This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
I just came across this tickbox setting on post type -
exclude_from_search
Whether to exclude posts with this post type from search results.
Would this exclude items from the websites search?
Solution:
The option "exclude_from_search" works for wordpress built-in search page, see document:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type#exclude_from_search
Whether to exclude posts with this post type from front end search results.
There isn't such kind of feature to include/exclude in web/google search, you might consider creating your custom robots.txt file:
