#7388 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

`bp_get_new_group_id()` should return an integer

Description

Since [7790], it's returned a string, because it's passed through esc_attr(). We should sanitize using intval() instead.

This is technically a compatibility break, but it was fairly recently introduced and, I think, it's for proper reasons. Any objections to changing it?

In 11299:

Return an integer from bp_get_new_group_id().

Sanitization techniques introduced in [7790] inadvertently caused
the value returned from this function to be a string, inconsistent
with the documentation and with previous behavior.

Fixes #7388.
