It seems I may be experiencing something similar. No one has received notices of any postings I have made. I am unsure whether there is a problem, or it is me being obtuse and not seeing a particular tickbox to allow notification to followers of new posts - the site has only been going for a week or two.
Can anyone advise?
Jim

and choose the "summary" setting for your RSS feed or the "full text".

That does not affect the length of the post displayed on the front page or main page for posts on the blog. To create excerpts there we can split content by inserting "the more tag" http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/

When I publish a new post, followers get an email notification with the entire post. Instead, I would like the email notification to display only the first couple of sentences of my post with a "more" type link that the follower can select to go to my blog to see the entire post. How do I do this? Thanks.

I suspect you'll have to do the same.

If you're logged in, they both do the same thing.

I'm just guessing here, but I suspect that this is the result of having some parts of your software programmed to see "following" via the top bar on blogs and "following" via a sidebar button widget as the same thing, while other parts see them as different. And the reason I think that's the case is because, in a few instances, I've used the top bar to "follow" a blog that didn't have the sidebar widget but never got the expected emails - which left me to go back, leave a comment, and then use the "Notify me of new posts via e-mail" checkbox.

Perhaps you were at one point subscribed to them all via email separate from your account, but we'd have no way of directly confirming that.

I guess I'll have to do that for each of them individually, since I see no mechanism for switching them all back to Instant at once. But the question of how they all got switched to Off in the first place still remains, not to mention my having no guarantee that it won't happen again...

Switch that from Off to Instant, and you'll get emails.

dressuponacloudyday, can you give me one more Gmail address from a reader who didn't receive emails for your blog?

]]> izaakmak on "Email Notification for Latest Post Wasn't Sent Out" http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/email-notification-for-latest-post-wasnt-sent-out#post-1200921 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 20:35:14 +0000 izaakmak 1200921@http://en.forums.wordpress.com/ I think I *may* have found a clue as to what's behind my email notification problems. I say *may* because I've never quite understood the difference between "follow" and "follow by email" - if there is a difference.

At any rate, the page brought up when I click the "Subscription Options" link in an email tells me that "You are not actively following any blogs." Whereas under "Edit Blogs I Follow" on the Reader page, every blog I follow (all 577 of them) has the message "You get no post and no comment emails for this blog" associated with it.

Now I don't know what has happened to make such blanket changes, but I assure you that I took no intentional actions to do so. Actually, I don't even know how, and I don't know how to change them all back either other than going to each individual blog and subscribing again.

I do know that, before yesterday, I received regular post notifications from all of them that are still active.

In fact, since about 3:30pm EDT yesterday, I've received only one follow-up comment notification (for another blog) and one new follower notification.

What's up with the email system?

I also didn't receive a comment notification for the comment that was posted shortly after posting my post, but I received a notification for the later comment.

What's the longest it could take to send out an email notification? I was under the impression it happened instantaneously. Is there anyway that I could manually make wordpress send out a notification about my latest post?
