[Bug 1771950] [NEW] Fixing delete wallpost still has a problem

 

Public bug reported:

In Bug 1767220 we fixed up the problem with showing the delete wallpost
button

Except we failed to fix one scenario and that was checking if the viewer
of the page is an institutional admin of the page owner.

In the original code we sent the $owner id through as an integer, ie
intval($owner)

But now we send it as a string

         $item->deletable =
PluginBlocktypeWall::can_delete_wallpost($item->from, $owner);

And the check in can_delete_wallpost() is for a User object or integer
so fails and throws error

We need to fix up the passing of the id to be integer again
