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.

WTF?! What has happened to Yahoo Answers?

Is it broken or something? The familiar green page has been replaced with white and some of the basic features are hard to find - if they are even still there. Where is "My Saved Searches"?

I hope this isn't a permanent thing.

    Yahoo has updated the Yahoo Answers page. No one really knows why and complaining won't help. We Americans already tried that. Yahoo is confident we will all get used to this ugly, new format. Many of us have switched to Canada where they are still using the familiar old, green and white page.

    To find My Saved Searches:

    Click 'Answers Home'

    Hover over 'More' in the purple line

    Select 'Saved Searches'

    Mine went purple yesterday - but has reverted to the old green version today. I suspect we are eventually all going to have to get used to the purple format - but they may take a while to sort out all of the glitches, as seems to happen with any website these days.

    It is the new layout, you can delete all your Yahoo cookies and you may get it back to the old way for a few hours.

    Looks normal to me in the US version, I'm using Chrome.

    I'm afraid it's spread from USA. They didn't like it either, but nobody listened.
