I have tried to add a call for the thumbnail to the content.php in theif ( is_search() ) section but the thumbnail still isn’t showing in the search results.

		if ( is_search() ) : // Only display Excerpts for Search ?>
            <div class="entry-summary">
                <?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?>
                <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
            </div><!-- .entry-summary -->

I also tried to remove this section but that doesn’t work either.

How do I get the thumbnail to show in the search results?

@Trishah: Can you send me your site URL? I need to check in your site and see which theme are you using it.

[Trishah]

ugh. Sorry, I should have told you that. I am using a child theme for CatchBox. My development install can be found here: http://trishah.com/clients/sofia/site/

@Trishah: You code looks like just replace that
<?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?> with

<?php if( has_post_thumbnail() ):?>
	<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', 'catchbox' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark">
		<?php the_post_thumbnail('featured-slider'); ?>
	</a>
<?php endif; ?>

then you need to check in those post has featured image or not. If those post don’t have featured image then it will not display the image. See this for featured image http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image

Yes, that is the answer. Thank you very much Sakin!

BTW, I simply love the CatchBox theme. Once I understood it’s structure it makes it relatively simple to create responsive websites. 😀
