The Backup tab gives you an overview of all themes in your ThemeWare® family (base theme + duplicates) – including the sales channel assignment, a direct jump into the configuration and, of course, backing up the theme configuration.
Each theme row shows which sales channel the theme is assigned to (or that it isn't assigned yet). Via "Configure" you jump straight into the Theme-Manager for that specific theme – for duplicates that means precisely the theme that is live on the respective sales channel.
With the practical "Copy" function you back up a theme's configuration with a single click and make manual backups much easier. Expand, copy the JSON, done.

Add-ons
ThemeWare® add-ons extend your theme with additional features that you can unlock individually as needed. Each add-on is an independent subscription and can be booked or cancelled independently of the others.
Why add-ons?
We want to keep the price of ThemeWare® stable while continuing to develop and improve the theme on an ongoing basis.
Many new features are part of the classic theme scope and will continue to be integrated directly into ThemeWare®. However, some features and feature requests go well beyond what is typically expected from a theme.
These extended features are offered as optional add-ons. This allows you to enable them only when you need them — while keeping the choice in your hands and ensuring that not every customer has to pay for functionality they may not use.
Available add-ons
Backup Manager
Save, transfer and directly edit your theme configuration. File export, guided import with automatic pre-backup safeguard and an inline JSON editor with live validation and change counter.
CMS element for category and landing pages: present multiple subcategories together with their direct subcategories in a clean card or list layout.
Add-ons are unlocked as in-app purchases directly within the Shopware admin. The entire purchase process runs through your Shopware account — final price, payment details and billing come from the Shopware Store.
Process:
Click the desired add-on in the ThemeWare® Hub (tab "Add-ons" or "Variants").
If you haven't yet activated the "Shopware Extension Store" and your shop isn't yet linked to your Shopware account, you'll be taken to the connection modal. This happens automatically.
Billing: Monthly, cancellable anytime, via your Shopware account.
Any add-ons you have purchased or booked will be marked accordingly.
You can cancel them by removing the licence from your Shopware account (Merchant → Shops → [Your Shop] → Licences).
Five design variants — Bike, Kids, Global, Fit and Plants — are bundled with the theme at no extra cost. Switch your shop's look with a single click, no separate licence required.
Pixel Coffee and Pixel Sponsorship are voluntary contributions to support ThemeWare® development. They do not unlock additional features; instead, they grant an official "Pixel Friend" / "Pixel Sponsor" status as a thank-you. – Thank you very much! 💙

Note: This article is work in progress.
Die ThemeWare® "Hero-Slider"-Blöcke sind CMS-Blöcke die mit den entsprechenden Slider CMS-Elementen befüllt werden müssen. Andere CMS-Elemente funktionieren nicht im Hero-Slider.
Die Slider-Blöcke haben daher spezielle CMS-Elemente.

Hinweis: Den "Hero-Slider" findest du in der Rubrik "ThemeWare® Allgemein" [Pro]
The "automatic transition" (autoplay) is disabled (from version 3.7 or 4.0) due to accessibility concerns. You can enable this feature via the theme configuration.
In den Block-Einstellungen hast du die Möglichkeit CSS-Klassen für den entsprechenden CMS-Block zu definieren.
Da der ThemeWare® "Hero-Slider" (ab ThemeWare® 2.0) auf dem Bootstrap 5 Carousel () basiert, sind folgende CSS-Klassen besonders interessant:
Füge die CSS-Klasse carousel-fade dem Block hinzu, um Slides mit einem Fade-Übergang anstelle eines Slides zu animieren.
Füge die CSS-Klasse carousel-dark dem Block hinzu, um Steuerelemente dunkler zu gestalten.
The controls of the "Hero Slider" have a drop shadow for optimal visibility. This is especially helpful if the colour of the images in the slider varies significantly. If you don't want the drop shadows, simply add the CSS class flat-controls to the corresponding block.

Welcome to the ThemeWare® Manual and thank you for choosing ThemeWare®!
The ThemeWare® documentation for Shopware 6 is based on 3 "pillars":
The Service Portal
The Service Portal is always the first place to go for all your ThemeWare® needs. It is your personal dashboard for ThemeWare®.
Backup Manager
The Backup Manager saves, transfers and edits your theme configuration directly in the "Backup" tab of the ThemeWare® Hub. It bundles three functions: export of the configuration as a JSON file, a guided import with a mandatory pre-backup safeguard, and an advanced mode with an inline JSON editor for direct editing.
Downloads the theme's configuration values as a JSON file. Useful as a safety net before larger changes, or for transferring settings between shops.
Confirm the purchase — the add-on is active immediately.
How the purchase works
Final price in the purchase dialog
The prices shown in the Hub are reference values. The actual final price including country-specific adjustments is shown directly in Shopware's purchase modal before confirmation.

