Pre-submission checklist

  • I have searched for existing open or closed issue reports with the same problem.

Description

Thank you for this amazing App!

I imported quite a big Trello ecosystem. Worked like a charm.
It also imported all archived content, which is fine.
In my case, I need/want to delete that archived content.
But I can't un-archive those projects to explicitely delete it. It shows the message:
Error: Project does not exist.

Vikunja Version

Vikunja api version v1.1.0, go1.25.6, latest stable docker image

Browser and version

144.0.7559.134 (official build) (arm64)

Can you reproduce the bug on the Vikunja demo site?

No

So the issue only appears when trying to un-archive such a project?

Is it a sub project or a top level one?

Hi @kolaente,
exactly.
I choose Projects from the Menu → select show archived → shows me all projects that ever existed in Trello → enter one of those archived projects → then I select Un-Archive from the project's burger menu (with the intention to delete it) → throws the error as shown.

If it is top level or sub I can't tell exactly from the UI, because mentioned projects are not showing up in the left-side menu and thus I don't see the hierarchy.
I'd guess they are all sub, because all imported Trello projects (also the non-archived) were sub under a top level project named after the original Trello Workspace.
But thinking about it this theory might also be wrong since I was able to delete this 'Trello Workspace/Top Level project', and I think this is only possible when no sub project exists.

This seems like some projects have their direct parent removed when they should have that. https://github.com/go-vikunja/vikunja/pull/2296 adds a cli command that fixes that, running the command should allow you to delete or un-archive the projects again.
