Yahoo Answers is shutting down on 4 May 2021 (Eastern Time) and the Yahoo Answers website is now 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.
Is anyone else constantly getting logged out of Yahoo Answers?
Ever since they switched over to this new layout, I get logged out of the site every few clicks... sometimes just in the time it takes me to log in (again), type an answer, and hit submit.
It's not my browser. This happens in multiple browsers, on multiple computers, and I've tried clearing out the cache several times to see it that would fix the issue. It doesn't.
Bizarrely enough, when the site glitches and switches me over to the old layout for a few days (which seems to be happening less and less frequently), it doesn't happen at all.
In fact, it did it again in the middle of posting this question and I had to log back in and start over.

It does happen to me from time to time. It's not an uncommon glitch, I've seen others post about it.
One could take it as a sign not to ask/answer today, I suppose....

I'm not, though I've been using the cheater f.answers link to stay on the green. Earlier I was in the new format and I was battling a lot of glitches, mostly searches not returning anything, but I wasn't having a login problem.

When you cleaned the cache, did you also remove the cookies and temp files. Those may cause this problem. Otherwise, the things to check are your popup blocker (turn it off for a while) and check that you have the latest Java and Flash versions.
