Nom-nom.
So taking some advice I undid an old feature-that-was-more-like-a-bug around here and flipped off the switch that restricted the atom and RSS feeds to excerpts only, which is why maybe I just spammed your LiveJournal friends page or your old skool reader, I dunno. Sorry. Anyway, you should now see the full body in the feed for every article, instead of just the excerpt.
Unless you’re using Firefox. Um. Which somehow can read that there’s an excerpt present and so chooses to show the excerpt in the feed even though as far as I can tell there shouldn’t even be an excerpt there for it to read. —Of course, if you’re reading it in Firefox through Bloglines or Google Reader or some such, then you’re okay; they seem to pass the full body through whether you’re reading it on Firefox or no. Unless you’re using them in Firefox to subscribe directly to the atom feed. In which case they don’t.
I don’t even have any idea what happens in say NetNewsWire or Feedly or Thunderbird.
Anyway. There’s options! Which is all I ever wanted. (I just wanted more control over them.) —I guess you should point your reader of choice at the Feedburner feed and if you’re still getting it the one way and you’d rather have the other and you just can’t make it work let me know and I’ll see if there’s something I can do on my end. Otherwise I’ll assume y’all’re good and we’ll go from there.
Working fine for me in NNW, huzzah. (And thank you kindly, I love full-text feeds!)
Not that I’m, y’know, insecure, or complaining, or anything, but damn has my traffic taken a nosedive ever since I did this.
