  Hi, no matter how many times I click “For each article in a feed, show Full Text”, it will not put the full text in my feed! I cannot figure out what I’m doing wrong. I only have three blog posts so far, one of which is long, and half-hidden behind a cut. But the first and last ones will not display in entirety. What am I doing wrong?

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

  Well it would seem that you are using a theme that automatically display only excerpts on the front page of the blog so changing themes may be the way to go.

  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.

  Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that does not automatically display front page excerpts. Here are the themes that do provide that feature > https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410

  Alternatively, there is a workaround to display full posts but it doesn’t work with objects inserted via a shortcode (videos, polls, audio players etc).

  Oh what a bummer. I really liked that theme. Thanks so much for the information. I can stop banging my head on my desk now. ;)
