    First - have you tried removing the plugins and reinstalling them? Checked that you have the latest version of Wordpress, and that the plugins are compatible with whatever version of Wordpress you are running?

    yeah tried all of that and it is compatible
    i think the problem lies with the fact that thumbnails for excerpts requires you to have the_content changed to the_excerpt and homepage excerpt requires it to be left as the_content on the main index
    is there a work around like for example creating another .php file or something?

    Link to the two plugin downloads and maybe someone will take a look.
