Pretty much everything in WordPress has an associated feed — including all categories. Have a look at WordPress_Feeds in the docs section.
You can set your feeds to be full or summary by visiting Settings -> Reading when logged in. Check the option by “For each article in a feed, show ”
I’ve tried full text and summary but it still only shows a few words. Is it affected if you type things in the excerpt field of the post, because what I type in the excerpt of my posts is what is showing up in the feeds.
Basically is there a way to still use the excerpt but have the summary in the feeds?
thanks.
Go to Settings > Reading and For each article in a feed show — Summary
I’ve tried this and for some reason it doesn’t work, this is my problem.
Are you testing with a real feed reader or by looking at the feed in a browser?
If using a browser to test, be sure to View Source so you can see what’s really going on — not the browser’s interpretation.
Do you think an example would help us see what’s going on?
