross-env` for the `dev:payload` script in the plugin template.
### Why?
To achieve compatibility with Windows.
### How?
Adds `cross-env` as a dev dependency and modifies the `dev:payload`
script.

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

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

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

I'm unable to build a package to test with. I have tested the
implementation outside. Is it possible to get a canary build so proper
testing with package can be done?

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

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

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

undefined objects.

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

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

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

There were a handful of list view e2e tests written into the text and
email field test suite, making them hard to find as they were isolated
from other related tests. A few of these tests were also duplicative
across suites, making CI run them twice unnecessarily.
### What?
Exit process after `payload jobs:run` without cron is executed
### Why?
I would expect the `payload jobs:run` command to exit normally after
execution. With mongodb this is not the case as database connections are
open so the node process itself will not exit.
### How?
Execute `payload.db.destroy` to close all db connections after queue is
execution is done.
Fixes: #9851
Removes the useless `_verified` checkbox from user creation. We can't
make it functional from the admin UI, because if we respected the
incoming `_verified` property from a user creation, then any user could
auto-verify themselves via REST / GraphQL APIs.

Improves the admin e2e test splitting by grouping them by type with
semantic names as opposed to numerically. This will provide much needed
clarity to exactly _where_ new admin tests should be written and help to

Previously, the following MDX could not be parsed by lexical:
```tsx
<RestExamples
data={[
{
operation: "Find"
}
]}
```
Instead, it had to be converted into valid JSON:
```tsx
<RestExamples

```
This PR permits using the first example, as it swaps out JSON.parse with
them ore lenient [json5](https://www.npmjs.com/package/json5) package

When using various controls within the List View, those selections are
sometimes not persisted. This is especially evident when selecting
`perPage` from the List View, where the URL and UI would reflect this
selection, but the controls would be stale. Similarly, after changing
`perPage` then navigating to another page through the pagination
controls, `perPage` would reset back to the original value. Same with
the sort controls, where sorting by a particular column would not be
reflected in the UI. This was because although we modify the URL search
params and fire off a new query with those changes, we were not updating
local component state.
Adds the ability to create a project using an existing in the Payload
repo example through `create-payload-app`:
For example:
`pnpx create-payload-app --example custom-server` - creates a project
from the
[custom-server](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/custom-server)
example.
This is much easier and faster then downloading the whole repo and
copying the example to another folder.
Note that we don't configure the payload config with the storage / DB
adapter there because examples can be very specific.
Separates `exports`, `main`, `types` for publish / dev with
`publishConfig` for the plugin template. Previously, you needed a `dist`
folder to run payload bin scripts.
Based on https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/10154
If the actual database schema is not changed (no new columns, enums,
indexes, tables) - skip calling Drizzle push. This, potentially can
significantly reduce overhead on reloads in development mode especially
when using remote databases.
If for whatever reason you need to preserve the current behavior you can
use `PAYLOAD_FORCE_DRIZZLE_PUSH=true` env flag.

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

Updates the plugin template and adds it to the monorepo
Includes:
* Integration testing setup
* Adding custom client / server components via a plugin
* The same building setup that we use for our plugins in the monorepo
* `create-payload-app` dynamically configures the project based on the
name:`dev/tsconfig.json`, `src/index.ts`, `dev/payload.config.ts`
For example, from project name: `payload-plugin-cool`
`src/index.ts`:
```ts
export type PayloadPluginCoolConfig = {
/**
* List of collections to add a custom field
*/
collections?: Partial<Record<CollectionSlug, true>>
disabled?: boolean
}
export const payloadPluginCool =

Previously we had been downgrading rimraf to v3 simply to handle clean

package scripts to be windows compatible.
Fixes#10180. When logged in as an unauthorized user who cannot access
the admin panel, the user is unable to log out through the prompted
`/admin/logout` page. This was because that page was using an incorrect
API endpoint, reading from `admin.user` instead of `user.collection`
when formatting the route. This page was also able to get stuck in an
infinite loading state when attempting to log out without any user at
all. Now, public users can properly log out and then back in with
another user who might have access. The messaging around this was also
misleading. Instead of displaying the "Unauthorized, you must be logged
in to make this request" message, we now display a new "Unauthorized,
this user does not have access to the admin panel" message for added
clarity.
As pointed out in #10164, parsing a `where` query from search params is
not exactly straightforward. Internally we rely on the `qs` module for
this, but it comes with a couple small nuances that are undocumented,
like the need to stringify them and specify depth. To standardize this,
we use a `parseSearchParams` utility internally that accepts the
`URLSearchParams` object that the `useSearchParams()` hook returns from
`next/navigation`. This PR exports that function for reuse and adds
JSDocs accordingly. Usage looks something like this:
```tsx
'use client'
import { useSearchParams } from 'next/navigation'
import { parseSearchParams } from '@payloadcms/ui'
function MyComponent() {
const searchParams = useSearchParams()
const parsedSearchParams = parseSearchParams(searchParams)
}
```
### What?
With Postgres, before join to self like:
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const SelfJoins: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'self-joins',
fields: [
{
name: 'rel',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'self-joins',
},
{
name: 'joins',
type: 'join',
on: 'rel',
collection: 'self-joins',
},
],
}
```
wasn't possible, even though it's a valid usage.
### How?
Now, to differentiate parent `self_joins` and children `self_joins` we
do additional alias for the nested select -
`"4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"`:
```sql
select
"id",
"rel_id",
"updated_at",
"created_at",
(
select
coalesce(
json_agg(
json_build_object('id', "joins_alias".id)
),
'[]' :: json
)
from
(
select
"created_at",
"rel_id",
"id"
from
"self_joins" "4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"
where
"4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"."rel_id" = "self_joins"."id"
order by
"4d3cf2b6_1adf_46a8_b6d2_3e1c3809d737"."created_at" desc
limit
$1
) "joins_alias"
) as "joins_alias"
from
"self_joins"
where
"self_joins"."id" = $2
order by
"self_joins"."created_at" desc
limit
$3
```

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

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

a significant security risk.
Removed the console.log statements from three preview/route.ts files.
### What?
Previously, the `with-vercel-website` template included a `DATABASE_URI`
env var in the `.env.example` file - which was unneeded.
### Why?
The `with-vercel-website` template uses a `POSTGRES_URL` env var for the
db connection string env var instead.
### How?
Removes the `DATABASE_URI` env var from the .env.example file.
Also, updates the `DATABASE_URI` db string names in the following
templates from `payloadtests` to `your-database-name` for a more generic
/ clear name:
- with-postgres
- with-vercel-mongodb
- with-vercel-postgres

The auth example was not properly awaiting `getHeaders` from
`next/navigation`. This was simply outdated, as this function was
changed to async over the course of the various RC versions during our
beta phase.
* Avoids additional file system writes (1 for `await writeFile` and then
`npx prettier --write`) instead prettier now formats the javascript
string directly. Went from 650 MS to 250 MS for the prettify block.
* Disables database connection, since the `db.generateSchema` doesn't
need connection, this also disables Drizzle schema push.
* Properly exits the bin script process.
The auth example was still on `v3.0.0-beta.24`, was missing its users
collection config, and was not yet using the component paths pattern
established here: #7246. This updates to latest and fixes these issues.
This example can still use further improvements and housekeeping which
will come in future PRs.

This PR allows to have full type safety on `payload.drizzle` with a

Which generates TypeScript code with Drizzle declarations based on the

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

This PR makes changes to every storage adapter in order to add
browser-based caching by returning etags, then checking for them into
incoming requests and responding a status code of `304` so the data
doesn't have to be returned again.
Performance improvements for cached subsequent requests:
This respects `disableCache` in the dev tools.
Also fixes a bug with getting the latest image when using the Vercel
Blob Storage adapter.
By default, if a task has passed previously and a workflow is re-run,
the task will not be re-run. Instead, the output from the previous task
run will be returned. This is to prevent unnecessary re-runs of tasks
that have already passed.
This PR allows you to configure this behavior through the
`retries.shouldRestore` property. This property accepts a boolean or a
function for more complex restore behaviors.
### What?
Previously, upload files urls were not being encoded.
### Why?
As a result, this could lead to discrepancies where upload filenames
with spaces - the spaces would not be encoded as %20 in the URL.
### How?
To address this issue, we simply need to encode the filename of the
upload media.

Previously, if you selected only upload `hasMany: true` field, you would
receive an empty arrays always, because the `_rels` table wasn't joined
in this case. Fixes the condition to count `field.type === 'upload'` .
### What?
Previously, setting the `admin.rows` property did not change the height
of the `textarea` field input.
### Why?
Although `rows` was being properly set on the textarea element - it's
absolute positioning prevented the height from actually changing.
### How?
Updates the styles of the textarea field component to properly allow the
rows prop to change the height of the field.
Example w/:
```

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

### What?
`payload.db.updateOne` (and so `payload.db.upsert`) with drizzle
adapters used incoming `where` incorrectly and worked properly only
either if you passed `id` or some where query path required table joins
(like `where: { 'array.title'`) which is also the reason why `upsert`
_worked_ with user preferences specifically, because we need to join the
`preferences_rels` table to query by `user.relationTo` and `user.value`

### What?
Previously, the `admin.group` property on `collection` / `global`
configs allowed for a custom group and the `admin.hidden` property would
not only hide the entity from the nav sidebar / dashboard but also

### Why?
There was not a simple way to hide an entity from the nav sidebar /
dashboard but still keep the entities routes.
### How?
Now - we've added the `false` type to the `admin.group` field to account
for this.
Passing `false` to `admin.group` will hide the entity from the sidebar
nav and dashboard but keep the routes available to navigate.
I.e
```
admin: {

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

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

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

Continuation of #9846 and partial fix for #9774. When setting
`admin.disableListFilter` retroactively, it remains active within the
list filter controls. Same for when the URL search query contains one of
these fields, except this will actually display the _wrong_ field,
falling back to the _first_ field from the config. The fix is to
properly disable the condition for this field if it's an active filter,
while still preventing it from ever rendering as an option within the
field selector itself.
Partial fix for #9774. When `admin.disableListColumn` is set
retroactively, it continues to appear in column state, but shouldn't.
This was because the table column context was not refreshing after HMR
runs, and would instead hold onto these stale columns until the page
itself refreshes. Similarly, this was also a problem when the user had
saved any of these columns to their list preferences, where those prefs
would take precedence despite these properties being set on the
underlying fields. The fix is to filter these columns from all requests
that send them, and ensure local component state properly refreshes
itself.
### What?
It became possible for fields to reset to a defined `defaultValue` when
bulk editing from the `edit-many` drawer.
### Why?
The form-state of all fields were being considered during a bulk edit -
this also meant using their initial states - this meant any fields with
default values or nested fields (`arrays`) would be overwritten with
their initial states
I.e. empty values or default values.
### How?
Now - we only send through the form data of the fields specifically
being edited in the edit-many drawer and ignore all other fields.
Leaving all other fields stay their current values.
Fixes#9590

### What?
Custom auth collections default `useAsTitle` to `id`.
### Why?
It is more expected for auth collections to search on email or username.
### How?
Defaults useAsTitle to `username` if loginWithUsername is used, else
`email`. Can still be overridden by setting a custom `admin.useAsTitle`
property.
- Adds missing types, especially the `Where` type. Will be helpful for
people to see that they can type their queries like that
- Mention pnpm first and prefer pnpm > npm > yarn throughout docs
- Add `payload` to function arguments in examples to discourage people
from doing `import payload from 'payload'`
- PNPM => pnpm, NPM => npm
- Fix some typos

Fixes#9830. Continuation of #9755 and #9746. Instead of automatically
appending TLDs to the `admin.preview` and the `livePreview.url` URLs, we
should instead ensure that `req` is passed through these functions, so
that you can have full control over the format of this URL without
Payload imposing any of its own formatting.
Adds the missing tests to the `needs:` dependency array for `all-green`
step in CI so that all-green doesn't pass if these tests fail or are in
progress
```
- build-templates
- tests-types
- tests-type-generation
```
### What?
`@lexical-html` is missing from the `lexical-proxy` exports.
### Why?
To allow `@lexical-html` functionality to be used without needing to
install the package separately.
### How?
Adds `@lexical-html` to the `lexical-proxy` exports.
Fixes#9792
As proposed here
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9782#issuecomment-2522090135
with additional testing of our types we can be more sure that we don't
break them between updates.
This PR already adds types testing for most Local API methods
6beb921c2e/test/types/types.spec.ts
but new tests for types can be easily added, either to that same file or
you can create `types.spec.ts` in any other test folder.
The new test folder uses `strict: true` to ensure our types do not break
with it.

