groups_get_group( int $group_id )

Fetch a single group object.

Description

When calling up a group object, you should always use this function instead of instantiating BP_Groups_Group directly, so that you will inherit cache support and pass through the groups_get_group filter.

Parameters

$group_id

(Required) ID of the group.

Return

(BP_Groups_Group) $group The group object.
