I am a student and we have a free student plan from our school. I am trying to verify my student plan but it says that I have exceeded the verification limit or I have already activated it. Although the role on my profile is set to Education > Student but when I join on Edu Teams, it wants me to verify my status and I can’t verify it because it won’t let me. I have already contacted SheerID but they take way too long on responding. 

TBH quite disappointing. I purchased a Pro plan solely because of the integrated MCP server, only for it to not work on Cursor (even with all the recommended solutions) and me having to implement alternatives that would have worked on the Free plan. [This post was split from the original thread titled “Figma MCP not working” and retitled “Question: How to set up Figma MCP Server on Cursor?” on Oct 8, 2025.]

Hello,I am a full-time faculty member at one of the global campuses of a well-known U.S.-based university. Our campus is registered as a local higher education institution in my country and is listed as such in the verification process. I am listed as a faculty member both on the local campus page and on the U.S. university’s website.However, after submitting the required documentation to SheerID, I received a message that my document was in a foreign language and would require additional processing time (from half an hour up to two days). This timeframe has passed, yet I have not received any feedback from SheerID, and I still appear as unverified inside Figma. When I try to re-submit, I encounter a limit reached notification. A colleague of mine completed the verification process without any issues.I am already well into the semester, teaching two courses that rely heavily on Figma, so maintaining uninterrupted access is crucial. Needless to say, the user experience of this re-verifi

I noticed that Figma became slow after updating my M3 MB Air to Tahoe. It’s very laggy and noticeable when screen sharing during a Google Meet call.

Hey! I created transparent frame with glass effect applied but it disapears during an export. I tried different export plugins and formats but still glass effect is not presented as is on the exported file. If background is solid everything works perfectly. Is there any way to export it with transparency? The frame    

I set a textbox to a font and then change the weight. It either won’t apply the new weight or will jump to the previous textbox. It’s crazy buggy. Never had Figma be so buggy.

Hello, I am trying to run through the MCP OAuth protocol to register a client on the Figma remote MCP server, running into an issue when calling the registration endpoint.After discovering the registration endpoint via the /.well_known/oauth-authorization-server call, I call the registration endpoint via:curl -sS -v -X POST "$REG_ENDPOINT" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{    "redirect_uris": ["http://127.0.0.1:53195/callback"],    "grant_types": ["authorization_code","refresh_token"],    "response_types": ["code"],    "token_endpoint_auth_method": "none"  }' I get back from this a “Forbidden” response and without this response I can’t continue the OAuth protocol.Does client registration have limitations to prevent it from working on different domains and url callbacks at the moment? I am doing this in a context outside of Claude, Cursor, etc..

When are Figma going to add variables for custom cubic-bezier and durations? We have a design system with a custom library and it’s a real pain adding these to prototypes manually and leads to a bunch of inconsistencies. 

Recently, tap-to-click interactions have been broken in FigJam for me. I first noticed it 4 weeks ago and again it re-emerged this week. Observation: tap-to-click is not working. I have to use the button of my trackpad to select something. Troubleshooting:I’ve confirmed tap-to-click is working in other apps on my computer I’ve quit and re-opened the Figma desktop app I’ve toggled all settings and see no changeHas anyone else noticed this? It’s leading me to explore other whitebaord options that support my interaction patterns 

I have 2 files, a mockup file and a text strings variables file with 2 modes. I updated the text variables using a plugin (Sheets <> variables) this plugin replaced old values with new ones and kept the same variable names. On the mockup file, previous values were already assigned, Updating the Text librray file (after publishing) is not updating the variables. Although it does show the updated value in both modes (arabic and english) if I reassign the same text string variable manually. Going over the text one by one would be a hassle, is there a solution to reflect the updates directly, I was expecting it would after updating. Thank you

Hi, I’m having trouble uploading specific custom font weights to my Figma Site. My site doesn’t need all of these fonts but, once I started having issues uploading certain font weights, I wanted to test how many were unreadable/incompatible. All of the font weights listed are used in my Figma Site but Figma says it “doesn’t match any font in use” when I go to upload the corresponding woff2 file.  

