How to Convert Figma to WordPress (4 Easy Ways, Including AI)

Our design team plans page layouts in Figma before building them in WordPress. Designing first lets you settle on the exact layout, then recreate it on your site.

In this guide, we’ll show you four ways to convert Figma to WordPress, starting with the AI method we tested ourselves.

Before You Start: Prepare Your Figma Frame

A frame is a single fixed-size canvas in Figma that holds one screen or one page of your design.

The AI method and converter plugins read your frame directly. A clean frame saves you a round of fixes later.

Figma’s free Starter plan is enough for everything in this guide, so you don’t need a paid Figma account to follow along.

First, select your frame and press Shift + A, or click the Auto layout button in the right-hand panel.

Auto Layout tells Figma to space and stack elements by rules rather than by fixed positions. It helps your design convert for mobile devices later on.

Next, rename your layers to describe their content, such as “Hero Image” or “CTA Button” instead of “Rectangle 47”.

AI tools and converter plugins use those names to understand each layer. Clear names mean fewer fixes afterward.

If you have time, design a mobile frame alongside your desktop one. That gives any tool a real reference for how the page should stack on a phone instead of leaving it to guess.

Finally, you need the link to that specific frame. Right-click the frame, go to ‘Copy/Paste as’, and choose ‘Copy link to selection’.

The link you get contains node-id=, which tells the tool which frame to read. A plain file link without node-id= points to the whole file instead of your selected frame and won’t work with AI or converter plugins shown below.

Method 1: Convert Figma to WordPress With AI

The fastest way to turn a Figma design into a WordPress page is to let AI read your frame and rebuild it for you. You need three things, and all three have free plans.

The first is Claude, the AI assistant doing the work. The second is Figma’s official connector, which is the piece that gives Claude permission to read your Figma file.

The third is WPVibe, a free plugin that connects your WordPress site to Claude and builds the page directly on your site.

On Figma’s free Starter plan, you get up to 20 AI reads a month. That is enough for a handful of pages. Paid plans give Dev and Full seats up to 200 reads a day, while View and Collab seats stay at 20 a month.

To get started you will first need to connect Figma. In the Claude app, go to Settings » Connectors, find Figma, and sign in with your Figma account.

If you use Claude Code, run the /mcp command and pick Figma from the list.

Next, install and activate WPVibe on your WordPress site the same way you install any plugin. For step-by-step instructions, see our guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

Once it’s active, the WPVibe screen walks you through three short steps. Copy the MCP server URL it shows, add it to Claude as a connector, and verify your email using the six-digit code the plugin sends you.

Then, ask Claude to connect your site and approve it with one click from inside wp-admin. You never copy a password anywhere in this process.

Once you have successfully connected WPVibe to Claude, go ahead and paste your frame link in Claude with this prompt.

Read this Figma frame: [paste your link]. Rebuild it as a new DRAFT page using native WordPress blocks only (group, columns, heading, paragraph, buttons, image). Upload the images to the media library. Match the colors, fonts and spacing. Do not publish.

The phrase ‘Native blocks’ in the prompt means the standard blocks that come with WordPress, so the page you get stays editable in the normal block editor and doesn’t need any extra plugin to display.

The word DRAFT matters too, since it keeps the page off your live site until you’ve looked at it.

When we ran this on our test site, a single read of the frame gave Claude the exact hex colors, font sizes, line heights, padding values and corner radii from the design.

The first draft arrived in 3 minutes and 20 seconds, and those values came through in native blocks.

The layout was what needed fixing before the page looked like our Figma frame. Claude also uploaded our images using WPVibe’s media upload tool.

This only works when your design holds real images. A placeholder rectangle in Figma produces no image at all, and you get no warning about it.

Four things did go wrong in our test. Two button blocks saved in a state WordPress treated as invalid, and the editor showed an “Attempt Block Recovery” notice on them.

Clicking that notice fixed both buttons, but it looks alarming if you aren’t expecting it.

The second problem showed up on desktop. Claude built our sections at the theme’s normal content width.

The design sat in a narrow column in the middle of the screen, and the three feature cards broke one word per line. It looked nothing like the Figma frame.

We asked Claude to fix the section and that worked. However, changing full width alone was not enough and the inner content width had to be widened too.

You can also take a screenshot of the area that needs fixing and tell Claude to adjust the width.

The third problem was cosmetic. Rounded corners on images did not carry across in our test. You will need to set those yourself afterwards.

The fourth problem was the Mobile view, where Claude had copied the design’s fixed 120px side padding across without changing it.

On a 390px wide phone, that left only 150px of room for the content.

One follow-up message fixed the phone view. We asked for the side padding and the hero heading to scale with the screen instead of staying at fixed sizes, and it worked.

Before you publish, open the draft on a desktop and on your phone. If anything looks off, describe the fix to Claude in plain words, then check both views again.

When everything looks right, publish the page from the WordPress editor.

If your design has several pages or complex layouts, you may need to repeat these steps a few times to get everything right.

Method 2: Build It in SeedProd

If you’d rather not hand your Figma file to a tool, you can rebuild the design directly in WordPress with SeedProd, the best WordPress theme and landing page builder on the market.

The free version carries the drag-and-drop builder this method needs, and it runs on over 600,000 sites.

SeedProd has no Figma import. This means you recreate the design yourself and control every element from the start.

