Bug: The Version Selection Panel Didn’t Show Up

In this article, we will be discussing a bug that occurred in the ComfyUI Manager, specifically with the version selection panel not showing up when installing other custom nodes. This issue was reported after installing the Model Manager, and it was found that the panel had appeared at the very bottom layer. However, after disabling the Model Manager, the issue disappeared. We will be going through the environment, expected behavior, actual behavior, steps to reproduce, debug logs, browser logs, and setting JSON to identify the root cause of this issue.

The environment in which this issue occurred is as follows:

Operating System: Windows 11
Python Version: 3.12.9
Is Electron: Not specified
ComfyUI Version: 0.3.29
ComfyUI Frontend Version: 1.16.9
ComfyUI-Model-Manager Version: Nightly 2.6.0

When installing other custom nodes, a version selection panel usually appears. This panel allows users to select the version of the node they want to install. It is an essential feature of the ComfyUI Manager, and its absence can cause confusion and inconvenience to users.

After installing the Model Manager, the version selection panel did not show up when using the ComfyUI Manager to install other custom nodes. However, it was later found that the panel had appeared at the very bottom layer. This behavior is unexpected and can cause issues with the installation process.

The issue occurs as soon as the Model Manager is installed. To reproduce the issue, follow these steps:

Install the Model Manager.
Open the ComfyUI Manager.
Attempt to install other custom nodes.
Observe that the version selection panel does not show up.

Unfortunately, there are no debug logs available for this issue.

There are no browser logs available for this issue.

There is no setting JSON available for this issue.

No response.

In conclusion, the version selection panel did not show up when installing other custom nodes after installing the Model Manager. However, the panel had appeared at the very bottom layer. After disabling the Model Manager, the issue disappeared. This issue highlights the importance of testing and debugging in software development. It also emphasizes the need for clear and concise documentation to help users troubleshoot issues.

Based on the analysis of this issue, the following recommendations are made:

Improve testing and debugging: The issue could have been identified earlier if there were more comprehensive tests and debugging procedures in place.
Provide clear documentation: Clear and concise documentation can help users troubleshoot issues and provide valuable feedback to developers.
Investigate the Model Manager: The Model Manager may be the root cause of this issue. Investigating its functionality and interactions with the ComfyUI Manager can help identify the underlying problem.

Future work on this issue should focus on:

Investigating the Model Manager: Further investigation into the Model Manager's functionality and interactions with the ComfyUI Manager can help identify the root cause of this issue.
Improving testing and debugging: Comprehensive tests and debugging procedures can help identify issues earlier and prevent similar problems in the future.
Providing clear documentation: Clear and concise documentation can help users troubleshoot issues and provide valuable feedback to developers.

By following these recommendations and future work, we can improve the overall quality and reliability of the ComfyUI Manager and provide a better experience for users.
