@payloadcms/plugin-search 3.72.0 on Node.js NPM

v3.72.0 (2026-01-16)

🚀 Features

adds experimental option localizeStatus and allows unpublish per-locale functionality (#14667) (d77af00)
plugin-mcp: add depth parameter support to all MCP find resource tools (#14931) (c979fb3)

Localized Status (Experimental) - Each locale can now track and manage its own publication status independently. Publish or unpublish individual locales without affecting others, with locale-aware UI and version history. Requires enabling at both config and collection level. #14667

// payload.config.ts
export default buildConfig({
  experimental: {
    localizeStatus: true,
  },
  // ...
})

// collections/Posts.ts
export const Posts: CollectionConfig = {
  slug: 'posts',
  versions: {
    drafts: {
      localizeStatus: true,
    },
  },
}

⚠️ Migration Required: If you have existing version data, run the provided migration helper to convert _status fields from strings to locale objects. See PR #14667 for full migration guide.

Depth Parameter Support (plugin-mcp) - MCP resource tools now support a depth parameter (0-10) to control relationship population depth. Use depth: 0 for lightweight ID-only responses or higher values for fully populated relationship data. Significantly reduces token count when reading documents. #14931
