I have successfully published my Figma Make before, but I went bananas and created a whole app in figma make. After 400 iterations, my project size is probably pretty large. Whenever I try to publish, it thinks for a long while before its saying that it has failed. I’ve also tried to look through other threads here to see what the common issues are but to no avail. To some extent ive tried to optimize the files using prompts, but sometimes it just destroys my app completely and I have to revert. Any ideas?

I was working on my scholarship application for Config, and I wanted to go through all the pages to see what other questions/prompts I had to answer in the future pages. I put in default responses like “This is a test.” so that I could bypass the required fields. I did not realize that after the page that asks you about potential allergies is the last page of the application. The “next” button turned into “submitting.” I have been searching all weekend to find who to contact through the forums and “chat with Fig” and none of these resources have helped me. I know the application closed on Jan 31 and I’m a worried that I will be overlooked.Who can I contact to update my responses?I finished all my responses ahead of time, and made a genuine mistake. I was really looking forward to attending Config and having the opportunity to afford meeting this community of folks that are creators.

Hello community , I am not able to see the new features and the new UI in Figma Make. This is the release note which was on 22nd Jan which announced the features.https://www.figma.com/release-notes/?title=more-new-features-in-figma-make. So I would assume it's high time I should start seeing it too. I have tried restarting, re-logging, etc but still can't see the new UI. Is any one experiencing this as well?  

Recently I wanted to try out the Figma Material Theme Builder plugin but after a short test run decided not to use it. However it created into the colour library a bunch of default colours under the group “Schemes” that I can’t get rid of. I’ve uninstalled the plugin and manually removed from the right design panel the colours, but they still come up in the library. I haven’t used the colours anywhere.Anybody knows how to get rid of these colours?   

I have designed a mobile app in Figma using Make. How can I publish it on the App Store?

Hi folks! I used some components from other files in my project, and even though I removed them, I still see some Variables available in the “Page → Modes”. They are not available anywhere else. It doesn’t affect the project; when I select one, change the page, and then return to it, that mode is selected. I checked my file, and nothing leads to the other file anymore – no styles, variables, components, etc. It seems like a bug, and I see some variables pulled from another file, but can I remove it somehow?

Hello Figma Community / Support Team,I’ve been trying to apply for the Figma student plan for over 6 months, but I’m still blocked by a “Verification Limit Exceeded” error.I’ve seen many similar topics in the community (unable to verify student status, Education Verification Failed, etc.), but none have received an answer or solution. The situation seems to create a loop with no resolution:SheerID confirms that my student verification is approved but tells me to contact Figma Education. On the Figma forum, I am told to contact SheerID and Figma Education did not respond to me yet.This leaves students like me stuck indefinitely.Verification details by SheerID :Verified email: -------------------------------------- Request ID: 68d69e7bd0a9b854fa9315f1 Date verified: September 26, 2025

We’re currently on the Professional plan and are considering upgrading to the Enterprise plan, mainly to use Extended Collections and Branching.Before making the switch, I’d love to hear from teams who are already using these features: Do Extended Collections work well for large-scale design systems, especially when managing white-label versions of the same product? Are there any limitations or best practices when using them at scale? With Branching, is it possible to sync screens from a branch directly to Zeplin for developer handoff, or does the sync only work from the main branch? Any insights or real-world experiences would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

I am noticing more and more Figma libraries lately popping up. Think about https://www.flowbase.co/, https://figmacomponents.com/ I am currently figuring out how they do section X inside a copy to clipboard button but I am not coming to an end, after googling for hours, I can’t find anything about this.Is there someone how this exactly works?Would love to know that!

as title, I’m trying to use my published library in a Figma Make project, but the export for Figma Make dialog does not pop up. Also when I click Import From Figma in Make, it does nothing. Tried closing the app and reopen but still the same. I’m on a pro education plan. Is this feature available for me? thank you

Hey guys, we are currently trying to set up a better workflow in our web agency when it comes to templating and library management. Instead of rebuilding sections, components and styles every time, we’d like to start from a template that evolves with us over time. So no “snapshot” like we would get, when just duplicating the current state of our template before starting a fresh client project but rather a “living” library that we can add new things to while all client projects (including the ones in the past) can still make use of the assets added way after the creation of the file. So essentially a “master library”. What we want to achieve is this:A singular master library that holds all kinds of sections & components that we can continuously expand. In each client project file we would then import the master library and overwrite the standard set of variables and styles to the client’s set of colors, fonts and brand specifics

