  1. Passenger to log output separately per domain basis

    Currently all passenger NodeJS process output their logs to /var/log/apache2/error.log.

    Would be good to be able to log output separately per domain basis, so every domain has it own log inside the folder.

  2. Creating a global FTP(S) account

    It might be usefull to create one or more Global FTP(S) accounts which can access all the vhost directories. In addition an IP Whitelisting filter might be desirable to additionally protect access.

  3. 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.

  5. Add support for the Cluster module in Passenger

    Add support for the Cluster module in Passenger supplied with Plesk:
    https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html#cluster_cluster

    Currently, when Node Cluster module is called on a NodeJS application configured in Plesk in development mode, the following error is be shown:

    Trace: You required the Node Cluster module, which is incompatible with Passenger, a non-functional shim was returned and your app may still work. However, please remove the related code as soon as possible.

  6. Clone domain files and database

    Hello,
    Tipically having a CMS running (ie Prestashop) requires also setting up an exact copy for testing new features/uogrades/updates.
    We have to manually:
    1) Export/import database dump into a new one,
    2) copy files and dirs into a new (sub)domain
    3) change some settings (config files) to link new (sub)domain to the newly imported database

    Couldn't at least points 1) and 2) be automatized with a 1-click option after inserting some data (ie new database name, user, pw)?
    Cheers

  8. NodeJS Allow more environment variables

    When setting environment on a NodeJS App (using NodeJS extension) I am getting to the limit of four variables, sometimes five.

    I assume that line ending is reached or something. I am connecting to several mongodb databases and for each db I need to auth which is set within an environment variable.

    This limits my app a lot since I need to build overcomplicated workarounds using files to be loaded async and their content to be validated, then connecting to the db and so on.

  12. Integrate Snaps

    It would be great if we could install Snaps (Containerized applications from Canonical) from Plesk. Things like Rocket.Chat would be one-click installs from there

    During 3 years this request only received 3 votes. It did not become popular. As Plesk already offers Docker, which provides more security compared to Snap, because it shields applications in a kind of "lightweight virtual machine", we are wondering what benefit you see in using Snap instead of Docker. 

    Please let us know in your comments. Give us good reasons why integrating Snap is a must for a control panel.

  13. Change database autogenerated name convention in APS

    Installing Wordpress 8or other apps) via APS, the autogenerated database name is something like 'wordpress_N' with N incrementing from 1, that is non-sense and causes great troubles when using Plesk Migrator to migrate a subscription to another server when there are already installed applications.

    You may name the database like 'wordpressX' with X random, or include part of the domain name in the database generated name, for example if domain is named testdomain.tld the db name maybe 'testdomainX'.

  16. Add the ability to manage (tune) WAF ruleset via CLI

    Add the ability to manage (tune) WAF ruleset like Comodo via CLI without being overwritten by ModSecurity Rule sets updates.

    For example, it would be useful to have the solid opportunity to edit files like "/etc/httpd/conf/modsecurity.d/rules/comodofree/userdatawlcontenttype" and add custom Content Types inside in order to prevent unnecessary ModSecurity rules triggers.

  17. Support for Matrix / Element messenger

    Hi,

    While EMail is still the most common form for federated messaging (and very well supported by Plesk) I would appreciate if other, upcoming federated messaging platforms would also be supported. Support as a one-click-installable app would be nice, full administrative integration in Plesk (like with email) would be nicer (but not that urgent).

    In particular I would appreciate support (Server + WebClient) for (in order of preference):
    .) Matrix / Element
    .) XMPP(Jabber) / Prosody / Converse.js
    .) Mastodon

    Thanks
