Blog sections fixed & use cats instead of tags for entity

Blog sections were separated into their respective entities using
tags, so that categories could still be used, and because we never
use tags anyway. This is now changed so that categories are used
to separate posts into their sections.

Blog sections now also use advanced excerpts, instead of displaying
the full posts.