🤖 Automated bump of templates for v3.5.0
Triggered by user: @denolfe
Co-authored-by: github-actions[bot] <github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
### What?
Previously, the create-payload-app install would properly update the env
vars in the new created `.env` file but kept outdated env vars in the
`.env.example` file.
I.e
If selecting a `postgres` DB for the blank or website template:
`.env` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
`.env.example` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`mongodb://127.0.0.1/payload-template-blank-3-0`
### Now
`.env` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
`.env.example` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
### What?
* Exposes to `payload` these functions: `sanitizeSelectParam`,
`sanitizePopulateParam`, `senitizeJoinParams`.
* Refactors `sanitizeSelect` and `sanitizePopulate` to
`sanitizeSelectParam` and `sanitizePopulateParam` for clarity.
* Moves them from `@payloadcms/next` to `payload` as they aren't related
to next.
### Why?
To use these functions externally, for example in custom endpoints.
### What?
Previously, `initCollapsed: true` `array` fields would auto collapse
when typing in their respective inputs while in the create new view.
### Why?
This was due to the fact that we were only checking if `preferences`
existed in `form state` to handle the current state of the array row and
then falling back on the `initCollapsed` prop if `preferences` didn't
exist.
This was a problem because during create - `preferences` do not exist
yet. As a result, the state of the array row would keep falling back to
collapsed if `initCollapsed` was set to `true`.
### How?
To fix this, we now check the actual form state first before falling
back to preferences and then falling back to the initCollapsed prop
value.
Fixes#9775
### What?
Enhanced Serbian translations for the lexical editor have been
implemented. The updates correct inaccuracies in the Serbian Cyrillic
translations and address various errors in the previous versions.
### Why?
- Incorrect use of Latin script in place of Cyrillic.
- Contextual errors in translations.
The runner image `ubuntu-latest` image will be switching from Ubuntu
22.04 to Ubuntu 24.04 as specified in
https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/10636.
> Rollout will begin on December 5th and will complete on January 17th,
2025.
Breaking changes
Ubuntu 24.04 is ready to be the default version for the "ubuntu-latest"
label in GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps.
This PR moves us to explicitly use `ubuntu-24.04` to ensure
compatibility and to allow explicit upgrades in the future.
Adds documentation for the feature introduced with [plugin-search
collection reindexing](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9391).
This also fixes an invalid scss import in one of the examples.
Credit to @rilrom for the invalid css import find!
The join field was not respecting the defaultSort or defaultLimit of the
field configuration.
### Why?
This was never implemented.
### How?
This fix applies these correct limit and sort properties to the query,
first based on the field config and as a fallback, the collection
configuration.
- Improvements to seed speed on the website template
- Update hero on mobile
- Fields are collapsed by default where possible now
- Add rowlabel components for nav items
In addition to requiring fewer files, it supports more nodes. If you
currently initialize a website template and want to use features such as
images or tables, they are not rendered. With this change that happens
automatically.

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

### What?
### Why?
`user.id` was being used as a dependency is callbacks and when the user
was logged out due to inactivity the above error would throw.
### How?
Added optional chaining to the dependency.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9701
### What?
Previously, when defining `localization.locales` like this:
```ts
localization: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: [{ label: { en: 'ESLocale' }, code: 'es' },{ label: { en: 'ESLocale' }, code: 'en' }],
},
```
The title in "copy to locale" modal was displayed incorrectly
```
Copy to locale: Copying from [object Object] to [object Object]
```
### How?
Uses the `getTranslation` function to handle this behavior properly
Removes maxDepth from link fields which can cause issues sometimes
depending on how deep the reference is
Also removes bottom border on website header.
### What?
Write conflict errors can arise when collections have hooks.
### Why?
The copyDataFromLocale local API calls to update were not passsing req
so changes could be made on different transcations.
### How?
Fixed the error by passing `req` and also introduced some perf
optimizations using `depth` and disabling `joins` since that data isn't
needed for this operation.
Adds configuration options to `auth.disableLocalStrategy` to allow
customization of how payload treats an auth enabled collection.
Two new properties have been added to `disableLocalStrategy`:
- `enableFields` Include auth fields on the collection even though the
local strategy is disabled. Useful when you do not want the database or
types to vary depending on the auth configuration used.
- `optionalPassword`: makes the password field not required
### What?
Migrates the `form-builder` example to payload `3.0`.
`Updates`:
- Now has a next app directly along side payload.
- Removes `form-builder/next-app` & `form-builder/next-pages` example
front-ends and only uses new recommended approach (i.e admin panel &
front-end on the same port - `3000`)
### What?
https://payloadcms.com/docs does not document the `payload.auth`
feature.
### Why?
With custom components, there is no explanation as to how you can get
the current user on the server side. It is also something useful to know
for many other scenarios. A Discord user even mentioned today, that they
spent quite some time, trying to figure out how to get the current user,
while on the server.
While I don't think it's the cleanest "place" to document it, I think
its what makes the most sense, given the current state of the
documentation. I tried to follow the existing format as close as
possible. The comments are longer, but I feel the information is
absolutely necessary to provide.
Confirmed that formatting works as expected and there are no errors
parsing the addition:
Fixes#9631
## Fix default retries
By default, if no `retries` property has been set, jobs / tasks should
not be retried. This was not the case previously, as the `maxRetries`
variable was `undefined`, causing jobs to retry endlessly. This PR sets
them to `0` by default.
Additionally, this fixes some undesirable behavior of the workflow
retries property. Workflow retries now act as **maximum**,
workflow-level retries. Only tasks that do not have a retry property set
will inherit the workflow-level retries.
## Fix error messages
Previously, you were able to encounter error messages with undefined
values like these:
Reason is that it was always using `job.workflowSlug` for the error
messages. However, if you queue a task directly, without a workflow,
`job.workflowSlug` is undefined and `job.taskSlug` should be used
instead.
This PR then gets rid of the second undefined value by ensuring that
`maxRetries´ is never undefined
More commit types will now show in the release notes. The full list of
allowable types are the following and will show in order:
```ts
const commitTypesForChangelog = [
'feat',
'fix',
'perf',
'refactor',
'docs',
'style',
'test',
'templates',
'examples',
'build',
'ci',
'chore',
]
```
What?
Fixes issue when on parallel writes in result you can have 0 latest:
true versions.
Why?
There must be always a version with latest: true
How?
Ensures that we always have a version with latest: true by adding a
filter on createdAt < createdVersion.createdAt.
Instead, this ponentially can lead to a situation where we have 2
versions with latest: true, if they were created at the exact same time,
but this shouldn't happen in a real world scenario and it's much less
problematic than not having a version with latest: true.

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

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

### What?
The examples in nestedDocs and formBuilder plugins were referencing the
plugins incorrectly.
### Why?
To prevent confusion for readers.
### How?
Changes to `docs/plugins/form-builder.mdx` and
`docs/plugins/nested-docs.mdx`.
We were sending unrendered `PayloadComponent`s to the client, which is a
remnant of old betas where those were actually rendered.
There is no point sending them to the client as they are useless there
and cannot be rendered without the server-only importMap. Additionally,
this could have potentially caused server-only modules to be sent to the
client (e.g. if serverProps was used), which would have lead to a
webpack error.
The types were also incorrect, as admin.dependencies on the ClientConfig
did not contain the React nodes.
### What?
When the document is saved the formState was not being reset from the
server.
### Why?
getFormState was not being called onSuccess of the form submission
### How?
The `Form` onSuccess function now allows for an optional return type of
`FormState` if the functions returns formState then we check to see if
that differs from the current formState on the client. If it does then
we dispatch the `REPLACE_STATE` action with the newState.

Closes#8653.
Originally this PR was for making the `IndentFeature` opt-in instead of
opt-out, which would have been a breaking change. After some discussion
it was determined it would be better if we could keep the
`IndentFeature` by default and instead come up with a custom escape key
solution to prevent keyboard users from becoming trapped in the editor.
These changes are my interpretation of how we can solve this problem in
a way that feels natural for a keyboard user. When a keyboard user
becomes trapped, the usual approach is to press the escape key (e.g.
modals) to be able to leave the current context and continue navigating.
These changes allow that to happen while minimising the cognitive load
by not needing to remember whether the `IndentFeature` is toggled on or
off.
I've also ensured the `IndentFeature` can actually be turned off if
consciously removed from the lexical editor features (previously it was
still enabled even if it was removed).
Ideally this should be handled on the lexical side in the
`TabIndentationPlugin` itself (I will begin to look into the feasibility
of this), but for now this should be suitable to ensure the experience
for keyboard users isn't completely blocked (there are a number of other
improvements that could be made but I will create more specific issues
for those).
Open to discussion and amendments. Once we're aligned on the approach
I'm happy to implement tests as needed.

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

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

this one!

