Comments
In order for the "blogs" tab to show up on user profiles, all of the following conditions must be met:
* Members must have "have personal categories" privileges for cms_news (I don't believe they do by default but you can check under Security > Global Privileges > Submission, I think, or you can use permissions tree editor)
* The "Separate blogs" option must be enabled under Admin Zone > Setup > Configuration > Feature Options > News (it is disabled by default, so check to ensure this is enabled)
* The hidden option 'blogs_tab_enabled' must not be set to 0 (by default, it is not set / does not equal 0)
Please confirm all of the following above. If you still don't see the blog tab, I'll investigate further. Thank you!

I'm going to close this issue since there's no bug with the blogs tab. Please open a separate tracker issue for the layout problem you attached and re-attach it to the new issue. Also please specify v11 in the future so I know which version you're talking about. I appreciate it!
