    1) I have admin roles
    2) I cleared all the Cache pages. I even deactivated my plugin related to cache storing.(it was “w3 total cache” Plugin).
    2) I have troubleshoot my website through “Health and Check plugin” (no Issues at all).
    6) I Deactivated all the plugins too.
    3) i even reinstalled my wordpress after backing up my website.
    4) After re installation, I just restore my DB and Upload, Its still preventing to delete blog post. (i am using Updraft plugin for Backup).

    So,this isn’t a clean site? You are restoring a previous site?

    Did you try this plugin?

    Yes i was restoring previous site. Thanks for your help but i solved my problems by reviewing my Roles (by installing a plugin) after trying each and every condition. I installed “PublishPress Capabilities” Plugin and Assigned Post Deletion Authority to Admin. and Its Solved.

    Hello Bravo1110,

    You are a life safer. PublishPress Capabilities worked a treat.

    Had the same issue. I then changed the status to draft using “quick edit”. (had to do it in list mode/All Posts). After that I was able to delete it.