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

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

In an effort to keep the Examples Directory as easy to navigate as
possible, and to keep the Payload Monorepo only as verbose as it needs
to be, we need to remove all alternatives from the Examples Directory.
This includes setups that interact with Payload from a standalone
server, keeping only the Payload recommended "combined" Next.js +
Payload setups.
### What?
Migrates the `live-preview` example to payload `3.0`.
`Updates`:
- `live-preview/payload` now has a next app directly along side payload.
- Removes `live-preview/next-app` & `live-preview/next-pages` example
front-ends and only uses new recommended approach (i.e admin panel &
front-end on the same port - `3000`)
If you had a lot of fields and collections, createClientConfig would be
extremely slow, as it was copying a lot of memory. In my test config
with a lot of fields and collections, it took 4 seconds(!!).
And not only that, it also ran between every single page navigation.
This PR significantly speeds up the createClientConfig function. In my
test config, its execution speed went from 4 seconds to 50 ms.
Additionally, createClientConfig is now properly cached in both dev &
prod. It no longer runs between every single page navigation. Even if
you trigger a full page reload, createClientConfig will be cached and
not run again. Despite that, HMR remains fully-functional.
This will make payload feel noticeably faster for large configs -
especially if it contains a lot of richtext fields, as it was previously
deep-copying the relatively large richText editor configs over and over
again.
## Before - 40 sec navigation speed

## After - 1 sec navigation speed

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

Deprecates `react-animate-height` in favor of native CSS, specifically
the `interpolate-size: allow-keywords;` property which can be used to
animate to `height: auto`—the primary reason this package exists. This
is one less dependency in our `node_modules`. Tried to replicate the
current DOM structure, class names, and API of `react-animate-height`
for best compatibility.
Note that this CSS property is experimental BUT this PR includes a patch
for browsers without native support. Once full support is reached, the
patch can be safely removed.

To implement locale-specific access control, you can use the `req.locale` argument in your access control functions. This argument allows you to evaluate the current locale of the request and determine access permissions accordingly.
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. A field with `virtual: true` cannot be 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](#custom-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](#custom-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). |
| **`baseListFilter`** | You can define a default base filter for this collection's List view, which will be merged into any filters that the user performs. |
### Custom Components
Collections can set their own [Custom Components](./components) which only apply to [Collection](../configuration/collections)-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](./overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
To override Collection Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
| **`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 type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
preview: (doc, { locale }) => {
if (doc?.slug) {
return `/${doc.slug}?locale=${locale}`
}
return null
},
// highlight-end
},
}
```
The preview 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 type { 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.
The Payload [Admin Panel](./overview) is designed to be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow for easy customization and full control over the UI. In order for Payload to support this level of customization, Payload provides a pattern for you to supply your own React components through your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview).
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end. Custom Components are available for nearly every part of the Admin Panel for extreme granularity and control.
<Banner type="success">
<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>
There are four main types of Custom Components in Payload:
To swap in your own Custom Component, first consult the list of available components, determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-components) accordingly.
## Defining Custom Components
As Payload compiles the Admin Panel, it checks your config for Custom Components. When detected, Payload either replaces its own default component with yours, or if none exists by default, renders yours outright. While are many places where Custom Components are supported in Payload, each is defined in the same way using [Component Paths](#component-paths).
To add a Custom Component, point to its file path in your Payload Config:
All Custom Components can be either Server Components or Client Components, depending on the presence of the `use client` directive at the top of the file.
</Banner>
### Component Paths
In order to ensure the Payload Config is fully Node.js compatible and as lightweight as possible, components are not directly imported into your config. Instead, they are identified by their file path for the Admin Panel to resolve on its own.
Component Paths, by default, are relative to your project's base directory. This is either your current working directory, or the directory specified in `config.admin.baseDir`. To simplify Component Paths, you can also configure the base directory using the `admin.importMap.baseDir` property.
Components using named exports are identified either by appending `#` followed by the export name, or using the `exportName` property. If the component is the default export, this can be omitted.
| **`clientProps`** | Props to be passed to the Custom Components if it's a Client Component. [More details](#custom-props). |
| **`exportName`** | Instead of declaring named exports using `#` in the component path, you can also omit them from `path` and pass them in here. |
| **`path`** | File path to the Custom Component. Named exports can be appended to the end of the path, separated by a `#`. |
| **`serverProps`** | Props to be passed to the Custom Component if it's a Server Component. [More details](#custom-props). |
For more details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components).
### Import Map
In order for Payload to make use of [Component Paths](#component-paths), an "Import Map" is automatically generated at `app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js`. This file contains every Custom Component in your config, keyed to their respective paths. When Payload needs to lookup a component, it uses this file to find the correct import.
The Import Map is automatically regenerated at startup and whenever Hot Module Replacement (HMR) runs, or you can run `payload generate:importmap` to manually regenerate it.
#### Custom Imports
If needed, custom items can be appended onto the Import Map. This is mostly only relevant for plugin authors who need to add a custom import that is not referenced in a known location.
To add a custom import to the Import Map, use the `admin.dependencies` property in your [Payload Config](../getting-started/overview):
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
// ...
dependencies: {
myTestComponent: { // myTestComponent is the key - can be anything
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end, among other things.
### Default Props
To make building Custom Components as easy as possible, Payload automatically provides common props, such as the [`payload`](../local-api/overview) class and the [`i18n`](../configuration/i18n) object. This means that when building Custom Components within the Admin Panel, you do not have to get these yourself.
Here is an example:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
const MyServerComponent = async ({
payload // highlight-line
}) => {
const page = await payload.findByID({
collection: 'pages',
id: '123',
})
return (
<p>{page.title}</p>
)
}
```
Each Custom Component receives the following props by default:
| `payload` | The [Payload](../local-api/overview) class. |
| `i18n` | The [i18n](../configuration/i18n) object. |
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Reminder:</strong>
All Custom Components also receive various other props that are specific component being rendered. See [Root Components](#root-components), [Collection Components](./collections#custom-components), [Global Components](./globals#custom-components), or [Field Components](./fields#custom-components) for a complete list of all default props per component.
</Banner>
### Custom Props
To pass in custom props from the config, you can use either the `clientProps` or `serverProps` properties depending on whether your prop is [serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types), and whether your component is a Server or Client Component.
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:
All Custom Components can support multiple languages to be consistent with Payload's [Internationalization](../configuration/i18n). To do this, first add your translation resources to the [I18n Config](../configuration/i18n).
From any Server Component, you can translate resources using the `getTranslation` function from `@payloadcms/translations`. All Server Components automatically receive the `i18n` object as a prop by default.
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { getTranslation } from '@payloadcms/translations'
export default async function MyServerComponent({ i18n }) {
See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
</Banner>
### Getting the Current Locale
All [Custom Views](./views) can support multiple locales to be consistent with Payload's [Localization](../configuration/localization). They automatically receive the `locale` object as a prop by default. This can be used to scope API requests, etc.:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
export default async function MyServerComponent({ payload, locale }) {
const localizedPage = await payload.findByID({
collection: 'pages',
id: '123',
locale,
})
return (
<p>{localizedPage.title}</p>
)
}
```
The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useLocale` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import { useLocale } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
const locale = useLocale() // highlight-line
const trans = {
en: 'Hello',
es: 'Hola',
}
return (
<span>{trans[locale.code]}</span>
)
}
```
<Banner type="success">
See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
</Banner>
### Using Hooks
To make it easier to [build your Custom Components](#building-custom-components), you can use [Payload's built-in React Hooks](./hooks) in any Client Component. For example, you might want to interact with one of Payload's many React Contexts. To do this, you can one of the many hooks available depending on your needs.
See the [Hooks](./hooks) documentation for a full list of available hooks.
</Banner>
### Adding Styles
Payload has a robust [CSS Library](./customizing-css) that you can use to style your Custom Components similarly to Payload's built-in styling. This will ensure that your Custom Components match the existing design system, and so that they automatically adapt to any theme changes that might occur.
To apply custom styles, simply import your own `.css` or `.scss` file into your Custom Component:
```tsx
import './index.scss'
export const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
return (
<div className="my-component">
My Custom Component
</div>
)
}
```
Then to colorize your Custom Component's background, for example, you can use the following CSS:
```scss
.my-component {
background-color: var(--theme-elevation-500);
}
```
Payload also exports its [SCSS](https://sass-lang.com) library for reuse which includes mixins, etc. To use this, simply import it as follows into your `.scss` file:
```scss
@import '~payload/scss';
.my-component {
@include mid-break {
background-color: var(--theme-elevation-900);
}
}
```
<Banner type="success">
<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).
</Banner>
## Root Components
Root Components are those that effect the [Admin Panel](./overview) generally, such as the logo or the main nav.
To override Root Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Payload Config](../getting-started/overview):
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
components: {
// ...
},
// highlight-end
},
})
```

### 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):
<strong>Reminder:</strong>React Context exists only within Client Components. This means they must include the `use client` directive at the top of their files and cannot contain server-only code. To use a Server Component here, simply _wrap_ your Client Component with it.

## 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. Defaults to `true` for UI fields. |
| **`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 Descriptions
Field Descriptions are used to provide additional information to the editor about a field, such as special instructions. Their placement varies from field to field, but typically are displayed with subtle style differences beneath the field inputs.
A description can be configured in three ways:
- As a string.
- As a function which returns a string. [More details](#description-functions).
- As a React component. [More details](#description).
To add a Custom Description to a field, use the `admin.description` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
To replace the Field Description with a [Custom Component](./components), use the `admin.components.Description` property. [More details](#description).
</Banner>
#### Description Functions
Custom Descriptions can also be defined as a function. Description Functions are executed on the server and can be used to format simple descriptions based on the user's current [Locale](../configuration/localization).
To add a Description Function to a field, set the `admin.description` property to a _function_ in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
| **`t`** | The `t` function used to internationalize the Admin Panel. [More details](../configuration/i18n) |
<Banner type="info">
<strong>Note:</strong>
If you need to subscribe to live updates within your form, use a Description Component instead. [More details](#description).
</Banner>
## Conditional Logic
You can show and hide fields based on what other fields are doing by utilizing conditional logic on a field by field basis. The `condition` property on a field's admin config accepts a function which takes three arguments:
- `data` - the entire document's data that is currently being edited
- `siblingData` - only the fields that are direct siblings to the field with the condition
- `{ user }` - the final argument is an object containing the currently authenticated user
The `condition` function should return a boolean that will control if the field should be displayed or not.
**Example:**
```ts
{
fields: [
{
name: 'enableGreeting',
type: 'checkbox',
defaultValue: false,
},
{
name: 'greeting',
type: 'text',
admin: {
// highlight-start
condition: (data, siblingData, { user }) => {
if (data.enableGreeting) {
return true
} else {
return false
}
},
// highlight-end
},
},
]
}
```
## Custom Components
Within the [Admin Panel](./overview), fields are represented in three distinct places:
- [Field](#field) - The actual form field rendered in the Edit View.
- [Cell](#cell) - The table cell component rendered in the List View.
- [Filter](#filter) - The filter component rendered in the List View.
To swap in Field Components with your own, use the `admin.components` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
_For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components)._
<Banner type="warning">
Instead of replacing the entire Field Component, you can alternately replace or slot-in only specific parts by using the [`Label`](#label), [`Error`](#error), [`beforeInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput), and [`afterInput`](#afterinput-and-beforinput) properties.
</Banner>
#### Default Props
All Field Components receive the following props by default:
| **`docPreferences`** | An object that contains the [Preferences](./preferences) for the document.
| **`field`** | In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. Server Components will also receive the sanitized field config through the`clientField` prop (see below). |
| **`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. |
| **`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. `posts.myGroup.myArray.myField`. |
| **`indexPath`** | A hyphen-notated string representing the path to the field _within the nearest named ancestor field_, i.e. `0-0` |
In addition to the above props, all Server Components will also receive the following props:
For a complete list of all available React hooks, see the [Payload React Hooks](./hooks) documentation. For additional help, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
</Banner>
#### TypeScript
When building Custom Field Components, you can import the client field props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to prepend the field type onto the target type, i.e. `TextFieldClientComponent`:
```tsx
import type {

### Cell
The Cell Component is rendered in the table of the List View. It represents the value of the field when displayed in a table cell.
To swap in your own Cell Component, use the `admin.components.Cell` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
| **`link`** | A boolean representing whether this cell should be wrapped in a link. |
| **`onClick`** | A function that is called when the cell is clicked. |
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
### Filter
The Filter Component is the actual input element rendered within the "Filter By" dropdown of the List View used to represent this field when building filters.
To swap in your own Filter Component, use the `admin.components.Filter` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
All Custom Filter Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
### Label
The Label Component is rendered anywhere a field needs to be represented by a label. This is typically used in the Edit View, but can also be used in the List View and elsewhere.
To swap in your own Label Component, use the `admin.components.Label` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
All Custom Label Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).
#### TypeScript
When building Custom Label Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Label Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and server/client environment. The convention is to append `LabelServerComponent` or `LabelClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent`.
```tsx
import type {
TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### Description
Alternatively to the [Description Property](#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 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'
All Custom Description Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).

