Hi, My lecturer has tried and contacted Figma about this problem a few times now, but nothing has helped.I needed to re-verify my student account for my education plan, but no matter what kind of proof I supplied it kept getting denied.Can someone from Figma support contact me about this and help me out? Thanks

My Figma Education Plan was renewed in September , and everything was working normally. However, today my plan suddenly changed to the Free plan even though the renewal date has not ended yet.i have contacted sheer id they said contact Figma so here I am.What do I do ?

Hi everyone,I’m looking for advice on the best way to slim down a large Figma project and create a smaller, more focused design system.I have a Figma file that’s grown quite bloated over time. Ideally, I’d like to: Strip out a subset of master components Keep only the relevant text variables and styles Create a “mini” design system library containing just those components and variables/styles Publish that library Then copy/paste the layouts for the latest build into a fresh Figma file and relink them to this new, lighter library My main questions: Is this actually possible to do cleanly in Figma? What’s the best or least painful workflow to achieve this without breaking too many links? Are there any gotchas with variables, styles, or component refere

Hi,I am a student at an Australian university. My attempt to verify as a student with Sheer ID for the FIgma Education Plan failed multiple times. I then emailed Sheer ID support staff asking for assistan. They replied they cannot help me further. How can I solve this issue and verify as a student?Thanks,Mel

Hi guys, I subscribed to figma not because I just wanted to use Figma Make. I thought the AI worked for designs as well, just like https:sleek.design, but unfortunately for me, what is made, can’t be edited on Figma Design. How do I cancel this subscribtion. It’s been taking almost £22 from my account monthly - no matter what I do.Many thanks.Abe

I want to downgrade from education to starter plan. I don’t see any options.

hey, after the latest update of the right menu, where it used to be device selecting to present prototype, I can't change the peresenting device to desktop, even if I'm trying to present 1920*1080 frame.

I work at NSFW Coders, and currently, I’m developing a Candy AI Clone API that focuses on enhancing image generation features through adaptive AI models. The main objective is to combine conversational understanding with text-to-image generation to create a more natural and personalized experience.During the process, I’ve been experimenting with different diffusion models and prompt optimization techniques to improve image accuracy and reduce response time. We’re also exploring how contextual dialogue history can influence image outputs for more human-like consistency.I’d like to hear from other developers working on similar AI systems — which frameworks or optimization tricks have helped you improve efficiency and realism in image generation?

We have these two variations to support hover interactions. When the text is changed while using this component upon changing to the hover variant the underline text styling is not getting applied. Also, Figma stopped supporting changing the text styling on the linked text labels. This has become very painful for us in alot of our components text properties were linked to keep it the same across various variants but their styling were changing which now can’t happen.Is this a bug..? 

Where is absolute position option is there in Figma in latest version? is the name changed as “ignore auto layout”?

Hey everyone!Our team has built a multi-brand design system that supports three different brand themes, each with both light and dark modes.All our icons are created as unions. This helps preserve the color override when an icon is swapped inside a component. For example: all icons use the “icon” color variable by default, but within a success inline message component, the icon is overridden with the “icon-success” color variable (green), as the icon should always be green in that context. Swapping, say, a checkmark icon with “icon-success” applied for a shield icon retains the correct “icon-success” variable. So far, so good.However, when we re-theme the inline message component from Brand 1 to Brand 2, the icon switches to a different brand-specific variant from the icon component set. Here’s where things break: in component instances, the color override (“icon-success”) is lost during this brand switch, and the icon falls back to the default “icon” c

If I hide a banner (by clicking on the cross), how can I get it back? :) 

Hey everyone,I’m currently on the Figma Education (Educator/Student) plan, and my account is already verified.I want to change the email address on this same Figma account (from an edu email to a personal Gmail).My concern is:Will changing the email revoke my education status? Has anyone successfully changed their email without losing the edu plan? If it does get revoked, did Figma support help re-verify or transfer the status?I’ve seen mixed answers online, and I don’t want to risk losing access accidentally 😅Any real experiences or advice would be super helpful. Thanks in advance! 

I canceled my subscription one month ago. This is confirmed by Figmas UI showing me that I'm on the Free plan. Nevertheless I had a charge of 5,95€ on my credit card today. What is happening here and why even 5,95€ i was on the 17,85€ plan before.

Hi everyone,Has anyone else encountered problems with long blank text copy paste? Sometimes copying large blocks of empty space from documents or webpages seems harmless, but pasting them into forums, chats, or editors can cause issues.It can take up unexpected space, slow down scrolling, or even crash certain apps. I’ve tried stripping formatting or using plain text tools, yet long blank text copy paste still creates headaches with very large blanks. Curious if others have a reliable method to handle it without manually deleting hundreds of empty lines.

I want to prototype interactive chart components (hover states, filters, time ranges) for a statistics site. What are good practices in Figma for simulating interactivity like this without code?

I am not able to rotate gradients when I add the swatches from the Variables, however if they are not linked to the variables there’s no issue.

I’m unable to publish changes to my library. I keep getting a message to reload the page to publish. After reloading, there’s a record that a component was indeed published; but there’s no updates available or any changes on the Figma files where I’m using this library. Any idea what I’m missing or is there an issue?

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is doing good. Just used Figma make which is awsme. Do any one have idea about the limitation in Figma make prompt. Number of usage. 

Hello Figma Team,I am trying to embed a Figma Make design into an external website using an iframe, with a URL like:https://www.figma.com/make/xxx/yyy?node-id=0-1&t=zzz-1. However, the iframe does not seem to load, likely due to Content Security Policy (CSP) restrictions.I have confirmed that Figma Photo (Prototype) can be embedded using the same method without any issues, for example:https://www.figma.com/proto/xxx/yyy?node-id=2-1&starting-point-node-id=2%3B1I have been using the following embed format:https://www.figma.com/embed?embed_host=share&url=${encodeURIComponent(originalUrl)}Could you please let me know if there is any way to embed Figma Make designs via iframe, or if there is an official workaround or recommended approach for displaying Make designs externally?Thank you very much for your support.

Hello,One of my colleagues creates mockups in Figma. She has a company email address (mail@company.com) and shared the file link with me.When I click the link, I request access. I receive an email confirming that my access request has been approved, and I can then navigate the mockup without any issue.However, sometimes, suddenly, I receive a red notification in Figma saying something like “You don’t have access to this file”, and I am forced to request access again.I don’t know which Figma subscription plan we are on (if any), so I’m wondering if this behavior could be related to plan or permission limitations.Thank you for your help,Best regards.

Hi Figma Community! 👋I'm a graphic designer learning UX/UI design. I posted here before about responsiveness, and I've been studying and practicing. Now I created a new desktop wireframe and I'd like to know if I'm doing it right before I continue with the full design.I want to check three things: Is my wireframe responsive and will it work on desktop, tablet, and mobile? Am I following Figma 2025 best practices? Will it translate well when I build it in WordPress with Elementor?Can you give me feedback on these specific things? Does my wireframe follow Figma 2025 standards?I want to make sure my foundation is solid so my work translates well when I build it. Any feedback would help me improve. I'm ready to apply what you suggest.I've linked my Figma file below.Figma DesktopThank
