On my website I use 2 portfolios on 2 different pages (via WPBakery Portfolio Items). In each of the 2 portfolios I show different projects, categorized via Portfolio Categories. So far so good an d everything works great.
When I click on a portfolio thumbnail in the first portfolio then I get to the single portfolio page with the portfolio navigation on the bottom (see attached screenshot). When I click the square in the center of the portfolio navigation I get back to the main (first) portfolio page, which is great.
However, let's say I go to the 2nd portfolio page with the 2nd portfolio. I select a thumbnail there and then I get to the according project page. When I now click here on the square on the bottom of the portfolio navigation (screenshot) I get back to the first, main portfolio page, but not the 2nd portfolio page.
My question is, is it possible to somehow link the square on the bottom of each portfolio navigation back to each (!) portfolio?
I just discovered a small thing when I use your suggested method.
When I click the square in the portfolio navigation it now brings me back to the right portfolio, but somehow any other elements that I set up on the respective portfolio page are missing (like a text on top).
I have seen that these are different pages, the original page with the portfolio (which I created) is www.domain.com/personal-projects and next to the portfolio thumbnails it has all the additional elements that I added like an additional text element above the portfolio thumbnails.
Now when I click on the small square in the portfolio navigation it brings me back to a different page: www.domain.com/portfolio-category/projectswhich only (!) has the portfolio thumbnails but it misses any additional elements like texts elements etc.
So my question is, is there a way to also edit the "portfolio-category pages" and add text elements so that they match, as they do not appear in my pages overview?

Basically I am just looking for a way to customize the WordPress archive/category page (add a title/text headline on top), since the archive/category page is the one where you get when you click the square in the portfolio navigation.

I hope it makes sense......

Hi Michael,
Now you have explained it better, please follow the GIF image to edit the category:

Thanks Art, that works but needs CSS tweaking in order to change the text size and font and make the container full width.
To make that easier, do you know if there is also a way to edit the archive/category pages using WPBakery or at least add a WPBakery text element?
Hi Michael,
Using the page builder it is not possible to edit the portfolio category, to make it full width add this CSS to Custom CSS:
