Let users search for trashed items/support views

You may create your own view. Just set a "deleted" filter and display all other columns/filter that you want.
Ypu even may palce it into /admin/content/trash path.

Thanks for letting me know. I have set up two views for content and media and I can replace the standard display coming from the trash module.

So far so good. There is only one problem:

I can't prune/delete from this view. The "Operations" button on the right hand side only provides a "Restore" functionality (and not the delete functionality that was introduced in a former update of th module.

Using the "Action" pull down to delete a node gives a permission error: "No access to execute Delete content on the Content ." This applies to all actions.

Can anybody help? Thanks!

To get a "purge" operation ,you can try to use patch from ✨ Add "Purge" operation link Fixed .

I just committed ✨ Add "Purge" operation link Fixed , so views of trashed entities should be fully functional now.

The reason for not providing a Views-based admin UI by default is because the list of "trashable" entity types is configurable, and views are not dynamic like that :)
