+### 0.9.0
+
+#### A `date` field for a day with no time and no zone
+
+<!-- changeset: date-field-type -->
+
+_First in 0.9.0._
+
+**What changed.** A new scalar field type, `date`, holds a calendar day as a `YYYY-MM-DD` string, edited with a day picker. `datetime` stores an instant, so a day picked in one zone can read as the day before in another; a `date` is the same day everywhere. A save and a production build refuse a value that is not a real day, such as `2026-02-30` or `2026-5-1`; YAML rolls an unquoted `2026-02-30` forward first, so quote hand-written days. A hand-written unquoted `2024-05-01` in md or mdx frontmatter reads as that day in every zone, and survives a save on its own line. `list: true` is refused on a `date`; use an object list with a `date` field inside, which `itemTitleField` may name. `stampOnPublish` stays on `datetime`, and `datetime` values and checks are unchanged. Editor field errors now meet 4.5:1 contrast.
+
+**To adopt.** Change `type: 'string'` to `type: 'date'` on a field that holds `YYYY-MM-DD`: `TypeFromEntrySchema` still gives `string`, and every `YYYY-MM-DD` value stays as it is. A production build lists any entry whose value is not a real day, such as `2026-5-1`; fix those by hand. A custom field type that was named `date` keeps its `customRenderers` entry but is now checked as a `date`, so rename it if its values differ. See [Field Types](https://github.com/safeinsights/canopycms/blob/264691297c186d4a066f0455b4a20a66a84290be/.changeset/README.md#field-types).
+
+**Now deletable.** A `string` field with a hand-written `YYYY-MM-DD` format check, and site code that reads a `datetime` back into a day.

 **What changed.** `CanopyCmsService` takes `clerkOrganizationsAsGroups` (default `true`, unchanged), which the worker honours; in a deployment it, not the plugin's `useOrganizationsAsGroups`, decides the groups. When Clerk refuses the organization list with a 403 (Organizations disabled), the refresh now writes users with no groups and logs a warning, instead of failing whole; any other failure still keeps the last snapshot. Memberships are fetched instance-wide rather than per user.

 **What changed.** A `type: 'reference', list: true` field now edits as rows in stored order, like an `object` list: drag a row or use its "…" menu to move or remove it, open a row to swap its entry in place, and pick from Add under the rows to append. Neither control offers an entry the list already holds. Any `list: true` field, and any `block` field, takes `maxItems`. The editor stops adding at the cap and says why, a save over it is refused, and a production build fails on an entry over it, naming the entry, field, count and cap. Adding `maxItems` to a list that already holds more therefore fails the build until an editor removes the extra items. `maxItems` on a field that holds no items is refused when the entry schema registry is created.

A per-call `seo`/`group`/`fields` still overrides it. The free `generateContentSitemap` takes `seo` as an argument and refuses to run without it when the config sets one; `createNextCanopyContext` and the AI content config refuse a leftover `seo`. A reference picker now badges an entry hidden from search as "Hidden from search", and picking one adds a note naming the setting on that entry's form, since a page listing only indexed entries won't show it. A reference field takes `optionSort`: `'label'` (the default), `'collection'`, or `{ field, direction }`. Point `field` at an ISO date, since strings compare as text.
