Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.
I have already unchecked all options of the Menu Settings in Content Type edit page (eg. /admin/content/node-type/page). But on Create Content/ Edit Content page, the Menu Settings still appear for all content types and all menus/parent nodes can be selected.
One thing catch my attention on the Content Type Menu Settings. There is a line saying "Enable Menu Settings for this content type" but there is no associated checkbox. Either a checkbox is missing or this line is just pointlessly repeating the next line. See the drawing below
┌─▼Menu Settings────────────────────
│Enable Menu Settings for this content type.
│Enable the Menus you want to be available for this Content Type:
│[ ] Primary links
│[ ] Secondary links
└─────────────────────────────────
Are you logged in as user 1? if so your will still see the menu settings as the global user will bypass all permissions. Try it with a different user account?
I have exactly the same issue as SeriousMatters has: I have no checkbox for ''Enable Menu Settings for this content type.'' in the Content Type Menu Settings, for all users, with Drupal 6.2.2, ctm-6.x-1.1 and CCK 6.x.2.9.
I have the same issue, i have the checkboxes in the content type page and i select the menu i want available but upon creating that content type (logged in as a non root user) i can still see all menus and items. This is also true if i select no menus. The above posters seemed confused about a line of text that appears twice, "I have no checkbox for ''Enable Menu Settings for this content type.'' in the Content Type Menu Settings, they were thinking it should possibly have a checkbox to "enable" this menu functionality when in reality the module is installed and will automatically limit all content types and there is no "on" or "off" other than turning the module on and off. I also am running 6.2.2 as mentioned above. Would you like a list of modules i am running? I wish i could just upgrade to Drupal 7 but sadly i'm on a university server and they don't allow 7 for some reason.
*Update* I found i had the module in drupal/modules folder and when i moved it to /drupal/sites/all/modules (i created this directory per tutorial on how to properly install drupal modules) it seemed to do the trick.

mshepherd commentedDo you see the Menu Settings section on the content type edit page (example /admin/content/types/page/edit)?
