### What?
Since the join field, we do store relationship fields values in
`ObjectID`. This wasn't true if the field is nested to an array /
blocks.
### Why?
All relationship fields values should be stored in `ObjectID`.
### How?
Fixes arrays / blocks handling in the `traverseFields.ts` function.
Before it didn't run for them.
### What?
Adds `defaultPopulate` property to collection config that allows to
specify which fields to select when the collection is populated from
another document.
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
// The TSlug generic can be passed to have type safety for `defaultPopulate`.
// If avoided, the `defaultPopulate` type resolves to `SelectType`.
export const Pages: CollectionConfig<'pages'> = {
slug: 'pages',
// I need only slug, NOT the WHOLE CONTENT!
defaultPopulate: {
slug: true,
},
fields: [
{
name: 'slug',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
}
```
### Why?
This is essential for example in case of links. You don't need the whole
document, which can contain large data but only the `slug`.
### How?
Implements `defaultPopulate` when populating relationships, including
inside of lexical / slate rich text fields.
This PR aims to fix a few issues with the notFound page and custom views
so it matches v2 behaviour:
- Non authorised users should always be redirected to the login page
regardless if not found or valid URL
- Previously notFound would render for non users too potentially
exposing valid but protected routes and creating a confusing workflow as
the UI was being rendered as well
- Custom views are now public by default
- in our `admin` test suite, the `/admin/public-custom-view` is
accessible to non users but
`/admin/public-custom-view/protected-nested-view` is not unless the
checkbox is true in the Settings global, there's e2e coverage for this
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8716
Documentation updated to match current implementation.
Original Doc:
```ts
import { payloadCloud } from '@payloadcms/payload-cloud'
```
Current:
```ts
import { payloadCloudPlugin } from '@payloadcms/payload-cloud'
```

References in docs have been updated.
### What?
Properly specifies `$lookup.from` when the collection name is singular.
### Why?
MongoDB can pluralize the collection name and so can be different for
singular ones.
### How?
Uses the collection name from the driver directly
`adapter.collections[slug].collection.name` instead of just `slug`.
The search plugin was incorrectly retrieving all locales, when it should
just be retrieving the locale of the parent document that was actively
being updated.
## BREAKING CHANGES:
If you have a localized Payload config, and you are using the `plugin-search`, we will now automatically localize the `title` field that is injected by the search plugin and this may lead to data loss. To opt out of this new behavior, you can pass `localize: false` to the plugin options.
Adds `select` which is used to specify the field projection for local
and rest API calls. This is available as an optimization to reduce the
payload's of requests and make the database queries more efficient.
Includes:
- [x] generate types for the `select` property
- [x] infer the return type by `select` with 2 modes - include (`field:
true`) and exclude (`field: false`)
- [x] lots of integration tests, including deep fields / localization
etc
- [x] implement the property in db adapters
- [x] implement the property in the local api for most operations
- [x] implement the property in the rest api
- [x] docs

### What?
Adds a way to prevent creating new documents from the admin UI in a join
field.
### Why?
There are two reasons:
1. You want to disable this any time as a feature of your admin user
experience
2. When creating a new document it is not yet possible to create the
relationship, preventing create is necessary for the workflow to make
sense.
### How?
join field has a new admin property called `allowCreate`, can be set to
false. By default the UI will never allow create when the current
document being edited does not yet have an `id`.
Fixes #
#8892
### Before
Even though the document doesn't have an ID yet, the create buttons are
shown which doesn't actually work.
### After
Initial document creation:
Prevented using `allowCreate: false`
Corrects package import paths for live preview test.
- This would cause a import glitch when trying to run the live-preview
test due to incorrect file paths.
### What?
Fixes the issue with passing a string `limit` value from user
preferences to the mongodb `.aggregate` function.
To reproduce:
- click the list view for a collection that has a join field
- set "show per page" to 100
- reload, see this:
<img width="1001" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/86c644d1-d183-48e6-bf34-0ccac23cb114">
### Why?
When using `.aggregate`, MongoDB doesn't cast a value for the `$limit`
stage to a number automatically as it's not handled by Mongoose. It's
also more convenient to store this value as a number.
### How?
Stores `limit` inside of preferences in number.
### What?
This PR aims to fix an issue in the form-builder plugin page - in the
`number` field table, where an issue with one of the columns makes the
whole table unformatted. [See issue
here](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/plugins/form-builder#number).
### Why?
As it stands, the whole table is being rendered without any formatting,
making understanding it very difficult.
### How?
Changes to `docs/plugins/form-builder.mdx`
`Issue`:
Previously, documents that were locked but expired would still show in
the list view / render the `DocumentLocked` modal upon other users
entering the document.