```tsx
import type {
TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
// And so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### Error
The Error Component is rendered when a field fails validation. It is typically displayed beneath the field input in a visually-compelling style.
To swap in your own Error Component, use the `admin.components.Error` property in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
All Error Components receive the [Default Field Component Props](#field).
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](./components#building-custom-components).

import type {
TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
// And so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### afterInput and beforeInput
With these properties you can add multiple components _before_ and _after_ the input element, as their name suggests. This is useful when you need to render additional elements alongside the field without replacing the entire field component.
To add components before and after the input element, use the `admin.components.beforeInput` and `admin.components.afterInput` properties in your [Field Config](../fields/overview):
```ts
import type { SanitizedCollectionConfig } from 'payload'
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](#custom-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). |
### Custom Components
Globals can set their own [Custom Components](./components) which only apply to [Global](../configuration/globals)-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](./overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
To override Global Components, use the `admin.components` property in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```ts
import type { SanitizedGlobalConfig } from 'payload'
| **`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>
### 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).
Payload provides a variety of powerful [React Hooks](https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/hooks) that can be used within your own [Custom Components](./components), such as [Custom Fields](./fields). With them, you can interface with Payload itself to build just about any type of complex customization you can think of.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Reminder:</strong>
All Custom Components are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. Hooks, on the other hand, are only available in client-side environments. To use hooks, [ensure your component is a client component](./components#client-components).
</Banner>
## useField
The `useField` hook is used internally within all field components. It manages sending and receiving a field's state from its parent form. When you build a [Custom Field Component](./fields), you will be responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` to and from the form yourself.
To do so, import the `useField` hook as follows:
```tsx
'use client'
import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
| `path` | If you do not provide a `path`, `name` will be used instead. This is the path to the field in the form data. |
| `validate` | A validation function executed client-side _before_ submitting the form to the server. Different than [Field-level Validation](../fields/overview#validation) which runs strictly on the server. |
| `disableFormData` | If `true`, the field will not be included in the form data when the form is submitted. |
| `hasRows` | If `true`, the field will be treated as a field with rows. This is useful for fields like `array` and `blocks`. |
There are times when a custom field component needs to have access to data from other fields, and you have a few options to do so. The `useFormFields` hook is a powerful and highly performant way to retrieve a form's field state, as well as to retrieve the `dispatchFields` method, which can be helpful for setting other fields' form states from anywhere within a form.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>This hook is great for retrieving only certain fields from form state</strong> because it
ensures that it will only cause a rerender when the items that you ask for change.
</Banner>
Thanks to the awesome package [`use-context-selector`](https://github.com/dai-shi/use-context-selector), you can retrieve a specific field's state easily. This is ideal because you can ensure you have an up-to-date field state, and your component will only re-render when _that field's state_ changes.
You can pass a Redux-like selector into the hook, which will ensure that you retrieve only the field that you want. The selector takes an argument with type of `[fields: Fields, dispatch: React.Dispatch<Action>]]`.
```tsx
'use client'
import { useFormFields } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// Get only the `amount` field state, and only cause a rerender when that field changes
return <span>The fee is ${(amount.value * feePercentage.value) / 100}</span>
}
}
```
## useAllFormFields
**To retrieve more than one field**, you can use the `useAllFormFields` hook. Your component will re-render when _any_ field changes, so use this hook only if you absolutely need to. Unlike the `useFormFields` hook, this hook does not accept a "selector", and it always returns an array with type of `[fields: Fields, dispatch: React.Dispatch<Action>]]`.
You can do lots of powerful stuff by retrieving the full form state, like using built-in helper functions to reduce field state to values only, or to retrieve sibling data by path.
```tsx
'use client'
import { useAllFormFields } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import { reduceFieldsToValues, getSiblingData } from 'payload/shared'
const ExampleComponent: React.FC = () => {
// the `fields` const will be equal to all fields' state,
// and the `dispatchFields` method is usable to send field state up to the form
If you are building a Custom Component, then you should use `setValue` which is returned from the `useField` hook to programmatically set your field's value. But if you're looking to update _another_ field's value, you can use `dispatchFields` returned from `useFormFields`.
You can send the following actions to the `dispatchFields` function.
| **`ADD_ROW`** | Adds a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`DUPLICATE_ROW`** | Duplicates a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`MODIFY_CONDITION`** | Updates a field's conditional logic result (true / false) |
| **`MOVE_ROW`** | Moves a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`REMOVE`** | Removes a field from form state |
| **`REMOVE_ROW`** | Removes a row of data from form state (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`REPLACE_STATE`** | Completely replaces form state |
| **`UPDATE`** | Update any property of a specific field's state |
To see types for each action supported within the `dispatchFields` hook, check out the Form types [here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/admin/components/forms/Form/types.ts).
## useForm
The `useForm` hook can be used to interact with the form itself, and sends back many methods that can be used to reactively fetch form state without causing rerenders within your components each time a field is changed. This is useful if you have action-based callbacks that your components fire, and need to interact with form state _based on a user action_.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Warning:</strong>
<br />
This hook is optimized to avoid causing rerenders when fields change, and as such, its `fields`
property will be out of date. You should only leverage this hook if you need to perform actions
against the form in response to your users' actions. Do not rely on its returned "fields" as being
up-to-date. They will be removed from this hook's response in an upcoming version.
</Banner>
The `useForm` hook returns an object with the following properties:
<TableWithDrawers
columns={[
'Action',
'Description',
'Example',
]}
rows={[
[
{
value: <strong><code>fields</code></strong>,
},
{
value: "Deprecated. This property cannot be relied on as up-to-date.",
In any Custom Component you can get the selected locale object with the `useLocale` hook. `useLocale` gives you the full locale object, consisting of a `label`, `rtl`(right-to-left) property, and then `code`. Here is a simple example:
```tsx
'use client'
import { useLocale } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const locale = useLocale()
// highlight-end
const trans = {
en: 'Hello',
es: 'Hola',
}
return <span> {trans[locale.code]} </span>
}
```
## useAuth
Useful to retrieve info about the currently logged in user as well as methods for interacting with it. It sends back an object with the following properties:
| **`logOut`** | A method to log out the currently logged in user |
| **`refreshCookie`** | A method to trigger the silent refreshing of a user's auth token |
| **`setToken`** | Set the token of the user, to be decoded and used to reset the user and token in memory |
| **`token`** | The logged in user's token (useful for creating preview links, etc.) |
| **`refreshPermissions`** | Load new permissions (useful when content that effects permissions has been changed) |
| **`permissions`** | The permissions of the current user |
```tsx
'use client'
import { useAuth } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { User } from '../payload-types.ts'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const { user } = useAuth<User>()
// highlight-end
return <span>Hi, {user.email}!</span>
}
```
## useConfig
Used to retrieve the Payload [Client Config](./components#accessing-the-payload-config).
```tsx
'use client'
import { useConfig } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const { config } = useConfig()
// highlight-end
return <span>{config.serverURL}</span>
}
```
## useEditDepth
Sends back how many editing levels "deep" the current component is. Edit depth is relevant while adding new documents / editing documents in modal windows and other cases.
```tsx
'use client'
import { useEditDepth } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const editDepth = useEditDepth()
// highlight-end
return <span>My component is {editDepth} levels deep</span>
}
```
## usePreferences
Returns methods to set and get user preferences. More info can be found [here](https://payloadcms.com/docs/admin/preferences).
## useTheme
Returns the currently selected theme (`light`, `dark` or `auto`), a set function to update it and a boolean `autoMode`, used to determine if the theme value should be set automatically based on the user's device preferences.
```tsx
'use client'
import { useTheme } from '@payloadcms/ui'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const { autoMode, setTheme, theme } = useTheme()
// highlight-end
return (

The current theme is {theme} and autoMode is {autoMode}
The `useDocumentEvents` hook provides a way of subscribing to cross-document events, such as updates made to nested documents within a drawer. This hook will report document events that are outside the scope of the document currently being edited. This hook provides the following:
| **`mostRecentUpdate`** | An object containing the most recently updated document. It contains the `entitySlug`, `id` (if collection), and `updatedAt` properties |
| **`reportUpdate`** | A method used to report updates to documents. It accepts the same arguments as the `mostRecentUpdate` property. |

## Light and Dark Modes
Users in the Admin Panel have the ability to choose between light mode and dark mode for their editing experience. Users can select their preferred theme from their account page. Once selected, it is saved to their user's preferences and persisted across sessions and devices. If no theme was selected, the Admin Panel will automatically detect the operation system's theme and use that as the default.
## Timezones
The `admin.timezones` configuration allows you to configure timezone settings for the Admin Panel. You can customise the available list of timezones and in the future configure the default timezone for the Admin Panel and for all users.
| `supportedTimezones` | An array of label/value options for selectable timezones where the value is the IANA name eg. `America/Detroit` |
| `defaultTimezone` | The `value` of the default selected timezone. eg. `America/Los_Angeles` |

