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.

J&R: Any of you notice that not all of the answers to questions post?

I see my notifications of answers to my questions, but some of your answers don't post to the questions, probably because of links that you include in your answers. I just wanted to let you know, in case you don't get a TU from me. 

Pronk's answer is missing from my question: Video is to Killed the Radio Star as ______ is to Killed Yahoo Answers?

Updated 5 days ago:

This issue has been happening for months on Answers. The way to check if your answer posts is to view the question in incognito mode (opening another browser window) or while logged out of Yahoo.

    Questions also disappear from

    categories a lot,even though the

    questions weren’t deleted.🧐

    People call it ghosting. 👻👻👻

    Yes, several months ago,  not sure what they did,   but adding videos to your answers,  would make them ghost. 

    Just another way they ruined the site, by not being able to add videos  if you wanted your answer to appear- 

    You have the email  Cat.........keep in touch, if you ever want to discuss Wacky packages or anything!

    Yes, some words trigger the filter. Try rephrasing the sentence does solve the 'disappearing answers' issue.

    It seems to happen sometimes. I'm not sure why.