Click "Export".
The browser downloads a file named tcinn-<theme-name>-<date>.json.
Loads a previously exported JSON file into the chosen theme. Existing configuration values are fully replaced, so the import dialog walks you through a backup step first.
Step by step:
In the backup tab, click "Import" on the target theme. The "Import theme configuration" modal opens.
In the modal, click "Download backup" (step 1). The current configuration is saved as a safety net.
Click "Choose file …" (step 2) and select the JSON file to import.
If the file is accepted, click "Import configuration".
The theme is recompiled automatically.
For experienced users: a JSON editor directly below each theme, allowing the configuration to be edited without going through the standard UI.
Step by step:
At the top of the backup tab, click "Activate advanced mode".
A JSON editor appears below each theme, showing its current configuration.
Before saving, click "Export" on the affected theme (backup is mandatory).
Edit the JSON.
Click "Save".
The theme is recompiled automatically.
Typical scenarios for the backup functions:
Backup before larger changes — Before a plugin update, an extensive theme adjustment, or activating "advanced mode", download a backup.
Restore after a mistake — A change broke the theme or caused unwanted side effects? Simply re-import the previously exported JSON file into the affected theme.
Write a configuration into another theme — You have an existing custom duplicate and want to merge in the configuration of a different variant (e.g. from Plants). Export from the source theme, import into the target theme.
Move a setup from test shop to live shop — You develop on a test shop and want to apply the finished theme setup on production. Export on test, download the file, import on live.
Detail tweaks at JSON level for power users — Individual configuration values need to be changed quickly and precisely, without going through the standard UI in the Theme-Manager. Activate "advanced mode" for that.
Important: The Backup Manager is an add-on and must be unlocked separately. Why add-ons?
Theme configuration
Export
What gets exported?
Only the theme configuration values (configValues) — i.e. all your adjustments to the theme. Uploaded media (logos, images) are referenced by ID; the actual media files are not bundled in the current format.
Import
Existing configuration is replaced
Import overwrites current configuration values completely. That's why the backup in step 1 is mandatory — without it the import button stays disabled.
Cross-variant import
If the import file comes from a different ThemeWare® variant (e.g. a Plants file imported into a Modern theme), the import detects this automatically and shows a notice. Your customizations are transferred, while non-customized fields fall back to the current variant's defaults.
Media note
If the file references media IDs (logos, images), those may not exist in the target shop and need to be reassigned manually after import.
Advanced mode
Edit with care
Invalid JSON input can damage the theme or break the storefront. The "Save" button stays disabled until a backup has been created for the theme and the input is valid JSON.
Deactivate advanced mode
Use "Exit advanced mode" at the top of the page. The editors are hidden again — unsaved changes are lost.
Use cases

The ThemeWare® Manual
In the ThemeWare® Manual you will find information about all the features and functions of ThemeWare®.
The ThemeWare® Manual is the complete reference for all ThemeWare® configurations and features.
In the "Manuel" section you will find the entire Theme configuration of ThemeWare®. To help you find your way around quickly, we have adapted the structure of the documentation to that of the theme configuration.
The theme configuration is divided into 4 elements:
Tabs in the tab navigation
Blocks in each tab (accordion elements to expand)
Sections that divide a block
Configuration fields in the individual sections
Structure of the ThemeWare® configuration
In diesem Handbuch haben wir diese 4 Elemente wie folgt dargestellt:

