Hey everyone I wanted to share my workflow for designing SEO-optimized landing pages in Figma, something I’ve been refining while working with clients here in Nepal.A lot of designers focus purely on visuals, but I’ve learned that small design decisions can directly impact rankings, page speed, and conversions.Here’s a simplified version of my process:1. Start with search intent (not design)Before opening Figma, I map out: Target keywords User intent (what they actually want) Competitor page structure This helps me design pages that match what users are searching for, not just what looks good.2. Structure comes firstInside Figma, I focus on layout hierarchy: Clear H1 section (above the fold) Logical content flow (H2, H3 sections) Scannable layout (short sections, spacing, visual breaks) Basically, making it easy for both users and search engines to understand.3. Design for speedI try to avoid: Heavy images Unnecessary animations Overcomplicated components Instead, I design

Hi Figma Community Support,I submitted support ticket #2137650 regarding the Figma Agent beta monthly usage limit on my Professional plan. The Agent is currently blocked in the middle of an active professional UI/UX project.I haven’t received any email or update yet. I understand the Support team may be experiencing higher-than-usual volume, but this is currently blocking an important production workflow.Could someone please confirm that the ticket is correctly assigned and, if possible, add an internal follow-up note so the Support team can review it?Thank you.

Hey everyone! I know Figma Make has an official Supabase integration for this. My question: is there any native way to make user interactions (edits, additions, etc.) on a published app persist and be visible to every visitor — like a shared database, not just local/per-user storage  without connecting an external service like Supabase or Firebase?Is this possible today within Figma Make, or is an external backend the only way to get shared/multi-user persistence? Thanks!

Hi, is the rollout for the feature option + tab to fast toggle between mode complete? Miggi posted this on X. Doesn’t work for me. 

I am designing the UI for a puzzle game in Figma, but I'm finding it difficult to make the gameplay feel interactive during prototyping. Simple click-through prototypes don't really capture drag & drop mechanics, block placement, or the overall game feel.How do you approach this in Figma? Do you use interactive components, variables, smart animate, or any specific workflow to simulate puzzle gameplay before development?I would really appreciate any tips or best practices from designers who have worked on puzzle or casual games.

I’m curious how other designers handle organization in larger Figma projects.As files grow, it can become harder to keep pages, components, styles, and versions easy to navigate. I’d love to hear what workflows or conventions have worked well for you.For example: How do you structure pages within a file? How do you organize components and variants? Do you use any naming conventions? What do you do when a project becomes difficult to maintain? I’m mainly looking for practical approaches from people who use Figma regularly. Thanks!

Hi!Hi!I just updated Figma (126.8.18) and now I have huge problems with simply copying and pasting objects, images, icons or text. When I copy and paste an object (on the left) in to a folder (see dark box on the right) it completely breaks the properties and decimal values. It stretches images and the auto width text feature breaks too and is set to Fixed size with a random / broken decimal value.It happens across all Figma projects. I’ve reset Figma and restarted the application and Mac.Help / Troubleshooting / Reset Figma and RestartCan anyone help?Thanx / F

Could some one tell me,  if I deleted my account could I get my data back.

Is there any way to trigger opening a plugin or auto-start a plugin in Figma? For context, we have a project that requires opening, updating, exporting, closing different Figma document automatically. Each time a Figma document is closed the updater plugin is closed. Any time a document is opened, the plugin needs to be manually opened again. So this would break the whole automation. Looks like 3 years ago someone asked this question and the answer was no at the time:  I similarly asked a year ago if auto-start plugins was possible, but at the time they weren’t: Are there any other ways like deeplinks or CLI commands to trigger opening a Figma plugin, or alternatively, any way to keep a plugin open between document open / close states. Ideally with Figma Desktop, but we could work with Figma web as well if it’s possible there. Also, simulating the keyboard shortcut for “Open Last Plugin” isn’t reliable since the user could have opened a different plugin in between. Thanks so much

Is there anyway to bring back the black background for the figma icon?

I’m trying to connect a custom MCP client directly to the Figma Remote MCP Server:https://mcp.figma.com/mcpI understand that Figma’s documentation currently says only clients listed in the MCP Catalog can connect.Could someone from Figma confirm:Is there currently a supported process for a custom MCP client to connect to the Remote MCP Server? If so, is any registration, approval, or specific Figma plan required? For a custom client requiring OAuth, should a Figma OAuth App Client ID/Client Secret be used, or does the Remote MCP Server use a different OAuth flow?I’m specifically asking about a custom MCP client connecting to Figma's Remote MCP Server, not creating a custom MCP connector inside Figma Make or Figma Agent.Thanks!

