Frontend Search Settings -> Post Types

You can select and edit which custom post types you want to be selectable on the frontend.

The default state (checked or unchecked) of the custom post type checkboxes on the front end corresponds to the included post types.

Note when using checkboxes

If a post type is included on the Search Sources panel, it will be checked on the frontend settings box.
