May be it is worth to leave a few more words on this because the string looks a bit like white noise.
*transfercart* is the url which can be chosen freely. The ? is well known for parameters. In this case we
get just one parameter, the orders primary key.* \d+* is a regular expression that limits the parameters
to a digital number with n digits. Let's have a look on the names and how they belong together:
* mouser/getcart: Path of the url together with SLUG {% with id="plugin_dataflow", url="plugin/plugin_dataflow.png", description="Dataflow between Javescript and Python" %} {% include "img.html" %} {% endwith %}