Me and my friend wants to collaborate on a project using Figma. We both have verified edu plans, but when I invite him I get the message saying “An admin needs to update this seat so they can edit.” Naturally, I went ahead and made him into the team’s admin, which did not solve our problem at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I’m evaluating Figma Make as a production website builder and want to understand how far SEO can be optimised without exporting to another framework.Specifically, I’m looking for real-world guidance on:• How Figma Make outputs semantic HTML (headings, sections, nav, main, footer) and how much control designers have over this• Best practices to ensure search engines correctly index text, headings, and page structure created in Make• Ways to manage SEO essentials such as page titles, meta descriptions, canonical URLs, and Open Graph tags directly within Make or during deployment• Handling SEO for long-form or content-heavy pages (service pages, blogs, FAQs) built entirely in Make• Performance and Core Web Vitals considerations with Make-generated sites• Known SEO limitations and recommended workarounds when using Make at scaleIf you’ve launched SEO-focused or marketing-driven websites

Hi there, I am a designer helping maintain a large design system used mostly for an ecommerce site. The Figma libraries were built almost 4 years ago now so there are some new features we're discussing leveraging, especially using variables to make the library components fully responsive (right now we have a separate desktop and mobile version of each component.) Has anyone made this transition before? It will involve a lot of legwork so I want to approach this carefully, would love to hear from others who have managed a similar large-scale update.

I have an image that I want to hide by initially but show when a certain unrelated/attached element is hovered over (mouse enter). This works when I setup a boolean variable (“isVisible”) and attach it to the relevant asset (right clicking the eye icon). Then setting up a variable interaction of “Target: isVisible” then if false set to true. The image does show, so it works. But it’s an abrupt/instant jump into view. Is there any way to make this type of interaction gracefully fade into view instead?Thanks in advance!

Hi there, I have a seamless scrolling marquee component which works great - smart animating between 2 instances using delay so it appears as a loop. I’ve put this component within another component, which ‘on click’ cycles through instances until it opens and displays content. The problem is when you click and trigger the parent component state changes, the nested marquee jumps back to the start. This makes sense as it the state of the marquee doesn’t match when they change - but has anyone found a way to avoid this? Or is there no way? The only way I can think of is to make the marquee a looping video asset and then when the state changes on the parent the position of the video will match (I think). Thanks in advance!

Hi Figma team & community, I’m managing a design system and I wish to make a massive update to make it lighter to improve performances on our design files.With variables and components variants, there are infinite possibilities on how to create components. The outcome components will likely be a mixed between variables and component variants, but when I can prioritize one versus the other, I would like to know what will improve performance based on how Figma is structurally built?   Performance rumours:— One one hand, I’ve heard that pasting a component instance in a file brings all its variants with it. So having 2 instances of a component with 8 variants, would equal having it 16 times in our file, which increase its weight. — On another hand, I’ve had very complex and massive prototypes in the past, and at some point when I was having many many variables, it started to crash and not render/take

I was pretty impressed with Figma Make. I used 2300 credits on a project.Today I booted it up (same project) and the quality completely dropped off. The work has been unusable.Even simple things like the AI saying they added an SVG to a background of a section. It doesn’t show up, asked it to add it, or change opacity, or change size, and it goes through reasoning, says it’s fixed, and it still doesn’t show up.Other things like using the wrong color palette, even after being told to refocus the design on the color palette.Most things are coming out as cookie-cutter template style generic designs now.Is today a bad day for the AI or some bug behind the scenes? Is it because of the credit limit? If it’s a credit limit situation, why can’t I just purchase more capacity? I shouldn’t have to wait a month to have consistent work produced by the tool.If I can’t purchase more capacity is there any other work arou

When evaluating hardware upgrades, selecting the right memory is critical for performance and stability. Professionals recommend checking compatibility with your motherboard, supported speeds, and warranty terms before making a decision. In many enterprise and custom-build scenarios, teams prefer to buy memory modules from certified vendors to ensure consistent quality and long-term support. Always review benchmarks, user feedback, and manufacturer documentation to avoid mismatches and ensure optimal system efficiency over time.

I have a Design system file with a component Accordion. As you can see in the video linked below, it has 2 states: open and closed, and inside it has a placeholder component for content. The idea is to replace placeholder with real content when needed.Now I want to use this component in another file, so I replace placeholder with “real content”. When I play it tho, my real content is replaced with original placeholder - and that’s not what I want. BUT, when I start with its state OPEN, then it works as expected. How do I solve this?Here is a video I recorded if that helps visualize it 

how can I escalate a ticket that was opened for over 48 hours?

The error message above prompt says : Files that are too largelarge files break figma make but i have deleted some of those files and it still stock on same message 

With the introduction of AI-powered features in Figma—such as First Draft, AI-generated layouts, content suggestions, and smarter search—design workflows are starting to shift in noticeable ways. Tasks that once took hours, like wireframing, copy placeholders, or early ideation, can now be jump-started in minutes.I’m curious how designers and teams are actually using these AI tools in real projects. Which AI features in Figma have you found genuinely useful so far? Have they helped speed up early ideation, improve consistency, or reduce repetitive work? How do you balance AI-generated output with your own creative judgment? Are there moments where AI feels more like a limitation than a help? It would also be great to hear how AI is impacting collaboration between designers, product managers, and developers. Is it improving handoffs and alignment, or introducing new challenges?Whether
