Based on the element “Product-Box” I created my own element and the corresponding storefront-template. I only changed the names in the index.js.
In the backend, the data of the selected product is also correctly displayed and stored. But in the frontend I do not see any product. If I dump() the data in the storefront-template, the value data = null.
With the default product box element it works fine.
Does anybody have an idea what could be the reason for this?

I have the same problem at a custom text element. I copied the original text element to my extension. It’s working fine at the backend, but at the frontend **element.data** is null. But in translated -\> config -\> content -\> value, there is my string. The original template uses {{ element.data.content|raw }} for the output which is null.

Have you tried { element.config.content.value|raw } for your text element? This is how i did it for my text element.
If i’ll do this for the product box i only get a hash value.

Yes, that’s working, but I don’t know if it’s the „right“ way. I will use that for the moment.

I searched the platform for instances of **AbstractCmsElementResolver** and then mirrored the location in my plugin. So I added it to **Plugin/src/Core/Content/Media/Cms/Type** and used the namespace **Plugin\Core\Content\Media\Cms\Type**. I then added the service to my **Plugin/src/Resources/config/services.xml**.
I am not 100% about why this works, nor why I need to create a DataResolver, or if this applies only to when I copy an element, as when I [created a new custom element](https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-platform-dev-en/how-to/custom-cms-element) I did not have to create a resolver. If anyone has an answer to this, that would be great
