Search Excerpt… Any Ideas?

    When I have this plugin active (using Twenty Twelve child Theme), I lose excerpts on my search result page. Any idea what the conflict could be?

    My site requires an LDAP login, so I can’t provide a link.

    On my test site (same child theme, same other plugins, same hosting), the search excerpts are unaffected.

    I’ve isolated what portion of my functions.php file interferes with the search result excerpts:

    //adds attachment thumbnail to search results list
	function attachments_search_the_excerpt( $excerpt ) {
		if ( ! is_search() )
		return $excerpt;

		$id = get_the_ID();
		if ( ! $id )
		return $excerpt;

	$caption = wptexturize( get_post($id)->post_excerpt );

	// compile output with thumbnail image
	$output = "<div id='attachment_{$id}' >";
	$output .= wp_get_attachment_image( $id, 'thumbnail', true );
	$output .= "<p class='wp-caption-text'>$caption</p>";
	$output .= "</div>";

	return $output;
	}
	// hook our function to the filter
	add_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'attachments_search_the_excerpt' );

    This was taken from this support request and works fine with Vanilla PDF embed on my test site.

    Fixed it, nevermind.