Preview is a feature that allows you to generate a direct link to your front-end application. When enabled, a "preview" button will appear on the Edit View within the [Admin Panel](./overview) with an href pointing to the URL you provide. This will provide your editors with a quick way of navigating to the front-end application where that Document's data is represented. Otherwise, they'd have to determine that URL themselves which is not always straightforward especially in complex apps.
The Preview feature can also be used to achieve something known as "Draft Preview". With Draft Preview, you can navigate to your front-end application and enter "draft mode", where your queries are modified to fetch draft content instead of published content. This is useful for seeing how your content will look before being published. [More details](#draft-preview).
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** Preview is different than [Live Preview](../live-preview/overview).
Live Preview loads your app within an iframe and renders it in the Admin Panel
allowing you to see changes in real-time. Preview, on the other hand, allows
you to generate a direct link to your front-end application.
</Banner>
To add Preview, pass a function to the `admin.preview` property in any [Collection Config](../configuration/collections#admin-options) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals#admin-options):
The `preview` function resolves to a string that points to your front-end application with additional URL parameters. This can be an absolute URL or a relative path, and can run async if needed.
The following arguments are provided to the `preview` function:
| **`locale`** | The current locale of the Document being edited. |
| **`req`** | The Payload Request object. |
| **`token`** | The JWT token of the currently authenticated in user. |
If your application requires a fully qualified URL, such as within deploying to Vercel Preview Deployments, you can use the `req` property to build this URL:
The Preview feature can be used to achieve "Draft Preview". After clicking the preview button from the Admin Panel, you can enter into "draft mode" within your front-end application. This will allow you to adjust your page queries to include the `draft: true` param. When this param is present on the request, Payload will send back a draft document as opposed to a published one based on the document's `_status` field.
To enter draft mode, the URL provided to the `preview` function can point to a custom endpoint in your front-end application that sets a cookie or session variable to indicate that draft mode is enabled. This is framework specific, so the mechanisms here very from framework to framework although the underlying concept is the same.
### Next.js
If you're using Next.js, you can do the following code to enter [Draft Mode](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/configuring/draft-mode).
#### Step 1: Format the Preview URL
First, format your `admin.preview` function to point to a custom endpoint that you'll open on your front-end. This URL should include a few key query search params:
Views are the individual pages that make up the [Admin Panel](./overview), such as the Dashboard, List, and Edit views. One of the most powerful ways to customize the Admin Panel is to create Custom Views. These are [Custom Components](./components) that can either replace built-in views or can be entirely new.
There are four types of views within the Admin Panel:
- [Root Views](#root-views)
- [Collection Views](#collection-views)
- [Global Views](#global-views)
- [Document Views](#document-views)
To swap in your own Custom View, first consult the list of available components, determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-views) accordingly.
## Root Views
Root Views are the main views of the [Admin Panel](./overview). These are views that are scoped directly under the `/admin` route, such as the Dashboard or Account views.
To swap Root Views with your own, or to [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-root-views), use the `admin.components.views` property of your root [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
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'
| **`Component`** \* | Pass in the component path that should be rendered when a user navigates to this route. |
| **`path`** \* | Any valid URL path or array of paths that [`path-to-regexp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/path-to-regex) understands. |
| **`exact`** | Boolean. When true, will only match if the path matches the `usePathname()` exactly. |
| **`strict`** | When true, a path that has a trailing slash will only match a `location.pathname` with a trailing slash. This has no effect when there are additional URL segments in the pathname. |
| **`sensitive`** | When true, will match if the path is case sensitive.|
| **`meta`** | Page metadata overrides to apply to this view within the Admin Panel. [More details](./metadata). |
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
### Adding New Views
To add a _new_ views to the [Admin Panel](./overview), simply add your own key to the `views` object with at least a `path` and `Component` property. For example:
The above example shows how to add a new [Root View](#root-views), but the pattern is the same for [Collection Views](#collection-views), [Global Views](#global-views), and [Document Views](#document-views). For help on how to build your own Custom Views, see [Building Custom Views](#building-custom-views).
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
Routes are cascading, so unless explicitly given the `exact` property, they will
match on URLs that simply _start_ with the route's path. This is helpful when creating catch-all
routes in your application. Alternatively, define your nested route _before_ your parent
route.

All Document Views keep their overall structure across navigation changes, such as their title and tabs, and replace only the content below.
To swap out Document Views with your own, or to [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-document-views), use the `admin.components.views.Edit[key]` property in your [Collection Config](../collections/overview) or [Global Config](../globals/overview):

It can be found on the user document, as a hidden `_verificationToken` field. If you'd like to retrieve this token, you can use the Local API's `find` or `findByID` methods, setting `showHiddenFields: true`.
**Note:** if you do not have a `config.serverURL` set, Payload will attempt to create one for you if the user was created via REST or GraphQL by looking at the incoming `req`. But this is not supported if you are creating the user via the Local API's `payload.create()` method. If this applies to you, and you do not have a `serverURL` set, you may want to override your `verify.generateEmailHTML` function to provide a full URL to link the user to a proper verification page.
## Unlock
If a user locks themselves out and you wish to deliberately unlock them, you can utilize the Unlock operation. The [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) features an Unlock control automatically for all collections that feature max login attempts, but you can programmatically unlock users as well by using the Unlock operation.

### Admin Options
## Admin Options
You can customize the way that the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) behaves on a Collection-by-Collection basis. To learn more, go to the [Collection Admin Options](../admin/collections) documentation.
The behavior of Collections within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) can be fully customized to fit the needs of your application. This includes grouping or hiding their navigation links, adding [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview), selecting which fields to display in the List View, and more.
To configure Admin Options for Collections, use the `admin` property in your Collection Config:
| `group` | Text or localization object used to group Collection and Global links in the admin navigation. Set to `false` to hide the link from the navigation while keeping its routes accessible. |
| `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. A field with `virtual: true` cannot be 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](#custom-components). |
| `defaultColumns` | Array of field names that correspond to which columns to show by default in this Collection's List View. |
| `disableCopyToLocale` | Disables the "Copy to Locale" button while editing documents within this Collection. Only applicable when localization is enabled. |
| `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](../admin/metadata). |
| `preview` | Function to generate preview URLs within the Admin Panel that can point to your app. [More details](../admin/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](#custom-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). |
| `baseListFilter` | You can define a default base filter for this collection's List view, which will be merged into any filters that the user performs. |
### Custom Components
Collections can set their own [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview) which only apply to Collection-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
To override Collection Components, use the `admin.components` property in your Collection Config:
| `afterList` | An array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List View. [More details](../custom-components/list-view#afterlist). |
| `afterListTable` | An array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List View's table. [More details](../custom-components/list-view#afterlisttable). |
| `beforeList` | An array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List View. [More details](../custom-components/list-view#beforelist). |
| `beforeListTable` | An array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List View's table. [More details](../custom-components/list-view#beforelisttable). |
| `listMenuItems` | An array of components to render within a menu next to the List Controls (after the Columns and Filters options) |
| `Description` | A component to render below the Collection label in the List View. An alternative to the `admin.description` property. [More details](../custom-components/list-view#description). |
| `edit` | Override specific components within the Edit View. [More details](#edit-view-options). |
| `views` | Override or create new views within the Admin Panel. [More details](../custom-components/custom-views). |
| `SaveButton` | Replace the default Save Button within the Edit View. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be disabled. [More details](../custom-components/edit-view#save-button). |
| `SaveDraftButton` | Replace the default Save Draft Button within the Edit View. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. [More details](../custom-components/edit-view#save-draft-button). |
| `PublishButton` | Replace the default Publish Button within the Edit View. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be enabled. [More details](../custom-components/edit-view#publish-button). |

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:
| `defaultLimit` | Integer that specifies the default per-page limit that should be used. Defaults to 10. |
| `limits` | Provide an array of integers to use as per-page options for admins to choose from in the List View. |
### List Searchable Fields
In the List View, there is a "search" box that allows you to quickly find a document through a simple text search. By default, it searches on the ID field. If defined, the `admin.useAsTitle` field is used. Or, you can explicitly define which fields to search based on the needs of your application.
To define which fields should be searched, use the `admin.listSearchableFields` property in your Collection Config:
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
listSearchableFields: ['title', 'slug'],
// highlight-end
},
}
```

**Tip:** If you are adding `listSearchableFields`, make sure you index each of
these fields so your admin queries can remain performant.

## GraphQL
You can completely disable GraphQL for this collection by passing `graphQL: false` to your collection config. This will completely disable all queries, mutations, and types from appearing in your GraphQL schema.
You can also pass an object to the collection's `graphQL` property, which allows you to define the following properties:
For security and safety reasons, the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) does **not** include Environment Variables in its _client-side_ bundle by default. But, Next.js provides a mechanism to expose Environment Variables to the client-side bundle when needed.
If you are building a [Custom Component](../admin/components) and need to access Environment Variables from the client-side, you can do so by prefixing them with `NEXT_PUBLIC_`.

### Admin Options
## Admin Options
You can customize the way that the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) behaves on a Global-by-Global basis. To learn more, go to the [Global Admin Options](../admin/globals) documentation.
The behavior of Globals within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) can be fully customized to fit the needs of your application. This includes grouping or hiding their navigation links, adding [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview), setting page metadata, and more.
To configure Admin Options for Globals, use the `admin` property in your Global Config:
| `group` | Text or localization object used to group Collection and Global links in the admin navigation. Set to `false` to hide the link from the navigation while keeping its routes accessible. |
| `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](#custom-components). |
| `preview` | Function to generate a preview URL within the Admin Panel for this Global that can point to your app. [More details](../admin/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](../admin/metadata). |
### Custom Components
Globals can set their own [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview) which only apply to Global-specific UI within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). This includes elements such as the Save Button, or entire layouts such as the Edit View.
To override Global Components, use the `admin.components` property in your Global Config:
```ts
import type { SanitizedGlobalConfig } from 'payload'
| `SaveButton` | Replace the default Save Button with a Custom Component. [Drafts](../versions/drafts) must be disabled. [More details](../custom-components/edit-view#save-button). |

