Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and beginning April 20th, 2021 (Eastern Time) the Yahoo Answers website will be in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Are you aware that even though your Q&A's are set to private, if someone clicks your view profile?

they will be able to see some of your questions and answers anyway. Is there anything that can be done to change that?

    If your Y!A profile is set to private, only your contacts can see your Q&A from Y!A.

    However, if you have left your Yahoo PULSE profile open and posting updates from Y!A, then people can see your Q&A from your Pulse Profile. You need to edit your Pulse Profile so that you are not broadcasting updates from other Y!A sites.

    If someone clicks the View Profile option in your Y!A profile, yes, it takes them to your Pulse Profile.

    That is not true. If you hide them then YOU can see your q&a but no one else can. You currently do not have them hidden.

    This only hides them in your profile but not anywhere else.
