    I set “For each article in a feed, show” to “Summary”, however on my blog page it’s showing the full post.

    I did try setting the excerpt manually on the post, but that didn’t resolve the problem.

    Any thoughts?

    TIA

    that setting is for rss feeds only.

    you need to edit loop.php to show excerpts on the front page.

    for instance, you could change line 137 into:
    <?php if ( is_home() || is_archive() || is_search() ) : // Only display excerpts for blog page, archives and search. ?>

    alternatively, you could use the ‘more tag’ to restrict the length of your posts on the front page
