I am trying to enable Zeroconf share discovery on my SMB shares; however, the checkbox for it doesn't exist as shown below. Why is this and how do I enable Zeroconf share discovery for SMB in TrueNAS (version 12.0-U1.1)?

Below is a screenshot from the TrueNAS documentation page, which looks completely different to my SMB settings page (above).

You're looking at the "TrueNAS Enterprise" documentation when you use that link at the top of the forum. (evident from the reference to TrueNAS Controller 2)

The FreeNAS documentation is more applicable to TrueNAS CORE.

The official TrueNAS CORE documentation (https://www.truenas.com/docs/hub/) isn't in a state that would cause me to highly recommend that you use it over the 11.3 documents which mostly cover how things still work.

Understood. Any ideas on how I can enable zeroconf share discovery for TrueNAS 12?

The discovery settings are under Network | Global Settings:

In the section Service Announcement... you probably want WS-discovery

(indeed that part is different since 11.3)
