  On my blog I have a sidebar for people to sign up via email. I thought that when they signed up for that the subscribers would get a notification that I have posted a new blog and they would need to link to the website. However what I have found is that in the email they get the entire blog and when they get that then no one is driven to the actual blog site and therefore I am not capturing that data. How do I get the email notification to the subscribers to simply have a link in it that drives them back to the actual website rather than sending them the entire blog in the email.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi @mambaker, try heading to Dashboard > Settings > Reading and choosing to display a summary instead of the full post. Cheers!