Accessibility concerns: Enabling this feature may make parts of your storefront inaccessible to users with disabilities. This may result in non-compliance with accessibility laws applicable in your jurisdiction (e.g., the European Accessibility Act).
Please note: By enabling this feature, you acknowledge this risk and accept full responsibility.
Switch your shop's look with another variant or take over your customizations. Both functions create a duplicate — your existing theme stays untouched.
The variants tab shows all 15 ThemeWare® variants. Creating a variant produces a new theme duplicate in the look of the selected variant. Your existing theme of course stays untouched.
Which function do you need?
Create variant — create a fresh variant, quick and clean, without your existing customizations.
Take over configuration — create a variant and bring along your customizations (logos, colours, texts) from an existing theme.
Filters & tags
In the Variants tab in the Hub, you can filter the overview by:
Top sellers — the five best-selling variants
Popular — popular variants across all styles
Light — designs with a light, friendly look
Dark — designs with a darker feel
Boxed — designs with a boxed layout
Included — the five variants already bundled
Add-on — the ten variants you can unlock
Optional: pick a filter (e.g. Top sellers, Light, Dark, Boxed) to narrow the list.
Click the desired variant card. The "Create variant as duplicate" modal opens.
Review the selection (source and target).
The new duplicate then appears in your Theme-Manager.
Take over the look and customizations from another installed ThemeWare® variant (Pro or Cloud) into your current theme. Useful for example when moving from the Cloud app to the Pro variant, or when you want to continue with a different variant as your base.
Prerequisite: at least one second ThemeWare® variant (Pro or Cloud) is installed in the shop. Otherwise a notice is shown instead of the selection field.
Step by step:
In the "Take over configuration" section, pick the source from the dropdown. Available are all other ThemeWare® variants (Pro/Cloud) plus their duplicates.
The target is automatically your current theme (shown read-only next to the source).
Click "Take over configuration".
A new duplicate is created under your current theme as parent. The look and customizations of the source (logo, colors, typography, etc.) are preserved.
For details on the available add-on variants, tags and prices, see the Add-ons overview.
Typical scenarios for both functions:
Try out a variant — You want to see how another variant (e.g. Plants) would look with your setup, without altering your existing theme.
Different looks per sales channel — You run multiple sales channels and want to assign each one a different variant.
Fresh start — You want to start over with the factory defaults of a variant, without your previous customizations.
Switch between two Pro plugins — You have e.g. ThemeWare® Plants and Modern installed in parallel and want to continue your Plants configuration under Modern.
Switch from Cloud (app) to Pro (plugin) — You have the cloud app installed, buy the Pro plugin in addition, and want to take over your cloud configuration. The cloud app can then be uninstalled.
Variant no longer offered in the store — Your previous variant is no longer available for purchase. You switch to an active variant and bring your setup along.
Design variants
15 looks for your shop
From a modern all-rounder to a dark outdoor look — give your shop a completely new character with just one click. Five variants are bundled with the theme; ten more designs can be unlocked as a monthly add-on. Includes card, boxed and clean layouts, light and dark themes.
Add-on variants
Ten additional design variants, individually unlockable.
Included variants
Five variants are bundled with the theme at no extra cost.
Add-on variants cost €14.99 per month each, cancellable anytime. Purchases run through your Shopware account.
You can create a theme duplicate from any variant in the Hub with a single click — the new duplicate appears in the look of the selected variant. Your existing theme stays untouched.
Block configuration
ThemeWare® extends selected CMS blocks with a block configuration in the CMS sidebar (2). The block configuration allows you to control the responsive behaviour of your CMS blocks conveniently - without having to enter CSS classes manually.
The configuration is divided into two areas: the Responsive block layout (3 – gutter and alignment) and the Responsive column layout (4 – column arrangement, visibility and expert mode).
This is the first version of this feature. We already have some ideas for further configurations, but we’d like to focus on your feedback on the current version first.
Tip: Do you have any suggestions for further configurations or other features for ThemeWare®? If so, please feel free to send us your ideas at any time via the ThemeWare Service Portal:
Important: This feature is only available in the ThemeWare® Pro Edition.
Responsive block layout
In the "Responsive block layout" (3) section you configure the gutter and the alignment of the columns within the block.
Gutter
Sets the horizontal and vertical gap between the columns. You can choose from various predefined spacing values or "Default".
Alignment
Select the horizontal alignment of the columns within the row:
Default (left) - Default alignment
Center - Columns are centered
Right - Columns are right-aligned
With the "Advanced configuration" toggle you can configure gutter and alignment individually for each viewport. The following viewports are available:
Desktop Large (≥1200px)
Desktop (≥992px)
Tablet (≥768px)
In the "Responsive column layout" (4) section you configure the column arrangement and visibility of the individual columns.
Column arrangement
Sets how many columns are displayed side by side instead of stacked in a specific viewport. For example, you can reduce three columns to two on a tablet.
Visibility
Controls whether a column is visible or hidden in a specific viewport.
Asymmetric from
Only available for asymmetric column blocks (e.g. Two columns 3-9, Three columns 3-3-6). Sets from which viewport the columns are displayed in the predefined asymmetric layout of the block. Below this viewport the columns are arranged equally or stacked.
Expert mode
Allows manual CSS class input per column (e.g. col-12 col-md-6
With the "Advanced configuration" toggle you can set column arrangement and visibility individually for each viewport.
Not all CMS blocks support all areas of the block configuration. The following overview shows which block types offer which configuration areas:
Symmetric column blocks such as "Two columns", "Three columns", "Four columns" and "Six columns" support:

