4975b8dd4b fix(ui): custom folder slug in browse-by (#13909)
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/13887

ensureSafeCollectionsChange was using the `folderSlug` imported from the
constants file instead of using the `slug` passed into the
createFolderCollection function.

00a673e491 feat(next): regenerate live preview url on save (#13631)
Closes #12785.

Although your live preview URL can be dynamic based on document data, it
is never recalculated after initial mount. This means if your URL is
dependent of document data that was just changed, such as a "slug"
field, the URL of the iframe does not reflect that change as expected
until the window is refreshed or you navigate back.

This also means that server-side live preview will crash when your
front-end attempts to query using a slug that no longer exists. Here's
the general flow: slug changes, autosave runs, iframe refreshes (url has
old slug), 404.

Now, we execute your live preview function on submit within form state,
and the window responds to the new URL as expected, refreshing itself
without losing its connection.

Here's the result:

d8dace6509 feat: conditional blocks (#13801)
This PR introduces support for conditionally setting allowable block
types via a new `field.filterOptions` property on the blocks field.

Closes the following feature requests:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/5348,
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/4668 (partly)

## Example

```ts
fields: [
  {
      name: 'enabledBlocks',
      type: 'text',
      admin: {
        description:
          "Change the value of this field to change the enabled blocks of the blocksWithDynamicFilterOptions field. If it's empty, all blocks are enabled.",
      },
    },
    {
      name: 'blocksWithFilterOptions',
      type: 'blocks',
      filterOptions: ['block1', 'block2'],
      blocks: [
        {
          slug: 'block1',
          fields: [

# Rationale

## Why not `block.condition`?

- Individual blocks are often reused in multiple contexts, where the
logic for when they should be available may differ. It’s more
appropriate for the blocks field (typically tied to a single collection)
to determine availability.
- Hiding existing blocks when they no longer satisfy a condition would
cause issues - for example, reordering blocks would break or cause block
data to disappear. Instead, this implementation ensures consistency by
throwing a validation error if a block is no longer allowed. This aligns
with the behavior of `filterOptions` in relationship fields, rather than
`condition`.

## Why not call it `blocksFilterOptions`?

Although the type differs from relationship fields, this property is
named `filterOptions` (and not `blocksFilterOptions`) for consistency
across field types. For example, the Select field also uses
`filterOptions` despite its type being unique.

1072171f97 feat: support hasMany virtual relationship fields (#13879)
This PR adds support for the following configuration:
```ts
const config = {
  collections: [
    {
      slug: 'categories',
      fields: [
        {
          name: 'title',
          type: 'text',
        },
      ],
    },
    {
      slug: 'posts',
      fields: [
        {
          name: 'title',
          type: 'text',
        },
        {
          name: 'categories',
          type: 'relationship',
          relationTo: 'categories',
          hasMany: true,
        },
      ],
    },
    {
      slug: 'examples',
      fields: [
        {
          name: 'postCategoriesTitles',
          type: 'text',
          virtual: 'post.categories.title',
          // hasMany: true - added automatically during the sanitization
        },
        {
          type: 'relationship',
          relationTo: 'posts',
          name: 'post',
        },
        {
          name: 'postsTitles',
          type: 'text',
          virtual: 'posts.title',
          // hasMany: true - added automatically during the sanitization
        },
        {
          type: 'relationship',
          relationTo: 'posts',
          name: 'posts',
          hasMany: true,
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
}
```

In the result:
`postsTitles` - will be always populated with an array of posts titles.
`postCategoriesTitles` - will be always populated with an array of the
categories titles that are related to this post

The virtual `text` field is sanitizated to `hasMany: true`
automatically, but you can specify that manually as well.

77cac30046 perf(ui): use select API in RelationshipProvider to speed up load times in RelationshipCell (#13832)
### What?
Optimize the `RelationshipProvider` to only select the `useAsTitle`
field when fetching documents via the REST API. This reduces payload
size and speeds up loading of the related document title in
the`RelationshipCell` in the table view.

### Why?
Previously, when a document had a relationship field, the full document
data was requested in the table view, even though the relationship cell
only shows the title in the UI. On large collections, this caused
unnecessary overhead and slower UI performance.

### How?
Applies a select to the REST API request made in the
`RelationshipProvider`, limiting the responses to the `useAsTitle` field
only.

### Notes
- I’m not entirely sure whether this introduces a breaking change. If it
does, could you suggest a way to make this behavior opt-in?
- For upload enabled collections, the full document must be requested,
because the relationship cell needs access to fields like `mimeType`,
`thumbailURL` etc.
- I hope we can find a way to get this merged. In the Payload projects I
work on, this change has significantly improved list view performance.

1c89291fac feat(richtext-lexical): utility render lexical field on-demand (#13657)
## Why this exists

Lexical in Payload is a React Server Component (RSC). Historically that
created three headaches:

1. You couldn’t render the editor directly from the client.
2. Features like blocks, tables, upload and link drawers require the
server to know the shape of nested sub‑fields at render time. If you
tried to render on demand, the server didn’t know those schemas.
3. The rich text field is designed to live inside a Form. For simple use
cases, setting up a full form just to manage editor state was
cumbersome.

## What’s new

We now ship a client component, `<RenderLexical />`, that renders a
Lexical editor **on demand** while still covering the full feature set.
On mount, it calls a server action to render the editor on the server
using the new `render-field` server action. That server render gives
Lexical everything it needs (including nested field schemas) and returns
a ready‑to‑hydrate editor.

## Example - Rendering in custom component within existing Form

