When creating content: Force the checkbox "Provide a menu link" to be checked by default When creating content, I would like to force the checkbox "Provide a menu link" to be checked by default.

What I'm really trying to do:


I created a new content type
I used node_add to get the form associated to my content type and render it into my template.
In my module I used the hook_form_alter to hide some fields of my form.


But when the user submit the form and the node is created, there is no menu link created by default.
I looked everywhere for this! The Menu Force module does this:


  This module enables you to make the Menu Settings required on specific content types.


After installing a "Make the Menu Settings mandatory for this content type" tick box becomes available on the settings for each content type.