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

Payload localization works on a field-by-field basis. As you can nest fields within other fields, you could potentially nest a localized field within a localized field—but this would be redundant and unnecessary. There would be no reason to define a localized field within a localized parent field, given that the entire data structure from the parent field onward would be localized.
By default, Payload will remove the `localized: true` property from sub-fields if a parent field is localized. Set this compatibility flag to `true` only if you have an existing Payload MongoDB database from pre-3.0, and you have nested localized fields that you would like to maintain without migrating.
## Custom bin scripts
Using the `bin` configuration property, you can inject your own scripts to `npx payload`.
Example for `pnpm payload seed`:
Step 1: create `seed.ts` file in the same folder with `payload.config.ts` with:
```ts
import type { SanitizedConfig } from 'payload'
import payload from 'payload'
// Script must define a "script" function export that accepts the sanitized config
As you add more and more [Custom Components](./overview) to your [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), you may find it helpful to add additional [React Context](https://react.dev/learn/scaling-up-with-reducer-and-context)(s) to your app. Payload allows you to inject your own context providers where you can export your own custom hooks, etc.
To add a Custom Provider, use the `admin.components.providers` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
Views are the individual pages that make up the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), such as the Dashboard, [List View](./list-view), and [Edit View](./edit-view). One of the most powerful ways to customize the Admin Panel is to create Custom Views. These are [Custom Components](./overview) that can either replace built-in views or be entirely new.
There are four types of views within the Admin Panel:
- [Root Views](#root-views)
- [Collection Views](#collection-views)
- [Global Views](#global-views)
- [Document Views](./document-views)
To swap in your own Custom View, first determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, consult the list of available components, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-views) accordingly.
## Configuration
### Replacing Views
To customize views, use the `admin.components.views` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview). This is an object with keys for each view you want to customize. Each key corresponds to the view you want to customize.
The exact list of available keys depends on the scope of the view you are customizing, depending on whether it's a [Root View](#root-views), [Collection View](#collection-views), or [Global View](#global-views). Regardless of the scope, the principles are the same.
Here is an example of how to swap out a built-in view:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
// highlight-start
dashboard: {
Component: '/path/to/MyCustomDashboard',
},
// highlight-end
},
},
},
})
```
For more granular control, pass a configuration object instead. Payload exposes the following properties for each view:
| `Component` \* | Pass in the component path that should be rendered when a user navigates to this route. |
| `path` \* | Any valid URL path or array of paths that [`path-to-regexp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/path-to-regex) understands. |
| `exact` | Boolean. When true, will only match if the path matches the `usePathname()` exactly. |
| `strict` | When true, a path that has a trailing slash will only match a `location.pathname` with a trailing slash. This has no effect when there are additional URL segments in the pathname. |
| `sensitive` | When true, will match if the path is case sensitive. |
| `meta` | Page metadata overrides to apply to this view within the Admin Panel. [More details](../admin/metadata). |
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
### Adding New Views
To add a _new_ view to the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), simply add your own key to the `views` object. This is true for all view scopes.
New views require at least the `Component` and `path` properties:
**Note:** Routes are cascading, so unless explicitly given the `exact`
property, they will match on URLs that simply _start_ with the route's path.
This is helpful when creating catch-all routes in your application.
Alternatively, define your nested route _before_ your parent route.

## Building Custom Views
Custom Views are simply [Custom Components](./overview) rendered at the page-level. Custom Views can either [replace existing views](#replacing-views) or [add entirely new ones](#adding-new-views). The process is generally the same regardless of the type of view you are customizing.
To understand how to build Custom Views, first review the [Building Custom Components](./overview#building-custom-components) guide. Once you have a Custom Component ready, you can use it as a Custom View.

Here is an example of a Custom View component:
```tsx
import type { AdminViewServerProps } from 'payload'
import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export function MyCustomView(props: AdminViewServerProps) {
return (
<Gutter>
<h1>Custom Default Root View</h1>
<p>This view uses the Default Template.</p>
</Gutter>
)
}
```
<Banner type="success">
**Tip:** For consistent layout and navigation, you may want to wrap your
Custom View with one of the built-in [Template](./overview#templates).
</Banner>
### View Templates
Your Custom Root Views can optionally use one of the templates that Payload provides. The most common of these is the Default Template which provides the basic layout and navigation.
Here is an example of how to use the Default Template in your Custom View:
```tsx
import type { AdminViewServerProps } from 'payload'
import { DefaultTemplate } from '@payloadcms/next/templates'
import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export function MyCustomView({
initPageResult,
params,
searchParams,
}: AdminViewServerProps) {
return (
<DefaultTemplate
i18n={initPageResult.req.i18n}
locale={initPageResult.locale}
params={params}
payload={initPageResult.req.payload}
permissions={initPageResult.permissions}
searchParams={searchParams}
user={initPageResult.req.user || undefined}
visibleEntities={initPageResult.visibleEntities}
>
<Gutter>
<h1>Custom Default Root View</h1>
<p>This view uses the Default Template.</p>
</Gutter>
</DefaultTemplate>
)
}
```
### Securing Custom Views
All Custom Views are public by default. It's up to you to secure your custom views. If your view requires a user to be logged in or to have certain access rights, you should handle that within your view component yourself.
Here is how you might secure a Custom View:
```tsx
import type { AdminViewServerProps } from 'payload'
import { Gutter } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export function MyCustomView({ initPageResult }: AdminViewServerProps) {
const {
req: { user },
} = initPageResult
if (!user) {
return <p>You must be logged in to view this page.</p>
}
return (
<Gutter>
<h1>Custom Default Root View</h1>
<p>This view uses the Default Template.</p>
</Gutter>
)
}
```
## Root Views
Root Views are the main views of the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). These are views that are scoped directly under the `/admin` route, such as the Dashboard or Account views.
To [swap out](#replacing-views) Root Views with your own, or to [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-views), use the `admin.components.views` property at the root of your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
// highlight-start
dashboard: {
Component: '/path/to/Dashboard',
},
// highlight-end
// Other options include:
// - account
// - [key: string]
// See below for more details
},
},
},
})
```
_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](#building-custom-views)._
| `account` | The Account view is used to show the currently logged in user's Account page. |
| `dashboard` | The main landing page of the Admin Panel. |
| `[key]` | Any other key can be used to add a completely new Root View. [More details](#adding-new-views). |
## Collection Views
Collection Views are views that are scoped under the `/collections` route, such as the Collection List and Document Edit views.
To [swap out](#replacing-views) Collection Views with your own, or to [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-views), use the `admin.components.views` property of your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
| `edit` | The Edit View corresponds to a single Document for any given Collection and consists of various nested views. [More details](./document-views). |
| `list` | The List View is used to show a list of Documents for any given Collection. [More details](#list-view). |
| `[key]` | Any other key can be used to add a completely new Collection View. [More details](#adding-new-views). |
_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](#building-custom-views)._
## Global Views
Global Views are views that are scoped under the `/globals` route, such as the Edit View.
To [swap out](#replacing-views) Global Views with your own or [create entirely new ones](#adding-new-views), use the `admin.components.views` property in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```ts
import type { SanitizedGlobalConfig } from 'payload'
Document Views consist of multiple, individual views that together represent any single [Collection](../configuration/collections) or [Global](../configuration/globals) Document. All Document Views and are scoped under the `/collections/:collectionSlug/:id` or the `/globals/:globalSlug` route, respectively.
There are a number of default Document Views, such as the [Edit View](./edit-view) and API View, but you can also create [entirely new views](./custom-views#adding-new-views) as needed. All Document Views share a layout and can be given their own tab-based navigation, if desired.
To customize Document Views, use the `admin.components.views.edit[key]` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
| `root` | The Root View overrides all other nested views and routes. No document controls or tabs are rendered when this key is set. [More details](#document-root). |
| `default` | The Default View is the primary view in which your document is edited. It is rendered within the "Edit" tab. [More details](./edit-view). |
| `versions` | The Versions View is used to navigate the version history of a single document. It is rendered within the "Versions" tab. [More details](../versions/overview). |
| `version` | The Version View is used to edit a single version of a document. It is rendered within the "Version" tab. [More details](../versions/overview). |
| `api` | The API View is used to display the REST API JSON response for a given document. It is rendered within the "API" tab. |
| `livePreview` | The LivePreview view is used to display the Live Preview interface. It is rendered within the "Live Preview" tab. [More details](../live-preview/overview). |
| `[key]` | Any other key can be used to add a completely new Document View. |
_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](./custom-views#building-custom-views)._
### Document Root
The Document Root is mounted on the top-level route for a Document. Setting this property will completely take over the entire Document View layout, including the title, [Document Tabs](#ocument-tabs), _and all other nested Document Views_ including the [Edit View](./edit-view), API View, etc.
When setting a Document Root, you are responsible for rendering all necessary components and controls, as no document controls or tabs would be rendered. To replace only the Edit View precisely, use the `edit.default` key instead.
To override the Document Root, use the `views.edit.root` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
The Edit View is where users interact with individual Collection and Global Documents. This is where they can view, edit, and save their content. the Edit View is keyed under the `default` property in the `views.edit` object.
For more information on customizing the Edit View, see the [Edit View](./edit-view) documentation.
## Document Tabs
Each Document View can be given a tab for navigation, if desired. Tabs are highly configurable, from as simple as changing the label to swapping out the entire component, they can be modified in any way.
To add or customize tabs in the Document View, use the `views.edit.[key].tab` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'my-collection',
admin: {
components: {
views: {
edit: {
myCustomTab: {
Component: '/path/to/MyCustomTab',
path: '/my-custom-tab',
// highlight-start
tab: {
Component: '/path/to/MyCustomTabComponent',
},
// highlight-end
},
anotherCustomTab: {
Component: '/path/to/AnotherCustomView',
path: '/another-custom-view',
// highlight-start
tab: {
label: 'Another Custom View',
href: '/another-custom-view',
},
// highlight-end
},
},
},
},
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** This applies to _both_ Collections _and_ Globals.
| `href` | The URL to navigate to when the tab is clicked. This is optional and defaults to the tab's `path`. |
| `Component` | The component to render in the tab. This can be a Server or Client component. [More details](#tab-components) |
### Tab Components
If changing the label or href is not enough, you can also replace the entire tab component with your own custom component. This can be done by setting the `tab.Component` property to the path of your custom component.
Here is an example of how to scaffold a custom Document Tab:
#### Server Component
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { DocumentTabServerProps } from 'payload'
import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export function MyCustomTabComponent(props: DocumentTabServerProps) {
return (
<Link href="/my-custom-tab">This is a custom Document Tab (Server)</Link>
)
}
```
#### Client Component
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import type { DocumentTabClientProps } from 'payload'
import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export function MyCustomTabComponent(props: DocumentTabClientProps) {
return (
<Link href="/my-custom-tab">This is a custom Document Tab (Client)</Link>
The Edit View is where users interact with individual [Collection](../collections/overview) and [Global](../globals/overview) Documents within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). The Edit View contains the actual form in which submits the data to the server. This is where they can view, edit, and save their content. It contains controls for saving, publishing, and previewing the document, all of which can be customized to a high degree.
The Edit View can be swapped out in its entirety for a Custom View, or it can be injected with a number of Custom Components to add additional functionality or presentational elements without replacing the entire view.
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** The Edit View is one of many [Document Views](./document-views) in
the Payload Admin Panel. Each Document View is responsible for a different
aspect of the interacting with a single Document.
</Banner>
## Custom Edit View
To swap out the entire Edit View with a [Custom View](./custom-views), use the `views.edit.default` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```tsx
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
edit: {
// highlight-start
default: {
Component: '/path/to/MyCustomEditViewComponent',
},
// highlight-end
},
},
},
},
})
```
Here is an example of a custom Edit View:
#### Server Component
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { DocumentViewServerProps } from 'payload'
export function MyCustomServerEditView(props: DocumentViewServerProps) {
return <div>This is a custom Edit View (Server)</div>
}
```
#### Client Component
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import type { DocumentViewClientProps } from 'payload'
export function MyCustomClientEditView(props: DocumentViewClientProps) {
return <div>This is a custom Edit View (Client)</div>
}
```
_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](./custom-views#building-custom-views)._
## Custom Components
In addition to swapping out the entire Edit View with a [Custom View](./custom-views), you can also override individual components. This allows you to customize specific parts of the Edit View without swapping out the entire view.
<Banner type="warning">
**Important:** Collection and Globals are keyed to a different property in the
`admin.components` object have slightly different options. Be sure to use the
correct key for the entity you are working with.
</Banner>
#### Collections
To override Edit View components for a Collection, use the `admin.components.edit` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
| `SaveButton` | A button that saves the current document. [More details](#SaveButton). |
| `SaveDraftButton` | A button that saves the current document as a draft. [More details](#SaveDraftButton). |
| `PublishButton` | A button that publishes the current document. [More details](#PublishButton). |
| `PreviewButton` | A button that previews the current document. [More details](#PreviewButton). |
| `Description` | A description of the Global. [More details](#Description). |
### SaveButton
The `SaveButton` property allows you to render a custom Save Button in the Edit View.
To add a `SaveButton` component, use the `components.edit.SaveButton` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or `components.elements.SaveButton` in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
components: {
edit: {
// highlight-start
SaveButton: '/path/to/MySaveButton',
// highlight-end
},
},
},
}
```
Here's an example of a custom `SaveButton` component:
#### Server Component
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { SaveButton } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { SaveButtonServerProps } from 'payload'
export function MySaveButton(props: SaveButtonServerProps) {
return <SaveButton label="Save" />

