   Example migrated from Codex:

   Append the query string for the custom post type ‘my_custom_post_type’ permalink URLs ( uses add_query_arg() and get_post_type() ):

   function append_query_string( $url, $post ) {
       if ( 'my_custom_post_type' == get_post_type( $post ) ) {
           return add_query_arg( $_GET, $url );
       }
       return $url;
   }
   add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'append_query_string', 10, 2 );
