Just wondered why Google Analytics shows URL of a topic as /topic/767-horse-racing-t...-31-december-2021/?_rid=1

I am referring to the ( ?_rid=1 ) part. Anybody know?

While I'm here when I click through to view the topic I posted the URL has /topic/767-horse-racing-tips-31-december-2021/#comment-872

Why the #comment-872 on the end?

This is a referral link - this means if someone visits that link, and then registers, the member with the ID of 1 will be credited as referring that person to the site.

This is an anchor - it's used by the browser to take you directly to the post you're trying to view (in most cases, the latest unread post) rather than taking you to the top of the page.
