Invalid Blocktype

I try to help a user on magento.stackexchange. So I created his extension and created a new CMS site with the following content:

block type="atwix/cmsattr" template="atwix/cmsattr/list.phtml"


I also allowed the block in the backend at (System -> Permissions -> Blocks).

But if I call the site, then there is no output from the block.

app/code/local/Atwix/Cmsattr/etc/config.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Atwix_Cmsattr>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</Atwix_Cmsattr>
</modules>
<global>
<blocks>
<atwix_cmsattr>
<class>Atwix_Cmsattr_Block</class>
</atwix_cmsattr>
</blocks>
<models>
<atwix_cmsattr>
<class>Atwix_Cmsattr_Model</class>
</atwix_cmsattr>
</models>
</global>
</config>


app/code/local/Atwix/Cmsattr/Block/List.php

<?php
class Atwix_Cmsattr_Block_List extends Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_Abstract

protected $_itemCollection = null;

public function getItems()

$color = $this->getColor();
if (!$color)
return false;
if (is_null($this->itemCollection))
$this->_itemCollection = Mage::getModel('atwix_cmsattr/products')->getItemsCollection($color);


return $this->_itemCollection;




app/design/frontend/rwd/default/template/atwix/cmsattr/list.phtml

I replaced his template content with "hello world"

What is going on?

app/etc/modules

System/Configuration/Advanced

block type="atwix_cmsattr/list" template="atwix/cmsattr/list.phtml"

That should do the trick.

I solved it. I had to use

block type="atwix_cmsattr/list" template="atwix/cmsattr/list.phtml"
