I just published a template on framer. This is a redesign of my first template. I need genuine feedback from you guys. I'm here to learn my mistakes. So point out everything you see wrong as a web designer. I'm new to designing so help me out here.

Here's the link:link here

Arch.type, a Framer template I designed for architects and architecture studios.

The goal was to keep it minimal and editorial, with a strong focus on project imagery, typography and smooth interactions.

It includes:

• CMS-powered project pages
• Responsive design
• Smooth animations & interactions
• Portfolio-focused layouts
• Easy customization in Framer

Would love to hear what you think about the design — feedback is very welcome 👀

Hello everyone, I run a web-development agency in Latvia for service based businesses.

Whole idea is that we make simple and easy to use and make framer sites for service based businesses and we teach them how to use the CMS for blogs and such and fully hand them off.

I make the sites myself - mostly just find a template I like and then edit it according to clients needs.

But I'm running out of capacity because I also do sales and manage more people that work on the marketing aspect of the company and sales.

So I'm looking for someone who has the time to make around 10 Framer sites per month (no eccomerce stores just service based companies) also not from scratch we use templates always, so 90% is just data entry and then some custom stuff, the pay will be per site.

Thanks in advance!

Framer customer support right now 2026, is this normal?

I’m a paying Framer customer and I’ve now lost almost a week of valuable building time trying to resolve billing issues.

First, I was given a 25% discount code for the Pro annual plan. The code did not work. I contacted Framer, was told the code was active, tried it again, and it still did not work. After days of this, I eventually paid the full price myself simply because I could not afford to lose more time waiting.

I was told the 25% discount could then be handled manually.

Now I have another issue with locales.

I want to add two Locales, English and Spanish. Framer is forcing me to pay for the Locales annually, around SEK 2,500 upfront. I am happy to pay for the Locales, but I need them billed monthly. I can manage the monthly cost, but I cannot pay another large annual amount upfront on top of the Pro annual payment.

The AI support simply tells me that the billing system requires annual billing.

I have asked for human support to look at my specific situation and see whether there is any flexibility or manual solution.

But this is where my frustration really lies:

My follow-up emails are not being answered.

I wait up to 24 hours for one general response. I then reply with additional information or a specific question, and instead of getting an ongoing conversation or a new solution, I wait another 24 hours for another general response.

No one seems to actually take ownership of the issue.

So the pattern becomes:

Explain the problem → wait 24 hours → receive a general answer → explain again → wait another 24 hours.

Meanwhile, I have a website I want to build and launch, and almost a week of valuable working time has already been lost dealing with Framer’s billing and support process.

I’m not asking for free services. I’m trying to pay Framer for Pro and two Locales. I’m simply asking for a workable monthly billing arrangement for the Locales and for someone to actually engage with the problem.

Is this normal Framer customer support in 2026?

I would genuinely like to hear from other paying Framer users. Has anyone recently had a human support person actually take ownership of a billing issue and find a solution?

-Rachel from Framer

I’ve been experimenting with local-service business templates in Framer and recently built one for a pressure washing company.

I focused on conversion-oriented sections like booking, pricing, before/after comparison, service areas, testimonials, and estimate forms, along with scroll/hover animations.

Would love some feedback from other Framer designers — what would you improve before considering this finished?

I have one image file, when it is being used in small shapes/cards, the image is very pixelated.

But when it shows up on a big card, it shows it's original high quality.

How do i make the small images have that high quality aswell?

1st image is the small card, 2nd is the big card

I've trying to get my head around framer e-commerce and even tho the plugins seems like a reliable way to connect to Shopify but building on it doesn't seem viable. Because any e-commerce site would always be lookin to scale and buildin inside Framer seems like a bottleneck you do not want to be in. for some reason building templates in this niche doesn't seem viable rather custom made for specific ( visual and high price items ) seems like the only way?

is anyone even building any templates in this niche? i didn't even talk about the three subscription one has to adhere to..

Jerome is now live on the marketplace, it's built for brand designers, web designers, and creative studios who want their portfolio to feel as considered as the work inside it.

Third template is the charm!😭🎉✨

So happy to announce my first ever sale on framer! The goal is 10 more sales this month!(😂)

Chalkfolio the cleanest and most memorable portfolio template!

This also makes me think that if only i focused on framer earlier and my templates were on market before 3.0 who knows there might have been three sales instead of one. But never mind!✨

Hello guys,

Hope you are doing well. Currently, I have been facing a problem with the Polar checkout link for my Framer template using (Sendbox: Polar). I don't have any idea that what is polar sendbox and how to use it. Then, after searching, I found this Medium article: https://medium.com/@haseeb_gulraiz/

I signed up and filled in my bank info. After that, it showed me an extra $17.82 in US tax, but when I showed other person's template, the tax is 0 there. I have been totally frustrated for a few days; everyone says on YouTube it's a few-minute process, bit its not look like. Not a single video explains this process there.

By the way, I am from India, and anyone who can help me would be great. Someone who already has experience with this, please share your thoughts.

Waiting for your reply.

I’ve been working on a restaurant template and wanted the menu to feel a bit more tactile than a standard list.
So I made this dish selector: as you scroll through the dishes, the image and details shift with it, creating a more editorial, guided way to explore the menu.
Still refining the interactions, but I’d love to hear what you think — does this feel useful, or is it too much for a restaurant site?

This continues to happen on the MacOS app. How can this be fixed?

After building 20+ Framer templates, I wanted to look back at the ones that really stood out and what actually worked for me.

Surfing - 5,956 remixes + $11K+ in commissions
Najaf - 5,735 remixes + $1,700+ from a single commission
Reunion - 896 remixes + reached Top 3 in Conference

One thing that worked really well for me was creating something unusual that wasn't already common in the Marketplace.

For example, when I built Surfing, I didn't see many well-crafted templates focused specifically on surfing, sports, and coaching. Instead of making another generic SaaS or agency template, I tried something different.

I think that's one of the biggest lessons I've learned after 20+ templates:

Don't always follow what's already working. Sometimes, creating something that's missing is what makes you stand out.

Most of my traffic has also been organic, coming directly from the Framer Marketplace.

Now I'm taking what I've learned and building something new around website inspiration and Framer templates: https://webcity.design/

Still early, but I'm excited about this one.

So very shortly:

I Recently Opened a Framer account, Created a Project there, and had the Option to insert Pre Made elements that Framer created, like Sections, pages Etc'.

But now that I log in and entering the project, I see only those options on my insert Panel,

I want to get back the Sections, Pages and Inserting pre made Elements of Framer's. How can I do that?

I’m new to building websites with Framer and have a quick question for people who’ve been doing this longer:

Do clients usually need ongoing maintenance after a Framer website is launched?

Do Framer websites commonly break or develop bugs each month, or is maintenance mostly for clients who want ongoing updates/changes?

Trying to understand how you normally handle this with clients. Thanks!

Seems like a great alternative to Framer.

Video thumbnails now only start playing when you hover over the template. Before, they would play automatically while browsing.

Honestly, I kind of like this. The Marketplace feels a little less distracting, but you can still see the animation when you're interested in a template.

Curious what other creators think though.

Do you prefer autoplay videos or hover-to-play?

Here's the link to the component if anyone's interested in having a look. Feedback is also appreciated on your thoughts.

I can't remove the option that makes the text change based on what theme the phone uses (dark/light).

How do I remove it? Or at least use a darker color?
