 - 🔓 **Turning off the sign-in form.** The box asking for an email address and a password can now be taken off the sign-in page from the authentication settings, where until now it could only be set before the server started, leaving single sign-on or a directory to sign people in. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/c4a349651e34bf5d0920bb5e26707ae9961ac39f)
 - 🏷️ **Custom file metadata.** Metadata attached to an uploaded file now travels with the pieces that file is split into and arrives with the retrieved sources, the oversized and internal fields left out.

 - 🗑️ **Quick delete for notes and automations.** Holding Shift over a note in the list or grid, or over a row on the automations page, turns its trailing controls into a delete button, removing the entry in one click rather than the three the menu and its confirmation ask for. [#29635](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/29635), [#29633](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/29633), [#29640](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/29640), [#29637](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/29637)
+- 🔀 **Diffs are drawn as diffs.** A diff or patch block in a reply is now laid out as one, with the file and hunk headings, the old and new line numbers, and the added and removed lines picked out down to the part of the line that changed, and a button to switch to the plain text and back. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/254e29b9af634145dde0450451a36f0dfbd8f421)
+- ✒️ **A formatting switch for notes.** A note you can edit carries a Formatting switch in its menu: turned off, Markdown you type or paste stays as the characters you wrote, a paste keeps its plain text, and a web address is left as text, while formatting already in the note is untouched. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/d8f27e745bd31c89efa25cbe0f41bb0f70576fc5)
 - 🎛️ **Filtering the admin model list by where a model comes from.** The models page in the admin settings can now be narrowed to the base models a connection offers or to the ones built in the workspace, alongside the filters for enabled, disabled, visible and hidden. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/9e634c0c56e0a060717f1e24a11b082daf664036)
 - ⚡ **Searching without holding up the server.** Searching the text of chats and knowledge now runs beside the rest of the server rather than in front of it, so a long search no longer keeps other requests waiting. [#29621](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/29621)
 - 🔄 **General improvements.** Various improvements were implemented across the application to enhance performance, stability, and security. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/f1c803d36bae9d429eb630ad26853c9d939262b5)
-- 🌐 **Translation updates.** Translations for Traditional Chinese, Korean, Finnish, Russian, Ukrainian, German, Spanish, and Portuguese (Brazil) were enhanced and expanded, and text that had been fixed in English, from the headings grouping the settings pages to labels and messages across the admin pages, the workspace and notifications, now takes its wording from the interface language.

 ### Fixed

 - 🔒 **Listing one connection's models is for administrators again.** The endpoints that list the models on a single Ollama or OpenAI connection could be reached by a signed-in account of any role, and now check the caller's role. [#29619](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/29619)
 - 🍪 **Cookies reach only the connections told to receive them.** A model connection, tool server or terminal server authenticating as the signed-in person was handed this instance's browser cookies along with the request; that now happens only where the connection's new Forward cookies switch is turned on, which an instance relying on it has to do after upgrading. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/b71744b17823f7a3a9a64cb363e79a7164ed5b23), [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/3cda47cdb449aac970426f0929c9e5f8bb8bd807), [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/f9f815c86220f809fad5ee1300c44f55dea74c79)
 - 🗒️ **A note edit survives leaving the page.** A note's title and its attachments save a moment after they change, and leaving the note inside that moment dropped the save, so the notes list kept showing the old title until the page was reloaded; the pending save now finishes before the next page opens. [#29745](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/29745), [#29744](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/29744)
+- 📋 **Pasting into a note lands where you put it.** A plain paste replaced more of the note than was selected, and a paste into a code block broke out of the block instead of going inside it; both now land exactly where they were dropped. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/d8f27e745bd31c89efa25cbe0f41bb0f70576fc5)
+- 🌍 **A web address someone else types stays as they typed it.** In a note two people are writing at once, a plain web address arriving from the other editor was turned into a link on your screen but not on theirs; it is now left as written. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/d8f27e745bd31c89efa25cbe0f41bb0f70576fc5)
+- 📑 **Documents pulled through Tika 4 keep their shape.** Where document extraction runs against a Tika server on version 4, the text now comes back as Markdown rather than a flat run of characters, so headings, lists and tables survive into what the model reads. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/ba34bee2d17e1c00238c85a8aab1a11a60db164e)
+- ⏳ **Sign-in sessions last as long as the token behind them.** A session with an identity provider was measured by whichever of its two tokens expired first, so where the identity token was the shorter it was renewed early and dropped whenever that renewal failed; it now follows the token it actually calls with, and the shorter one is still respected where an integration is handed it. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/aaaf26fb8ede28854dd660b11b85ba6bafe64007)
 - 🧩 **Tool steps stay in a finished reply.** A reply that called tools showed each step as it ran, then lost them the moment the reply completed, because the provider's closing message replaced everything on screen rather than joining it; the closing message is now merged into what is already there, and a tool call is no longer mistaken for its own result. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/e1bfefdf9f8f2012cecfc7d81079bd6fff147932)
 - 🙋 **Answering in your own words lets you send.** Where the last question a model asks is answered by typing into the other field rather than picking an option, the button that sends the answers stayed greyed out however much was filled in; it now follows what has been entered. [#29494](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/29494), [#29311](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/29311)
 - 🎚️ **Settings you may change save even where others are barred.** An account without permission to change the interface settings had every save through the personal settings refused outright, so its system prompt, notifications, audio, keyboard shortcuts and pinned models could not be kept either, however explicitly they were allowed; the interface settings it may not touch are now left as they are and everything else saves.
