  2) I don’t understand why people can’t see a particular page (Kinderen) on my website while I’ve published it and thru a link it is accesable

  Thank you in advance,
  Sonya

  Hi Sonya,

  Regarding your second question: I see that the top menu button “Kinderen” leads to https://lifeworthliving392.wordpress.com/category/geen-categorie/. I’m guessing you would like it lead to this address instead: https://lifeworthliving392.wordpress.com/category/kinderen/
  If that’s the case, you can edit the Menus settings by going to My Site > Menus and editing the Kinderen menu so that it would lead to the desired address. You can find more detailed instructions on how to do it here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
  Regarding your first question, could you try to explain again what you would like to do? I’m not sure I understand.

  I hope this helps! Let me know if it doesn’t work out and we’ll try something else.

  Thank you very much foryour quick reply [😊] What I meant by my 1st question is that I would like to bring my blogs under a particular page/menu button. Example: If I writte something concerning children I want it to come under the top menu button Kinderen (which means children) etc; Hopefully my question is clear. Thanks a million in advance! Sonya

  It is clearer! :)

  Here is one way do it: When you write a post you can assign it to a category. When editing a post you will see on the left side of the screen “Categories and Tags”. Press on “Add new category” and write the name of the category (for example, “kinderen”). This post will now be associated with that category.

  Let’s say you write a number of different posts, all under the “kinderen” category. Now you want to have a button on the top menu that will lead to a page showing all of those posts, right? You can do that by going to My Site > Menus > Add a new item. Choose a name for the menu item and then associate it with a certain category. Now you will have a new button that will lead to all of those posts.

  If you already have some posts published you can edit them and assign them a category and then edit the menu button so they will lead to the selected categories.

  In case my explanation wasn’t that clear you can also find step-by-step instructions on how to do it here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

  Best of luck!
