@NLange7 Alright, let me try to help you with this. It sounds like you bought a theme and modified it before creating a child theme. Then, you cloned that child theme. Here's what should have happened:
1. Buy the main theme, don't touch it.
2. Create your first website using a child theme from the main theme.
3. For your second website, create another child theme from the main theme.
Now, check these things:
1. Make sure each website uses its own child theme (Website 1 with Child 1, Website 2 with Child 2).
2. In the second website, create a new page and see what footer, colors, and settings appear.
3. Compare the global settings of both child themes and make small changes to see if they save correctly.
4. Check the original main theme to see if you can reset it to default options.
Lastly, ensure your browser isn't showing outdated information due to cache. Try opening different windows or using incognito mode.
I hope these tips help! If you have more questions, feel free to ask. I'll try to guide you further if I can.

Hi @NLange7,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community!
I wanted to share this Community post where @Oezcan recommended using an extends statement to associate the child theme with the parent theme.
I'll also tag two other subject matter experts to see if they have any advice:
Hi @Indra & @mangelet, do you have any tips for @NLange7? Thank you!
Cheers
