I’m having an issue in Figma Sites where I’ve made a custom nav bar with figma make and it works as I intended except for the fact that I can’t actually link to the pages on my site. I only have three buttons “Work”, “About”, & “Contact” and I’d like to functionality to work like so.When the "Work" button is pressed it automatically goes to the page titled "Home". When the "About" button is clicked it automatically goes to the page titled "/about" When the "Contact" button is clicked it automatically scrolls to the component labeled "Footer 1"I’ve had mixed success with the first and last item. Essentially it defaults to the “scroll-to” interaction but only works on the desktop portion of my Home page. When the About button is clicked I either get a black screen or a “Not Found Error Page”. If anyone has insights on how I might achieve what I’m looking for I’d really appreciate it! The base code for the nav bar without the above linking interactions is attached. 

I have a component named "Popover Item". On that component I applied a hovered interaction. The layer structures in the component variants are already the same. After that, I inserted the instance of that component into another component named "Popover". Then, I inserted the instance of the Popover component into a "Navigation" component.The prototype runs normally and as expected when I use the instance of the Navigation component on the "Homepage" page. The hovered interaction also works as I imagined. Even when I convert the Homepage page into a component, the interaction from Navigation still runs normally.The problem arises when I create a prototype from the instance of that Homepage component. What's strange is that the icon on the Popover Item instance that I had already overridden to be hidden in the Navigation component, suddenly appears after being hovered. I have checked and I think this is not a layer structure problem. However, of course I can be wrong and miss something.I

Do I have access to Figma sites through my Figma student/education account?Thanks

In Figma Make, is it possible to show a dropdown or display a button when hovering with the mouse?I can see hover interactions working when the button color changes or the design updates, but I don’t see cases where another button appears by overlapping layers on hover.Is this something that can only be seen after publishing?

Same here. Our problems started after last update and switching our Professional subscription from  the monthly payment into the annual payment.We have the same issues: changing a variant take ages, changing properties - the same, detaching component with nested component it’s impossible, there is error occurring. Some of the components are older, we used them for couple of months before subscription changes and before last Figma update and it was all ok. What is more concerning is that the memory usage is very low arround 12-20%, so there is something more complicated than memory.I noticed that some people are reporting similar issues after switching from monthly payment into annual one. PLEASE FIND A SOLUTION to this quickly, because we can’t work properly. Some changes are not possible at all.

HelloI’m working on a carousel animation with a smooth transition. I’m having trouble getting it to work quite right — I can make it move from one image to another in one direction of the carousel, but not the other. I want a sliding, drag-style transition between the images.It is supposed to have a round curve on the animation.Thank you in advance for taking the time to read the above. I hope someone can help me.Project link:  

I’m working in a file I haven’t used in about 6 months or so. Certain images in my figma files aren’t loading. I’ve tried on desktop and web. I’ve cleared my cache, force quite and reloaded, viewed in preview mode and nothing is working. I know there are a lot of issues due to aws outages, but I’m not sure if this is related, or if my images are corrupted in some way. Is anyone else experiencing this? 10.20.2025

How can I return my spacing, and padding controls to my UI? When I make an auto layout my controls aren't showing.

I am reading through OAuth support for Figma Plugins: https://developers.figma.com/docs/plugins/oauth-with-plugins/#saving-the-access-token-locally One thing I am confused about is how to handle refresh tokens? Should the Figma Plugin frontend store the refresh token along with the access token and handle refreshing at the proper time, or should the plugin backend store them and handle it? I feel like storing the refresh token in the Figma Plugin frontend is not great for security, since some OAuth providers might require the client secret to be sent along with a refresh request. If the backend handles refreshing tokens, I see a couple of hurdles:do we need to generate a new read key for the plugin to poll? how does the backend know what access token it is refreshing? Do we send in the current user ID or the access token we want refreshed?It also seems to go against what the documentation says, since it states that the server should delete the access token from the server after it has

Could you please let me know if there are plans to make a Figma app for iPads? And if so, when is it expected to be released?I’d really love to be able to work in Figma on an iPad the same way you can on a computer!!!!!

Hello,The desktop app that I have always used on my MacBook with MacOS 11.7.10 operating system stopped working today. There is a white cross on the app preview: when I click to open the application, a notification appears saying that MacOS 12.0 operating system is required.The MacBook (from 2015) can no more be updated. I am asking if it is possible to use the Figma desktop app on the previous version anyway. Is it possible to install a previous version? [The title of this post was updated from “No more access on Figma Desktop” to “Figma Desktop App Requirements” by a moderator on 30-Nov-2025.]

I’ve enabled Google Analytics in a Figma Site that I launched about a month ago and I’m able to see Users and Page Views, but not the Engagement Time. Is there a way to fix this or is it a know issue?

