Hello! I’m about to send my first Figma plugin for approval, and wanted to check a couple of things before I do.Data security questions: I’d like to complete this, but the answers are likely to change as I develop the plugin further. Can I change these answers after the plugin has been published?Author: Likewise, I’m happy to share the plugin with myself as the author for now, but may want to change to a team in future. Is this possible?

I’m unable to add text to my design at all, not even by copy-pasting. When I select the “T” option, only a  box appears.Can someone help me with this issue? 

I can no longer use the email address I used for my Figma account. When I try to log in, it asks me to enter a code sent to my email, so I cannot log in at all. What should I do?

I’ve been researching how writers build their online presence and realized how important a well-designed website is for connecting with readers. It made me curious about what others think works best in author website development and what features really matter. Have you worked with any author website designers who created clean, useful, and reader-friendly sites? I’d really appreciate honest suggestions or experiences on choosing the right design approach.

We manage several email templates for monthly campaigns, each built with a set number of components. While not every email uses every component, we only remove existing sections as needed—we don’t add new ones.Can Buzz support this kind of workflow? Specifically, can components be toggled on or off within Buzz so unused sections are removed and the overall email layout automatically adjusts? ThanksJ

If i purchase monthly professional plan in figma, will i will be able to use it’s AI credit to integrate with Claude without having any paid plan of Claude? 

Hello Figma Support,I designed a multi-page article/publication in Figma Make, and I am trying to export it as either a PNG or PDF.I am having trouble finding clear export options in either Figma Make or Figma Design, and I am not sure whether direct PNG/PDF export is supported from Figma Make.Can you please confirm:Is it possible to export a Figma Make design directly as a PNG or PDF? If not, what is the correct workflow for moving a Figma Make design into Figma Design for export? Does “Copy design” from Figma Make to Figma Design preserve the layout well enough for PDF/PNG export? Are there known export issues with Figma Make-generated files, including OKLCH color errors? What is the recommended process for exporting a multi-page article/publication created in Figma Make?For context, the design is intended to become a polished PDF publication and/or individual PNG page exports. I need each page exported cleanly without layout shifts, cropped text, or missing visual elements.Thank you

Hi guys, just checking in to see whats the status of the plugin which I submitted for review on March 2nd. May I know how long more its going to take? thank you so much. Best,Ashok

 I submitted my Figma plugin for review a little over 2 weeks ago, and it's still in the "In Review" state without any updates so far.I’ve seen some mentions that reviews can take longer recently due to backlog, but I wanted to check with others here: Is 2–3+ weeks currently considered normal? How long did your plugin approval take recently? Did anyone experience delays longer than this? Also, if there’s anything I should do while waiting (e.g., resubmitting after improvements), I’d really appreciate any advice.Thanks in advance 🙏  

Been using Fig Stats lately, but I feel it’s still hard to track my own plugin performance properly.Main issue for me:It mostly focuses on public/hot plugins My own plugin data feels incomplete Weekly Figma analytics emails are hard to compare over time No clear trends/history/insightsSo I’m thinking about building a small tool that:Connects to Gmail Automatically reads Figma weekly analytics emails Builds historical charts Tracks installs/runs/retention over time Gives simple AI insights/trend analysisSomething like:“your installs dropped because ranking/search exposure changed”Would any Figma plugin developers actually use this?Curious if this is just my pain point or a real problem for others too.

Hello! I just tried the FREE version today, and spent over 30 minutes with Chat Support to no avail, with trying to help me figure out why I’m unable to save my image. The only options were Make, Web Page, or HTML. Finally ended submitting a Bug Report, after she asked me to upload an image that was already uploaded. I’m a content creator, and most recently built a website, and plan to build more, but I cannot afford to have my time wasted. I was considering upgrading, if I liked it, but so far, I’m not impressed.

Hi - i have a beautiful report I put together using Figma Make. Is there a way to get it to be exportable to PDF or at least print? If so, how?

We are currently experiencing a critical issue accessing our Figma team account. The login email address is hosted on servers inside Iran, and due to ongoing internet disruptions, Figma is unable to deliver the verification/login codes to this email address.As a result:We cannot log in to our account We are unable to renew our premium subscription We currently have no access to our design filesThis issue is severely impacting our work.Is it possible to transferring account access and team admin ownership to another member of our team who previously had editor-level access.

