do you have a renamed chest in your world rn

come to that renamed chest, do data get block <cords of renamed chest> and show the result here

[grizzled smelt]

0, 60, 0 has the following block data: {CustomName:'{"text":"Variety Chest","color":"blue"}', x: 0, y: 60, Items: [], z: 0, id:"minecraft:chest"}

[grizzled smelt]

data sent ...

[prime python]

uh

isn't the issue the fact that 1.21 uses components and not NBT?

wait

I'm dumb lol

I thought this was an item

what exactly are you trying to detect?

[grizzled smelt]

renamed Chest

[prime python]

so you just want to know if the chest has a custom name?

[grizzled smelt]

I wand to detect a Renamed chest at a coordinate and run the command

execute if block ~ ~ ~ chest{CustomName:'{"text":"Name"}'} run

[prime python]

did this work before in earlier versions?

[grizzled smelt]

this works in previous version but not now

[prime python]

isn't your custom name "Variety Chest"?

[grizzled smelt]

yes it is

[prime python]

so try replicaing the "Name" over here with "Variety Chest"

[native tangle]

yeah so you just do if block {CustomName:'{"text":"Variety Chest","color":"blue"}'}

and it should work

yk

[prime python]

wait

are you trying to check if the block has any custom name?

or specifically the custom name "Variety Chest"?

[grizzled smelt]

/execute if block 2 58 2 chest{CustomName:'{"text":"TEXT"}'}

Not work

[prime python]

the block is at 0, 60, 0, right?

[grizzled smelt]

I texted on other cordinatet

[prime python]

and the chest's custom name is "TEXT"?

[grizzled smelt]

THX It worked

[prime python]

that's literally what I said

[grizzled smelt]

Ok Ok My skill Issue.. 😂

Just to clarify here, the reason it wasn't working was because the actual chest's name had a blue colour, and so detecting for the name without a colour wouldn't properly detect it. Keep that in mind for the future, in case you change the colour or anything like that
