Answer 1

From your screenshot, your module files are coming under printer\send directory. However your files should come under app\code\local\Chiragdodia\Mymodule.

Please take extra care of the Camel case letters above. For Magento, Chiragdodia and chiragdodia are not same.

Answer 2

Sir, According to my analysis the main issue are as follows

• First, your keyword are not the same as you deployed, means the keyword are case sensitive and you are using first letter as capital
• After completing all the thing just re-index the site data from step 1 : cd [MAGENTO_ROOT]/shell/ step 2 : ls -l "php indexer.php --status" step 3 : php indexer.php --reindex (index file name)

  index file name:

• catalog_product_attribute Product Attributes
• catalog_product_price Product Prices
• catalog_url Catalog Url Rewrites
• catalog_product_flat Product Flat Data
• catalog_category_flat Category Flat Data
• catalog_category_product Category Products
• catalogsearch_fulltext Catalog Search Index
• cataloginventory_stock Stock status

OR to reindex all command: "php indexer.php --reindexall"
