(1) There is an 'other' inbox where messages land when they are sent by someone who isn't a 'friend' connection on facebook. e.g. Someone in a group says, 'sure, I will send you a copy of that curriculum I wrote for 3rd grade music,' and it will likely land in your 'other' inbox. Check it from a computer or from a BROWSER on iPad/iPhone, but not from the Facebook app on mobile devices. It doesn't appear on those.
(2) A lot of the posts that your friends write do NOT appear in your 'feed' unless you've put them into the 'close friends' category. If you want to see everything someone wrote, go to their timeline. Otherwise, facebook filters all of it.
(3) If you are a member of a GROUP, you can search that group using the
little magnifying glass at the top right corner of the group. Again, GO
TO THE GROUP. Don't read the posts from the feed, or you're only
getting 10% of them (or less). You can search for topics, keywords,
names, etc.
(4) If you want to follow a post in a group, there is no need to type the word 'following' as a reply in the post. That's annoying and takes up space in the thread. Just choose 'get notifications' or 'save "x"/add to your SAVED LINKS' from the drop-down menu that looks like a little V at the top right of the individual post.
(5) As a member of a group, it's best to read that GROUP from the group itself, and not from the feed, or you're missing a lot of the posts. You have a list of groups on the lefthand side your HOME screen and you can slide open to it on iPad and iPhone or can simply type the name of the group in the bar at the top of the screen.
