Hi everyone,I’m currently building a design system in Figma that is intended to work well with Code Connect, and I have a question regarding icon architecture.When I use a single icon set with variants, I can map everything under one Code Connect connection — which is great.However, selecting icons inside components becomes very difficult and impractical (huge dropdown).I’m considering switching to separate icon components (e.g. icon/add, icon/close) and using them via instance swap.👉 My questions:• Can multiple icon components be grouped under a single Code Connect mapping?• Or would each icon requir

Hi everyone,I wanted to check if anyone has experienced a similar situation with plugin review timelines.I submitted my plugin (IconNova) on March 27, and it has now been in review for over 3 weeks.Details:- No backend- No network access- All processing is local inside Figma- Data security disclosure completed (shows “follows Figma’s security best practices”)- No warnings or issues shown (status is only “In review”)I did publish a couple of minor updates (rename + description changes), with the last update on April 5, but nothing affecting functionality.From what I understand:- Typical review time is 5–10 business days- Even with re-review, this timeline seems longer than expectedSo I’m trying to understand:- Is this kind of delay normal recently?- Could this be related to queue backlog?- Or is there something else I might be missing?Would really appreciate any insights from

I submitted my plugin for review on March 8th, and as of today (March 27th) I still haven't received any feedback from the Figma team. No approval, rejection, or requests for changes.That's over 20 days of waiting, while the submission form indicated a turnaround of 5-10 business days.Could anyone share how long the review process is currently taking? Is this wait time normal right now, or should I follow up somewhere specific?

I have consumed my AI credits by executing the AI modification command, yet the generated version cannot be displayed or operated normally. Could you please explain why the consumed credits are non-refundable in this case?

I accidentally purchased a full seat on an educational team. This is a team for my school that should remain educational. However, it is now a pro account and I am the only person with a seat. I need to switch back to an educational account ASAP as there are hundreds of profiles that are now view only. How do I do this?

Hello everyone,I'm facing a significant workflow issue when exporting from Figma to React, and I'm hoping the community can help me find a solution.Current Situation:My Figma file uses Untitled UI design system with properly configured variables (colors, spacing, typography, border radius, etc.) I've verified the variables are correctly set up: Colors/Brand/500, spacing-md, Text md/Semibold, radius-lg, etc. When I export/generate code from Figma, I get React code with custom Tailwind classes instead of Untitled UI componentsThe Problem (with real examples):What Figma exports:  jsx// Button<div className="shadow-[0px_0px_0px_1px_rgba(10,_13,_18,_0.18)_inset] rounded-num-8 bg-brown border-gray-400 border-solid border-[2px] overflow-hidden flex items-c

Y’all, how can I connect Stripe, so my desktop app made with Figma Make can collect payment? Is it even possible? I have wasted an entire month of credits prompting, time watching videos, and even more time on Code Mentoring sites looking for help to try to figure out how to get this app to accept a payment. I dont want to leave Figma, but I fear this is my only recourse, if I want to collect payment for this app. I am sure, I am missing something but I cannot figure out what/

Hello,I am trying to create variables in my design file but they aren’t appearing where they traditionally have been. I have usually found them in between the Page and Styles sections on the right side bar. I am on a paid plan. Can anyone help me figure this out? Thank you. 

Our team is noticing that our main design system library is having hundreds of changes flagged in the publishing panel, even after a weekend of not working on the library. The panel shows what’s modified, removed, or added, but isn’t clear what the changes are or what caused them. It’s scary publishing these types of updates because they aren’t coming from our team. Is this something being caused by Figma? How can we feel comfortable publishing so many changes when we weren’t even the ones making them?

Hi,Submitted a plugin for review on April 7th, it's now the 15th and I've heard no feedback or update.The last submission took about 1 day and it was rejected (understandable as it was a test submission). I'm reaching out as I'm not quite confident on what the actual waiting period is, as there seem to be different periods. Is there a system for this like status tracking, estimated queue times, anything? Even something as simple as "reviews are currently taking X days" on the submission page would help a lot. Are we the only ones experiencing this? For further context, resource ID: 1603862402776369499 Any clarity would be appreciated.

I submitted a public OAuth app for review over two weeks ago and haven't heard anything back yet. Just to clarify, this is not a plugin, it's a standalone app using Figma OAuth with the REST API.The wait is starting to affect our deployment timeline. The submission page mentions 5-10 business days, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something on my end or if wait times are just longer than usual right now.Thanks!

We have a good amount of users, but I am looking to only turn on PAYG access to select users once they are approaching limit or hit limit. This allows a workflow to learn the justification before giving that user access. Right now it looks like I have to individually turn everyone off, not to mention that a newly added user has it on by default (should be off by default). Am I missing something?

I wanted to ask if it’s possible to create a QR code scanner inside Figma. Otherwise I wanted to ask what are some valid alternatives. What I wanted to do is to integrate a figma app design that I created with a QR code reader while staying in the app. Thanks

HiI have a button that contains icons and a text layer. I need the text layer to have a max width of 160px as it needs to truncate very long button texts. However, we also need a version, where the text isn’t truncated when above 160 px width for some other designs.My question is, if there is a way to override the max width value in a component instance or if I need to create a boolean text layers with no limit to width, that can then be toggled on/off depending on desired behavior.I guess it can also somehow be achieved using slot components, but I would prefer to just be able to override the max width from the main component on my component instance to avoid complexity.Any ideas? Thanks.  

I have joined an organization as a guest and have been assigned a Dev Mode seat. However, when generating a Personal Access Token (PAT), the 'Code Connect' scope is not available under the Scopes section.

Hi, I submitted my Figma plugin "Flaude" for community review over a week ago and it's still showing as under review. I haven't received any feedback or status updates. Could you let me know: 1. What the typical review timeline is for new plugins? 2. Whether there's anything I need to fix or update on my submission? Happy to provide any additional information needed to move the review forward.Thanks!

With the official roll out and credit limits, is the limit per seat or total for the plan? 

I submitted a plugin for review over 30 days ago and it's still showing as "under review." I wanted to check in to see if it’s normal, or if there's anything needed from my end to move the process forward.Any insights would help! Thanks.

How can I enable the new Variables UI where the button is in the left toolbar and the Variables page opens in full screen? My other account already uses the new UI across all pages, but this account still has the old UI where Variables open in a small modal.  

Hi everyoneI’m currently working on a simple grade calculator UI (something like a GWA calculator), and I’m trying to keep the input experience clean and easy to understand for students.The challenge I’m facing: Users need to input multiple subjects, and for each one:Grade (numeric) Units / weightThen the system calculates a weighted average.It sounds simple, but the UI starts to feel cluttered when:There are many subjects Users need to add/remove rows Inputs start looking repetitiveWhat I’ve tried:Basic table layout → works but feels a bit “heavy” Card-style inputs → cleaner, but takes too much space Minimal rows with “+ Add Subject” → better, but still not fully intuitiveI also checked how existing tools structure this kind of input (for example: 

Hi,I submitted two plugins for review about a month ago, and both are still stuck in "In Review" status. I haven't received any email notification about the review decision.Plugin 1: Markdown | Auto Layout for FigmaPlugin 2: Merge Frames To PDFThis is well beyond the stated 5–10 business day review goal. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to get the review team to look into this?Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
