Change Length of Post Shown in Follower Email
-
How can I change the length of the post that displays in the email that is sent to blog followers? Right now, the entire post is shown in the email. We’d prefer that they ready a portion of it, and then click a link to go to the post on our site to continue reading (in order to drive site traffic).
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
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/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
