I my have missed this, but why aren't thread articles showing excerpts any longer under the main title?

You may have the wrong tab selected. Toward the top of the page there are tabs to say articles, activities and comments. Click the comments tab and you should see nexo from the body of the article under each headline.

Not sure I understand. On the screen with the list of threads, there is a banner and on the Left hand side of the banner there are three tabs: Articles / Activity / Comments. And on the Right hand side of that banner it says “Brevity” with two choices: “Headers” or “Text”.

If all you see are Titles, then you need to select Text.

Stupid voice to text. They should say an excerpt, not nexo.

Where it says “brevity”. Headers or text. You may have accidentally hit headers.

So do i. A poster of thread pointed out that a reader can select headers or text under brevity. That’s what I should have said.

Sorry about my confusing post. Somehow I had changed my preference from text to header. Thanks to all who responded. Will try to be a little more clear next time.

If I understand you correctly…

Go to your Pings

Look at the header of the very first article in your list

Just above that is a blue bar with the key words Header and Text.

Play with those links and it should switch between Headers only and Headers with an excerpt for the article listings.

I think the default is set in a tab up top, try here:
