Vaultwarden items cant be deleted

The plugin and the stand alone Bitwarden(Vaultwarden) app do not have the ability to delete items anymore. I have to log into the “launch UI” to be able to delete. Does anybody else have this issue?
I went into the admin side, and I’m the only user so I don’t see how I can not have full admin rights in my other apps.

The Bitwarden plugin seems to have lost the ability to delete items, at least when connected to Vaultwarden. The only mentions I can find online relate to items in organizations and collections from around Dec 2024, which doesn’t seem to be relevant to our situation (I noticed this today too)

So what’s the workaround? Log into Vaultwarden, and delete from the dash?

That’s what I did, and in a way it was a blessing, as it forced me to do additional housekeeping, but it would be good to work out what’s wrong.

If anyone has a hosted Bitwarden account and can connect to that, it would be interesting to see if the buttons reappear.

I still have my old hosted Bitwarden account. Interestingly enough, the delete icon was missing on items there as well. But then I force synced my vault, and the icon appeared. I tried the same thing for my Vaultwarden account, but to no avail. The delete icon does not appear.

Honestly, if not for this conversation I likely never would have never noticed. To actually delete an item in my vault is so exceedingly rare, I’m not surprised it was overlooked, in an update.

I guess this is a quirk to live with. There are just a few things I need to clean up.

Hosted here. I’m getting the same issue, the only way to delete the items is through web UI.
