On the mobile version of the site, you will need click the magnifying glass icon in the top menu in order to access these filters.
These filters will allow you to sort questions by Course, Section, a specific WeBWorK Problem Set, and to sort by only Answered or Unanswered Questions. On mobile devices, the dropdown menus can be found by pressing the magnifying glass icon in the black menu bar at the top of the site.
After filtering by any of the categories mentioned above, the questions will be sorted with the most recent at the top. If you would like to change this to sort questions by Most Replies or Most Votes, you can choose either of those from the dropdown menu at the top of the page.
