  When someone receives your post through a wordpress email subscription, does it show up in the stats when the email is opened, or do they have to actually visit the site?

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

  The hit is not recorded until the subscriber visits your site.

  Can I change the subscription email so that my subscribers only get a message that a new post is avaliable, but that they have to visit the site to read it?

  Configure the email to only have an excerpt sent – that is a couple of lines and the title, click on link then to read more.

  I am new to WordPress and just posted my first blog. This really helps me to know that I can configure my email settings to only send an exerpt of my message. Thanks a bunch. God bless you!
