October 2004 at The Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, 
The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia.

The minitoc in not appearing after chapter!

What I missed?

This is the compilable code (from a duplicate question posted by the same user: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/146925/minitoc-not-working) plus a solution.

You need to to add mtcaddchapter after \listoffigures and listoftables, like this:

\documentclass [11pt,oneside,final]{book}
\usepackage{minitoc}
\usepackage[round]{natbib}
\usepackage[font={footnotesize,it}]{caption}
\usepackage[Lenny]{fncychap}
%     \setarab

\title{\center \textbf{AAAAAAAAA}}

\begin{document}

\maketitle
\chapter*{\thispagestyle{empty} \begin{center} \vspace*{2in}  To my AAAAA \end{center}}
\chapter*{\thispagestyle{empty} Abstract}
\chapter*{\thispagestyle{empty} Acknowledgments}
\dominitoc
\tableofcontents
\listoffigures \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Figures} \mtcaddchapter                     %new code
\listoftables \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Tables}   \mtcaddchapter                     %new code
\clearpage
\pagenumbering{arabic}
\chapter{Introduction}
\minitoc \newpage
 \section{AAAAAAA}
 WEFWEFWEFWEFWEF
\end{document}

As an alternative, you could add \mtcaddchapter[List of Tables] instead of \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Tables} and similarly for the list of figures. See pag. 52 of the manual for other similar cases.

Here's one possible solution using titletoc for both the main and the partial ToCs; the titlesec package was also used so that \chapter will start and print its partial ToC automatically:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{titletoc}

\newcommand\partialtocname{\contentsname}

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\titleformat{\chapter}[display]
  {\normalfont\huge\bfseries}{\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter}{20pt}{\Huge}
  [\vspace*{2pc}\titlerule\vspace*{1pc}%
    \startcontents\vbox{\Large\partialtocname}\vskip1ex
    \printcontents{l}{1}{\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}}\vspace*{1pc}\titlerule]
\titlecontents*{lsection}[0pt]
  {\small\normalfont}{\thecontentslabel\space}{}
  {,~\itshape\thecontentspage}[\space\textbullet\space][.]
\titlecontents*{lsubsection}[0pt]{}{}{}{}

\chapter{Chapter One}
\section{Section One One}
\subsection{Subsection One One One}
\subsection{Subsection One One Two}
\section{Section One Two}
\subsection{Subsection One Two One}
\subsection{Subsection One Two Two}
\section{Section One Three}
\subsection{Subsection One Three One}
\subsection{Subsection One Three Two}

\chapter{Chapter Two}
\section{Section Two One}
\subsection{Subsection TwoOne One}
\subsection{Subsection Two One Two}
\section{Section Two Two}
\subsection{Subsection Two Two One}
\subsection{Subsection Two Two Two}

\end{document}

Of course, your thesis will have some chapters that won't require a partial ToC such as those of the front and backmatter sections (Acknowledgements, Preface, Main ToC, possibly Appendices and the Bibliography). I did a improvement to my initial code defining a boolean to let you easily activate and deactivate the partial ToCs; initially the boolean is set to false, so the frontmatter chapters won't have partial ToCs; once you begin the mainmatter (in fact, whenever you want to start using partal ToCs) all you have to do is to set the boolean to true using \chapterwithtoctrue. For the backmatter (or, in general, to deactivate the partial ToCs) all you have to do is to set the boolean to false using \chapterwithtocfalse; a complete example:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{titletoc}

% The name to be used as title for the partialToCs
% initially set to be equal to \contentsname
\newcommand\partialtocname{\contentsname}
% depending on this boolean, \chapter will create or not a partial ToC
\newif\ifchapterwithtoc
\chapterwithtocfalse

\titleformat{\chapter}[display]
  {\normalfont\huge\bfseries}{\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter}{20pt}{\Huge}
  [\ifchapterwithtoc
      \vspace*{2pc}\titlerule\vspace*{1pc}%
      \startcontents\vbox{\Large\partialtocname}\vskip1ex
      \printcontents{l}{1}{\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}}\vspace*{1pc}\titlerule%
    \else\fi%
  ]

\titlecontents*{lsection}[0pt]
  {\small\normalfont}{\thecontentslabel\space}{}
  {,~\itshape\thecontentspage}[\space\textbullet\space][.]
\titlecontents*{lsubsection}[0pt]{}{}{}{}

\begin{document}

\frontmatter
\chapter*{Acknowledgements}
\chapter*{Preface}
\tableofcontents

\mainmatter
\chapterwithtoctrue

\chapter{Chapter One}
\section{Section One One}
\subsection{Subsection One One One}
\subsection{Subsection One One Two}
\section{Section One Two}
\subsection{Subsection One Two One}
\subsection{Subsection One Two Two}
\section{Section One Three}
\subsection{Subsection One Three One}
\subsection{Subsection One Three Two}

\chapter{Chapter Two}
\section{Section Two One}
\subsection{Subsection TwoOne One}
\subsection{Subsection Two One Two}
\section{Section Two Two}
\subsection{Subsection Two Two One}
\subsection{Subsection Two Two Two}

\backmatter
\chapterwithtocfalse

\chapter{Appenix One}
\chapter{Appenix Two}

\end{document}

This can be improved even more by appropriately patching (wuth the help of the etoolbox package, for example) \frontmatter, \mainmatter and \backmatter.

[Tex/LaTex] Section* displayed in minitoc and not in “normal”toc

Here's one possible solution using the titletoc package; the idea is to use \addcontentsline with extension ptc (the default extension used by titletoc for the partial ToCs) to include information in the partial ToC only:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{titletoc}

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\startcontents
\chapter{Test Chapter}
\printcontents{}{1}{}

\section{Test Numbered Section}
\section*{Test Unnumbered Section}
\addcontentsline{ptc}{section}{Test Unnumbered Section}
\section{Another Test Numbered Section}
\section*{Another Test Unnumbered Section}
\addcontentsline{ptc}{section}{Another Test Unnumbered Section}

\end{document}
