Add customer number to frontend
There already is an API field for the customer number. Why can't I set this through the UI?
Would be critical for us to be able to automate billing.2 votesWe are closing the current request as no further clarification was provided for over 2 months.

Can I suggest a server side loading progress bar? thanks
It would be possible to create an extension so that when the web loads a progress bar appears. But the progress bar appears before the page loads, that is, from the moment the request is made to the server. Thanks
2 votesThank you for your update. If I understand correctly, you would like to incorporate a progress bar into a web page that will load prior to the initial server response. Unfortunately, this is out of scope for a control panel to deliver. It will be best to consider consulting with a website developer. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Feature Suggestion for Easier Website Migration Process
Dear Plesk Support Team,
I appreciate your response to my recent query. I understand that server-specific issues need to be handled by the hosting provider, but I’d like to take this opportunity to suggest a feature enhancement for Plesk.
During my recent experience, I faced challenges while trying to migrate an old .aspx website from the main domain to a subdomain and shift a WordPress website from a subdomain to the main domain. This process was more complex than expected, and it would be helpful if Plesk could offer a more user-friendly or automated tool for such domain and subdomain…

Show DNS zone settings to the customer without giving the ability to change it.
Currently, disabling DNS settings permission hides DNS menu. It would be better instead for the customer to be able to check their current settings without being able to change them.

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.

security headers
I have to say I was delighted to see that Plesk.com (unlike so many sites) has all its security headers* in order, but it would be really good if this was a thing that could be operated easily from within Plesk given the massive importance of them. It would also tidy up A LOT of the stuff to do with many of the things that people are asking on here with things like X- headers, Pragma and Caching, etc.
There are a few plugins that are usable for this for Wordpress (probaly other things, but not the admin panel or…
2 votesWe understand that you are asking to add specific headers and maybe to remove others, but the broad range of what could be expected does not allow this to be done in a single feature request. It is also not possible to standardize such settings as the vast number of users all require different settings. All headers can already be individually set, it just needs an individual analysis what makes sense and what does not, tailored to each website.

Support for Load-Balancers (Hosting Company Structure)

Allow customers access to multiple subscriptions
In some situations where several customers with different subscriptions will collaborate with each other, there's no way to give access to their existing accounts to all the appropriate subscriptions.
Right now it's necessary to create new accounts for this setup, and it'd be a lot easier if one could just use the existing ones to avoid messy duplicated and allow management through AD.
2 votesDue to security concerns, it won't be possible to grant a particular customer with access to several subscriptions. Therefore, we are closing the current request. However, there is a similar request for Users with access to multiple subscriptions and we would like to encourage you to vote for it:

Strapi as Headless CMS
Implementing Headless CMS "STRAPI" - or other's, so Admin can define Data to transfer to Clients, without coding Backend
2 votesAccording to market data, 97% of users who are seeking a headless CMS are not choosing STRAPI. Also, that type of software is not a software to maintain web, mail or database servers, so it is naturally not a component to integrate with Plesk. For these reasons there are no plans to integrate this one specific headless CMS into Plesk.
Instead, it is one out of thousands of application programs that can be used on a Plesk maintained server. You can already use it today on a Plesk server.
If you would like to see some sort of integration of STRAPI with Plesk, e.g. an easy installation routine made for websites hosted on Plesk, maybe you can suggest to their developers to create a Plesk extension for their software, using the free Plesk API for that: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/extensions-guide/plesk-extensions-in-a-nutshell.76331/

Switch Fail2Ban to global Apache log if "Piped logs" option is enabled.
As for now, Fail2Ban parses error logs on a domain level. If there are more than 500 domains on the server and the "Piped logs" option is enabled in Apache configuration, it would be more efficient for Fail2Ban to automatically switch to a global Apache log.
2 votesThe request is based on the false assumption that it would be more efficient to parse only the central access_log if many domains are hosted on a server. In reality in such a scenario that log will grow huge very fast. This will increase parsing time of Fail2Ban considerably and can lead to stalling the service. Instead, for Fail2Ban it is much better to split jails, and on servers with many domains even split Apache jails into parts by domain start letter A ... Z so that the individual Fail2Ban process can finish swiftly and free resources again for other tasks.
For that reason we decline the request.

Separate folder for backups
Make it possible, to specify a separate path on reseller/customer basis, reasoning being that if there are physical hard drives dedicated to the customer they can not include the backups on it.
2 votesNo details were provided why the existing separation of user backups in folders is insufficient. Also Plesk does not support separate drives for different subscriptions. Such a scenario could be achieved by putting accounts on different servers, too. No further information was provided on this topic. Regarding the low number of votes on this feature we must decline it.
