 - 🧩 **Prompt Variables with Automatic Input Modal**: Prompts containing variables now display a clean, auto-generated input modal that **autofocuses on the first field** for instant value entry—just select the prompt and fill in exactly what’s needed, reducing friction and guesswork.
 - 🔡 **Variable Input Typing in Prompts**: Define input types for prompt variables (e.g., text, textarea, number, select, color, date, map and more), giving everyone a clearer and more precise prompt-building experience for advanced automation or workflows.
 - 🚀 **Base Model List Caching**: Cache your base model list to speed up model selection and reduce repeated API calls; toggle this in Admin Settings > Connections for responsive model management even in large or multi-provider setups.
-- ⏱️ **Configurable Model List Cache TTL**: Take control over model list caching with the new `MODEL_LIST_CACHE_TTL` environment variable. Set a custom cache duration in seconds to balance performance and freshness, reducing API requests in stable environments or ensuring rapid updates when models change frequently.

 - 🔖 **Reference Notes as Knowledge or in Chats**: Use any note as knowledge for a model or folder, or reference it directly from chat—integrate living documentation into your Retrieval Augmented Generation workflows or discussions, bridging knowledge and action.
 - 📝 **Chat Directly with Notes (Experimental)**: Ask questions about any note, and directly edit or update notes from within a chat—unlock direct AI-powered brainstorming, summarization, and cleanup, like having your own collaborative AI canvas.
 - 🤝 **Collaborative Notes with Multi-User Editing**: Share notes with others and collaborate live—multiple users can edit a note in real-time, boosting cooperative knowledge building and workflow documentation.

 - 📱 **Mobile Experience Polished**: The "new chat" button is back in mobile, plus core navigation and input controls have been smoothed out for better usability on phones and tablets.
 - ⚙️ **General Backend Refactoring**: Extensive refactoring delivers a faster, more reliable, and robust backend experience—improving chat speed, model management, and day-to-day reliability.
 - 🌍 **Expanded & Improved Translations**: Enjoy a more accessible and intuitive experience thanks to comprehensive updates and enhancements for Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), German, French, Catalan, Irish, and Spanish translations throughout the interface.
-- 📄 **OpenDocument Text (.odt) Support**: Seamlessly upload and process `.odt` files from open-source office suites like LibreOffice and OpenOffice, expanding your ability to build knowledge from a wider range of document formats.
-- 📑 **Enhanced Markdown Document Splitting**: Improve knowledge retrieval from Markdown files with a new header-aware splitting strategy. This method intelligently chunks documents based on their header structure (`#`, `##`, etc.), preserving the original context and hierarchy for more accurate and relevant RAG results.

 - 📚 **Full Context Mode for Knowledge Bases**: When adding a knowledge base to a folder or custom model, you can now toggle full context mode for the entire knowledge base. This bypasses the usual chunking and retrieval process, making it perfect for leaner knowledge bases.
-- 🕰️ **Configurable OAuth Timeout**: Enhance login reliability by setting a custom timeout (`OAUTH_TIMEOUT`) for all OAuth providers (Google, Microsoft, GitHub, OIDC), preventing authentication failures on slow or restricted networks.

 - 🎨 **Accessibility & High-Contrast Theme Enhancements**: Major accessibility overhaul with significant updates to the high-contrast theme. Improved focus visibility, ARIA labels, and semantic HTML ensure core components like the chat interface and model selector are fully compliant and readable for visually impaired users.
 - ↕️ **Resizable System Prompt Fields**: Conveniently resize system prompt input fields to comfortably view and edit lengthy or complex instructions, improving the user experience for advanced model configuration.
-- 🔧 **Granular Update Check Control**: Gain finer control over outbound connections with the new `ENABLE_VERSION_UPDATE_CHECK` flag. This allows administrators to disable version update checks independently of the full `OFFLINE_MODE`, perfect for environments with restricted internet access that still need to download embedding models.
-- 🗃️ **Configurable Qdrant Collection Prefix**: Enhance scalability by setting a custom `QDRANT_COLLECTION_PREFIX`. This allows multiple Open WebUI instances to share a single Qdrant cluster safely, ensuring complete data isolation between separate deployments without conflicts.

 - ⚙️ **Improved Default Database Performance**: Enhanced out-of-the-box performance by setting smarter database connection pooling defaults, reducing API response times for users on non-SQLite databases without requiring manual configuration.
-- 🔧 **Configurable Redis Key Prefix**: Added support for the `REDIS_KEY_PREFIX` environment variable, allowing multiple Open WebUI instances to share a Redis cluster with isolated key namespaces for improved multi-tenancy.

 - ➡️ **Forward User Context to Reranker**: For advanced RAG integrations, user information (ID, name, email, role) can now be forwarded as HTTP headers to external reranking services, enabling personalized results or per-user access control.
 - ⚙️ **PGVector Connection Pooling**: Enhance performance and stability for PGVector-based RAG by enabling and configuring the database connection pool. New environment variables allow fine-tuning of pool size, timeout, and overflow settings to handle high-concurrency workloads efficiently.

 - 🧾 **Ollama API Compatibility**: Fixed model parameter naming in the API to ensure uninterrupted compatibility for all Ollama endpoints.
 - 🛠️ **Detection for 'text/html' Files**: Files loaded with docling/tika are now reliably detected as the correct type, improving knowledge ingestion and document parsing.
 - 🔐 **OAuth Login Stability**: Resolved a critical OAuth bug that caused login failures on subsequent attempts after logging out. The user session is now completely cleared on logout, ensuring reliable and secure authentication across all supported providers (Google, Microsoft, GitHub, OIDC).
-- 🚪 **OAuth Logout and Redirect Reliability**: The OAuth logout process has been made more robust. Logout requests now correctly use proxy environment variables, ensuring they succeed in corporate networks. Additionally, the custom `WEBUI_AUTH_SIGNOUT_REDIRECT_URL` is now properly respected for all OAuth/OIDC configurations, ensuring a seamless sign-out experience.
-- 📜 **Banner Newline Rendering**: Banners now correctly render newline characters (`\n`), ensuring that multi-line announcements and messages are displayed with their intended formatting.