The expected outcome should be having expired locked documents seen as
unlocked to other users.
I.e:
- Removing the lock icon from expired locks in the list view.
- Prevent the `DocumentLocked` modal from appearing for other users -
requiring a take over.
`Fix`:
- Only query for locked documents that are not expired, aka their
`updatedAt` dates are greater than the the current time minus the lock
duration.
- Performs a `deleteMany` on expired documents when any user edits any
other document in the same collection.
Fixes#8778
`TODO`: Add tests
### What?
Fixes the issue with `in` querying when the collection has a join field.
### Why?
When using `.aggregate`, MongoDB doesn't cast a comma delimited value
for the `$in` operator to an array automatically as it's not handled by
Mongoose.
### How?
Sanitizes the incoming value to an array if it should.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8901
### What?
Allow specifying the defaultSort and defaultLimit to use for populating
a join field
### Why?
It is much easier to set defaults rather than be forced to always call
the join query using the query pattern ("?joins[categories][limit]=0").
### How?
See docs and type changes

### What?
Updates the examples in the
[admin/metadata#root-metadata](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/admin/metadata#root-metadata)
and
[admin/metadata#icons](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/admin/metadata#icons)
sections from using `href` to `url` and fixes the way that the `images`
Type excludes the description due to `|` being parsed as column
separator
### Why?
As of right now, the examples are incorrect and the `images` type bleeds
into the description and omits it entirely

While following the "Adding to an existing app" instructions for the
**beta** docs, I noticed that the pnpm installation commands for the
database adapters were missing the `@beta` tag, which will result in
errors in the project.
Fixes a potential race condition where versions could lose `latest:
true` and potentially also introduce a conflict with the `parent` field.
We now explicitly define these as we update versions in the
`saveVersion` function.
Previously, when opening e.g. a link drawer, clicking within the drawer,
and then closing it, the cursor / selection of the lexical editor will
reset to the beginning of the editor.
Now, we have dedicated logic to storing, preserving and restoring the
lexical selection when working with drawers.
This will work with all drawers. Links, uploads, relationships etc.

BREAKING CHANGE: Rename `@payloadcms/plugin-cloud` to
`@payloadcms/payload-cloud`. Anyone using the existing plugin will need
to switch to using the new package.
## Why?
Since v3 will be using _fixed versioning_, all versions of `^3` must be
available. Unfortunately, the `@payloadcms/plugin-cloud` version has
already breached that version number. Renaming will allow it to be on
the same version as other monorepo packages.
Additionally, the name `plugin-cloud` is quite ambiguous and sometimes
is confused with `plugin-cloud-storage`, so using `payload-cloud` feels
like a good move to make this more evident.
Fixes an annoying instance where on the /account page if you change your
theme then navigate away the Leaving without save popup is triggered
even though you don't need to submit a form or trigger a save in order
to change your admin theme.
This change adds support for sort with multiple fields in local API and
REST API. Related discussion #2089

### What?
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/5152 issue related to
sorting by a localized field with SQLite / Postgres database adapters.
### Why?
It was an incorrect behaviour.
### How?
Modifies the `getTableColumnFromPath` file to have correct join
conditions. Previously if you had this structure in the _locales table
_locale title parent
en A 1
es B 1
we sorted by everything that's here, but we need to sort only by the
passed locale.
Additionally fixes a typescript error in `dev.ts` that I added here
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8834
Also, removes the condition with `joins.length` in `countDistinct`. It
was there as for this issue
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/4889 because sorting by a
localized property caused duplication. This can simnifically improve
performance for `.find` with nested querying/sorting on large data sets,
because `count(*)` is faster than `count(DISTINCT id)`
I'm extending the Slate editor with a custom component and everything
works great, except I have to import `useElement()` like this:
```tsx
import { useElement } from 'node_modules/.pnpm/@payloadcms+richtext-slate@3.0.0-beta.113_monaco-editor@0.51.0_next@15.0.0-canary.191_@babel+_qmdxs6s5hpzjhuopohgawpvl6i/node_modules/@payloadcms/richtext-slate/dist/field/providers/ElementProvider.js'
export function Element() {
const { attributes, children } = useElement()
return (
<p {...attributes} className="rich-text-preheading">
{children}
</p>
)
}
```
That's because it's not in the `@payloadcms/richtext-slate/client`
module. This PR fixes this and would allow me to do:
```tsx
import { useElement } from '@payloadcms/richtext-slate/client'
```
Apparently, `nextDev` seems to run in a different process and has its
own env variables, we can run the dev server the same way we run it for
E2Es instead via `createServer`.
Example:
```sh
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry
```
to:
```sh
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry@beta
```
Because of this, people can be confused with the wrong installed
version. We'll change it back on stable