Hinweis: Spalten-Blöcke findest du in der Rubrik "ThemeWare® Grids" [Pro]
Aufgrund des fluiden Webdesigns von Shopware 6 gibt es keine "perfekte" oder "richtige" Bildgröße. Die Größe der einzelnen Elemente ist variabel und abhängig vom verfügbaren Platz den die Elemente haben. Der verfügbare Platz unterliegt diversen Faktoren wie dem konfigurierbaren Padding des Blocks, der konfigurierbaren Container-Breite, dem Darstellungsmodus der Erlebniswelt und natürlich durch die Fensterbreite selbst in verschiedenen Viewports bestimmt. Dadurch kann es nicht den einen Wert geben.
Wir empfehlen daher für Bild-Elemente in Grid-Blöcken den Darstellungsmodus "Füllen". Dabei wird das Bild so skaliert und ggf. abgeschnitten, dass der Bild-Container immer vollständig ausgefüllt ist. Die Größe der Elemente selber kannst du über die Konfiguration "Minimale Höhe" definieren, mehr Informationen dazu findest du im folgenden Abschnitt.
Als Bild-Elemente kannst du die Teaser von ThemeWare® in den Grids nutzen. (Das Bild-Element von Shopware funktioniert ebenfalls.)
Die Größe der Elemente definierst du über die Konfiguration "Minimale Höhe" im Modus "Füllen" der entsprechenden Elemente. Damit Grids gut funktionieren ist hier etwas Mathematik nötig: Die "Minimale Höhe" der Elemente auf der linken Seite sollte in Summe dieselbe Höhe haben wie die Summe der "Minimale Höhe" aller Elemente auf der rechten Seite. Addiere etwaige Lücken (Standard: 40px) zwischen den Elementen noch dazu.
In den Block-Einstellungen hast du die Möglichkeit CSS-Klassen für den entsprechenden CMS-Block zu definieren.
Für die ThemeWare® Grid-Blöcke sind folgende CSS-Klassen für die Abstände der Elemente im Block interessant:
You can find some examples of use in our demo shops:
Text teaser
The ThemeWare® "Text teaser" is independent of its CMS block. You can use the teaser in other CMS blocks too. Just try out different blocks (for example with a different number of columns) to personalise your Shopping Experience.

CMS extensions
With ThemeWare® 0.5.0 we have released our major CMS update and with it our first ThemeWare® CMS extensions. All CMS extensions were selected and developed with a focus on sales promotion and customisability. The many layout options speak for themselves.
We have put an huge amount of passion into every single CMS extension and are really proud of them. We are therefore particularly pleased about the positive feedback. Thank you very much!
From a technical point of view, there are unfortunately a few technical limitations on the part of Shopware at the moment, but Shopware is already working on fundamental improvements - also with regard to the possibility of being able to provide CMS extensions in the Shopware 6 Cloud.
As soon as it is possible, we will revise our CMS extensions and make them available in the cloud edition as well. Unfortunately, we cannot say when this will be the case at the moment.
We continue to work continuously on new CMS extensions and on improvements to existing CMS extensions. So you can look forward to much more.
CMS blocks
In this section you will find everything about the ThemeWare® CMS blocks which you can select in the "Block categories" and add to your Shopping Experiences.
With ThemeWare® you get an extensive and growing selection of CMS blocks to customize your shop. The ThemeWare® CMS blocks are available from version 0.5.0 in the Pro Edition and some of them in the Cloud Edition.
More CMS blocks are in the pipeline for both the Pro Edition and the Cloud Edition and will follow with upcoming updates. Be curious!
Click on the plus icon to select a CMS block.
Image slide (Hero slider)
Das ThemeWare® CMS-Element "Image slide (Hero slider)" ist explizit für die Verwendung im CMS-Block "Hero slider (...)" vorgesehen. Das CMS-Element ist nicht für die Nutzung in anderen CMS-Blöcken ausgelegt und funktioniert nicht in anderen CMS-Blöcken.
You can configure the ThemeWare® CMS element "Text slide (Hero slider)" as follows:

