  Hi there,

  Since the new changes to the site came into effect (and it is all looking great by the way!) I have been having trouble with my posts in the wordpress.com Reader.

  Before the update every post I made had the main image as the focus then the first couple of lines of text automatically generated to help entice readers to click and read the whole thing. It was great and I loved the simplicity of it.

  Since the update this no longer happens my posts appear in the Reader view as a single image.

  If you scroll down you can see older posts that have the first few lines of text on them while the newer ones don’t:
  My blog in the reader

  Do I need to add something extra to my posts or change a newly added setting?

  Thanks in advance for the help!

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

  The major ongoing thread on this issue is this one https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/new-format-for-readerwordpress-website?replies=83

  I suggest that you post into it so we can keep all the feedback in one thread and I have tagged this and the other threads for closure.