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

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

import type { PreviewButtonClientProps } from 'payload'
export function MyPreviewButton(props: PreviewButtonClientProps) {
return <PreviewButton />
}
```
### Description
The `Description` property allows you to render a custom description of the Collection or Global in the Edit View.
To add a `Description` component, use the `components.edit.Description` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections) or `components.elements.Description` in your [Global Config](../configuration/globals):
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
components: {
// highlight-start
Description: '/path/to/MyDescriptionComponent',
// highlight-end
},
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** The `Description` component is shared between the Edit View and the
[List View](./list-view).
</Banner>
Here's an example of a custom `Description` component:
#### Server Component
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { ViewDescriptionServerProps } from 'payload'
export function MyDescriptionComponent(props: ViewDescriptionServerProps) {
return <div>This is a custom description component (Server)</div>
}

'use client'
import React from 'react'
import type { ViewDescriptionClientProps } from 'payload'
export function MyDescriptionComponent(props: ViewDescriptionClientProps) {
return <div>This is a custom description component (Client)</div>
}
```
### Upload
The `Upload` property allows you to render a custom file upload component in the Edit View.
To add an `Upload` component, use the `components.edit.Upload` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
components: {
edit: {
// highlight-start
Upload: '/path/to/MyUploadComponent',
// highlight-end
},
},
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** The Upload component is only available for Collections.
The List View is where users interact with a list of [Collection](../configuration/collections) Documents within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). This is where they can view, sort, filter, and paginate their documents to find exactly what they're looking for. This is also where users can perform bulk operations on multiple documents at once, such as deleting, editing, or publishing many.
The List View can be swapped out in its entirety for a Custom View, or it can be injected with a number of Custom Components to add additional functionality or presentational elements without replacing the entire view.
<Banner type="info">
**Note:** Only [Collections](../configuration/collections) have a List View.
[Globals](../configuration/globals) do not have a List View as they are single
documents.
</Banner>
## Custom List View
To swap out the entire List View with a [Custom View](./custom-views), use the `admin.components.views.list` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
```tsx
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
// highlight-start
list: '/path/to/MyCustomListView',
// highlight-end
},
},
},
})
```
Here is an example of a custom List View:
#### Server Component
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { ListViewServerProps } from 'payload'
import { DefaultListView } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export function MyCustomServerListView(props: ListViewServerProps) {
return <div>This is a custom List View (Server)</div>
}
```
#### Client Component
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import type { ListViewClientProps } from 'payload'
export function MyCustomClientListView(props: ListViewClientProps) {
return <div>This is a custom List View (Client)</div>
}
```
_For details on how to build Custom Views, including all available props, see [Building Custom Views](./custom-views#building-custom-views)._
## Custom Components
In addition to swapping out the entire List View with a [Custom View](./custom-views), you can also override individual components. This allows you to customize specific parts of the List View without swapping out the entire view for your own.
To override List View components for a Collection, use the `admin.components` property in your [Collection Config](../configuration/collections):
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.
The Payload [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) is designed to be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow for easy customization and full control over the UI. In order for Payload to support this level of customization, Payload provides a pattern for you to supply your own React components through your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview).
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end. Custom Components are available for nearly every part of the Admin Panel for extreme granularity and control.
<Banner type="success">
**Note:** Client Components continue to be fully supported. To use Client
Components in your app, simply include the `'use client'` directive. Payload
To swap in your own Custom Component, first determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, consult the list of available components, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-components) accordingly.
## Defining Custom Components
As Payload compiles the Admin Panel, it checks your config for Custom Components. When detected, Payload either replaces its own default component with yours, or if none exists by default, renders yours outright. While there are many places where Custom Components are supported in Payload, each is defined in the same way using [Component Paths](#component-paths).
To add a Custom Component, point to its file path in your Payload Config:
**Note:** All Custom Components can be either Server Components or Client
Components, depending on the presence of the `'use client'` directive at the
top of the file.
</Banner>
### Component Paths
In order to ensure the Payload Config is fully Node.js compatible and as lightweight as possible, components are not directly imported into your config. Instead, they are identified by their file path for the Admin Panel to resolve on its own.
Component Paths, by default, are relative to your project's base directory. This is either your current working directory, or the directory specified in `config.admin.importMap.baseDir`.
Components using named exports are identified either by appending `#` followed by the export name, or using the `exportName` property. If the component is the default export, this can be omitted.
| `clientProps` | Props to be passed to the Custom Components if it's a Client Component. [More details](#custom-props). |
| `exportName` | Instead of declaring named exports using `#` in the component path, you can also omit them from `path` and pass them in here. |
| `path` | File path to the Custom Component. Named exports can be appended to the end of the path, separated by a `#`. |
| `serverProps` | Props to be passed to the Custom Component if it's a Server Component. [More details](#custom-props). |
For details on how to build Custom Components, see [Building Custom Components](#building-custom-components).
### Import Map
In order for Payload to make use of [Component Paths](#component-paths), an "Import Map" is automatically generated at either `src/app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js` or `app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js`. This file contains every Custom Component in your config, keyed to their respective paths. When Payload needs to lookup a component, it uses this file to find the correct import.
The Import Map is automatically regenerated at startup and whenever Hot Module Replacement (HMR) runs, or you can run `payload generate:importmap` to manually regenerate it.
#### Overriding Import Map Location
Using the `config.admin.importMap.importMapFile` property, you can override the location of the import map. This is useful if you want to place the import map in a different location, or if you want to use a custom file name.
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
import path from 'path'
const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
importMap: {
baseDir: path.resolve(dirname, 'src'),
importMapFile: path.resolve(
dirname,
'app',
'(payload)',
'custom-import-map.js',
), // highlight-line
},
},
})
```
#### Custom Imports
If needed, custom items can be appended onto the Import Map. This is mostly only relevant for plugin authors who need to add a custom import that is not referenced in a known location.
To add a custom import to the Import Map, use the `admin.dependencies` property in your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default. This enables the use of the [Local API](../local-api/overview) directly on the front-end, among other things.
### Default Props
To make building Custom Components as easy as possible, Payload automatically provides common props, such as the [`payload`](../local-api/overview) class and the [`i18n`](../configuration/i18n) object. This means that when building Custom Components within the Admin Panel, you do not have to get these yourself.
Here is an example:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { Payload } from 'payload'
async function MyServerComponent({
payload, // highlight-line
}: {
payload: Payload
}) {
const page = await payload.findByID({
collection: 'pages',
id: '123',
})
return <p>{page.title}</p>
}
```
Each Custom Component receives the following props by default:
Components](../configuration/globals#custom-components), or [Field
Components](../fields/overview#custom-components) for a complete list of all
default props per component.
</Banner>
### Custom Props
It is also possible to pass custom props to your Custom Components. To do this, you can use either the `clientProps` or `serverProps` properties depending on whether your prop is [serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types), and whether your component is a Server or Client Component.
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-line
components: {
logout: {
Button: {
path: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent',
clientProps: {
myCustomProp: 'Hello, World!', // highlight-line
},
},
},
},
},
})
```
Here is how your component might receive this prop:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { Link } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export function MyComponent({ myCustomProp }: { myCustomProp: string }) {
All Custom Components in Payload are [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components) by default, however, it is possible to use [Client Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client) by simply adding the `'use client'` directive at the top of your file. Payload will automatically detect and remove all [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) default props before rendering your component.
But, the Payload Config is [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types) by design. It is full of custom validation functions and more. This means that the Payload Config, in its entirety, cannot be passed directly to Client Components.
For this reason, Payload creates a Client Config and passes it into the Config Provider. This is a serializable version of the Payload Config that can be accessed from any Client Component via the [`useConfig`](../admin/react-hooks#useconfig) hook:
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import { useConfig } from '@payloadcms/ui'

Similarly, all [Field Components](../fields/overview#custom-components) automatically receive their respective Field Config through props.
Within Server Components, this prop is named `field`:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
All Custom Components can support language translations to be consistent with Payload's [I18n](../configuration/i18n). This will allow your Custom Components to display the correct language based on the user's preferences.
To do this, first add your translation resources to the [I18n Config](../configuration/i18n). Then from any Server Component, you can translate resources using the `getTranslation` function from `@payloadcms/translations`.
All Server Components automatically receive the `i18n` object as a prop by default:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import { getTranslation } from '@payloadcms/translations'
export default async function MyServerComponent({ i18n }) {
See the [Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) documentation for a full list of
available hooks.
</Banner>
### Getting the Current Locale
All [Custom Views](./custom-views) can support multiple locales to be consistent with Payload's [Localization](../configuration/localization) feature. This can be used to scope API requests, etc.
All Server Components automatically receive the `locale` object as a prop by default:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
export default async function MyServerComponent({ payload, locale }) {
const localizedPage = await payload.findByID({
collection: 'pages',
id: '123',
locale,
})
return <p>{localizedPage.title}</p>
}
```
The best way to do this within a Client Component is to import the `useLocale` hook from `@payloadcms/ui`:
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import { useLocale } from '@payloadcms/ui'
function Greeting() {
const locale = useLocale() // highlight-line
const trans = {
en: 'Hello',
es: 'Hola',
}
return <span>{trans[locale.code]}</span>
}
```

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

### Using Hooks
To make it easier to [build your Custom Components](#building-custom-components), you can use [Payload's built-in React Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) in any Client Component. For example, you might want to interact with one of Payload's many React Contexts. To do this, you can use one of the many hooks available depending on your needs.
See the [Hooks](../admin/react-hooks) documentation for a full list of
available hooks.
</Banner>
### Adding Styles
Payload has a robust [CSS Library](../admin/customizing-css) that you can use to style your Custom Components to match to Payload's built-in styling. This will ensure that your Custom Components integrate well into the existing design system. This will make it so they automatically adapt to any theme changes that might occur.
To apply custom styles, simply import your own `.css` or `.scss` file into your Custom Component:
Then to colorize your Custom Component's background, for example, you can use the following CSS:
```scss
.my-component {
background-color: var(--theme-elevation-500);
}
```
Payload also exports its [SCSS](https://sass-lang.com) library for reuse which includes mixins, etc. To use this, simply import it as follows into your `.scss` file:
```scss
@import '~@payloadcms/ui/scss';
.my-component {
@include mid-break {
background-color: var(--theme-elevation-900);
}
}
```
<Banner type="success">
**Note:** You can also drill into Payload's own component styles, or easily
apply global, app-wide CSS. More on that [here](../admin/customizing-css).
Root Components are those that affect the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) at a high-level, such as the logo or the main nav. You can swap out these components with your own [Custom Components](./overview) to create a completely custom look and feel.
When combined with [Custom CSS](../admin/customizing-css), you can create a truly unique experience for your users, such as white-labeling the Admin Panel to match your brand.
To override Root Components, use the `admin.components` property at the root of your [Payload Config](../configuration/overview):
| `actions` | An array of Custom Components to be rendered _within_ the header of the Admin Panel, providing additional interactivity and functionality. [More details](#actions). |
| `afterDashboard` | An array of Custom Components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _after_ the default dashboard contents. [More details](#afterdashboard). |

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

To add `beforeNavLinks` components, use the `admin.components.beforeNavLinks` property in your Payload Config:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start