Been using this button like my life depends on it, and now I can’t find it! #help

I'm relatively new to Figma, and I look for the best way to do this: A button has states like checked/unchecked (an option in a filtering bar of a web shop or "add to favorites" button that changes from only stroke to a filled shape and back) and also has a hover effect that changes its shade, and when you switch its state (by clicking/pressing it), hover remains there until you move away the cursor, seamlessly, without that blink/flicker when it turns into the default version of new state and only then to a hovered one.So the full cycle (of pressing it twice) is "1 → 1 hover → 2 hover → 2 → 2 hover → 1 hover → 1".But it's on PCs/laptops. On phones/tablets, the hover is shown while you touch the button, and after removing your finger, it goes straight to a new state without hover.Full cycle: "1 → 1 hover → 2 → 2 hover → 1". I want it to take as few components as possible. I tried something, but "on click" and "mouse up" interactions (for the states) leading to different variants of a c

Hi Team and thanks to help me, Its been 30+ days since i have submitted my plugin. Here’s plugin link: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1621668864771438060Could you help me with the approval as soon as possible?Thank you so much 🙏🏼

Hey everyone, I’m struggling with instance swapping for icons. In my icon library, I have 2–3 color variations and 2–3 size variations for the same icon, and it’s a pretty large library. I’ve already corrected the naming and layers according to best practices and expected the swap to work, but the icon button color still doesn’t stay preserved when I change variations. Has anyone faced this issue before? Any ideas on how to solve it?Also, I’d really appreciate if someone could share an example of how to structure naming conventions when managing multiple icon sizes and color variations. Thanks in advance!

Здравствуйте! В браузерной версии не запускаются плагины. Помогите пожалуйста с решением проблемы.[Moderator note — English translation: “Hello! Plugins aren't running in the browser version. Please help me solve this problem.”]

Problem: When I apply the Underline decoration formatting to text that includes a superscripted ‘registered trademark’ symbol (this is a non negotiable inclusion), the underline hugs the baseline of the superscript part, so visually the line breaks between the non-superscripted characters. Font being used is Arial for accessibility reasons so it cannot be changed.I have seen other users posting this issue as far back as 2024 and there has clearly been no fix other than the suggestion to change fonts which is not possible. Arial is such a universally used system font I can’t understand why this is even an issue to begin with.Below is an illustrated breakdown of the issue: Desired effect... ...and what I get in Figma. 

Hi Figma team,I submitted my plugin Slotify for review over a month ago, and it’s still showing as “In Review” with no updates so far.I completely understand that review timelines can vary depending on volume, but the lack of any communication makes it hard to know whether things are progressing normally or if something is stuck.I also tried reaching out via support, but haven’t been able to get clarity on the status.Could someone please help with:Confirming if Slotify is still in the active review queue Let me know if there’s anything pending or required from my side Sharing an approximate timeline or best way to follow upPlugin name: SlotifyCategory: Software Development / Design SystemsHappy to provide any additional details if needed.Thanks for your time and for reviewing submissions—just want to make sure this hasn’t slipped through the cracks. Best,Nikhil

Hi, we were setting up our color variables for light and dark mode and noticed that the preview of the colors in dark mode do not represent the actual value behind it. Anyone has any idea why this happens and how to fix it?  A little backstory, we have set up core, base and applied tokens in the variables window. The base level is where we set up theming. However, in our applied level we sometimes overwrite a color for a specific token in dark mode. However, when we do this, the preview seems to show the colors as presented in light mode instead of dark mode. When we actually apply the token, it all works properly, it is just the preview in the variables window that shows the wrong color.

Hey Figma community!I’m a clothing designer, and I’m trying to create a portfolio website, but I don’t know much about coding or Figma’s coding features.I used Figma Make to generate a webpage that includes secondary and third-level menus. Then I tried using a Chrome extension to convert the Figma Make page into an actual website, but it only captured the first page.Is there any way to include all the submenus when converting or exporting the page?What I really want to do is add images to different blocks on the page, but the Figma Make agent hasn’t been able to do it correctly so far.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

After purchasing a 1-month Professional full membership, my usage was exhausted within one day, and it was supposed to renew after one month. To prevent renewal, I downgraded my membership to the Starter (free) plan. However, yesterday the 1-month fee was charged to my card again, while my account still shows as a free membership. Additionally, since I am on the free plan, I no longer have access to the admin/billing page, so I cannot manage permissions or settings. What should I do?

Hi Figma team,I submitted my plugin "LoopLab — Animate Selection" for review about 19 days ago and haven't received any feedback yet — no approval, rejection, or requests for changes.Plugin details:- Name: LoopLab — Animate Selection- Plugin ID: 1623902564214223817- Link: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1623902564214223817- Category: Editing & effects- Submitted by: Laraib Office- Support email: [Removed PII - Adam 2026-04-30]The plugin is a loop animation studio that lets users select Figma frames and create scrolling banners, text tickers, and animated slideshows with transitions — then export as GIF or PNG.
