Docker

Open WebUI Version

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

follow up suggestions should be in english

Actual Behavior

whenever i start a new chat it seems to pick at random what language the follow ups will be, sometimes it would even start with English follow ups and as i keep chatting it changes to Spanish. I only type in English and from what ive seen the ai doesn't search any non English sites.

Steps to Reproduce

this is on a fresh install with docker compose

As of v0.6.23 of Open WebUI (See 094a82b264):

💬 Language-Aware Follow-Up Suggestions: Enhanced the AI's follow-up question generation to dynamically adapt to the primary language of the current chat. Follow-up prompts will now be suggested in the same language the user and AI are conversing in, ensuring more natural and contextually relevant interactions.

Anyways, you could just modify the Follow Up Generation Prompt in the UI yourself or set an environment variable for it.
