Access Point Wifi on Raspberry

hi,
I have followed several guides but they often give different commands and I got lost.
I have a Pi3b+, I would like to make the Wireless Access Point work so that smartphones, laptops etc. connect in wifi to Pi3 and so to main router/Internet.
I follow this official doc and it works but after installing the Pi-Hole it doesn't work anymore: clients can't connect to wifi and/or got not access to Internet.

Is there an easier way to install PiHole or a simple guide that allows you to do what i asked? thanks

edit: reinstalling everything all wireless clients go to Internet but Pihole not logging! no queries, no ip... nothing. Where I wrong?

Please upload a debug log and post just the token URL that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:

pihole -d

or do it through the Web interface:

Tools > Generate Debug Log

done, here the log: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/RBxbyBFu/

(How) did you configure your router to make use of Pi-hole yet?

just done, it works!
I have a question for you: I need that only the wireless clients that connect the Access Point pass through Pihole while all other clients (i.e. those that connect directly via ethernet or wifi to the main router) access the Internet without passing through Pihole: would this configuration be possible WITHOUT edit configuration of main router?

Last question: I'm noticing that only the wireless clients connected to the Access Point I created on the pi3 are logged by Pihole (and not the other devices on the network): is this because during the installation I chose the WLAN interface (instead of eth or bridge) or for some mistake of mine?

To better meet your requirement of only filtering your RPi's wifi network clients, you could consider to turn your RPi into a router for its wifi.

Be careful to NOT install dnsmasq in that case, as Pi-hole is already embedding its own tailored version of it, pihole-FTL.

When following the guide, you should SKIP the section on editing dnsmasq configuration files.

Instead, configure your Pi-hole's Interface settings to respond only to wlan0 via Settings | DNS.

Then enable Pi-hole's DHCP server via Settings | DHCP.
Set the 192.168.4.1 (as per the guide) as the Router (gateway) IP address and stick with the defaults otherwise.
