  Is it automatic for certain types of blogs? Or can I change it myself? How?

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

  Hi there,

  to get your posts to show an excerpt in the reader (and other rss feeds) go to Settings>Reader on your dashboard and choose “summary” for the question “For each article in a feed, show:”

  If you want summaries rather than full posts to show up on your actual site, you need to use the “more” tag. More about that here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/
