   Hi,

   I want to set it so when people are on my website and they view a multi-post page (e.g. /blog/ or a category page), they see summaries instead of full articles.

   But at the same time, I want my feed subscribers to see entire articles.

   How can I reconcile these two things?

   Thanks :)

   Change the_content to the_excerpt in your index.php, category.php, etc, and set feeds for entire articles.

   BTW, forgive me for being such a newbie but could you elaborate more on the "etc" in "index.php, category.php, etc"?

   That's OK. I mean the other files in your theme. category.php is the file that displays the category pages; index.php does the main page; single.php displays a single post; page.php displays a static page. There might be others, depending the particular theme....