Continue with a custom duplicate as base — You have a polished custom duplicate under one variant and want to continue its look under a different variant.
Create variant
Sales channel assignment
The newly created duplicate is not yet assigned to a sales channel. Open the Theme-Manager and assign the theme to your desired sales channel for it to go live in the storefront.
Logos
Logos are inherited from your current variant's plugin theme — your own uploaded logos are included. You can swap them in the Theme-Manager after creating.
Background images
These variants ship with factory background images: Bath, Bike, Bio, Electric, Exquisite, Fit, Global, Kids, Living, Outdoor, Plants, Strong.
When switching to a variant without a background (e.g. Bike → Modern), the old background image of the source variant initially stays visible — this is a known Shopware limitation that we cannot resolve automatically right now.
You have two easy ways to remove the background image in the new theme:
Hide it (recommended): In the Theme-Manager you'll find a show/hide option next to each background image. Set it to "do not show" — the image disappears immediately without you having to remove the media.
Upload your own: Simply set a different image in the Theme-Manager — this overrides the inherited factory background.
Take over configuration (Migration)
Note: The flyout cards are still in development. We welcome your constructive feedback.
Sales channel assignment
The newly created duplicate is not yet assigned to a sales channel. Open the Theme-Manager and assign the theme to your desired sales channel for it to go live in the storefront.
Cloud app as source
ThemeWare® Cloud editions (apps) can also serve as a source. Handy when moving from Cloud to Pro: take over the cloud configuration once, then uninstall the cloud app.
Source = duplicate
If you select a duplicate as the source, customizations from the underlying plugin or app theme are transferred as well.
Uninstall the source
After a successful take-over the source plugin or app is no longer needed for the new theme — you can safely uninstall it.

Usually, a CMS extension is made of a CMS block and a CMS element.
A CMS block provides the container for CMS elements. CMS blocks have one or more slots. A CMS element is placed in each slot.
CMS block
CMS element
Replace element
You can place almost any CMS element in most CMS blocks. An example of this is the ThemeWare® grid and column blocks.
However, there are also CMS blocks in which the CMS element cannot be exchanged (e.g. the ThemeWare® "Subcategory navigation") and CMS elements that only work in a particular CMS blocks (e.g. the ThemeWare® "Hero slider" elements).
In addition to universal CMS blocks, there are also universal CMS elements. These work in almost all CMS elements (e.g. the ThemeWare® "Teaser" elements).
As a CMS element does not have to belong to a CMS block and vice versa, we generally speak of "CMS extensions". And the nice thing about the ThemeWare® CMS extensions is that you don't need any other plug-ins or apps! You get everything directly with your ThemeWare® theme.
If you want to configure an alternative language in a CMS element, as usual in Shopware 6 you can simply change the language at the top right in the editor of the corresponding Shopping Experience.
Shopping Experience: Switch language
Stand: Shopware 6.5.x
Die CMS-Blöcke bzw. CMS-Element erhältst du mit entsprechenden ThemeWare®-Updates. Es gibt keine spezielle Update-/Installationsroutine in ThemeWare® – Shopware 6 regelt dies automatisch.
Sollten die CMS-Blöcke bzw. CMS-Elemente nicht im Erlebniswelt-Editor erscheinen, leere bitte einmal den Shopware- sowie die Browser-Cache vollständig. Hilft dies nicht, deaktiviere (nicht deinstallieren!) ThemeWare® einmal und aktiviere es danach wieder.
Grundsätzlich werden die CMS-Blöcke bzw. CMS-Elemente beim Aktivieren von Themes hinzugefügt bzw. werden beim Deaktivieren wieder aus der Administration entfernt.
Bei Theme-Updates aktualisieren sich die CMS-Blöcke bzw. CMS-Elemente ggf. automatisch.
Das Deaktivieren von Themes entfernt lediglich die CMS-Blöcke bzw. CMS-Elemente aus der Erlebniswelt, aber nicht aus der Datenbank.
Die Deinstallation von Themes löscht derzeit keine Daten von CMS-Blöcken bzw. CMS-Elementen aus der Datenbank. Auch die Option "Alle App-Daten endgültig entfernen" hat derzeit keinen Einfluss.
Wichtig: CMS-Blöcke bzw. CMS-Elemente sollten vor dem "Deaktivieren" von ThemeWare® aus allen CMS-Seiten entfernt werden damit sie nicht "leer" in der Storefront dargestellt werden!

ThemeWare® Pro Edition
In the ThemeWare® Cloud Edition you will find the ThemeWare® CMS blocks in the default Shopware categories (see "Text & Images").
ThemeWare® Cloud Edition
The CMS blocks in Shopware 6 have different configuration fields. In the section "Layout", for example, you will find the option to add "CSS classes" and to define the padding of the block.
Block settings
In the block settings you also have the option of defining CSS classes for the corresponding CMS block. ThemeWare® offers you a number of CSS classes that you can use in your Shopping Experiences.
For all CMS blocks the following CSS classes are interesting:
You can find more classes in the following section "Tutorials" > "Shopping Experiences":
In addition, you can also use CSS classes: from Bootstrap, since the storefront in Shopware 6 is based on Bootstrap 5.
You can style a specific CMS block using CSS by assigning a custom CSS class in the block settings and defining the desired styles either in your stylesheet or within your theme configuration.
You can replace the CMS elements in most CMS blocks. You can learn more about this in the article CMS elements.