```tsx
'use client'

import type { JSONFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'

import { buildEditorState, RenderLexical } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/client'

import { lexicalFullyFeaturedSlug } from '../../slugs.js'

export const Component: JSONFieldClientComponent = (args) => {
  return (
    <div>
      Fully-Featured Component:
      <RenderLexical
        field={{ name: 'json' }}
        initialValue={buildEditorState({ text: 'defaultValue' })}
        schemaPath={`collection.${lexicalFullyFeaturedSlug}.richText`}
      />
    </div>
  )
}
```

## Example - Rendering outside of Form, manually managing richText
values

```ts
'use client'

import type { DefaultTypedEditorState } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
import type { JSONFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'

import { buildEditorState, RenderLexical } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/client'
import React, { useState } from 'react'

import { lexicalFullyFeaturedSlug } from '../../slugs.js'

export const Component: JSONFieldClientComponent = (args) => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState<DefaultTypedEditorState | undefined>(() =>
    buildEditorState({ text: 'state default' }),
  )

  const handleReset = React.useCallback(() => {
    setValue(buildEditorState({ text: 'state default' }))
  }, [])

  return (
    <div>
      Default Component:
      <RenderLexical
        field={{ name: 'json' }}
        initialValue={buildEditorState({ text: 'defaultValue' })}
        schemaPath={`collection.${lexicalFullyFeaturedSlug}.richText`}
        setValue={setValue as any}
        value={value}
      />
      <button onClick={handleReset} style={{ marginTop: 8 }} type="button">
        Reset Editor State
      </button>
    </div>
  )
}
```

## How it works (under the hood)

- On first render, `<RenderLexical />` calls the server function
`render-field` (wired into @payloadcms/next), passing a schemaPath.
- The server loads the exact field config and its client schema map for
that path, renders the Lexical editor server‑side (so nested features
like blocks/tables/relationships are fully known), and returns the
component tree.
- While waiting, the client shows a small shimmer skeleton.
- Inside Forms, RenderLexical plugs into the parent form via useField;
outside Forms, you can fully control the value by passing
value/setValue.

## Type Improvements

While implementing the `buildEditorState` helper function for our test
suite, I noticed some issues with our `TypedEditorState` type:
- nodes were no longer narrowed by their node.type types
- upon fixing this issue, the type was no longer compatible with the
generated types. To address this, I had to weaken the generated type a
bit.

In order to ensure the type will keep functioning as intended from now
on, this PR also adds some type tests

8d3b146d2d fix(next): unnamed, unlabeled groups displayed without label in version view (#13831)
Before, unnamed, unlabelled group were part of an unlabeled collapsible
in the version diff view. This means, all it displayed was a clickable,
empty rectangle. This looks like a bug rather than intended.

This PR displays a new <Unnamed Group> label in these cases.

It also fixes the incorrect `NamedGroupFieldClient` type. Previously,
that type did not include the `name` property, even though it was
available on the client.

3b13867aee fix: skip validation when trashing documents with empty required fields (#13807)
### What?

Skip field validation when trashing documents with empty required
fields.

### Why?

When trashing a document that was saved as a draft with empty required
fields, Payload would run full validation and fail with "The following
fields are invalid" errors. This happened because trash operations were
treated as regular updates that require full field validation, even
though trashing is just a metadata change (setting `deletedAt`) and
shouldn't be blocked by content validation issues.
   
### How?

- Modified `skipValidation` logic in `updateDocument()` to skip
validation when `deletedAt` is being set in the update data

Fixes #13706

3acdbf6b25 feat: pass args to task onSuccess and onFail callbacks (#13269)
### What?
Passes the same args provided to a task's `shouldRestore` function to
both the `onSuccess` & `onFail` callbacks

### Why?
Currently `onSuccess` and `onFail` are quite useless without any
context, this will allow for a wider range of functionality:

- Checking if it's the last failure
- Access to the task `input`
- Access to `req` to allow logging, email notifications, etc.

### How?
1. Created a new `TaskCallbackArgs` type, which replicates the args of
the `ShouldRestoreFn` type.
2. Add a `TaskCallbackFn` type
3. Update the function calls of both `onSuccess` and `onFail`.

