Hey Cameron,
I am sorry for the delay of this reply,
If I am unable to solve the problem "Regarding with your second question", I may have to consider stop using Easyblog, because someone with hostile intention just floods the blogging with spam entries, drowning our legitimate blogging to invisible.
I have applied some hack in this file ->
JoomlaFolder\components\com_easyblog\views\dashboard\view.html.php, we will see if the spammer still can publish the post into this category `Uncategorized` in your site.
The total entries on this category is 713 now. By the way, can I have the permission to help you delete all the spam post under this category? (may i know is it all or half of it is your site post?)
By the way, keep us updated if you getting spam post in that specific category.
If still get, can you provide us with your FTP access as well? (because I tried to access but hitting `530 Login incorrect.`)
Regarding with your second question :
>> I have help you created a hidden menu item for `EasyBlog frontpage layout` (
http://www.yoursite.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_menus&task=item.edit&id=203)
>> Then switch your current `Blogs-AR-Us` menu type to `ALL category listing` (
http://www.yoursite.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_menus&task=item.edit&id=135)
>> So now when you click on your `Blogs-AR-Us` menu then it will go to category listing page now.
