Deep Dive Into Our Posts Collection [LIVE CODING WITH PAYLOADCMS]

Описание: Live coding doesn’t always go well. I essentially break everything in this video, but I do get around to fixing it in the next one. This video will still come in handy for those times that you need to troubleshoot your project. What better way to learn than to watch me suffer?

The postCount hook I created is also over-engineered. I will show you how I fixed it in a later video.

In this video, I take a deep dive into configuring the Posts collection in our PayloadCMS project. Learn how to customize your blog's backend to support better content management and enhance its functionality. From setting up relationships to adding dynamic fields and debugging common issues, this tutorial covers everything you need to build a robust blog system.

What You’ll Learn:
Setting up and configuring the Posts collection in PayloadCMS.
Adding dynamic fields such as authors, categories, summaries, and descriptions.
Using custom hooks to generate slugs and track post counts.
Filtering options for author fields to streamline content creation.
Implementing conditional fields for media and other optional components.
Debugging field relationships and improving backend reliability.

This tutorial is ideal for developers working with PayloadCMS who want to enhance their blog functionality or manage content more effectively.
