A question about Facebook? - Eli - 11-28-2013 02:46 PM

Is there, by any chance, a program or something by which I can read the previous conversations on fb? I mean, for example I want to read some really old messages but it would take days I think to scroll up and finally reach the destination pointBig GrinBig Grin
I would really really much appreciate your help! Many thanks in advance!!

To start, go to http://m.facebook.com/messages/

Then click the person you want to see the first message with. right click the ”See older messages” button and click “open in new tab” or something that relates to that depending on what browser you use. Now, the link will appear in a new tab and it should look something like this:

http://m.facebook.com/messages/read/?forward=0&start=52695&page_size=7&tids=numbers%3Dinbox&tid=numbers&see_older=1&refid=12

From here, all you have to do is change the start=52695 (yours will be another number) to start= a low number like 200 And that’s it! You will still have to click ”See older messages” a bit to get through those 100-200 messages, but it’s nothing compared to going through 50,000 messages first!

(i take no credit for this)

If you open someone's message, there will be a logo for 'search' near the 'Actions' tab on the top right corner. If you remember few words of the message then it will find it for you. Good luck.

Go to your Messages inbox on the Left Side On the Top you Will See a Search Box Type in the Person that your Lookin For and it will Pull Up There Conversation With you and you Can Go Back to it
