I can't seem to find a way to delete imported web pages from my Reference folder. The selection is greyed-out "Edit" and I can't seem to find an alternate place to delete from.
Also, doing key-commands that are typical "delete" commands in other apps will not remove the item either.
Hope that helps! :-)

I cannot reproduce this. Importing a web page, I can select it, and press the DELETE key. A warning sheet comes up, and after dismissing that, it gets deleted. Additionally, the contextual menu has a delete option which works.
Are there any steps prior to this which cause a site to be un-deletable? If you quit Scrivener and load it up again, does the problem persist?

I've tried sending this .scriv file a few times ... it doesn't seem to want to upload. Grrr. Arrr.
Here's the text I was adding to the failed email to explain my discoveries so far:
The research files *can* be deleted using the keyboard 'delete' key, but I tend to use menu or key commands, so didn't even think to try that until someone else mentioned it. (I've done it that way for a couple of decades now, so it is a deeply-ingrained habit).
Otherwise, though, the menu option remains greyed out.
Hope this copy helps you figure it out. :-)
Cheers, Annik

Ah, I think I know the "problem" here - sorry, I misread your first post. The reason the option is greyed out in "Edit" is that the "Edit" menu is specifically for text, so it is only enabled when text is selected (it deletes selected text, not files in the binder).
I'll think about this. Thanks, Keith