ThemeWare® "Image slide" konfigurieren
The configuration of the "Image slide" is quite self-explanatory. The image is a mandatory field. That's all you need to configure.
In the tab "General" you configure the content of the element.
Image
In the section "Image" you define the background image (1) of the slide. This is a mandatory field.
Link
In the section "Link" you define the target of the teaser when it is clicked.
In the tab "Layout" you can configure general settings and a coloured overlay.
General
In the section "General" you can configure the border radius (border-radius).
Colour overlay
In the section "Colour overlay" a colour overlay can be activated and configured.
Elements of the "Image slide"
In the tab "Responsive" you can optimise the representation for mobile viewports. Here you can configure the breakpoint for the image display mode.
Image
In the section "Image" you can configure the display mode of the image. With the breakpoint you can define when the display mode of the image should change (e.g. from 'cover' to 'contain'). In this way you can, for example, guarantee a minimum height in mobile viewports.
In the tab "Slide" you can configure the slide interval (display duration in milliseconds). Additionally, in the section "Scheduling" you can optionally set a start date and end date to display the slide only within a specific time period.
In the tab "SEO & Pagespeed" you can configure the "Lazy loading" of the image.
You can select each HTML element of our slides using the appropriate CSS classes. If you want to use your own CSS classes, you can insert them in the "Advanced" tab.
The image of the Hero slides is usually displayed in display mode 'contain' (1). It scales, while maintaining the aspect ratio, to the full width of the slide.
Since ThemeWare® 2.1 you have the option of defining yourself whether the display mode should change to 'cover' (2) and if so, from which viewport. In the display mode 'cover' you must also configure the minimum height (3) of the slide. This determines the height of the slide and the image fills the slide while maintaining its aspect ratio.

Modern design with boxed layout — electronics, tech and gadgets.
How the purchase works
Creating a variant is a one-time action
Creating a variant as a duplicate is a one-time step. Since Shopware currently only allows subscription models (no one-time purchases), the unlock works as a monthly subscription. Once you've created your variant, you can cancel the subscription in your Shopware account at any time — the duplicate stays in your shop.
Create a variant
Fresh, sporty green design — bike, e-bike and outdoor sport.
Playful, friendly design — toys, kids' fashion and baby products.
Classic, powerful design with boxed layout — international, wholesale, industrial.
Energetic design with bold accents — fitness, supplements, workout.
Nature-inspired, dark green design — plants, garden, natural products.
Hinweis: Ohne "vertikale" und "horizontale" Ausrichtung werden die ThemeWare® Teaser auf die volle Höhe gestreckt. Dadurch kannst du für einzelne Elemente in asymmetrischen Grids (z.B. "Grid 'One'") auch von der oben genannten Rechnung abweichen und musst nicht auf eine identische Höhe beider Spalten achten.
Wähle einen CMS-Block aus und ziehe diesen einfach per Drag’n’Drop in deine Erlebniswelt.
Hinweis: Spalten-Blöcke findest du in der Rubrik "ThemeWare® Spalten" [Pro] bzw. in der Rubrik "Text & Bild" [Cloud]
Die ThemeWare® Spalten-Blöcke sind mit Platzhalter-Elementen befüllt. Du kannst diese Elemente durch beliebige CMS-Elemente austauschen:
Klicke auf den entsprechenden CMS-Block (1) um den Bearbeitungsmodus zu aktivieren
Klicke auf das gewünschte Platzhalter-Element (2) um ein neues CMS-Element auszuwählen
Es öffnet sich das Pop-up "Element auswählen"
Du hast nun das CMS-Element ausgetauscht.
Aufgrund des fluiden Webdesigns von Shopware 6 gibt es keine "perfekte" oder "richtige" Bildgröße. Die Größe der einzelnen Elemente ist variabel und abhängig vom verfügbaren Platz den die Elemente haben. Der verfügbare Platz unterliegt diversen Faktoren wie dem konfigurierbaren Padding des Blocks, der konfigurierbaren Container-Breite, dem Darstellungsmodus der Erlebniswelt und natürlich durch die Fensterbreite selbst in verschiedenen Viewports bestimmt. Dadurch kann es nicht den einen Wert geben.
Wir empfehlen daher für Bild-Elemente in Spalten-Blöcken den Darstellungsmodus "Füllen". Dabei wird das Bild so skaliert und ggf. abgeschnitten, dass der Bild-Container immer vollständig ausgefüllt ist. Alternativ funktioniert auch der Darstellungsmodus "Strecken" recht gut, wenn alle Bilder einer Spalte die selbe Größe/Proportion haben.
In den Block-Einstellungen hast du die Möglichkeit CSS-Klasssen für den entsprechenden CMS-Block zu definieren.
Für die ThemeWare® Spalten-Blöcke sind folgende CSS-Klassen besonders interessant:

