Why is the Y!A bug of not showing questions of the past 7+ days not being fixed?
This question will probably show up a week later than I posted it. I have a bad feeling that Yahoo is shutting down Y!A for good now. (Or maybe that would really be a relief.)
This bug has been around for a week now.

Right now there is something very much wrong with many questions not showing even refreshing the page. Started days ago and has gotten worse..
It may be yahoo was working behind the scenes and caused a new glitch, it was the weekend and that is when they usually happen, so we might have this happening until they get around to fixing it..
Once you get past the get 'Your criteria doesn't match any questions' notice Questions are jumping from hours ago to 2 .. 3 or 4 days ago so many are not being seen at all..
There are hours of questions missing. Refreshing does not fix it, they just disappear off the list.
Yours can be seen now but in an while will be gone but still show on your list.
There is a Bug Report on the forum, so we shall see if they see it and fix whatever is wrong, nothing else we can do. https://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/211240-us-answe...
The Yahoo tech team fixes things in their own unique way and time.
There are no signs they are working on fixing things and no comment on the forum from them.
Today questions go from 2 hours ago to 5 days ago.

This is a current bug across all categories on Answers. Yahoo are aware of this - I guess we have to wait and see,

IDK, but I'd like to know what could cause such behavior. Usually posts get pulled from a database and that either works or doesn't work, so seeing just some posts is quite weird.
And it also depends on the category, I noticed that Yahoo Products shows all recent questions.
