 I have custom posts 'manuals' and taxonomy 'manuals-category' for it.
 {{{
 add_action( 'init', 'create_manual_post_type' );
 function create_manual_post_type()
 {
         register_post_type('manual',
                 array(
                         'label' => 'Manuals',
                         'public' => TRUE,
                         'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'manuals',
 'with_front' => true),
                         'has_archive' => true,
                         'public' => true,
                         'exclude_from_search' => TRUE, //This is for
 exclude my manuals when I make search for word 'wordpress' like
 "http://myblog.com/?s=wordpress&submit=submit"
                 )
         );

         register_taxonomy(
 'manuals-category',
 'manual',
                 array(
                         'hierarchical'=>false,
                         'label'=>'Manual Category',
                         'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'manuals-category',
 'with_front' => true)
                         )
 );

         flush_rewrite_rules(false);

 }
 }}}
 I want use 'exclude_from_search' parameter to prevent custom posts are
 visible when somebody searches keywords in my blog.
 If I state 'exclude_from_search'=>TRUE my custom posts disappear on pages
 like  http://myblog.com/manuals-category/{slug}.
 {slug} is a term of 'manuals-category' taxonomy. Archive page opens but
 there are no posts in the Loop. When I state 'exclude_from_search'=>FALSE
 all is correct.

 I suppose it is not documented behavior
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type] and
 bug.
