You have added the additional style (copy of cassiopeia Default) to your child template.
You can delete this additional style if you don't need it. (id 13)

Which one should be deleted?

  • The cassiopeia_child - Default is the style created by the default values of the templateDetails.xml
  • The Cassiopeia_child, copy of Cassiopeia - Default is an actual copy of the cassiopeia active settings, (with any changes reflected)

Usually you want the child template to inherit all the style changes of the parent, so if that's the case then delete the one with id=12. If you want to alter the child and you don't care for any of the parent settings (ie start from an empty slate) then delete id=13.