Hi everyone,I've been granted full edit permissions at the workspace level (as confirmed by my admin), but whenever I open a file I haven't accessed before, I still get prompted to send an edit request instead of being able to edit directly.Has anyone else run into this?

Hi there,anyone know how we can get Figma to engage with us on access issues to Figma Make?

I was making a Figma Slides presentation and, in order to add videos, I upgraded my free account to a Collab, the lowest tier, that was informed as being able to add playable videos to my slides.Then, I added my files with ease, all working just fine, closed the presentation and opened it up again later, only to find that I'm not able to edit my slides with Figma's design tools any more. Not only this presentation, but new ones I create too. The design tool option is greyed out, unable to toggle.What is going on? I need to work on this presentation ASAP being able to work on it with all the functions I had with the Free version PLUS what I had just purchased. This whole situation is becoming really frustrating, since I already paid for a whole year. Thanks in advance! My Figma Slides presentation with Figma Design tools greyed out.My Admin page to showcase what my subscription type is. 

I have a component that has some lines in it. The lines are spaced out with a specific ratio. The idea is that I can use these lines and scale the component while keeping the ratio between the lines the same when I scale the component up or down. I can’t seem to get my head around this. For context it is to be used in a graph.  I have tried farming the lines, I have used the scale property, the Left+Right property and even the Center property and none of the above worked.I have tried to use boxes as spacers between the lines. I can get the boxes to scale correctly, however the lines will not follow the boxes:  Thanks for any input - it will be valued very much!

I accidentally deleted my account, i just had payed the professional plan, now I re entered with my gmail account, the one that was deleted, and it’s all gone and also my professional plan. There is any way to recover at least my professional plan? Thanks.

Hi everyone,​I'm having trouble reverifying my Figma Education status and hoping to get advice or assistance from support/community members who have faced a similar issue.​I submitted the required documentation to confirm my current enrollment, but my application was rejected, and I have now reached the maximum number of automated submission attempts via SheerID.​Documents Submitted:​School ID: Provided (note: my university does not print expiration dates on physical IDs, which SheerID lists as an unacceptable standalone document).​Certificate of Registration: Submitted for the current semester showing my active student status, full name, and institution details.​Tuition Receipt: Submitted to show proof of payment and current term enrollment.​Despite providing official documents showing my active enrollment for this term, the automated system flags the attempt as insufficient or expired, likely due to the lack of an expiration date on the ID card itself.

This is something I want to achieve where circle changes the gradient as timeline moves forward.I'm able to do it for solid colors but not the gradients.Can you please help?  

From my previous question I now know how to transfer or merge an existing two plans (Professional plan merge or transfer to Organization plan) into one from this article: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/10250387712407-Transfer-a-folder-or-team-to-a-different-account#h_01J5BDVCA0XT1PX6B4AB30PZRZBut I still have some few questions: Does the seat transfer from the Pro Plan to the Org Plan also include Collab and Dev Seats? What happens to the existing Pro Plan after the migration? Since the team folders, seats, and team members will be transferred to the Org Plan, we do not anticipate any further need for the Pro Plan. Our primary objective is to fully consolidate everything under the Org Plan. How will the billing work for the additional seats once they are transferred to the Org Plan? The files on the Draft folder of a team member, will that be transferred as well? in the migration process to the Org plan from Pro plan

Hi,Can I create multiple auto layouts at the same time?I want to put icons next to each other in horizontal auto layouts without having to dig my way through 150 rows manually. Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Thank you

Why is this menu here? Why can’t I close it? If it’s supposted to be there (it’s not), why can’t I move it?I want to work on the icon behind the menu, but after asking a completely useless agent for help I can’t even see the icon.  

Hi guys,I’ve been trying to figure out a solution for this for the past few days, but I can’t seem to find one. Maybe Figma isn’t capable of doing this yet, but I wanted to check if anyone has found a workaround.I’m working on a PWA that supports three languages: English, Sinhala, and Tamil. I have two main screen sizes: Desktop and Mobile.What I’m trying to achieve with Figma Variables is something like this:Screen size: Desktop / Mobile Language: English / Sinhala / TamilIdeally, I want Desktop and Mobile to be one set of modes, while the language selection works independently across both screen sizes.Since both Desktop and Mobile use the same three languages, I don’t want to create combinations like Desktop-English, Desktop-Sinhala, Mobile-English, Mobile-Sinhala, etc. The screen size collection is defined on Base. Base uses the two collections as variablesthis two uses the Mobile and Desktop collections as varibales each containing three varibale modes for the 3 languages.Mobile co
