Hello,

I have fixed it quite easily in my 1.9.4+ by applying the attached patch to the function sync_metacourse() in lib/moodlelib.php (two lines to change)

It works nicely when assigning a NEW hidden role attribution to the parent of some metacourses and the non visibility propages itself to all metacourses.

If the 'target user' has already the role in the metacourses (ie non hidden) you have to remove it from each metacourse and let Moodle complains about 'Role of user \"$a\" was automatically reassigned, please unassign the role in child courses instead.' You will then see that that user is first removed from the metacourse and then reappears with the wanted hidden attribution

Cheers
