 * Hi there,
 * Looks like the first 4 posts are set to Gallery post type.
 * Is that intended?
 * If not can you try setting it back to standard?

 * I realized that the problem was for the new post.
 * I uploaded a backup file on my server.that’s why all new posts are published 
   is going long on the homepage (like excerpt length is not working ).
 * But I removed that’s 4 issues post. and updated with add new post. and upload
   images in media library.
 * However, those posts are not working for excerpt length. can you please help 
   me.

 * Not sure if I understand.
 * Can you first make sure all posts are set to standard post type?
 * I just checked your site again and the first post is still set to gallery post
   type.
