 * Currently, my blog’s RSS feeds received through email shows my entire post. It
   doesn’t give readers much of a reason to visit my site. Can I change that? I’ve
   tried using excerpts but doesn’t change anything. Is this an RSS default or is
   there something I can do in the WP coding to change it so that RSS emails only
   give readers a blurb of the entire post so they have to click the link to read
   the whole thing?
 * My blog is [http://www.simplerliving.ca](http://www.simplerliving.ca)
 * Thanks for any help.
