 * My site is a blog and I am trying to send out a broadcast message when a new 
   post is available. Unfortunately, the RSS feed coming through is of the entire
   post and not an excerpt of the post. I installed the mPress Custom Feed Excerpts
   plugin, but it is still capturing the feed of the entire post. What could be 
   wrong?
 * Thank you,

 * Go to Dashboard –>Settings –>Reading and look for ‘For each article in a feed,
   show’ and select the radio button next to Summary. Hit Save.
 * You probably don’t need that plugin either. Looking at the present raw feed is
   showing me the full post and the excerpt, too. I’m gonna guess that plugin is
   causing that by adding the excerpt itself.

 * And be aware that the feed is cached, so making a change and then checking it
   often shows the exact same thing as before the change.