```tsx
export default function MyAfterNavLinksComponent() {
return <p>This is a custom component injected after the Nav links.</p>
}
```
### Nav
The `Nav` property contains the sidebar / mobile menu in its entirety. Use this property to completely replace the built-in Nav with your own custom navigation.
To add a custom nav, use the `admin.components.Nav` property in your Payload Config:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
components: {
Nav: '/path/to/your/component',
},
// highlight-end

export default function MyCustomNav() {
return (
<nav>
<ul>
<li>
<Link href="/dashboard">Dashboard</Link>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
)
}
```
### graphics.Icon
The `Icon` property is the simplified logo used in contexts like the `Nav` component. This is typically a small, square icon that represents your brand.
To add a custom icon, use the `admin.components.graphics.Icon` property in your Payload Config:
The `Header` property allows you to inject Custom Components above the Payload header.

The Admin Panel provides each block with a `blockName` field which optionally allows editors to label their blocks for better editability and readability. This can be visually hidden via `admin.disableBlockName`.
If you have multiple blocks used in multiple places, your Payload Config can grow in size, potentially sending more data to the client and requiring more processing on the server. However, you can optimize performance by defining each block **once** in your Payload Config and then referencing its slug wherever it's used instead of passing the entire block config.
To do this, define the block in the `blocks` array of the Payload Config. Then, in the Blocks Field, pass the block slug to the `blockReferences` array - leaving the `blocks` array empty for compatibility reasons.
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { lexicalEditor, BlocksFeature } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
// Payload Config
const config = buildConfig({
// Define the block once

**Reminder:**
Blocks referenced in the `blockReferences` array are treated as isolated from the collection / global config. This has the following implications:
1. The block config cannot be modified or extended in the collection config. It will be identical everywhere it's referenced.
2. Access control for blocks referenced in the `blockReferences` are run only once - data from the collection will not be available in the block's access control.

## Field Types
Payload provides a wide variety of built-in Field Types, each with its own unique properties and behaviors that determine which values it can accept, how it is presented in the API, and how it will be rendered in the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview).
Each field is an object with at least the `type` property. This matches the field to its corresponding Field Type. [More details](#field-options).

#### Async Field Validations
Custom validation functions can also be asynchronous depending on your needs. This makes it possible to make requests to external services or perform other miscellaneous asynchronous logic.
When writing async validation functions, it is important to consider the performance implications. Validations are executed on every change to the field, so they should be as lightweight as possible. If you need to perform expensive validations, such as querying the database, consider using the `event` property in the `ctx` object to only run the validation on form submission.
To write asynchronous validation functions, use the `async` keyword to define your function:
In addition to each field's base configuration, you can use the `admin` key to specify traits and properties for fields that will only effect how they are _rendered_ within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), such as their appearance or behavior.
```ts
import type { Field } from 'payload'
export const MyField: Field = {
type: 'text',
name: 'myField',
admin: { // highlight-line
// ...
}
}
```
For full details on Admin Options, see the [Field Admin Options](../admin/fields) documentation.
## Custom ID Fields
All [Collections](../configuration/collections) automatically generate their own ID field. If needed, you can override this behavior by providing an explicit ID field to your config. This field should either be required or have a hook to generate the ID dynamically.
| **`condition`** | Programmatically show / hide fields based on other fields. [More details](#conditional-logic). |
| **`components`** | All Field Components can be swapped out for [Custom Components](../custom-components/overview) that you define. |
| **`description`** | Helper text to display alongside the field to provide more information for the editor. [More details](#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) entirely. |
| **`disableBulkEdit`** | Set `disableBulkEdit` to `true` to prevent fields from appearing in the select options when making edits for multiple documents. Defaults to `true` for UI fields. |
| **`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 Descriptions
Field Descriptions are used to provide additional information to the editor about a field, such as special instructions. Their placement varies from field to field, but typically are displayed with subtle style differences beneath the field inputs.
A description can be configured in three ways:
- As a string.
- As a function which returns a string. [More details](#description-functions).
- As a React component. [More details](#description).
To add a Custom Description to a field, use the `admin.description` property in your Field Config:
Custom Descriptions can also be defined as a function. Description Functions are executed on the server and can be used to format simple descriptions based on the user's current [Locale](../configuration/localization).
To add a Description Function to a field, set the `admin.description` property to a _function_ in your Field Config:
You can show and hide fields based on what other fields are doing by utilizing conditional logic on a field by field basis. The `condition` property on a field's admin config accepts a function which takes the following arguments:
| **`blockData`** | The nearest parent block's data. If the field is not inside a block, this will be `undefined`. |
| **`path`** | The full path to the field in the schema, represented as an array of string segments, including array indexes. I.e `['group', 'myArray', '1', 'textField']`. |
| **`user`** | The currently authenticated user object. |
The `condition` function should return a boolean that will control if the field should be displayed or not.
**Example:**
```ts
{
fields: [
{
name: 'enableGreeting',
type: 'checkbox',
defaultValue: false,
},
{
name: 'greeting',
type: 'text',
admin: {
// highlight-start
condition: (data, siblingData, { blockData, path, user }) => {
if (data.enableGreeting) {
return true
} else {
return false
}
},
// highlight-end
},
},
]
}
```
### Custom Components
Within the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview), fields are represented in three distinct places:
- [Field](#field) - The actual form field rendered in the Edit View.
- [Cell](#cell) - The table cell component rendered in the List View.
- [Filter](#filter) - The filter component rendered in the List View.
- [Diff](#diff) - The Diff component rendered in the Version Diff View
To swap in Field Components with your own, use the `admin.components` property in your Field Config:
| **`docPreferences`** | An object that contains the [Preferences](../admin/preferences) for the document. |
| **`field`** | In Client Components, this is the sanitized Client Field Config. In Server Components, this is the original Field Config. Server Components will also receive the sanitized field config through the`clientField` prop (see below). |
| **`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. |
| **`path`** | A string representing the direct, dynamic path to the field at runtime, i.e. `myGroup.myArray.0.myField`. |
| **`schemaPath`** | A string representing the direct, static path to the Field Config, i.e. `posts.myGroup.myArray.myField`. |
| **`indexPath`** | A hyphen-notated string representing the path to the field _within the nearest named ancestor field_, i.e. `0-0` |
In addition to the above props, all Server Components will also receive the following props:
When building Custom Field Components, you can import the client field props to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to prepend the field type onto the target type, i.e. `TextFieldClientComponent`:
```tsx
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
See each individual Field Type for exact type imports.
#### Cell
The Cell Component is rendered in the table of the List View. It represents the value of the field when displayed in a table cell.
To swap in your own Cell Component, use the `admin.components.Cell` property in your Field Config:
| **`link`** | A boolean representing whether this cell should be wrapped in a link. |
| **`onClick`** | A function that is called when the cell is clicked. |
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
#### Filter
The Filter Component is the actual input element rendered within the "Filter By" dropdown of the List View used to represent this field when building filters.
To swap in your own Filter Component, use the `admin.components.Filter` property in your Field Config:
All Custom Filter Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
#### Label
The Label Component is rendered anywhere a field needs to be represented by a label. This is typically used in the Edit View, but can also be used in the List View and elsewhere.
To swap in your own Label Component, use the `admin.components.Label` property in your Field Config:
All Custom Label Components receive the same [Default Field Component Props](#field).
For details on how to build Custom Components themselves, see [Building Custom Components](../custom-components/overview#building-custom-components).
##### TypeScript#label-component-types
When building Custom Label Components, you can import the component types to ensure type safety in your component. There is an explicit type for the Label Component, one for every Field Type and server/client environment. The convention is to append `LabelServerComponent` or `LabelClientComponent` to the type of field, i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent`.
```tsx
import type {
TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
#### Description
Alternatively to the [Description Property](#field-descriptions), you can also use a [Custom Component](../custom-components/overview) as the Field Description. This can be useful when you need to provide more complex feedback to the user, such as rendering dynamic field values or other interactive elements.
To add a Description Component to a field, use the `admin.components.Description` property in your Field Config:

#### Error
The Error Component is rendered when a field fails validation. It is typically displayed beneath the field input in a visually-compelling style.
To swap in your own Error Component, use the `admin.components.Error` property in your Field Config:
All Error Components receive the [Default Field Component Props](#field).

#### 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:

Option values should be strings that do not contain hyphens or special characters due to GraphQL
enumeration naming constraints. Underscores are allowed. If you determine you need your option
values to be non-strings or contain special characters, they will be formatted accordingly before
being used as a GraphQL enum.

Options can be dynamically limited by supplying a [query constraint](/docs/queries/overview), which will be used both
for validating input and filtering available relationships in the UI.
Options can be dynamically limited by supplying a [query constraint](/docs/queries/overview), which will be used both for validating input and filtering available relationships in the UI.
The `filterOptions` property can either be a `Where` query, or a function returning `true` to not filter, `false` to
prevent all, or a `Where` query. When using a function, it will be

The `filterOptions` property can either be a `Where` query, or a function returning `true` to not filter, `false` to prevent all, or a `Where` query. When using a function, it will be called with an argument object with the following properties:
| `blockData` | The data of the nearest parent block. Will be `undefined` if the field is not within a block or when called on a `Filter` component within the list view. |
| `data` | An object containing the full collection or global document currently being edited. Will be an empty object when called on a `Filter` component within the list view. |
| `id` | The `id` of the current document being edited. Will be `undefined` during the `create` operation or when called on a `Filter` component within the list view. |
| `relationTo` | The collection `slug` to filter against, limited to this field's `relationTo` property. |
| `req` | The Payload Request, which contains references to `payload`, `user`, `locale`, and more. |
| `siblingData` | An object containing document data that is scoped to only fields within the same parent of this field. Will be an emprt object when called on a `Filter` component within the list view. |
| `user` | An object containing the currently authenticated user. |
