Thanks for the answer, Vinod:)

I’ve fixed it by editing the file wp-includes/blocks/search.php

LINE ‘<button type=”submit” class=”wp-block-search__button %s” %s %s> %s</button>’,
TO
‘<button type=”submit” class=”wp-block-search__button %s” %s %s>Search</button>’,

Works great. Content control + User roles + miniOrange LDAP was the way to go (Once custom roles are created , AD users can be added to them from users section of WP).
Now, AD sync is not working, and might need premium miniOrange or some other plugin, but I don’t care for that at the moment.

Content Control appears to be exactly what I need for doing the restriction. Thanks @threadi ?? Also I can create new custom roles with UserRoles however, UserRoles is not aware of any of my AD users. I might need to find some other plugin that shows AD users along with regular users or maybe talk to miniOrange team about this.

@threadi Thank you. I’ve looked into it but I can’t group my users into regular wordpress roles like editor, author etc. What I’m looking for is to allow a page (say Finance data) to the people who work in Finance.
I could use a solution based on individual user level access, or perhaps by creating custom user groups in WP, or even by allowing users in a particular Organization Unit(OU) in the active directory to certain pages.