### Questions
- I wasn't sure about the typing of `input` – I can see `input: input!`
being used elsewhere for task errors so I replicated that.
- Same for `taskStatus`, I added a type check but I'm not sure if this
is the right approach (what would scenario would result in a `null`
value?). Should `TaskCallbackArgs['taskStatus']` be typed to allow for
`null` values?

update operations
- Removed `select` parameter from `saveVersion()` call in update
operation

cdeb828971 feat: crons for all bin scripts, new jobs:handle-schedules script, more reliable job system crons (#13564)
## New jobs:handle-schedules bin script

Similarly to `payload jobs:run`, this PR adds a new
`jobs:handle-schedules` bin script which only handles scheduling.

## Allows jobs:run bin script to handle scheduling

Similarly to how [payload
autoRun](https://payloadcms.com/docs/jobs-queue/queues#cron-jobs)
handles both running and scheduling jobs by default, you can now set the
`payload jobs:run` bin script to also handle scheduling. This is opt-in:

```sh
pnpm payload jobs:run --cron "*/5 * * * *" --queue myQueue --handle-schedules # This will both schedule jobs according to the configuration and run them
```

## Cron schedules for all bin scripts

Previously, only the `payload jobs:run` bin script accepted a cron flag.
The `payload jobs:handle-schedules` would have required the same logic
to also handle a cron flag.

Instead of opting for this duplicative logic, I'm now handling cron
logic before we determine which script to run. This means: it's simpler
and requires less duplicative code.

**This allows all other bin scripts (including custom ones) to use the
`--cron` flag**, enabling cool use-cases like scheduling your own custom
scripts - no additional config required!

Example:

```sh
pnpm payload run ./myScript.ts --cron "0 * * * *"
```

Video Example:


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4ded738d-2ef9-43ea-8136-f47f913a7ba8

## More reliable job system crons

When using autorun or `--cron`, if one cron run takes longer than the
cron interval, the second cron would run before the first one finishes.

This can be especially dangerous when running jobs using a bin script,
potentially causing race conditions, as the first cron run will take
longer due to payload initialization overhead (only for first cron run,
consecutive ones use cached payload). Now, consecutive cron runs will
wait for the first one to finish by using the `{ protect: true }`
property of Croner.

This change will affect both autorun and bin scripts.

## Cleanup

- Centralized payload instance cleanup (payload.destroy()) for all bin
scripts
- The `getPayload` function arguments were not properly typed. Arguments
like `disableOnInit: true` are already supported, but the type did not
reflect that. This simplifies the type and makes it more accurate.

## Fixes

- `allQueues` argument for `payload jobs:run` was not respected

b34e5eadf4 fix(live-preview): client-side live preview failed to populate localized fields (#13794)
Fixes #13756 

The findByID endpoint, by default, expects the data for localized fields
to be an object, values mapped to the locale. This is not the case for
client-side live preview, as we send already-flattened data to the
findByID endpoint.

For localized fields where the value is an object (richText/json/group),
the afterRead hook handler would attempt to flatten the field value,
even though it was already flattened.

## Solution

The solution is to expose a `flattenLocales` arg to the findByID
endpoint (default: true) and pass `flattenLocales: false` from the
client-side live preview request handler.

sanitizer will remove even the `collections` field from the sanitized
permissions. This throws a server error when the `collections` field is
attempted to be accessed with some collection slug. The error is "Cannot
read properties of undefined".

### Why?

An example of how this might come about:
I am using multi-tenancy. I have some conditions about which users can
see other user's information (do they share any tenants). One workflow
is such that a "super admin" (user A) of a tenant removes an "admin"
(user B) inside their tenant. This is done by removing the tenant from
the user's list. After user A's update succeeds, payload defaults to
trying to reload user B's page. However, the two no longer share a
tenant. The access controls correctly evaluate that user A should no
longer be able to see/update/etc user B, but there is a bug in how the
objects are handled (see below).

The sanitizer removes the .collections field from the
sanitizedPermissions, so we get a server error about the key missing
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'users')" in my case.

### How?

Instead of immediately keying into the sanitizedPermissions, we see if
the collections exist. If not, we make sure to return a well-defined
object with no permissions.

Before:

