No trash/delete option

  • I created a new post type called “portfolio”. But when I create new items, there is no option to delete. Even under the list, I have the Edit | Quick Edit | View – but no Trash.

    If I use the bulk option, even to try and delete one page, I get the following error:
    “Sorry, you are not allowed to move this item to the Trash.”

    What is causing this and how can I fix it? Thank you in advance

  • When creating the post type what are your settings under
    Advanced Settings => Permissions?

    Specifically, did you Rename Capabilities?

  • Thanks, John. I didn’t change anything, but after reading your response and reading more about capabilities I realized a previous plugin may have changed the permissions. I installed a free plugin called “Reset Roles and Capabilities”, and the problem was fixed.
