What happened to the 'categories' that used to be on the left side of the screen? Is it just my computer?

I have that same problem as do many others.Since Saturday using Chrome on the US site it was fine until I cleared my history and then the whole left side disappeared. On Firefox and IE it is still there on the US site.

It is not just a mobile problem.

To be able to see that left side on Chrome i switched to https://ca.answers.yahoo.com/ and it is fine too using https://uk.answers.yahoo.com/ so maybe try that for now.

No known reason why it happens, it may be Yahoo tinkering with things or a sign of a new format being rolled out or just a glitch, no one know with any certainty.

This is some type of a glitch that has happen to a number of users. People have been asking the same question here. No one really knows but it happens on both phones and computers. Some say a different browser helps other say clear you cookies an cache on your browser. It just something you will have to live with until Yahoo fix it.

It is yet another Yahoo Answers glitch. They come and go from one day to the next.

It is a glitch, F5 should clear it up, back to normal