```ts
return sanitizedPermissions.collections![config.slug]!
```

After:

```ts
const collectionPermissions = sanitizedPermissions?.collections?.[config.slug]
return collectionPermissions ?? { fields: {} }
```

e2632c86d0 fix: fully sanitize unauthenticated client config (#13785)
Follow-up to #13714.

Fully sanitizes the unauthenticated client config to exclude much of the
users collection, including fields, etc. These are not required of the
login flow and are now completely omitted along with other unnecessary
properties.

This is closely aligned with the goals of the original PR, and as an
added bonus, makes the config _even smaller_ than it already was for
unauthenticated users.

Needs #13790.

dfb0021545 fix: client config context inheritance (#13790)
Redirecting from login to any non-auth collection crashes the page with
the following error:

```
Cannot read properties of null (reading 'fields')
```

TL;DR: the page-level config context was threading stale methods from
the root config provider.

#### Background

The client config is now gated behind authentication as of #13714, so it
changes based on authentication status. If the root layout is mounted
before authentication, it puts the unauthenticated client config into
state for the entire app to consume.

On login, the root layout does not re-render, so the page itself needs
to generate a fresh client config and sync it up.

This leads to race conditions, however, where if the login page included
a `?redirect=` param, the redirect would take place _before_ the
page-level client config could sync to the layout, and ultimately crash
the page. This was addressed in #13786.

While this fixed redirects to the "users" collection, this collection is
_already_ included in the client config (soon to be omitted by #13785).
So if you redirect to any other collection, the above error occurs.

#### Problem

The page-level config context is only overriding the `config` property,
keeping stale methods from the root config provider. This means calling
`getEntityConfig` during this moment in the time would reference the
stale config, although `config` itself would be fresh.

#### Solution

Wrap the page with an entirely new context provider. Do not thread
inherited methods from the root provider, this way all new methods get
instantiated using the fresh config.

13af91f05d fix(next): login redirect crashes page (#13786)
## Problem

When logging in with a `?redirect=`, the target page may crash. This
happens because the update from `SyncClientConfig` is applied in a
`useEffect`, which runs **_after_** the target page's client components
render. As a result, those components read the unauthenticated client
config on first render - even though they expect the authenticated one.

## Steps To Reproduce

1. logout
2. login with ?redirect=
3. document client component incorrectly still receives unauthenticated
client config on render
4. THEN the SyncClientConfig useEffect runs. Too late
5. Potential error (depending on the page, e.g. document view) -
document client component expects sth to be there, but it is not

## Solution

This PR replaces `SyncClientConfig` with a `RootPageConfigProvider`.
This new provider shadows the root layout’s `ConfigProvider` and ensures
the correct client config is available **_immediately_**.

It still updates the config using `useEffect` (the same
way`SyncClientConfig` did), but with one key difference:

- During the brief window between the redirect and the effect running,
it overrides the root layout’s config and provides the fresh,
authenticated config from the root page via the `RootConfigContext`.

This guarantees that client components on the target page receive the
correct config on first render, preventing errors caused by reading the
outdated unauthenticated config.

## Additional change - get rid of `UnsanitizedClientConfig` and
`sanitizeClientConfig`

Those functions added unnecessary complexity, just to build the
blocksMap. I removed those and perform the building of the `blocksMap`
server-side - directly in `createClientConfig`.

82820312e8 feat: expose multipart/form-data parsing options (#13766)
When sending REST API requests with multipart/form-data, e.g. PATCH or
POST within the admin panel, a request body larger than 1MB throws the
following error:

