Navigating the Swag Bucks Facebook Page

March 26, 2009

As we frantically scurried to post last night’s Swag Code hint it occurred to us that when you are in a mad rush to find a code one can get easily lost in the many levels of Facebook pages.  This can be compounded while 20,000 people are posting their comments about their own success or confusion.

The latest incarnation of Facebook has improved on some old elements and has some nice benefits for us Swag Code hunters.  So when you get a tweet or see a WLSB post about a Facebook wall code here’s how to find it fast.

First of all, jump to the Swag Bucks facebook page.  It pays to be logged into Facebook, so if you aren’t, do that as soon as you get there.

You should see something like this (click the image for full size):

The first and most important thing to notice here is that the most recent Swag Bucks post is prominently displayed at the very top of the page over the tabs.  Unless Swag Bucks has posted again, our Swag Code or our hints to find it will be right here.  If you are not logged in to Facebook you may not see the latest post at the top of the page.

The second thing to note is the Just Swag Bucks button under the Write something… box.  If our instructions aren’t in the very top portion of the page, click this button and all the wall messages by fans will be filtered out.  Now you will have a much easier time finding the correct post.

Sometimes you won’t see the filter buttons under the Write something… box.  Don’t panic.  Your version of the wall probably looks like this (click image for full size):

Simply click that little Filters button and the Just Swag Bucks button will appear!

We hope this helps you cut through the haystack to find the needle.  Good luck everyone!
