Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I have also searched in the CLOSED issues AND CLOSED discussions and found no related items (your issue might already be addressed on the development branch!).
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.8.10

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Windows 11

Browser (if applicable)

Firefox Latest

Confirmation

  • I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
  • I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
  • I have included the browser console logs.
  • I have included the Docker container logs.
  • I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
  • I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
  • I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
  • Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
  • Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
  • List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
  • Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
  • Include any files or environmental changes,
  • Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
  • Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.

Expected Behavior

Reordering models via Admin Panel -> Models -> Settings -> Display and drag and drop should re-order models for all users smoothly. This means;

  • Dragging and dropping should insert the model at the requested index without changing the surrounding order of models
  • Tabs should not crash when attempting to move 3-4 models around in the list order

Actual Behavior

  • Moving a model to a particular location, often (~80% in my experience) leads to the next model moving to the end of the list
  • Enough moves within the list and my tab and openwebui instance crashes leading me to have to close and re-create the tab

Steps to Reproduce

  • Navigate to Admin Panel -> Models -> Settings -> Display
  • Attempt to move models around in the list continuously (>= 4 times)
  • Observe erratic behavior.

Logs & Screenshots

No logs appear in console. Tab completely freezes.

Interesting bug. I am able to reproduce this one on the latest dev commit in Firefox browser.

Can also reproduce. Although weirdly enough tho, the behavior is appearing on Firefox Developer and Safari but not in Chrome. Because in Chrome, I cannot interact with the elements and thus not move them.
