Ollama Settings Persistence Issue Fixed
This release addresses a critical bug where Ollama AI configuration settings were not properly persisting when Thunderbird was restarted.
Issues Resolved:
-
Custom Model Names Not Persisting
- Custom Ollama models (e.g.,
qwen2.5:7b-instruct) now correctly persist and display in the settings UI - The dropdown properly shows "Custom" and the model input field is populated with your custom model name
- No more confusion about whether the extension reverted to a default model
- Custom Ollama models (e.g.,
-
Auth Token Not Loading
- Ollama authentication tokens now properly load when reopening settings
- Previously, the token was saved but not restored to the UI
-
AI Settings Not Persisting
- AI temperature slider setting now persists correctly
- Rule-based fallback preference now saves and restores properly
Technical Details:
The root cause was in the settings loading logic in options.js:
- Custom model names were being saved but the UI restoration logic didn't properly handle non-preset model names
- The settings loader was missing
ollamaAuthTokenfrom the retrieval list - Temperature and fallback settings were being saved but not loaded back into the UI elements
