In the Figma mac app I have a Make file that will not display changes to a specific page (code file). If I publish and then go view it at the url the changes are there. I also tried viewing the Make file in the browser but it still did not show the changes. If I alter the code in code view and come back the change is there, but the preview still doesn’t show the change.

I tried refreshing the tab. Closing the file and reopening it.

I tried going to Help > Troubleshooting > Reset Figma and Restart but it did not correct the issue.

I also tried manually clearing the cache

  1. Quit the Figma desktop app
  2. Open Terminal.app and enter the following command: rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Figma"
  3. Open the desktop app again

The AI in Figma Make was just as confused as I was about the situation 😆

Any help solving this so I don’t have to Publish after every change and view it in the browser would be appreciated.
