 If you use get_the_post_thumbnail_url() without setting the $size value,
 it seems that get_the_post_thumbnail_url() doesn't work!

 Look here:
  get_the_post_thumbnail_url()
 * https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-includes/post-
 thumbnail-template.php#L196
 * default for $size = post-thumbnail

  wp_get_attachment_image_url()
 * https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-
 includes/media.php#L944
 * default for $size = thumbnail

 So if you want to use get_the_post_thumbnail_url() correctly, you have to
 specify $size = 'thumbnail'. Otherwise it doesn't work, because the
 default is "post_thumbnail" and this is meh.
