  hi, when my posts are emailed to followers they receive the entire post into their inbox, giving them no incentive to click through to the wordpress site and therefore register on my stats. Is there any way of just offering a sample of the post via email with a ‘read more’ button to encourage readers to click through to wordpress to finish the article?
  thanks.

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

  Hi!

  It appears that you will need to change your RSS feed (since that is where your emails pull content from) to be summary. This can be done in your reading settings page.

  WordPress has a guide here:

  Hi, we’re having the same problem but I can’t find the reading settings in our settings – we seem to have a different layout to the one shown in the wordpress guide? Would love it if someone could help?
