Hi there!

Thanks for the ticket and patch. The 56064.patch​ patch makes sense to me and it's better to check the correct escape function for URL's enhancement.

commit keyword added.

Hi there, thanks for the patch!

It looks like esc_attr() was used here as of [12051] / #10252, since esc_url() did not work correctly with some accented characters at the time, see #10859.

Since #10859 was fixed in [12199], and esc_url() no longer returns an empty string for the URL listed there in my testing, I think we should indeed be able to use esc_url() here.
