How to make questions you ask/answer private on yahoo answers?

[thejanith]

You can make your Q&A list on your profile page private, and choose who can see that list. Go to your profile page, click on Edit My Preferences, and then on the Privacy option.

You can not, however, make your questions and answers on this site private in general. Even if you make your list private, all your questions and answers will still be viewable in their categories. This is not a private site, it is a very public one. All resolved questions go into the archives -- forever -- where they can be viewed by anyone who wants to look them up. This was explained very clearly in the material you had to read (or lie and say you'd read) when you signed up to use this site.
