fix: use latest draft version data when trashing unpublished documents by PatrikKozak · Pull Request #15981 · payloadcms/payload

PatrikKozak · 2026-03-17T15:12:14Z

Overview

Fixes document data being silently lost when bulk-trashing draft-only documents on collections with trash: true and versions.drafts enabled.

Localized fields are the most visible symptom, but any field data that exists only in the versions table (i.e. never published) is affected.

Key Changes

In the bulk update operation, queryDrafts (versions table) is now also used when fetching documents for a trash attempt, not only when shouldSaveDraft is true

Root Cause

Draft saves skip updateOne on the main collection table (isSavingDraft === true), so the main table only reflects the last published state. When bulk-trashing, the operation was reading docWithLocales from the main table via find() — picking up stale/empty data — and creating a new version from that stale snapshot.

Single-document trash (updateByID) was unaffected because it uses getLatestCollectionVersion(), which always reads from the versions table.

Fix

// Before
if (hasDraftsEnabled(collectionConfig) && shouldSaveDraft) {

// After
if (hasDraftsEnabled(collectionConfig) && (shouldSaveDraft || isTrashAttempt)) {

Fixes #15980
