Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction.
I'm talking about the search done on all courses, not only on the ones the user is enrolled in, and that uses get_courses_search. But following your answer I checked that now , and I found that there, too, there is a check for viewing hidden courses https://github.com/moodle/moodle/blob/master/lib/datalib.php#L830. Before, I was only looking at the SQL query... So thank you.

Hi Lea, the plugin uses the enrol_get_my_courses() moodle function to fetch courses. If you look at https://github.com/moodle/moodle/blob/master/lib/enrollib.php#L727 you will see that the list of courses are not returned if the user does not have the capability to view hidden courses. So in short, only users who can see hidden courses would be able to see them in the results i.e students generally cannot unless you allow them to view hidden courses ( which I wouldnt recommend)

Thank you for a great plugin, we're very happy with it.
There is one thing we would like, and that is - that hidden or non-active courses won't appear in the results.
Is there a way to do that?

To make this plugin visible for all users logging in to your system, you can add the block to the front page by editing the front page settings under the Administration block and then clicking on turn editing on.

I'm not sure what do you mean by normal search but my guess it you can replace this plugin with every search field on the moodle site. It has a specific use only for courses.

@Narissa Bayler
I cant seem to replicate the error on IE11.. I'm afraid I dont have a copy of IE10 so cant really test . Would you mind sending me some screenshots of the error ?

Great block but each time the Enter key is pressed (when using IE10 - our default browser) the next block is docked. This continues until there are no blocks left after the search block. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
