**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.
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
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.
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
Bumps `@faceless-ui/window-info` to v3.0.1` and
`@faceless-ui/scroll-info` to v2.0.0. This gets them both off beta
versions and includes React 19 stable in their peer deps.
The `@faceless-ui/modal` package, however, has yet to be bumped. This
package is waiting on https://github.com/faceless-ui/modal/issues/63 to
be resolved in order to fully deprecate
[`body-scroll-lock`](https://github.com/willmcpo/body-scroll-lock)
before bumping to stable.
This PR moves the logic for rendering diff field components in the
version comparison view from the client to the server.
This allows us to expose more customization options to the server-side
Payload Config. For example, users can now pass their own diff
components for fields - even including RSCs.
This PR also cleans up the version view types
Implements the following from
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/4197:
- allow for customization of diff components
- more control over versions screens in general
TODO:
- [x] Bring getFieldPaths fixes into core
- [x] Cleanup and test with scrutiny. Ensure all field types display
their diffs correctly
- [x] Review public API for overriding field types, add docs
- [x] Add e2e test for new public API
Adds a feature to allow editors to schedule publish / unpublish events
in the future. Must be enabled by setting
`versions.drafts.schedulePublish: true` in your Collection / Global
configs.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ca1d7a8b-946a-4eac-b911-c2177dbe3b1c
Todo:
- [x] Translate new i18n keys
- [x] Wire up locale-specific scheduled publish / unpublish actions
Previously we had been downgrading rimraf to v3 simply to handle clean
with glob patterns across platforms. In v4 and newer of rimraf you can
add `-g` to use glob patterns.
This change updates rimraf and adds the flag to handle globs in our
package scripts to be windows compatible.
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.
