If you want the url not to contain the id portion you could keep it in a session var and retrieve it at the thank_you method.

routes.php

$route['order/thank_you/(:num)'] = 'thanks/thank_you/$1';

The left hand side is the URL accessed by the users. And the right hand side is where your request going to.

For example, the request example.com/order/thank_you/344 is going to the function thank_you() of the Controller thanks.

$1 is the argument. If have more than one, just /$1/$2/.

The Controller

public function friends_profile ($id = NULL) {

    echo "This is the ID I want to thank to " .$id;

}

The function arguments can be passed directly by the route. $id is the argument passed by the URI.

By the way, check out the Codeigniter URI Routing Guide to get more information.
