    Dear awesome people

    I'm sending RSS-to-email campaigns with every post I publish on my blog.

    I've set up this kind of automated campaign in tens of websites with Genesis and in all of them the RSS feed obeys the WP excerpt (i.e. 150 words)

    However, on my blog, the RSS feed is 1000+ words long producing a very ugly email.

    I'm using the Maker Pro template.

    Any idea how can I edit the excerpt output of an RSS feed?

    Thank you from beforehand.

    Navigate to the WordPress Settings / Reading page and make sure "For each article in a feed, show" is set to summary. Clear all caches.

    Victor thank you very much.

    The problem is not originating from there.

    As you might have guessed that was the first thing I checked. I've also checked the WP RSS PHP code and it's the same with every other template...

    Any other recommendation?

    Thank you very much

    There's nothing I know of in Genesis that can change the length of the feed. You could open a ticket with Studio Press support to find out. It could be a bug in WordPress. You might want to research with WordPress support.
