Next to Guiter Tricks I use https://www.all-guitar-chords.com/scales


However, the scale I learned is called there a Major Pentatonic Scale. So, which one is right? Minor or Major? Their Minor is different from yours.


Perhaps Guitar Tricks has a similar complete configuration to find quick all chords and scales. 

It's possible to play the same note in more than one place on the guitar.  As a result there are different fretboard layouts for the same notes & scales.  So, there are different patterns that can be used to achieve the same musical result.


If you show me exactly what pattern you are seeing on that site I can help explain it to you.


This tutorial covers both the theory & practice of the pentatonic major & pentatonic minor scales.
