  2. Add support for Application Settings/Environment variables for .NET web apps

    It looks like you can add applications settings/enviroment variable for Node and PHP application.

    But there is no way of doing the same for .NET/.NET Core web apps.

    Today you need to use the File Manager to open appsettings.json, but that is a really bad solution, and a new deployment can/will overwrite it anyway.

    Only connection strings can be added, but it´s a big miss to not be able to add settings/variable for the current environment, for example API keys, SMTP settings or other applications settings.

  6. Add IIS App Pool start/stop and recycle permissions separately from enable permission

    At the moment there is only one permission for IIS App Pool Management.

    It would be interesting if a subscription had the permission to start/stop or recycle their dedicated App Pools, but not to create new ones.

    In this scenario, there would be an option to provide the subscription with a single App Pool, and let them manage it, but not to create new App Pools.

  7. Prevent users to be able to remove files from file manager

    Add the possibility to prevent/block any file or directory removal from within the File Manager in Plesk by the subscription/domain users.

    An example that could be applied is the same as it can be applied already for ProFTP config files as follows:

    <Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/.cagefs>
    <Limit ALL>
    DenyAll
    </Limit>
    </Directory>

    <Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/.cl.selector>
    <Limit ALL>
    DenyAll
    </Limit>
    </Directory>

    <Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/error_docs>
    <Limit DELE>
    DenyAll
    </Limit>
    </Directory>

    <Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/httpdocs>
    <Limit RMD>
    DenyAll
    </Limit>
    </Directory>

    <Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/httpdocs/*>
    <Limit RMD>
    AllowAll
    </Limit>
    </Directory>

  8. More advanced anti-ddos interface and settings

    This (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000784914-What-DDoS-protection-tools-are-available-in-Plesk) recently updated article shows that we still need paid extensions to better protect our servers against ddos attacks.

    It would be great if Plesk would create a more advanced anti-ddos monitoring tool with a useful interface, alerts, and the right amount of settings to better protect our servers from ddos attacks without the need to install a third party extension with additional costs. Preferably created with "good defaults" in mind.

    Effective DDoS solutions must be installed before the server, not on the server. Because once an attack is able to reach the server, it will block all network bandwith and create a high cpu load so that the server becomes unavailable for other tasks. No on-server DDoS protection can perform good enough to keep a server safe from that. Plesk already has on-server protection, such as Fail2Ban and the built-in firewall capabilities. Nevertheless, we'd love to hear what you are missing as an on-server protection.

    The request asks for and "advanced anti-ddos monitoring tool with a useful interface, alerts, and the right amount of settings".

    Could you please be specific about these points. 

    - What exactly makes an "advanced" tool for you?

    - How do you imagine a "useful" interface?

    - What "alerts" would you like to get?

    - What are the "right amount of settings" for you?

    Please let…

  9. MySQL change the charset

    Allow to chose another charset when creating a database or do not set one.

    Plesk does use:
    "CREATE DATABASE databasename /*!40101 default charset=utf8 */"
    And with this does overwrite when the MySQL config was changed to use utf8mb4 for example.

    Or allow to choose a charset on creation or create DBs with:
    "CREATE DATABASE databasename"

  10. Add functionality for Watchdog to monitor extension services

    Currently, the Watchdog component can not monitor extension services.
    Suggest to add extensions services (e.g. Immunify 360) to the list of the services scanned by Watchdog.

  12. Automatically synchronize folders created via outlook in Plesk Premium Email Kolab

    Since Kolab Syncroton does not enable sync on newly created folders, it should be enabled manually.

    They would need to select the ActiveSync device ID, click to enable the synchronization of the folder and save the changes.

    While it was nice if there will be an ability to do so automatically.

  13. Add multiple Git users with SSH Key authentication

    We are waiting for this feature in Plesk: https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/18772873

    We've to apply manually the commands described in here, which is not the desired user experience: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006103313

    Said that, I'm creating this request because it would be a great step if Plesk would also allow Git users with SSH Key authentication. There isn't any workaround available, which is quite frustrating that after 2 years Plesk didn't implement it.

  16. Allow changing the percentage threshold when mail quota warning is sent and also allow CC to administrator

    Allow changing the percentage when the mail quota warning is sent, in small sized mailboxes the 95% could be almost to late.
    So it would be good to have an option to adjust it for example to 85% or other values.

  17. Add the possibility to back up/include selected files and folders in the Backups

    Currently, it's possible to exclude some files/folders from backup creation: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000773605

    But this feature should be improved because in some cases excluding is not a valid solution.

    Let's say that there are multiple files and folders, as you can imagine, the list of exclusion would be too long and it would require a lot of time to create it. Moreover, the list will need to be updated each time there are new folders on the webspace.

    Due to these reasons, an improvement should be provided to this feature, the customer should be able to create a backup including only the…

  20. Organize WordPress sites into groups for easy managing

    We manage Wordpress Sites for our Customers in different Levels, like managed Bronze-, Silver- or Gold-Level.
    If we can group the Wordpress-Sites, it will be easy to select all Gold-managed Sites for Updates, Optimisations, etc.
    A field for comments would also be fine.
