So I've noticed that Drupal sets the blog listing page as a different content type to the blog articles. This is a bit awkward because I want to set blocks that are specifically for the blog section.

In admin I can choose to restrict by content type: News Articles (the blog entries), or choose the pages on which the block displays displays: so list the page /blog which is the Blog listings page.

How can I have harmony and set a block for blog listing and blog entry pages excluding the rest of the site?

Thank you

    What you call the blog listing page is not a content type. It is just a page output from a module, but not all the pages output from a module are content types.

One way to do this is to use the Pathauto module to automatically set your blog URLs. Set URLs for content of type blog to be blog/[node:title]; then, on the blocks configuration page, you can simply set the pages to be blog and blog/*, which will then show the block only on your blog pages and index but nothing else.
