<p>So i've got this little plugin named AnnuaireAdherents with a variable that i try to access from within a template : 
<code>
annuaireadherents/
├── AnnuaireAdherentsPlugin.php
├── services
│   ├── AnnuaireAdherents_Service.php
│   └── Proxy.php
├── twigextensions
│   └── AnnuaireAdherentsTwigExtension.php
└── variables
    └── AnnuaireAdherentsVariable.php
</code></p>

<p>The variable should return a dynamic array, but let's try a static one first :</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php namespace Craft;

/**
 * Variables provides access to list of adherents inside templates
 */
class AnnuaireAdherentsVariable {

    /**
     * Liste d'adhérents
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public function adherents() {
        return array(
            array(
                "raison_sociale" =&gt; "JOHN DOE &amp; Co",
                "contact" =&gt; "JOHN DOE",
                "cp" =&gt; "99999",
                "address1" =&gt; "DESTINY STREET",
                "locality" =&gt; "NOWHERE",
                "mail" = "john.doe@nowhere.net"
            )
        );
    }
}
</code></pre>

<p>I've tried every namespace variants i could think of to access it inside a template : </p>

<pre><code>{% for adh in craft.annuaireAdherents.adherents %}
    {{ adh.raison_sociale }}
{% endfor %}
</code></pre>

<p>but i keep receiving the error :</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Method "annuaireAdherents" for object "Craft\CraftVariable" does not exist </p>
</blockquote>

<p>Is it the correct namespace ?
Do i have to relaunch Apache and Craft between each code modification to retest my variable ?
Could there be another error that is masking me the true cause of this message ?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot for any clue /  direction to investigate.</p>

Sorry to ask, but did you install your plugin in Settings/Plugins?

Don't be sorry to ask : it was the main cause !

I have to sync with the craft database updated by my coworker, and by doing that, i totally forgot that my plugin would be uninstalled as he doesn't have the plugin yet !!

Thanks a lot for that silly one ! My apologies ! :)

Can't access plugin variable in a twig template?

The variable should return a dynamic array, but let's try a static one first :

                "mail" = "john.doe@nowhere.net"
            )
        );
    }
}

I've tried every namespace variants i could think of to access it inside a template :

Is it the correct namespace ?

**Reinstalling the plugin after a database update** just solved the problem : the database i sync'ed with didn't have the plugin installed (as it is still in development)

Sorry for that one... :)
