    Dear WordPress,

    Where do I control the content of emails distributed to my subscribers? By my question I mean, I wouldn’t like to include my whole posts in emails, let’s say only three first paragraphs with a link redirecting to the website post … I would be most grateful for your support. I simply have not managed the location where I control and set those features.

    Thank you.

    Note that what’s sent out is what appears in your feed for posts found at this URL http://emergingequity.org/feed/

    You can set your RSS Feed to summary. The setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.

    Also note what follows please. 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.

    The read more tag can be inserted once only into any post to change the front page or main page for posts display from full post to an excerpt. The split in the ext does not display to you in preview mode but it will be there after the post is published.

    Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of only SOME active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
