Launched: Delete Multiple Pages at one time in Figma

PROBLEM
Deleting multiple pages is painfully slow. The current version of Figma only supports deleting one page at a time.

SOLUTION
Allow multiple pages to be selected (Shift + Click, or COMMAND + Click) and Deleted (Delete Key or Right-Click > Delete).

Did you try reloading the Figma tab? Right-click Figma file tab and choose “Reload Tab.”

Curious if the also resolves the issue.

Gleb, this API really has been disabled but this plugin still working is a miracle, try running figma.root.children.forEach(n=>n.remove()) in the console and you’ll get Uncaught Error: in remove: Removing this node is not allowed

It probably uses some logic code to work around that as it automatically creates a new page. Not sure what you are surprised by. 🙂

@Gleb The API documentation did not specify how to work around it, the plugin author must have implemented some genius logic, I tried this exact code yesterday in scripter, and it didn’t work

This is a very simple potential error that probably came up during development or plugin review process. And a fix is as simple as checking the number of pages (figma.root.children.length) and creating a new page before removing the last one.

Wonder 🤩 Recently I just needed to delete more than 130 pages, and this solution was the blessed one for this problem. Figma, please… release for all!
