This is what it looks like, just a goo.gl link taken at random: http://goo.gl/#analytics/goo.gl/ua4z2S/all_time. Anything from bitcointalk typically appears as unknown.

That is odd, it shows bitcointalk.org for me but under referrals it just shows index.php because google anatylics doesn't log the query strings obviously if their is data in them.

With the url in the query string, doesn't really translate to google analytics and makes it hard to track what threads your traffic is coming from.

Does bitcointalk.org show up in Google Analytics at all under Referral Traffic source ? It goes under Unknown Source for me.

Bitcointalk.org shows up for me, but that is it.

Changing the URL structure would be difficult. This may be improved in the new forum software, but it's not a priority.

It oughtn't to. Browsers aren't supposed to send cross-domain Referers from HTTPS sites, since the URL may contain sensitive information (such as session IDs).

Most/all browsers send referrers if the new site is also HTTPS. (Which makes no sense, really.)

I got you.
