[resolved] RSS Feed imports whole article instead of excerpt (8 posts)

    I need my RSS feed to only post an excerpt of the article in the feed description; however, it is posting the entire article.

    How can I get it to only post an excerpt?

    A little more info...

    IE 8 - Display the full articles
    Firefox - Displays excerpts
    Safari - You can set the article length yourself

    I have some people pulling my feed onto their website or e-newsletters and they can only get the excerpt.

    Thanks!

    How about

    Settings > reading > For each article in a feed, show > select summary
    ?

    Had the same problems at the 2beauty.ru, but now thanks to Hfort it's ok! Hfort, thank you! Also I'm interested if this really can be that in different browsers the excerpt works in different way? I'm sure it's not possible, but...