I’m pretty sure the real answer is “don’t set up your components that way” :P but I thought I’d ask in case its a bug.I have an open branch with a main component, and I copied an instance of that component over into another branch, both under the same master. (Branches will remain unmerged until the dev work is complete.)When I click “Go to main component,” instead of taking me to the branch with the main component, it just drops me on the first page of the master file.Is it because it’s bad practice to reuse components across unmerged branches--they don’t count until they are merged and published? Or is this a bug and it should be able to take me to the branch containing the main component?

I’m trying to clean up how shared configuration data is handled in a Unity project and wanted to sanity-check my approach.For things like gameplay tuning values, item definitions, and balance parameters, I’ve seen both of these patterns used: Static data classes with constants or readonly fields ScriptableObjects used as data containers, referenced by systems at runtime I understand the general benefits of ScriptableObjects (serialization, inspector editing, asset reuse), but I’m less clear on the tradeoffs once a project grows in size — especially around testing, version control, and runtime safety. In practice, when do you consider static data classes the better option, and when do ScriptableObjects clearly scale better?

I am facing a recurring technical issue while managing collaborators in a Figma file.Issue description: I add 3–4 collaborators to a Figma file (a mix of Can view and Can edit access). Later, I remove all collaborators one by one. After removing everyone, I change the share setting from “Anyone with the link” to “Invited only.” When I close the Share pop-up, a confirmation dialog appears again asking me to remove the last person I already removed. When I click Remove, the main Share pop-up opens again. As soon as I close it, the same “Remove collaborator” pop-up appears again. This creates an infinite loop, and the issue does not stop unless I completely close the Figma tab and reopen it.Expected behavior:Once a collaborator is removed and the share setting is updated to Invited only, no additional removal pop-ups should appear.Temporary workaround:Closing and reopening the browser tab fixes the issue temporarily.Please let me know if you need any additional details, screen r

Hello,I cannot use my education plan eventhough I am verified as a student. I have been verified before, and in summer figma sent my an email that I need to re-verfiy my student status. I did that and sheerID confirmed with me that my student status is still fine and I should be able to continue like normal.They also stated in the email that I will receive an email from figma about how to set up my education plan etc but I never received that email. I also tried to contact the customer support but I never got a reply.I also chatted with the AI support but that lead to nothing. I can access my files and edit them with the free plan. I have been invited to an education team by a fellow student. They have the educatio plan and it works just fine. When I open a file in that team it tells me I need to verify my status in order to not lose access. But when I go to my account under role it tells me I have the “education” role. When I want to verify my status via the button that pops up when I

Hello Figma Community and Support Team, I am an eligible student who has been blocked from accessing the Figma Education plan due to a critical "Verification Limit Exceeded" error from SheerID. I am urgently seeking assistance as my access has been locked for over a week, and I am stuck in a loop between Figma and SheerID support. My Situation and Evidence:Undisputed Eligibility: I was successfully verified twice previously: Once with the old Figma system (early 2025). Once successfully with SheerID in September 2025. I have attached evidence of this successful SheerID verification in my communication with the support team. The Cause of the Block: A necessary email change on my Figma account triggered an immediate re-verification request that failed due to the "Verification Limit Exceeded" error, locking my account. Support Deadlock: Figma refers me to SheerID for a limit reset. SheerID refers me to Figma regarding email policy and auto-responds with a 4-7 day response time, which h

Hello!Figma desktop app is not loading and opening the project.What’s the problem?

Dear Figma Support,I noticed an additional charge under "One-time charges and credits" after I mistakenly assigned a team member as an Editor, which triggered a paid seat. I immediately reverted them back to View-only, and the seat was never used.Since this was an unintentional action. I kindly request a cancellation or refund of the related charge. I understand that Figma charges automatically when a seat is upgraded, but I would greatly appreciate your understanding in this case.Thank you for your understanding and support.Best regards,Nick

Hello Figma Team, I’m a student from Northeastern University, Boston campus. I’m having a bit of an issue verifying my student account for Figma, even though I have official information to verify my status, and now exceeded the number of attempts.  I looked up multiple forum posts about similar cases as mine, and the advice I read is to contact SheerID support directly & ask them to reset my attempts. I followed the troubleshooting steps that Ariadna provided for me, but I still don’t have student access :( [image redacted by moderator - ksn] 

Hello!I have a very unpleasant situation. I accidentally deleted a team that contained all my work files. The email address associated with my account was unable to receive an email with a link to restore the team because the email's storage space was full. I have since cleared the email's storage, but the email has not been received. I urgently need to regain access to this team, and I am pleading with you for assistance. The email address that did not receive the email is [redacted by forum moderator to remove PII]

Resumo do problema O Figma Desktop abre, mas fica apenas com a tela preta ou em branco, sem carregar a interface.
