  • you didn’t say but did you create separate databases? if not, you will need to change the second and third install’s $table_prefix in wp-config.php to something different than 1st install

    To my knowledge, I have all in one database.

    When you say ‘something different,’ what do you mean?

    Thanks for the help.

    likely your 1st install in wp-config.php your table prefix line looks like this:
    $table_prefix = 'wp_';
    so in your 2nd and third blogs’ wp-config.php you will need to change that line for each install to be different – like so:
    $table_prefix = 'wp2nd_';
    and
    $table_prefix = 'wp3rd_';
    for examples

    this will create tables in the database for each blog
    so when you make these changes to wp-config.php you will simply run the installer again for your 2nd and third blog
    after that, all will be well
