    This is the link now https://www.detimmerella.nl/portfolio/

    And I have 1 more question sorry

    I’ve recently installed ‘WP News and Scrolling Widgets’ plugin
    but because my website is dutch, how can I change the permalink ‘News’ it makes (e.g: https://www.detimmerella.nl/news/meesterstuk/)

    This is the code from the editor

    <?php

    Hi there, your “blog” page comes up as not found. Are you talking about https://www.detimmerella.nl/news/ by chance?

    On the Plugin, I would suggest contacting the plugin author since any change you make to the actual plugin files would be overwritten on future plugin updates.

    Hi Sacredpath

    Yes that is what I mean! Sorry for the trouble!

    No worries, did you contact the plugin author and were they able to help you with this?

    (@detimmerella)

    I just want this space to be removed https://i.imgur.com/FFFJ73B.jpg

    I think this has to do with the theme and not plugin

    Thank you for your time

    Thanks for the screenshot. This will do it for you. Let me know if you have any issues.

    .site-content {
	padding-top: 0;
}

    For the translation issue on the plugin, you will have to chat with the plugin author as that is not something in the theme. I have no idea if the plugin author has made the plugin files translation-ready or not. That is something you will have to discuss with them.

    It works!
