using the adverb with the verb in the passive

Hello everyone again

1. I can't find any rules of using the adverb with the verb in the passive voice
Where should it be placed? Before or after the verb?

Ex:
It's easily done
It's done easily

(You can do this without any problems)

2. Where should it be placed in past perfect?

Ex:
I have done it well
I have well done it

Linian_UI have well done it
The sentence above would be quite unusual and in my opinion is to be avoided. The rest of your examples are fine. You can find guidelines for the position of adverbs

Here is an overview comparing adverb positions in active versus passive sentences. Basically, the passive has more leeway in the position of adverbs..
