I use "if (class_exists('MultiPostThumbnails')) : MultiPostThumbnails::get_post_thumbnail_url(get_post_type(), 'secondary-image'); "

but it seems to be no responding url.

why?

This feature is broken and there has not been an update proposed. So, you cannot echo the URL alone as it stands using "get_post_thumbnail_url()". I needed a solution urgently so I did the following. It might be helpful to have a look at it but I recommend searching for a better long term solution. <?php if (class_exists('MultiPostThumbnails')) : $thumb = wp_get_attachment_image_src(MultiPostThumbnails::get_post_thumbnail_url( get_post_type(), 'extrabg1' ), ‘thumbnail_name’) ; echo $thumb[0] ; endif; ?>

@masterjkk if you're expecting that to print the URL, you'll need to echo it. Like core's get_ vs. the_ template tags only the_ echoes the result.

@nestor-santana happy to have your reply, it works well. Thanks! I also hope the author make a bugfix about it.

Closing since it doesn't seem like this is a bug but please re-open if I'm mistaken.