```
Unterminated string in JSON at position...
```

This is because there are sensible defaults imposed by the HTML form
data parser (currently using
[busboy](https://github.com/fastify/busboy)). If your documents exceed
this limit, you may run into this error when editing them within the
admin panel.

To support large documents over 1MB, use the new `bodyParser` property
on the root config:

```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'

const config = buildConfig({
  // ...
  bodyParser: {
    limits: {
      fieldSize: 2 * 1024 * 1024, // This will allow requests containing up to 2MB of multipart/form-data
    }
  }
}

### What?

Presentational Fields such as
[Row](https://payloadcms.com/docs/fields/row) are described as only
effecting the admin panel. If they do not impact data, their types
should not include hooks in the fields config.

### Why?

Developers can currently assign hooks to these fields, expecting them to
work, when in reality they are not called.

### How?

Omit `hooks` from `FieldBase`

Fixes #11507

e1ea07441e feat: adds disableListColumn and disableListFilter to imageSize admin props (#13699)
### What?

Added support for `disableListColumn` and `disableListFilter` admin
properties on imageSize configurations that automatically apply to all
fields within the corresponding size group.

### Why?

Upload collections with multiple image sizes can clutter the admin list
view with many size-specific columns and filters. This feature allows
developers to selectively hide size fields from list views while keeping
them accessible in the document edit view.

### How?

Modified `getBaseFields.ts` to inherit admin properties from imageSize
configuration and apply them to all nested fields (url, width, height,
mimeType, filesize, filename) within each size group. The implementation
uses conditional spread operators to only apply these properties when
explicitly set to `true`, maintaining backward compatibility.

e49005fcbd feat: unauthenticated client config (#13714)
Secures the client config behind authentication to prevent exposing
underlying schemas to unauthenticated users. Serves an "unauthenticated"
version of the client config in its place, containing only minimally
required properties to enable the login flow.

For example, when downloading the page source for the login view, the
entire client config is embedded in the page response, including all
collection slugs, field names, etc.

This is not inherently insecure. Hooks and core business logic have
already been stripped out, and data is not exposed, but this pattern
could shine light into a project's general structure which could be
considered IP.

This could also be considered a small performance benefit to the login
page, which is now smaller in size relative to the config and can
potentially download faster.

Note: the create first user flow is an acception to the rule. It
requires the full config in order to render fields, including joins,
relationships, etc.

d2d2df4408 perf(ui): opt-in to the select api in the list view (#13697)
Adds a new property to the config that enables the Select API in the
list view. This is a performance opt-in, where only the active columns
(and those specified in `forceSelect`) are queried. This can greatly
improve performance, especially for collections with large documents or
many fields.

To enable this, use the `admin.enableListViewSelectAPI` in your
Collection Config:

```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'

export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
  // ...
  admin: {
    enableListViewSelectAPI: true // This will select only the active columns (and any `forceSelect` fields)
  }
}
```

Note: The `enableListViewSelectAPI` property is currently labeled as
experimental, as it will likely become the default behavior in v4 and be
deprecated. The reason it cannot be the default now is because cells or
other components may be relying on fully populated data, which will no
longer be the case when using `select`.

For example, if your component relies on a "title" field, this field
will _**not**_ exist if the column is **_inactive_**:

```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'

export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
  // ...
  fields: [
    // ...
    {
      name: 'myField',
      type: 'text',
      hooks: {
        afterRead: [
          ({ doc }) => doc.title // `title` will only be populated if the column is active
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}
```

There are other cases that might be affected by this change as well, for
example any components relying on the `data` object returned by the
`useListQuery()` hook:

```ts
'use client'

export const MyComponent = () => {
  const { data } = useListQuery() // `data.docs` will only contain fields that are selected
  
  // ...
}
```

To ensure title is always present, you will need to add that field to
the `forceSelect` property in your Collection Config:

```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'

export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
  // ...
  forceSelect: {
    title: true
  }
}
```

6e203db33c feat(live-preview): client-side live preview: simplify population, support hooks and lexical block population (#13619)
Alternative solution to
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/11104. Big thanks to
@andershermansen and @GermanJablo for kickstarting work on a solution
and bringing this to our attention. This PR copies over the live-preview
test suite example from his PR.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/5285,
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6071 and
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8277. Potentially fixes
#11801

This PR completely gets rid of our client-side live preview field
traversal + population and all logic related to it, and instead lets the
findByID endpoint handle it.

