Feature Request

Please bring back ollama base model management, pull new models and updates


Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This used to be very easy I could just add the value i needed for a terminal ollama pull NameofBaseModel:##B

I have created agents (that are called model?) and have used the new openwebui website.
I can no longer add new base models via open web ui as a admin to ollama.

Describe the solution you'd like
If you need a customized json file to import to add a new base model, for reasons, please help the user make it on a form.
allow admins to easily add new base models.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Reread you documents, there's a gap, in adding base models. You can't do it in workspaces and you can't do it in the admin panel any more.
I have tried to create json files to import, they import without error, but I've not been successful, it just won't run.
the only way to add a base model is via terminal
