error: invalid input syntax for type bigint: "blog_user_id"

You should read the “arguments” description under the create trigger syntax.   It explains why when you wrote the column name blog_user_id is tried to interpret that as a bigint (since that is the parameter type for the trigger function).

Sorry if I am misunderstanding. I'm still pretty new to PostgreSQL but the column actually is a bigint (well technically a bigserial) which is why I am confused.

Simon.
