Blog Summary
-
I have my blogs set to only show a summary, but they are showing the full post, no matter how many times I try to fix it, it stays showing the full post. How do you fix it?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That option is for RSS/Feed.
You can use the more tag

or the excerpts:

The setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/NOTE: When you insert the more tag into a post the split will not be evident in the preview mode. It will be there after publication, provided you entered it correctly.
Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. Here are the themes that do provide that feature > https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
To control the number of posts displayed on the front page go to > Dashboard > Settings > Reading
Blog pages show at most _ posts

P.S.: the list is outdated.
