Answers.Body: <p>I had the same problem but fixed it - the problem was that I didn't have the pre requisites installed <em>before</em> installing the extension. One of them I installed afterwards. So, I disabled then uninstalled the contact layout extension, then re-installed it.  Then the menu item appeared as 'Contact Summary Layouts' as the last item on the 'Customise Data and Screens' menu.</p>

Answers.Text: Thanks. I had tried disabling/re-enabling the extension, but I didn't uninstall it. The full uninstall did the trick.

Fixing the engine did not solve the problem of the missing menu.)</p>

Comments.Text: Same here, but using Drupal - except the table was created as InnoDB.  But no menu item.  Bootstrap theme installed in Drupal, met all the prereqs but no menu item.  Frustrating!

  I had the same problem but fixed it - the problem was that I didn't have the pre requisites installed *before* installing the extension. One of them I installed afterwards. So, I disabled then uninstalled the contact layout extension, then re-installed it. Then the menu item appeared as 'Contact Summary Layouts' as the last item on the 'Customise Data and Screens' menu.
