Bug Fixes

Upload Field Validation Fix

Fixed an issue where upload fields were being treated as required during validation even when they were explicitly set as not required. This bug was causing form submission errors when users attempted to submit forms with empty upload fields that should have been optional.

The fix ensures that upload fields now properly respect their required configuration setting, allowing forms with optional upload fields to be submitted without validation errors.

New Features

No new features were added in this release.

Security Updates

No security fixes were included in this release.

Performance Improvements

No specific performance improvements were included in this release.

Impact Summary

This release addresses a specific bug with upload field validation in Payload CMS. Previously, upload fields were incorrectly being treated as required during validation regardless of their configuration, causing unnecessary validation errors and preventing form submissions when optional upload fields were left empty.

With this fix, upload fields now properly respect their required configuration setting, allowing for a more intuitive and expected user experience when working with forms that include optional file uploads. This change improves the overall usability of the CMS for content editors and eliminates the need for developers to implement workarounds for this validation issue.
