Check Existing Issues

• I have searched the existing issues and discussions.
• I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.15

Ollama Version (if applicable)

N/A

Operating System

Debian Kernel 6.8.12-10-pve

Browser (if applicable)

Firefox

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

When a model attempts rendering of an invalid mermaid template it should show the error image 100% of the time, to communicate rendering failed.

Actual Behavior

That does not happen, instead, it only shows in the shared to openwebui community link.

Steps to Reproduce

Ask model to generate a mermaid code block (e.g. Write me a mermaid graph about going outside for exercise.). I used Mistral: Mixtral 8x22B Instruct for this example.
See it complete successfully.
Ask it to add details in brackets (). The exact prompt i used was Add extra details in brackets ()
Watch prompt fail to render, silently.
Click Share to open webui community link
Hit Publish
See that there is still no error.
Press shift+refresh to force refresh.
See that there is now the rendering error.

I'm aware of this, however, should the error message not be displayed in all scenarios, not just in the case of sharing it to community? There is no indication that the mermaid is invalid when in a chat window, apart from it not rendering.
