How do I add a Blog Menu or Blog Summary?

On your Blog page, you are able to add components called 'Blog Menu' and 'Blog Summary.'

Blog menu is a blog navigation that allows users to browse by date or topic, and allows visitors to easily navigate your blog posts (example shown below on the left).

Blog summary allows you to show summaries for your blog posts, and gives you the ability to choose  the number of blog posts to summarize (default is 5 blog posts), well as the option of choosing to show a short summary of each blog and the number of characters to show (example show below in the middle).
