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.

What has Yahoo Answers done, and can it be fixed?

They used to have a choice of Recent and Popular. Now it has been replaced with Discover and Answer. Answer will not show me questions that have had any previous answer.

Is there any way to get back the good settings?

Update:

I have noticed that going to Yahoo Canada gets me the better format. However, now it shows a much smaller number of questions.

    Y!A page is under Makeover. Explore the new page format part by part to understand it [where to find what u want]. There are still some bugs & errors to be fixed. There is a "customize settings" option available on the right side of the Discover & Answer tab. Check all & save.

    Temporary Remedy: If u click on Canada or UK, u wil b able to work on the previous format w/o much fuss.

    UPDATE: Even I hv d same issue wid questions. We can't do anything right now [frm our side] as the work is still UNDER PROGRESS. Only Y!A team can inform us as to when we can expect a proper access wid NIL issues.

    Note: Either hv patience or take a holiday for sometime from Y!A. ;)

    Thank you, Cool Venus. The customizing seems to help get through a lot of the problem.
