If you are trying to load a custom model using the build in Mage::getSingleton() method and are struggling because it keeps looking in the Mage/ directory for your model instead of your custom model, the best solution I found was simply to put the entire class name of the model. eg doesn’t work: //trying to load EC/Custom/Model/Blah.php Mage::getSingleton('EC_custom/blah'); does work //trying to load EC/Custom/Model/Blah.php Mage::getSingleton('EC_Custom_Model_Blah');

However, if you don’t know how to use those features then they are wasted.