In this section of the documentation you will find all the ThemeWare® CMS elements that you can add to CMS blocks.
ThemeWare® provides you with an extensive and growing selection of CMS elements to customise your shop. The ThemeWare® CMS elements are available in the Pro Edition from version 0.5.0.
More elements are already in the pipeline and will follow soon. Be curious!
To be able to place a CMS element, you need a suitable CMS block in your Shopping Experience. You can then assign a CMS element to this CMS block. You can find out more about this in the section .
Data mapping
With data mapping you can dynamically populate fields of a CMS element with data from the current page entity (e.g. category). For example, a teaser on a category page automatically displays the category image and category name - without manual input.
Open the Shopping Experience of a category page in the CMS editor
Add a supported CMS element (e.g. a teaser)
Call-to-Action slide (Hero slider)

CMS element settings
Many CMS elements from ThemeWare® have a similar structure. They consist of different "layers".
The bottom layer is often the image or background image (1). A "Coloured overlay" (2) can often be placed on top of this. Another layer above this is the "Content overlay" (3). This is the actual content, i.e. the text or labelling of the element.
There are also similarities in the configuration of CMS elements. Below you will find settings that can be found in many CMS elements:
In many CMS elements, you will find the "SEO & Pagespeed" tab. Here you can define the HTML tag (p, h1, h2, ...) of headlines and use it to optimise the HTML hierarchy of your Shopping Experiences.
In the "Pagespeed" section, you have the option to configure "Lazy loading" for images.
eager – Instructs the browser to prioritise the loading of the image. This should be used for images "above the fold".
lazy – Instructs the browser not to load the image until the user scrolls to it. This should be used for images "below the fold".
Some CMS elements have an "Advanced Mode". This can be activated via a toggle in the element configuration and reveals additional configuration fields that are hidden in the standard mode.
Depending on the element, these may include:
Padding (inner spacing) of the element
Border radius of the element
In almost every CMS element you will find the "Advanced" tab. Here you can configure CSS classes and use expert settings.
You can select each HTML element in a CMS element using the appropriate CSS classes. However, if you want to use your own CSS classes, you can insert them in the "Advanced" tab.
In the section "CSS classes", you can add your own CSS classes to various components of a CMS element. Separate multiple CSS classes with a space (blank).
In some CMS elements, you will find the "Expert settings" section in the "Advanced" tab.
These settings are intended for experts who are very familiar with CMS blocks, CMS elements and the Bootstrap grid system!
You can style a specific CMS element individually by assigning it a custom CSS class in the element settings and defining the desired styles in your stylesheet or theme configuration.
Additionally, you can use the automatically generated element ID – especially for CMS elements where assigning a custom CSS class is not possible. This ID is included as a data-cms-element-id attribute in the HTML structure of the storefront:
To target this element via CSS, use an attribute selector like this:
If you want to configure an alternative language in a CMS element, you can simply change the language in the top right corner of the editor of the corresponding Shopping Experience.
Shopping Experience: Switch language

ThemeWare® CMS elements
Tip: If you have further ideas or wishes for existing or new blocks, please send us your suggestions for improvement via our Service Portal.
Important: CMS elements are unfortunately not currently possible in the Shopware Cloud! The ThemeWare® Cloud Edition therefore does not currently contain any CMS elements.

Tip: Make sure that all mandatory fields "*" are filled in, otherwise you will not be able to save the Shopping Experience. ThemeWare® shows you all mandatory fields with a small blue asterisk behind the field name.
Note: With Shopware 6.5, an HTML sanitizer has been implemented. This sanitizer improves security, reliability and usability of the editor by removing unsafe HTML code.
It also sanitizes styles and attributes for consistent and correct code rendering regardless of platform and browser. (see )

Further information
In the element configuration, click the "Data mapping" (1) button on the desired field
Select the desired entity property (2 – e.g. category.name for the category name)
Save the Shopping Experience
The field will now automatically be populated with data from the respective category on each category page.
If data has been assigned, a corresponding note (3) will be displayed in the element configuration instead of the configuration itself.
You can remove the assignment at any time by clicking the "Remove data mapping" button (4).
We’ve made data mapping available in as many CMS elements as possible. The only exceptions are elements that already need to be linked and where dynamic data mapping wouldn’t add any value.
There are also a few edge cases — for example teasers with buttons or banners that would generally be expected to link somewhere. In those cases, we’d like to leave a bit of room for your own judgment: not every element has to use data mapping if it simply doesn’t make sense in that particular situation.