Open your Figma frame on one side of your screen and the SeedProd builder on the other, then drag blocks onto the canvas to match what you see.

You can drag images, headings, videos, buttons, optin forms and paragraph blocks from the left column.

Clicking any block you’ve added opens its settings, where you can match the font size, color, alignment and spacing to your design.

We rebuilt our test landing page this way in the free version of SeedProd, and the screenshot above shows the result.

For the full process, see our tutorial on how to create a landing page in WordPress.

If your design is fairly standard, SeedProd also offers an AI webste builder that can generate a whole website from a short description of your business, which gives you a starting point to match to your Figma design.

You can generate up to three sites for free and download each one as a theme file. To edit the result inside WordPress, you need a SeedProd Pro plan.

You then adjust that result to match your Figma design instead of starting from an empty canvas. For details, see our guide on how to create a website with AI.

Method 3: Use a Figma to WordPress Converter Plugin

If you want to stay inside Figma and convert your design without AI doing the building, a converter plugin is the best option.

UiChemy is the best Figma to WordPress converter plugin we have found, and it’s active on over 8,000 sites.

What we like most about UiChemy is that it works with page builders like Elementor and Bricks, not only the block editor. Most Figma plugins built for WordPress only output block editor code.

To use it, you install two pieces, the UiChemy plugin on your WordPress site and the UiChemy plugin inside Figma. It needs WordPress 6.9 or newer, so check your site meets that before you start.

In your WordPress dashboard, open UiChemy and go to the ‘Figma Plugin’ tab.

Under ‘Page builder’, choose Elementor, Gutenberg or Bricks. Then find ‘Connection link’ below it and click ‘Copy’.

That link has your login and a secure application password built into it. Treat it like a password and keep it to yourself.

UiChemy has a separate Figma plugin for each builder it supports, one each for Elementor, Gutenberg and Bricks. In Figma, open the ‘Tools’ menu, search for UiChemy, and run the plugin that matches the builder you picked in WordPress. The steps are the same in all three.

If it’s your first time using UiChemy, create an account and follow the setup wizard.

Next, choose ‘Quick Conversion’ and select your target library, such as Kadence, WordPress Core, or Nexter.

These provide blocks you can use to build pages in the WordPress editor rather than separate page builders. Choose WordPress Core for standard block editor output, or select the library your site already uses.

Then, select your Figma frame and click ‘Import’.

When prompted to choose a method for exporting your design to WordPress, select ‘Add Another Site’ under ‘Site Connection.’

Paste the connection link you copied from your WordPress dashboard and click ‘Connect.’ Your site will then appear in the ‘Select Site’ list whenever you convert a design.

UiChemy now shows you two import options.

‘Direct Import’ sends the entire design to your WordPress site as a draft page, while ‘Copy to Clipboard’ lets you copy one section at a time and paste it into an existing page.

The free plan covers a small project comfortably, giving you 1,000 credits a month, one Figma seat, one site project and five pages per site.

Paid plans start at $8 a month billed annually when you need more.

UiChemy needs your design to use ‘Auto Layout’ and follow certain rules to work properly. Converting an older design may mean adjusting it first.

Figma to WordPress Block does a narrower version of the same job. This Figma plugin converts one frame into block editor code. The free version limits how many frames you can export, and a paid license removes that limit.

You select your frame, open the ‘Tools’ menu from the left column and search for the plugin. When you find it, click the ‘Run’ button.

This will open a popup where you can click ‘Convert to WordPress’ and copy the result. Then paste it into the block editor on any page to get your design as blocks.

Method 4: Hire a WordPress Agency

For a full website or a design with complex functionality, hiring a developer is usually the better choice.

Figma handles the design side only, meaning a developer has to build anything that needs to work on your site, like dynamic content, custom post types or a checkout flow.

A good agency also makes the design work on phones and tablets. You should still check the finished pages on your own phone before you approve the work.

Figma to WordPress FAQs

Can I turn my Figma design into a website?

Yes, you can turn a Figma design into a working WordPress website, and there are four ways to do it. You can let AI rebuild it for you, recreate it in a page builder like SeedProd, run it through a converter plugin, or hire an agency. The first three need no coding at all.

Is there a Figma plugin for WordPress?

There are several, and UiChemy and Figma to WordPress Block are the two we’d point you to first. Figma itself has no built-in WordPress export, so you always need one of these tools or a method like the AI one above to move a design across.

Can AI convert Figma designs to WordPress?

Yes, and we tested it for this guide using Claude with Figma’s connector and the WPVibe plugin.

It matched the colors, font sizes and spacing from a single read of the design, but it broke the phone view by copying the design’s fixed side padding across unchanged.

Method 1 above has the full account, including the message that fixed it.

How do I convert Figma designs to Elementor?

UiChemy is the tool for this, since it converts a Figma frame into an editable Elementor layout rather than flat code. It also works with Bricks and the block editor so you aren’t locked into one builder.

Is WordPress better than Figma?

Neither one is better, because they do different jobs. Figma is where you design how a page should look, and WordPress is what runs your website and serves it to visitors.

Most sites use both, with the design settled in Figma first and then built in WordPress.

Does converting from Figma to WordPress hurt SEO?

Converting a Figma design to WordPress generally won’t hurt your content or backlinks.

Automated conversion tools can sometimes add extra code that developers call bloat, and that heavier code can slow your page down compared to a hand-coded theme.

We recommend running a speed test after any conversion to see where you stand.
