Bug Report

Description

When I start a conversation with a model which is no longer present and decide to use a new model and keep using that conversation, I always have to select a model again. This is not the case as long as I have this conversation opened. If I switch to another conversation, then back, I have to select a model again. Of course, I could start a new conversation to fix this issue but I'd like to have the same topics within one conversation.

Bug Summary:
I have to keep selecting a model when I started a conversation with a removed model when I log back in, change the conversation or simply leave that page.

Steps to Reproduce:
Start a conversation with any model, delete the model you've chosen for that conversation, open up said conversation again, select a new model and keep the conversation going. Then leave the page (conversation), reenter it and you have to select a new model although I have already new entries with a new model.

Expected Behavior:
Maybe it just should stick with the latest model selected rather than the initial model selected when starting the conversation.

Actual Behavior:
I believe that "Steps to Reproduce:" describes it already.

Environment

  • Open WebUI Version: [0.1.125] - 2024-05-19

  • Ollama (if applicable): v0.1.38

  • Operating System: Windows 11 23H2

  • Browser (if applicable): Not browser related.

Reproduction Details

Confirmation:

  • I have read and followed all the instructions provided in the README.md.
  • I am on the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.

Logs and Screenshots

Screenshots (if applicable):
Started initial conversation with Llama2 (since I deleted Llama2, this is to be expected):
Started_initial_conversation_with_llama2_01

After deleting Llama2, I select Llama3 to keep the conversation going:
Now_using_llama3_02

Reload the page or do any other action which will change the page, then go back to that conversation:
After_refresh_select_model_again_03

Installation Method

Docker (Debian system)

Additional Information

Not aware of anything to add here.

Fixed :) Looks good now. I have tested it and it will now always stick with the latest used model when the conversation continues. Thanks.
