[Koha] problem searching in opac

[Erik Lewis]

Found it:  OpacSuppression

From the manual

Default: Don't hide

Asks: ___ items marked as suppressed from OPAC search results.
Values:
Don't hide -- will show items in OPAC search results if they are marked suppressed
Hide -- will not show items in OPAC search results if they're marked as suppressed
Each bib record with items you want to hide from the OPAC simply need to have the 942n field set to 1. The index then hides it from display in OPAC but will still display it in the Staff Client