Some code connect snippets will include imports that do not exist:import com.example.ComponentSomeComposable()The actual code connect file will look like this:package com.exampleimport androidx.compose.runtime.Composableimport com.example.SomeThemeimport com.figma.code.connect.FigmaConnect@FigmaConnect("https://www.figma.com/design/something")private class SomeComposableDoc { @Composable fun Component() { SomeComposable() }}@AlarmPreviews@Composableprivate fun SomePreview() { SomeTheme { SomeComposableDoc().Component() }}It seems that it mistakes the method Component for an import. All of my connected classes use the same name for their composable method. 

Hello Figma,I’m facing two challenging issues with the Replace Content feature:  In a table column, when I insert a cell and duplicate it across other cells in the same column, after pressing the Replace Content option, it not only changes the name but also adds an empty link to it. My problem is: why does it add an empty link? I just want it to place text, not link everything to blank pages. When I duplicate a cell into other cells of a column and ask it to rename them, sometimes it behaves poorly and makes only very minor changes. Even though I specifically ask it to fully change the text, it doesn’t seem to understand and does its own thing.  Thanks.

Has anyone tried to publish a Figma Buzz template? Personally I have no feedback to the click on "Publish" button on the “Publish your brand template” modal, and I can’t find my template anywhere.Has anyone experienced the same issue?

Can't measure distances vertically

I can’t see beyond a certain point in the Layers panel, the layers seem to be hidden by an invisible limit, which didn’t exist before the new update to the Layers panel. I can’t edit the layers because I can’t see them, and the focus interaction doesn’t work either. 

I was reviewing the Figma MCP server guide, and it mentions that the MCP Client can be requested by submitting details through the https://form.asana.com/?k=kBG-ejRQTdY8x_H6a4vM3Q&d=10497086658021 form.Could you kindly confirm if this is the correct process to obtain access to the MCP Client? I want to access the Figma MCP Server from our own Oauth client credentials. 

Dear Figma Edu Team,Thank you again for your earlier reply regarding our Figma for Education bootcamp verification for Digital Hollywood. We sent our follow-up information on 5 September 2025 & 17 September 2025 and are writing to kindly check the status, as the the deadline for Edu re-verification is approaching.We understand you are extremely busy; however, thousands of our learners are actively studying Figma, and the impact on them is significant. We would be sincerely grateful for your support so they can continue using Figma smoothly.Thank you for your continued support.Sincerely,Ryuzo YamamotoDigital Hollywood(redacted by the moderator due to PII)

I love Flides. I’m working on a 40-pages file right now and find it hard to browse for skipped slides. I’ll miss them more often than not. I think the designed changed recently?

Hello Figma Team,I’m a student at the Vocational university Brobygrafiska in Sunne, Sweden (Digital Design, expected graduation 2026). For my coursework, I need to verify my account to the education plan. Unfortunately, my application for this has not been processed, neither from Figma or SheerId.Here’s what happened: I entered all my details correctly (school, program, dates, etc.). SheerID didn’t respond. I tried multiple times to provide documents (Student ID, enrollment confirmation) but was not able to, I only received an error message.  I have reached out to Figma support, but every time I only get the same response: “Please contact SheerID.” I did so but didn't receive an answer. What am I supposed to do if SheerID does not reply and simply ignores my requests?   I need to receive an education plan in order to complete my studies.What should I do to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance!

Hello Figma team!I hope you are well. A few days ago I encountered that the function of adding min/max height and width when using auto-layout is not available, It appears but it doesn’t give a chance to edit the values, I don’t know if it is an issue with my PC or if it’s the app. Thank you in advance.

All of our team members are facing issue in using figjam related to Memory issues asking to open in recovery mode only.We never faced this issue ever in Miro would really appreciate if there is an hack for this, tried multiple ways but can’t find the option to reduce memory.

When placing a text layer inside a frame (without any fill, stroke, or effect), Figma shows an unexpected additional color (usually black) in the “Selection Colors” panel.This happens even if the text is styled correctly using a color variable, and there are no other visible color sources. The color cannot be selected, changed, or removed. Adding a transparent fill just adds another color to the list. The issue appears consistently as soon as a text layer is placed inside any frame. This seems to be a misleading behavior in the Selection Colors panel, as the color is not visually present or technically applied to any element. Any takes on this?
