How do I configure WordPress to include my full blog post?

By default, WordPress creates an RSS feed for blog posts.  However, the default WordPress setting does not publish the entire post into the RSS feed.  The following describes how to update your WordPress settings to ensure that your full post is available for both the Amazon Alexa blog reader and the Google Assistant blog reader.

First, log into the wp-admin site to ensure that you see the WordPress administrator console.  The upper lefthand corner of the screen should have the WordPress logo and a home icon (as shown by the blue arrow in the following image).

 

Next, scroll down to "Settings" (see the yellow arrow in the next image) and choose the "Reading" option under "Settings" (see the orange arrow).   

Finally, change the option under "For each article in a feed, show" from "Summary" to "Full text" (see the green arrow below).
