I want to understand the word order of a demonstrative pronoun AS AN OBJECT (whether or not it is contracted to ça). It was asked below, "Je l'adore" vs. "J'adore ça" but the point was missed in the answer. when ÇA is used as an object, it seems to follow the verb, but when le, la, or lui is used, the object pronoun preceeds the verb.
I've searched Lawless French and googled for this, but have not found anything that specifically addresses this nuance of word order. Please help!
As I read this lesson, I see two directives: 1) with trouver one always needs "que" and 2) with trouver, sometimes you don't need "que". Please explain a deeper difference between the two usages presented.

Why was “je vais au parc” marked wrong. Isn’t it an alternative way of saying “I go to the park” along with “dans le parc”?
Is it because fatiquer is transitive ‘only’ and ‘must’ have an object, otherwise fatiguée here is an adjective? Might be back to A level for me!
Just when I think I might have that French partitive sorted out, I fear not!
" un petit pot adorable de la confiture à la framboise." My thinking was that the container was named, "un petit pot" so why not "de confiture..." ?!
