 By default, posts will be kept in the trash [for 30
 days](https://codex.wordpress.org/Trash_status#:~:text=pull%2Ddown%20menu.-,Default%20Days%20before%20Permanently%20Deleted,are%20deleted%20and%20some%20remain)
 before they are discarded for good.

 I have encountered many users who lost content because they did not know
 about this 30 day limit.

 I propose we use the value set in
 [empty_trash_days](https://codex.wordpress.org/Trash_status) and display
 it alongside the "1 post moved to the Trash" message and/or on the trash
 section itself.
