  When I publish a new post the email to the subscribers contains the whole post. What do I need to do to make sure that only first few lines of the post are in the email and subscribers actually have to go to the blog to read the full post?

  Thanks – Kapil

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

  Hey mate.
  I don’t know the answer to your question, in fact I’d like to know myself!
  I just wanted to ask:
  Is your name really Kapil Dev? :D

  On your blog’s dashboard, if you go to Settings > Reading, you will have the option to change the way the feeds of your blog work.

  f you change this setting from “Full Post” to “summary”, people will receive only an abstract of your post.