The data sent through the live preview message event is now passed to
findByID via the newly added `data` attribute. The findByID endpoint
will then use this data and run hooks on it (which run population),
instead of fetching the data from the database.

This new API basically behaves like a `/api/populate?data=` endpoint,
with the benefit that it runs all the hooks. Another use-case for it
will be rendering lexical data. Sometimes you may only have unpopulated
data available. This functionality allows you to then populate the
lexical portion of it on-the-fly, so that you can properly render it to
JSX while displaying images.

## Benefits
- a lot less code to maintain. No duplicative population logic
- much faster - one single API request instead of one request per
relationship to populate
- all payload features are now correctly supported (population and
hooks)
- since hooks are now running for client-side live preview, this means
the `lexicalHTML` field is now supported! This was a long-running issue
- this fixes a lot of population inconsistencies that we previously did
not know of. For example, it previously populated lexical and slate
relationships even if the data was saved in an incorrect format

## [Method Override
(POST)](https://payloadcms.com/docs/rest-api/overview#using-method-override-post)
change

The population request to the findByID endpoint is sent as a post
request, so that we can pass through the `data` without having to
squeeze it into the url params. To do that, it uses the
`X-Payload-HTTP-Method-Override` header.

Previously, this functionality still expected the data to be sent
through as URL search params - just passed to the body instead of the
URL. In this PR, I made it possible to pass it as JSON instead. This
means:

- the receiving endpoint will receive the data under `req.data` and is
not able to read it from the search params
- this means existing endpoints won't support this functionality unless
they also attempt to read from req.data.
- for the purpose of this PR, the findByID endpoint was modified to
support this behavior. This functionality is documented as it can be
useful for user-defined endpoints as well.

Passing data as json has the following benefits:

- it's more performant - no need to serialize and deserialize data to
search params via `qs-esm`. This is especially important here, as we are
passing large amounts of json data
- the current implementation was serializing the data incorrectly,
leading to incorrect data within nested lexical nodes

**Note for people passing their own live preview `requestHandler`:**
instead of sending a GET request to populate documents, you will now
need to send a POST request to the findByID endpoint and pass additional
headers. Additionally, you will need to send through the arguments as
JSON instead of search params and include `data` as an argument. Here is
the updated defaultRequestHandler for reference:

```ts
const defaultRequestHandler: CollectionPopulationRequestHandler = ({
  apiPath,
  data,
  endpoint,
  serverURL,
}) => {
  const url = `${serverURL}${apiPath}/${endpoint}`

  return fetch(url, {
    body: JSON.stringify(data),
    credentials: 'include',
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'X-Payload-HTTP-Method-Override': 'GET',
    },
    method: 'POST',
  })
}
```

be47f65b7c fix: prevent enabling trash on folders (#13675)
### What?

This PR updates the folder configuration types to explicitly omit the
`trash` option from `CollectionConfig` when used for folders.

### Why?

Currently, only documents are designed to support trashing. Allowing
folders to be trashed introduces inconsistencies, since removing a
folder does not properly remove its references from associated
documents.

By omitting `trash` from folder configurations, we prevent accidental
use of unsupported behavior until proper design and handling for folder
trashing is implemented.

### How?

- Updated `RootFoldersConfiguration.collectionOverrides` type to use
`Omit<CollectionConfig, 'trash'>`
- Ensures `trash` cannot be enabled on folders

0f6d748365 feat: adds new experimental.localizeStatus option (#13207)
### What?
Adds a new `experimental.localizeStatus` config option, set to `false`
by default. When `true`, the admin panel will display the document
status based on the *current locale* instead of the _latest_ overall
status. Also updates the edit view to only show a `changed` status when
`autosave` is enabled.

### Why?
Showing the status for the current locale is more accurate and useful in
multi-locale setups. This update will become default behavior, able to
be opted in by setting `experimental.localizeStatus: true` in the
Payload config. This option will become depreciated in V4.

