  1. 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…

    Thank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    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…

  2. Update cloudlinux db-governor users when plesk admin password/username was changed

    1. Plesk should change the string in /etc/container/mysql-governor.xml when changing the admin password with cli command: plesk bin admin --set-admin-password -passwd 'PASSWORD'

    2. Plesk should change the string in /etc/container/mysql-governor.xml when the admin password/username is changed in Plesk UI.

  3. Implement OpenApp Sec in Web Application Firewall

    Implement open app sec, as plesk customize the nginx package:

    https://www.openappsec.io/playground
    https://github.com/openappsec/openappsec

    It would be good if is possible to use under plesk because it is a good tool, open source and free, and probably better than comodo/owasp rules.

  6. Add curresponding CLASS / ID to each page in plesk

    In order to support custom css themes, there should be a top class / id that represents the page we're viewing right now.
    There is no way to say via CSS that we view smb/web/view or any other page. So Custom CSS rules are applied broadly to all pages, which limits the option to hide elements, add "::before, ::after" content, redesign specific pages and not all pages with certain CSS rules.

    How should it be implemented:
    You can implement page classes / ids in the html tag or body tag or right after body tag.
    For example:
    1. In "smb/web/view",…

  8. Enable/disable TLS protocol versions through Plesk GUI

    I should not have to use the CLI to enable/disable TLS. This should be a GUI change, just like it is within most browsers. It should also be granular enough to enable/disable one at a time. You provide a great GUI interface...stop making us use the CLI in many cases. Create an advanced section within your settings section for items like this. Force the admin to login when going into this advanced section and have this login logged, so it can be seen later on down the road.

  10. In Plesk File Manager, add an option to move a directory when the destination location already has a directory with the same name

    In Plesk File Manager, add an option "Overwrite existing directories" when moving a directory to a location that already has a directory with the same name.

    Right now, it is required to manually remove/rename the directory before moving.

    The option "Replace existing files" applies only to the files.

  11. Bulk remove databases from subscriptions that no longer exists in the database server

    As seen on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77681371/are-there-any-methods-to-initiate-a-database-synchronization-process-in-plesk it should be possible to auto-remove databases from the Plesk configuration (psa table) that no longer exist in the database server.

    Example: A user has removed databases with "drop database" in the database server shell directly. Such databases are still references in the psa database and are displayed as available databases to GUI users. Such orphants should be removed either automatically (e.g. by nighty maintenance) or by a user command.

  12. Add password change to Nextcloud extension

    As explained in this thread:
    https://talk.plesk.com/threads/set-new-admin-password-for-nextcloud-instance.358380/

    Nextcloud autologin from Plesk no longer works once password has been changed in Nextcloud. Password change feature should be added to Nextcloud extension in order to preserve this feature.

  13. Block new extensions to be installed during Plesk Upgrades

    Add the possibility of switching off any new default extension to be installed automatically during the Plesk Upgrade process without the need of blacklist this explicitly one by one but to block all new extensions installations entirely.

  15. Track who changed the Plesk Administrator password

    The idea is to know who and when changed the Plesk admin password. If it's from CLI, what user (usually root), or if it's on GUI, what IP.
    That should be noted in the action log.
    Right now it isn't.

    In Plesk, there is an ability to create a domain alias for the main domain.
    Could you please add a possibility to sign a message with the DKIM signature message that is sent from the domain alias?

  17. Improvements for Outgoing Mail Control - block mailboxes that send messages to non-existent destination

    It would be great to have the ability to temporarily block mailboxes/domains that send messages to non-existent recipients (external or internal destinations). Such messages not only get deferred and gets stuck in queue, but also increase chances of blacklisting server IP.

  19. Manual Lock for Preservation of Specific Backups in Plesk Backup Manager

    Introduce a functionality in Plesk Backup Manager that allows users to manually 'lock' specific backups, preventing their automatic deletion during the backup rotation process. This feature would enable administrators to preserve critical backups indefinitely, without the need to move files externally or re-upload them, thereby ensuring essential backups remain accessible and protected within the Plesk ecosystem.
