David E asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 4 years ago

I used to be able to move questions from others that were in the wrong category. It seems that I can no longer do that.?

Am I looking the wrong place for the edit button? Has this privilege just been taken from me? Can anyone do it anymore?

    Level 7 accounts have the Edit button in a different place Than the Edit button lower account levels see on their own questions..

    IF you you are using a mobile device AND the mobile device IS NOT IN DESKTOP MODE, try putting your phone or tablet into desktop mode and refresh the page, f5 key,, THAT may fix the problem.

    Accounts CANNOT BLOCK level 7 accounts from moving their questions.

    To put your mobile device into desktop mode, the desktop option is under either the menu icon in the upper left corner of Safari and Firefox browsers. On Google chrome, it is underneath the the three vertical dots in the upper RIGHT corner of the browser.

    It IS possible that Yahoo ?Verizon has put a block ON YOUR account. i suspect Verizon staff is beta testing new computer programs and certain specific YA community members are being used as as "lab rats' for the beta testing of those computer programs. Yes, i could be worng. In a way I hope I AM wrong.

    Sad this would be high light of a person's day to move a question. This is now just a porn site of little value.

    Your profile shows that you are a level 7 and should be able to move a question unless you been informed by Yahoo you can't. I never heard of this before. If you are using a smartphone switch it to desktop mode. That should help. Just click the blue edit bar and select Edit Category and go from there.

    As a Level 7 member, you should be able to do that, but perhaps the account your trying to edit blocked you?

    I've woken up while being raped in hypnosis, drugging, and esoteric blood sacrifice. I'm now framed a threat to society, made to live near abusers, and deprived of medication.
