Choose a built-in preset

• compact: short formatted text with inline tools.
• standard: general rich text with lists, blockquote, and fixed toolbar.
• structured-content: headings, horizontal rule, uploads, and richer formatting.
• article: structured content plus inline code and relationships.
• product-description: constrained headings, lists, links, and uploads.

Treat these as contracts. Override only the differences your content model requires.

Define an organization preset

import {
  createEditor,
  defineEditorPreset,
} from "@nexload-sdk/payload-editor";

const landingPage = defineEditorPreset({
  features: {
    paragraph: true,
    heading: { sizes: ["h2", "h3"] },
    bold: true,
    link: { autoLink: true, maxDepth: 1 },
    inlineToolbar: true,
  },
});

export const editor = createEditor({ preset: landingPage });

Add native Blocks

import { BlocksFeature } from "@payloadcms/richtext-lexical";
import { createEditor } from "@nexload-sdk/payload-editor";

createEditor({
  preset: "article",
  extendFeatures: [BlocksFeature({ blocks: [Callout, Gallery] })],
});

Extensions append after managed features. If a native provider replaces a managed feature, first set the managed key to false.

Restrict relationships

Set allowedCollections and maxDepth on link, upload, or relationship. These options constrain editor feature configuration; Payload access control still decides what the user may read or select.
