 - 🖥️ **Live terminal server policies.** Administrators can now read an orchestrator terminal server's current policy and lifecycle settings directly in connection settings rather than relying on a locally cached copy. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/2f37e853d1259a901f736a823bad29dcc2c3b130), [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/3005b7bc71fcbd5abc6e73c3e4caa4ea781cdb76)
 - 🌍 **Model privacy at a glance.** Admins can now make a model public or private straight from its menu in the model list, where each model is marked as public, shared, or private. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/fb2ea272952ed96b0db5ac59a861637204100cb6)
 - 🧾 **Group permissions at a glance.** The groups list now shows whether each group uses custom or default permissions, without opening it.

 - 🧬 **Shared pipe model tool calls.** Non-admin users of a shared model built on a pipe or manifold model no longer see the response silently stop right after a tool call. [#26906](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/26906), [#26900](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/26900)
 - 🧰 **Model editor loading.** The model editor no longer fails to open when its tool list can't be loaded, falling back gracefully instead. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/10724d057af13a826c52e92b1c01a031656768d5)
 - 🗃️ **Milvus Lite collection creation.** Setting up collections now succeeds on embedded Milvus Lite, which previously could fail while creating the resource index. [#26911](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/26911)
+- ♻️ **Connection changes take effect immediately.** Saving connection settings now refreshes the model list straight away, instead of leaving the previous models in place until the server was restarted.
+- 🚫 **Disabled OpenAI connections are enforced.** Turning off the OpenAI API now blocks chat requests to it and clears its models, rather than only hiding it from the interface.
+- 🧭 **Sidebar access from the automation editor.** Opening an automation on a phone no longer hides the sidebar button, so you can move around without leaving the editor first.
+- 💬 **Readable error messages.** Errors in a conversation now always show readable text that wraps instead of running off the edge, including errors that arrive wrapped inside another error.
 - ⏳ **Faster licensed startup.** Instances with a license key no longer wait on the license server during startup, so the app becomes ready to serve traffic without that delay. [Commit](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/8f7753331752e72b17ef8f055318ab548a73f4b8)
 - ⏰ **Recurring automation scheduling.** Automations that repeat every few minutes or hours now align to the clock and are no longer wrongly rejected as having no upcoming runs when the server clock is ahead of your timezone.
