[GH-ISSUE #17192] feat: Implement autosend suggested prompts #18200
Reference in New Issue
Block a user
Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Problem Description
It is a minor feature, but with many starters on openwebui trained all do the same mistake
Prompt suggestions as provided in the model are mostly clicked via mouse.
now the user waits that something is happening. But nothing is happening as they do not see they need to click now again on send or to press enter.
And this I had to 100% of the users!!!
So IMHO this is a UX which shall be improved
what is missing, if the user selects a one of "Prompt suggestions" that this prompt is being sent immediately
afaik a js onclick() event could autosend this.
It shall be activated by default and shall be a configurable toggle for admins
Desired Solution you'd like
default behavior: on clicking suggested prompt, this prompt shall be auto sent
Alternatives Considered
leave it as it is, but bad UX
Additional Context
all my trained persons, have failed on this basic test of the UI => UX is matter of improvement here

Could we please make this feature optional, either via an environment variable or a toggle in the admin UI? I preferred the previous implementation, as it allowed more flexibility in using and modifying the initial prompt. Personally, I often start with a suggested prompt and then edit specific sections as needed.

@deployn you can toggle it in the settings > Interface settings
@grigio commented on GitHub (Sep 14, 2025):
I think this is a regression, I use suggested prompts as "partial prompts" so if it autosend I can't edit them anymore

@grigio you can toggle it in the settings > Interface settings

@Classic298 Thanks, it works
@mfgeary commented on GitHub (Oct 7, 2025):
Is there an admin setting to toggle this globally? Or is it per-user only?
@dpalic commented on GitHub (Oct 28, 2025):
@tjbck thank you for the fix! works great
@Classic298 commented on GitHub (Oct 28, 2025):
@mfgeary per-user only unfortunately.
I am thinking of a potential solution to this and all similar issues where admins can define global default values for the Interface settings for all users, what do you think of this?
