Module not working

Description

I am user 1, I enabled this module, and I went to the: http://mysite.org/admin/content/node-type/content-type-name page.

There are no configuration options available, even after re-saving the content type, clearing all caches, running cron, and running update.php (no updates available).

Two screenshots, one of the permissions page (proving that the module is enabled) and one of the CCK edit content type page.

Obviously I've got CCK on this site. Also attached is the result of $drush statusmodules

If I may be so bold, the documentation is a bit sparse. If you put in the URLs of the places where your module settings would be accessed, then I wouldn't be writing this. "...go to the settings form for each node type.." could be a URL. Lots of newbies wouldn't know what you're talking about.

Same here. I don't see any settings and it is not clear how to configure this. Some information will be greatly appreciated.

Looks like it isn't working in 6.14 :/ Try this module instead: http://drupal.org/project/better_formats .

Note however that the order you define role-based permissions in a content type is important -- the default order is Anonymous, Authenticated, Role1, Role2, etc. This means that the Authenticated setting takes precedence over any Role-based settings you set up and overrides them. I've had to move the Auth and Anonymous settings to the bottom of the list to get it working.

All of a sudden it kicked on for me (and I started getting errors because the default filter type was not enabled for the node type in question).

The settings are located under http://quixote.org/admin/content/node-type/your_node_type -> Submission Form Settings.

So either I couldn't find the settings before, or they just kicked on.

If the module doesn't work, try
1..Running cron
2. Clearing the cache
3. Resaving a CCK node or two

I'm going to go ahead and mark this as a documentation feature request. Please add to the documentation that Filter by Node Type settings are found under "Submission form settings"

Better Formats is really the answer to this problem. Better formats offers filter by node type plus more.
