Hello guys, I’m trying to activate the Figma Education plan but I’m stuck:  Attempting to verify shows “Verification Limit Exceeded.” I reached out to SheerID, and they responded they were unable to process my request and that the ticket is permanently closed. So I can’t retry from their side.  I also tried to email Figma education team but still got no response at this point.  Thank you so much

Hi,  Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere - couldnt find it.  I’ve made a Figma Site in my Professional account. I now need to transfer this Figma Site over to their Professional account so they can edit, add cms entries, publish etc from their account.  This is relatively straightforward in webflow - but i’m struggling to see how to do it in Figma. Surely its possible?? note: I appreciate I can download the fig file and send, but it wont include the CMS collections. Surely theres a way of transfering the Figma Site and its CMS collections to a different user account? 

I need a template that shows the date, company name, contact name, phone #, email , address, notes   

Hey, Figma Community!Recently I had to update my button and add icons on both sides. It had only left icon before and we already used it in our designs in many places, not long ago I was in need for button with icon on right, so I decided to update my initial component, which led to losing most of the defined icons, they returned to placeholder icon in the component. Could someone help, what could be a reason and how to avoid it in the future?button propertiesreset icon in the buttonIt happened to all button with l

After adding Figma MCP in Cursor, a 429 error is returned when reading the design draft

I only purchased ONE (1) license and nothing more! I was charged for two, and I did not request any additional licenses, nothing more, I ONLY PURCHASED A SINGLE LICENSE FOR US$5, How can you simply charge me 5X more than what I purchased?

We have these icon colors set up for different button types.  But when I switch the size of the button(XS, S, M, L), these icon colors are retaining for the two of the sizes but for the other two sizes the colors are not retaining for the icons.

Hi fellow Figma users, I have registered and am a student of an ongoing bootcamp. While every one of the students has full access to the bootcamp Figma files, my access keeps getting changed into view only. The admin of the bootcamp has been in touch with Figma multiple times and they approved my account, but I still get the same problem, and the issue has not been resolved. We are half through the bootcamp, and I only had full editing access for the first week. This is very frustrating, and I cannot participate in any of the group activities. I also have no way of contacting Figma directly to solve the issue with their assistance. has anyone experienced similar issues? @dvaliao @Celine_Figma

🚀 Exploring the Best Prompts for Figma Make Lately, I’ve been experimenting with Figma Make to streamline the design-to-code workflow. While it’s an exciting tool, I’ve noticed that prompts play a huge role in getting meaningful and usable outputs. I’ve tried several approaches, but sometimes I still get “stuck” with prompts that Figma Make doesn’t fully understand. That’s why I’d love to hear from the community about the best practices you’ve discovered. One of the challenges I’m facing is figuring out whether it’s possible to create prompts that help split files in Figma Make. At the moment, most of the code tends to merge into a single apps.tsx file, which makes it harder to manage. I’m curious if anyone has found prompt strategies that encourage better file structuring. I also wonder if there’s a particular prompt format that works best in Figma Make. Sometimes it feels like the output changes

I’m working in Figma Slides (Drafts), not a regular Page.I have an image applied as an Image Fill on a rectangle inside a slide.I want to place another rectangle (overlay) on top of that image, but when I use Bring to front, nothing changes.Since Slides mode does not show a full layer panel, I can’t tell which parent frame the shapes are in, or how to move the overlay into the same hierarchy as the image.I’m not trying to layer across slides — only within the same slide.What is the correct way to overlay a shape on top of an image in Figma Slides when layer structure is hidden?

Dear Support,I have a question about adding interactions in a component. I added interactions to one variant, but it is not set as the default in the design. When I display this variant in the prototype, the added interaction does not appear. Is that normal?Please refer to the attached gif.  Thanks.Mia

Hi everyone, I’m new to Figma and exploring its features for design and collaboration. I’d love to know what resources, tips, or best practices you recommend for beginners to quickly get comfortable with the platform. Also, what plugins or workflows do you find most helpful for improving efficiency when working on projects, especially in team environments? Any advice or experiences would be really valuable for me and other newcomers.

Hi,I have configured the Figma MCP setup in my VSCode and tried to get the annotations data for a figma screen. The screen has many annotated components and I did code connect for the components as well. No matter which ever prompt I try, I’m not getting the annotated values. The prompts run get_metadata and get_code of the MCP server but still I get no desired resultsSee the below figma screen  ScreenWhat should be the correct prompt or way I can extract all the annotations for the figma screen url and store it in a file?

This is just a bug report (if this belongs somewhere else happy to submit this there) The Mobile Product Review Slides template uses Whyte as the title font but that’s unavailable for most users. I’ve been using IBM Plex Serif as a replacement, but anyway, worth changing so users don’t run into this bug in the future.

Hi,Before figma release import/export variables feature, I often use Design Token manager plugin to work with my variables. Today, I can't import json back to figma because the format is different, instead I use figma native feature, which is so so much problematic. If I have 2 ways alias, it require the alias collection already imported in the app, therefore my variables is broken (not completed)If i have outside figma system variables, I can’t import too. Figma trying to lock user in it’s own system, and feature is half baked release.Anyone try different methods/ plugins so you can import your into figma?

I’ve noticed uncomfortable lags when I share my screen via MS Teams and present something in Figma Desktop. It feels like fps drops drastically - from 60 to around 15-20. Mouse hover feedbacks with a noticeable delay. These lags I started notice after updating to macOS Sequoia. My setup: Macbook Pro 2021 M1 Pro with 32GB RAM, macOS Sequoia 15.0 External monitor HP Z27 connected via usb-c thunderbolt Figma Desktop 124.4.7 MS Teams for mac Version 24244.507.3125.3475 I started investigating to identify the root cause and so far I figured out the next: The issue is only with Figma Desktop and MS Teams mac app. If I use Figma in browser or MS Teams in browser, everything is smooth. The issue is more noticeable with UI3. When I switch back to previous UI, it works much smoother, however not perfect and smooth as without sharing. When I share the internal Macbook screen the issue is less to not not
