Additional information
@Faisalarbisoft: I found a similar issue reported a while ago that's worth reading: https://github.com/openedx/wg-build-test-release/issues/164
I'll tag @ghassanmas and @regisb since they were around by the time of the first report. Could you give us a hand here? Thanks!
To the best of my recollection, this is not a bug but a feature that is implemented in a very confusing way. Setting the catalogue visibility as "none" is not meant to affect how the courses are displayed in the /courses page. But I think that we should change that behaviour, because it's really not what the user would expect.
Hello @fayyazahmed66! You marked this test as passing in the Redwood spreadsheet. You could add the steps you followed here and in the testing spreadsheet to move this forward. Thanks!
@mariajgrimaldi thanks for pointing out. I have missed this use case and test with "both" only. Let me retest.
@jmakowski1123: A few months ago, we discussed this issue in the BTR WG, and the consensus was to change the strategy we've been using until now and involve the product WG in defining what this feature actually is. Can you confirm that the product WG will take a look at it? Let me know whether I remember it correctly. Thanks!
