You can edit your theme. In the index.php replace the_content with the_excerpt. This is not a too fancy option, but perhaps your theme handles it well. Alternally you can use a plugin. There are plenty of excerpt plugins. I’m a happy user Excerpt Editor myself.
Hello Roy!
First of all, thanks for your extremely fast reply!
I just tried excerpt editor few minutes ago, but i have no luck with it.
Here’s my index.php content

It’s safer to use a plugin when you’re not comfortable with coding

Hi Roy!
Well, managed to replace the_content with the_excerpt, it works now properly, but as i changed it my tweet counter and sexy bookmarks plugin does not work on my main page they are disappeared and only display if i go to the article.

I wouldn’t start editing plugin files if I were you. I’m not a coder enough to know what the results of that may be. Besides, I don’t know either plugin. Just the_excerpt in your theme should do the trick.
I just tried your suggestion: Excerpt editor.
It works well, but if i use this plugin my bookmarks will hide from home and display only if i enter in the post….

What do you mean with bookmarks? Categories, tags, ankors?
I use a plugin called sexy bookmarks.
So if Excerpt editor is active, then sexy bookmarks does not show on posts on main page, only if i enter in the post to read the full text…….

Hm, conflicting plugins is a tough one. I think Excerpt Editor is more easily replaceable, but also more easily coded than that other plugin. But weren’t things okay when you only edited the theme and not the plugins?
Forget it, i just managed to solve my problem.
This plugin helped me a lot:
