The Interest entry is per-account. With the target account selected in the Accounts tab, use the Edit button on the toolbar (or the Edit menu, or right click) to change that setting.

Examine each Card account by using the Edit window as well. Make sure each one is set to 'type' (bottom left column) "Credit Card". I suspect the accounts that aren't prompting you for payment are set as simply 'Liability'.

Note, there were some bugs affecting the interest option pop-up about a year or so ago. Be sure you're using an up-to-date GnuCash. (4.11 as of this message)

On other charge card accounts, when I reconcile them, nothing
happens and I have to manually enter the payment transaction.

The same kind of things happens also on reconciling
savings/checking for entering the interest every month,
on some accounts I always get a pop-up to enter interest
and on some accounts I never get the popup.

What determines whether a payment or interest window
pops up during reconciliation or not?

I looked under help | "Reconciling an Account to a Statement" where it says: "You can change this behaviour in the GnuCash Preferences from the menuEdit → Preferences in the Register tab by activating the checkbox Automatic credit card payment."
but that's checked. Is that a per-account thing? Or a global setting
for all accounts? The help implied that it's per-account but it looks
like it's global because it was set when I selected an account that's
not doing auto-popup, when to Edit | Preferences | Register
and the "Automatic credit card payment" seems to be always set.

Under Account tab | account | right-click | edit account there is a box
"Auto interest transfer" that when I hover it sounds like what
I want, but it's never checked even on accounts that do have
the popup for the payment.
