Hi @MihaTomsic,
BookStack v0.27.5 specifically addressed an issue where comments could not be deleted. Please could you try updating to the latest BookStack version and see if the issue persists?

Updating to 0.27.5 worked great.
Coments can be deleted and created.
Is it safe to just do git pull on minor releases? Or would it be better to do the composer and artisan steps?
I am new to php/mysql web apps.

@MihaTomsic In regards to updating, the update command in the BookStack documentation is:

git pull origin release && composer install && php artisan migrate
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan view:clear

The composer and artisan steps are necessary to bring in any changes in packages or dependencies.

These steps essentially say, "Download new code, install any updated packages, update any changed database tables, remove cached files, update the page templates."

I've found that updating php apps is remarkably easy when they follow this method. Always be sure to run the commands as whatever user 'owns' the directory that BookStack lives in on your instance to avoid permissions issues.
