Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Trash a published article or category
  2. Press 'Search Tool' for selecting status 'Trashed'
  3. Press the trash icon left of the item (article or category). Don't select 'empty trash', as this button works as expected.

Expected result

Item should be trashed for ever

Actual result

Item returns back to published

System information (as much as possible)

'1 Article / Category published'

Additional comments

Haven't tried it with menus, modules or other stuff. Should be checked there as well.

That icon is a status toggle and the tooltip for the icon when in the trashed state says that clicking on it will publish the item

"trashed for ever" is not a Joomla concept.
When one hovers the Trash icon, one can see the tip "Publish Item"

hmm, right, tooltip says publish item. Then, the icon should be changed for UX purposes, by my humble opinion. It doesn't feel right.

The icon is indicating the current status - not the action
Just as the green tick indicates the published status

I agree though that some of these icons have unexpected actions:
Example: the status with tip Published but has expired etc.
When clicking on the icon, it Unpublishes the item. Tip is not an action.

EDIT: Look also the Archived icon which displays the tip Unpublish item and not the status. In that case it is the action which is proposed.

@infograf768 we have had several issues and pull requests to change that - all have been ignored

I'm closing this issue since it's not a bug but in that case the expectation was wrong.
