Hey Johannes, this is not possible at the moment. The only workaround would be here to put the text in a separate text frame to create an interaction. Thank you for raising this feature request with us!

Hi, I was about to create a new post for this but found this.

I really need this feature because I’m building a prototype for a sort of wiki. That means lots of links within the same paragraph. But I need to be able to navigate Back to the previous page, which is currently impossible unless I place all my text links in separate frames. Check out an example file/prototype here.

This means I can’t create a functional wiki-like structure in Figma. I would really like it if we could either add a ‘Navigate to’ interaction to a text snippet rather than a text frame only, or use a ‘Back’ interaction after a URL link.

I’ve also contacted Figma Support about this who indicated there’s no solution for my use case and that they would pass on my request to the team.

Hi @Gayani_S, do you know if there is any timeline for this to be a feature in the future? I am too in need of have text be links to prototype pages.

Hey @Simon31, thank you for reaching out! Unfortunately, I can’t share a timeline, but I definitely understand the importance of this feature. I am going to share this internally with the team to get more attention on this feature request.

Thanks,

Gayani

Hi @Gayani_S, thank you for coming back to me and for sharing internally.

Currently you can link text like:

“You can Contact Us and we will answer your questions”

but all you can link this to is a URL pop-up, so you can’t actually link inline text to a page like normal prototyping. Surely this can just make a normal prototype pop-up?

Currently you have to add floating frames over the text, which go out of alignment when the client edits/adds words to the paragraphs making it really annoying to have to go in an edit all these floating frames.
