+## Localized fields and MongoDB indexes
+
+When you set `index: true` or `unique: true` on a localized field, MongoDB creates one index **per locale path** (e.g., `slug.en`, `slug.da-dk`, etc.). With many locales and indexed fields, this can quickly approach MongoDB's per-collection index limit.
+
+If you know you'll query specifically by a locale, index only those locale paths using the collection-level `indexes` option instead of setting `index: true` on the localized field. This approach gives you more control and helps avoid unnecessary indexes.
+
+```ts
+import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
+
+export const Pages: CollectionConfig = {
+  fields: [{ name: 'slug', type: 'text', localized: true }],
+  indexes: [
+    // Index English slug only (rather than all locales)
+    { fields: ['slug.en'] },
+    // You could also make it unique:
+    // { fields: ['slug.en'], unique: true },
+  ],
+}
+```
