stop sending entire post to email subscribers
-
Greeting fellow bloggers. I am new to blogging and just set up my blog site. My subscribers are getting my entire post emailed to them which is basically keeping people from going to my blog site. How do I set it up to where my subscribers are getting a simple message saying that I made a new post instead of receiving my entire blog post. I want for my subscribers to go to my blog site. I would greatly appreciate any help. My daughter is having the same issue with her blog site.
Thank you in advance for any help. Have a great day.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can control the length of the entry for posts sent out on your RSS feed here Dashboard > Settings > Reading. Choose the “summary” setting for your RSS feed rather than to “full text”. That will compel followers who are not using mobiles to click into the blog to read the full post which will create a page view stat.

As I noted above the setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
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.

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
To control the number of posts displayed on the front page go to > Dashboard > Settings > Reading
Blog pages show at most _ posts
