    Go to "Settings" -> "Reading Settings" --> For each article in a feed, show "Full Text"

    I hope that solve your problem

    Cheers!

    Many feeds you can scrape with feedwordpress only include an excerpt and not the full content.. maybe this is the problem?

      I've had this problem too. I was getting a single letter of the text through at first.

      I tested on another blog that was version 2.8 and the feed worked fine. I upgraded to 2.8.1, tried the same feed and it got an error.

      The article title is correct, but the text is incomplete. I did notice that the feed Encoding was picked up as "unknown" instead of "UTF-8".

        I should add, this problem only seems to happen when trying to add a new Feed.

        Feeds that were set up prior to the upgrade to 2.8.1 are continuing to work fine.
