 * Hi there!
 * I’m working on a site with multiple custom post types so I use the msls_options_get_permalink
   filter quite a bit and it works great except in one situation.
 * For a custom taxonomy, I had to use HTTP query strings to give the designer the
   layout he wanted (archives by taxonomies, not just by terms). I created the links
   for these in the menu as custom links with URLs like this:
 * [http://integrim.symvision.com/solutions/our-solutions/?by=solutions_industries](http://integrim.symvision.com/solutions/our-solutions/?by=solutions_industries)
   
   [http://integrim.symvision.com//solutions/our-solutions/?by=solutions_expertise_fields](http://integrim.symvision.com//solutions/our-solutions/?by=solutions_expertise_fields)
 * The msls_options_get_permalink filter handles the part before the ? fine but 
   I’m wondering if there’s a way to account for the query string as well or simply
   pass it to the link in the other language somehow (French). The query string 
   is the same in both languages.
 * My archives template for this CPT already handles the case if there’s no query
   string by showing one of the taxonomies by default but if the other is selected
   and the visitor switches language ands sees the default one it’s not going to
   be a good user experience.
 * Any guidance with this would be much appreciated.
 * Thank you!
