Currently, the format chooser page scroll feature doesn't work correctly in some cases.

For example, this feature will not work if we enable the global search.

Steps to replicate:

1. Login as admin.
2. Navigate to Site administrator > Advanced features.
3. Enable (checked) the  Enable global search option.
4. Save changes.
5. Create a course or use an existing one.
6. Edit the course.
7. Change the course format to Single activity.
8. The page will be reloaded.
9. The #id_courseformathdr param is missing in the browser URL.
10. The page is scrolled back to the top of the page.

Expected:

• There is a param called id_courseformathdr in the browser URL.
• The page is scrolled to the Course format section after reload, not the top of the page.

— Original description —

Page scroll position was not preserved after changing course format. This does not appear to meet the test requirements as described in step 6 of MDLQA-16184. Below are the before and after screenshots.

Also, I switched from Single Activity to Weekly format in step 11, I noticed that all of the sections except General are set to "Hidden from students" as seen in the screenshot above. This was unexpected as it was not indicated in the description of the test instructions. Please confirm that this is indeed the desired behaviour.