Data mapping only works on pages with an assigned entity (e.g. category or product pages)
On static Shopping Experiences (e.g. landing pages) no entity is available - the fields remain empty
Fields with active data mapping cannot be manually populated at the same time
The "Data mapping" button is only visible when the Shopping Experience is assigned to a page type with an entity (e.g. category or product pages)
Important: This feature is only available in the ThemeWare® Pro Edition.

In addition to standard properties (e.g. product.name or category.media), you can also map ThemeWare® custom fields via data mapping. For example, you can use the short description instead of the standard product description.

Configuring the ThemeWare® "Call-to-Action slide"
The configuration of the "Call-to-Action slide" is quite self-explanatory. The image, the text and the button text are mandatory fields. That's all you really need to configure.
In the tab "General" you configure the content of the element.
Image
In the section "Image" you define the background image (1) of the slide. This is a mandatory field.
Content
In the section "Content" you can enter the teaser text (3), the headline (4), the text (5) and the button text (6) for the slide. The text and the button text are mandatory fields.
Link
In the section "Link" you define the target of the teaser when it is clicked.
In the tab "Layout" you can configure general settings, the overlay (2), the text (3, 4, 5) in the overlay, the button (6) and a coloured overlay.
General
In the section "General" you can configure the padding (inner spacing) and the border radius (border-radius).
Content
In the section "Content" you configure the text alignment and the text shadow.
Teaser
In the section "Teaser" you can configure the font and text colour for the teaser (3).
Headline
In the section "Headline" you can configure the font and text colour for the headline (4).
Text
In the section "Text" you can configure the font and text colour for the text (5).
Button
In the section "Button" you can configure the button style (the colour) and determine whether the button (6) should be filled or represented as an outline button.
Content overlay
In the section "Content overlay" you configure the overlay (2). Here you can configure the horizontal alignment and the vertical alignment of the overlay. You can also select a fade-in animation and set the width (e.g. 100%) and the maximum width (e.g. 50%) for the overlay. Additionally, you can configure the overlay sizing and select a backdrop effect (e.g. Blur).
With the configuration "Apply overlay styling" you can activate configuration fields for styling the overlay. Here you can set the background colour, select a box shadow and rounded corners.
Colour overlay
In the section "Colour overlay" a colour overlay can be activated and configured.
Elements of the "Call-to-Action slide"
In the tab "Responsive" you can optimise the representation for mobile viewports. Here you can configure breakpoints for the image display mode and the text overlay.
Image
In the section "Image" you can configure the display mode of the image. With the breakpoint you can define when the display mode of the image should change (e.g. from 'cover' to 'contain'). In this way you can, for example, guarantee a minimum height in mobile viewports.
Text
In the section "Text" the breakpoint for the text can be configured. From this breakpoint on, the text overlays the image. Additionally, you can configure a background colour for the text area, which is displayed when the text is shown below the image.
In the tab "Slide" you can configure the slide interval (display duration in milliseconds). Additionally, in the section "Scheduling" you can optionally set a start date and end date to display the slide only within a specific time period.
In the tab "SEO & Pagespeed" you can configure the HTML tag for the headline and the "Lazy loading" of the image.
You can select each HTML element of our slides using the appropriate CSS classes. If you want to use your own CSS classes, you can insert them in the "Advanced" tab.
The image of the Hero slides is usually displayed in display mode 'contain' (1). It scales, while maintaining the aspect ratio, to the full width of the slide.
Since ThemeWare® 2.1 you have the option of defining yourself whether the display mode should change to 'cover' (2) and if so, from which viewport. In the display mode 'cover' you must also configure the minimum height (3) of the slide. This determines the height of the slide and the image fills the slide while maintaining its aspect ratio. If necessary, the image is cropped (4) to fit.
Disply mode 'contain'
Disply mode 'cover'
Disply mode 'cover' in detail
The text in the Hero slides usually overlays the image. In smaller viewports, this may no longer fit perfectly, especially with long texts, so the text is displayed below the image on mobile devices.
Since ThemeWare® 2.1 you have the option to define yourself whether the text should be displayed on top of the image, and if so, from which viewport.
