Add support for OpenID/SAML SSO platforms

Deifine the PHP versions that should be enabled after the installation of the handler
Need the tool that will define the PHP version that is enabled\disabled after the installation of handler.
For example. After the installation any PHP version the dedicated version is enabled.2 votesThank you for you suggestion. However we need more input on what's expected in terms of PHP version management. What's missing that's currently not possible already in Plesk? And how would that benefit you and other users?

Add a feature wizard / feature showcase for feature on updates
TL;DR: This is a feature request for adding a feature wizard/showcase (for lack of a better name) to Plesk. Something that simply let's administrators choose whether they want to enable the new features that have become available when a Plesk update has been installed.
Detailed use case:
Currently, often new features are enabled by default when a Plesk update gets installed on existing Plesk installations. This is not always desirable and can cause confusion with Plesk server administrators. For example administrators might not want to enable new features directly as they become available because they want to familiarize themself with the feature first.

Add possibility to configure Plesk to relay all Plesk notification emails to another SMTP server that requires authentication
Currently, Plesk notification emails relayed to another mail server return "said: 550 Authentication is required for relay (in reply to MAIL FROM command)" errors.
A set of separate settings that allow you to configure Plesk to relay all Plesk notification emails to another SMTP server while using authentication would be very helpful for such setups.

Cloudflare DNS extension for Plesk: Add option to sync subdomain on separate subscription
If I add a subdomain as a subscription (so that it is isolated from other (sub)domains) then I can't sync those subdomains with CloudFlare using Plesk's Cloudflare DNS.
3 votesAccording to https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/zone-setups/ Cloudflare allows to do that only for the enterprise plan. At the moment, only very few users would benefit from a feature as most are on the Cloudflare free plan.
Nevertheless we will consider to implement the feature in a future update of the extension.
Please continue to vote for it if you believe that this is an important feature.

The Sitejet team is working on a "copy and paste" website feature which allows users to copy a website and "import" it in another Sitejet account. It is also already possible to see a preview of the website in Sitejet Builder (screenshot -> Open preview website).

bun
Support for https://bun.sh/ with passanger
10 votesThank you for your idea. At this time, the Node.js drop-in replacement "bun" is in a development stage. There is still lots of work to do and bun does not yet have any significant market share. There are also no signs that a broader community is using this instead of Node.js.
Maybe this will change in the future. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Add PHP shmop extension support useful for Wordpress performance and site health
When you run the Wordpress Helath Check under Wordpress Tools menù and you run a Plesk server you will get the following alert:
You should allow inter-process communication Performance
You should consider using shared memory (PHP shmop) to allow inter-process communication.Could I suggest to add the PHP shmop support?
I'm running PHP 8.3 and I'm not sure to use SSH command to try to get this extension working, will be nice if in the future this can be integrated in Plesk as ... today Wordpress is a very used CMS and we want always to have good performance.Thank…

Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
Meanwhile, if you want to try to install shmop yourself, these are the general steps (provided here without warranty, try it on a test server before applying it to your production system):
1) Install Plesk PHP development package:
For RPM-based OS (CentOS, RHEL, CloudLinux):
# yum install plesk-php83-devel
For Debian-based OS (Debian, Ubuntu):
# apt install plesk-php83-dev build-essential
2) Check what's the currrent version of your PHP 8.0
# /opt/plesk/php/8.3/bin/php -v
3) Download PHP source based on the version of the step 2
For example:
# wget https://www.php.net/distributions/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Please pay special attention that the version matches the one determined in step 2!
4) Extract the .tar file of the PHP downloaded
# tar -xvjf /root/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Again, the version shown here…

Encrypt mysql connections
In https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/32881723 the database connections from a Plesk server to an elsewhere hosted database was added, but we also want encrypted connections from a client or other server to databases hosted on the Plesk server.
Example: An ERP system hosts its data on a centralized MySQL database on the Plesk server. Between the clients and the server all such data is currently transmitted in plain text through the Internet. Instead this data should be encrypted, because normally such data contains personal information such as names, addresses.

Add a "Status" column in the Scheduled Tasks (Cron Jobs) list
The status of a task is currently indicated by a grey or green icon in the "Schedule" column.
It is typical for number of servers to have numerous tasks (let's say.... a bunch of them!)
Adding the availability to sort tasks by their status will be a great help.3 votesThank you for your idea.

Allow for websocket traffic on Docker Proxy Rules
This is a suggestion to add an option to the Docker Proxy Rule feature to add additional proxy configuration that allows websocket traffic.
Currently when adding a Docker Proxy Rule via Plesk a proxy directive gets added to the domain's nginx configuration file. This proxy directive however does not cover configuration for websocket traffic. Because this proxy directive takes precedence over any nginx directives added to the domain's Additional nginx directives (saved in the vhost_nginx.conf) there is no way to make websockets work with a docker container when a Docker Proxy Rule is created via Plesk.
My proposed solution would…

Set HELO/EHLO name in MailEnable on Windows at Plesk installation
A default Plesk install on Windows incorrectly sets the MailEnable hostname to servername.home which is invalid and will cause blacklisting of the Plesk server.
It must be assigned manually:
https://talk.plesk.com/threads/how-to-align-the-mail-servers-helo-ehlo-with-proper-dns-forward-and-reverse-values.368890/#post-924515
...which also may require creating a subscription on the server because the MailEnable settings requires the "sending notifications" email to be locally hosted.A proper hostname should be set at installation, or at minimum a notice shown to the Plesk admin that a manual setting change is necessary.

Include email directories in disk space viewer extension
As described in https://www.facebook.com/groups/plesk/posts/24753472967632807 the Disk Space Viewer extension only shows the usage of directories in a subscription's webserver file path, e.g. /var/www/vhosts/subscriptioname/. The display is misleading some users that have a lot of storage space occupied in their mailboxes. For that reason it would be good if the extension could also include the mailbox paths of a subscription.