### How?
When `localizeStatus` is `true`, we store the localized status in a new
`localeStatus` field group within version data. The admin panel then
reads from this field to display the correct status for the current
locale.

e0ffada80b feat: support parallel job queue tasks, speed up task running (#13614)
Currently, attempting to run tasks in parallel will result in DB errors.

## Solution

The problem was caused due to inefficient db update calls. After each
task completes, we need to update the log array in the payload-jobs
collection. On postgres, that's a different table.

Currently, the update works the following way:
1. Nuke the table
2. Re-insert every single row, including the new one

This will throw db errors if multiple processes start doing that.
Additionally, due to conflicts, new log rows may be lost.

This PR makes use of the the [new db $push operation
](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/13453) we recently added to
atomically push a new log row to the database in a single round-trip.
This not only reduces the amount of db round trips (=> faster job queue
system) but allows multiple tasks to perform this db operation in
parallel, without conflicts.

## Problem

**Example:**

```ts
export const fastParallelTaskWorkflow: WorkflowConfig<'fastParallelTask'> = {
  slug: 'fastParallelTask',
  handler: async ({nlineTask }) => {
    const taskFunctions = []
    for (let i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
      const idx = i + 1
      taskFunctions.push(async () => {
        return await inlineTask(`parallel task ${idx}`, {
          input: {
            test: idx,
          },
          task: () => {
            return {
              output: {
                taskID: idx.toString(),
              },
            }
          },
        })
      })
    }

    await Promise.all(taskFunctions.map((f) => f()))
  },
}
```

On SQLite, this would throw the following error:

0a18306599 feat: configurable toast notifications (#13609)
Follow up to #12119.

You can now configure the toast notifications used in the admin panel
through the Payload config:

```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'

export default buildConfig({
  // ...
  admin: {
    // ...
    toast: {
      duration: 8000,
      limit: 1,
      // ...
    }
  }
})
```

_Note: the toast config is temporarily labeled as experimental to allow
for changes to the API, if necessary._

a67043854e fix: restore as draft function was passing a published status (#13599)
### What  
When using the `Restore as draft` action from the version view, the
restored document incorrectly appears as `published` in the API. This
issue was reported by a client.

### Why  
In the `restoreVersion` operation, the document is updated via
`db.updateOne` (line 265). The update passes along the status stored in
the version being restored but does not respect the `draft` query
parameter.

### How  
Ensures that the result status is explicitly set to `draft` when the
`draft` argument is `true`.

13c24afa63 feat: allow multiple, different payload instances using getPayload in same process (#13603)
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/13433. Testing
release: `3.54.0-internal.90cf7d5`

Previously, when calling `getPayload`, you would always use the same,
cached payload instance within a single process, regardless of the
arguments passed to the `getPayload` function. This resulted in the
following issues - both are fixed by this PR:

- If, in your frontend you're calling `getPayload` without `cron: true`,
and you're hosting the Payload Admin Panel in the same process, crons
will not be enabled even if you visit the admin panel which calls
`getPayload` with `cron: true`. This will break jobs autorun depending
on which page you visit first - admin panel or frontend
- Within the same process, you are unable to use `getPayload` twice for
different instances of payload with different Payload Configs.
On postgres, you can get around this by manually calling new
`BasePayload()` which skips the cache. This did not work on mongoose
though, as mongoose was caching the models on a global singleton (this
PR addresses this).
In order to bust the cache for different Payload Config, this PR
introduces a new, optional `key` property to `getPayload`.


## Mongoose - disable using global singleton

This PR refactors the Payload Mongoose adapter to stop relying on the
global mongoose singleton. Instead, each adapter instance now creates
and manages its own scoped Connection object.

### Motivation

Previously, calling `getPayload()` more than once in the same process
would throw `Cannot overwrite model` errors because models were compiled
into the global singleton. This prevented running multiple Payload
instances side-by-side, even when pointing at different databases.

### Changes
- Replace usage of `mongoose.connect()` / `mongoose.model()` with
instance-scoped `createConnection()` and `connection.model()`.
- Ensure models, globals, and versions are compiled per connection, not
globally.
- Added proper `close()` handling on `this.connection` instead of
`mongoose.disconnect()`.
