Can't find the option to create a new Maven project in IntelliJ IDEA 2016.1

Question

I am trying to create a new Maven project using IntelliJ IDEA 2016.1. I am following the Jetbrains help page for help.

Following step 1, I click on File -> New -> Module, and I'm shown an option dialogue without a Maven option.

I do have Maven installed, and I'm able to use it through the command line.

Answer 1

Turns out I didn't have the Maven plugin enabled.

To enable it I went to File -> Settings... -> Plugins and clicked the check box with Maven. One restart later and it works fine.

Answer 2

File->New->Project..., Maybe you will find out.
