Change WPTK target instance name when copying an instance
When using the WPTK "copy data" feature, it also overwrites the name of the target instance with that of the source instance. This causes both target and source instances to have the same name, which causes confusion in other operations.
Is it possible to prevent the "copy data" feature from updating the target instance's name, or remove the instance names from the UI altogether?

Add global option to control default value of "Search Indexing Enabled" and "Debugging" for newly created site
We've WordPress development company and use Plesk for managing lots of staging servers for projects under development.
All domains are created automatically via API as part of the project's start process, and, of course, all instances that are under development should not be indexed during the development stage (as it will affect the page index of the site in production).
By default, "Search Indexing" option is enabled, and this is quite inconvenient and error prone for us (as it requires manual setup of the created instance).
Adding global server-wide configuration option for WP Toolkit that will control such default behavior…2 votese will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Retrieve the WordPress password and admin username of the customer
We'd like to auto-deploy some wordpress instances on our Plesk server. I've tested the Wordpress Toolkit, and it works great, but I have one problem : The Wordpress admin password isn't sent to the customer.
I know that we can read the password from the Plesk Interface, but I'd like our users to get their wordpress password without having them to log on into Plesk.
Please implement any solution to send the Wordpress password to the customer, e.g to get it trough the API call or to be able to sent the email notification directly from Plesk.

Add support to the WordPress Toolkit for sites with different "WordPress URL" and "Site URL" settings
The WordPress settings has an option for the WordPress URL and the Site URL to be different - i.e. the WordPress site files are in a sub-directory. But sites in this configuration do not work properly in the WordPress Toolkit.
Given this is a core feature of WordPress and one used by a lot of sites, I think support for it in the WordPress Toolkit should be a priority.
Details from WordPress about this option:

Add option to select default TLD for staging
Currently, WP Toolkit offers possibility to add a subdomain prefix for staging.
So, considering the main domain is "domain.tld", WP toolkit offers "staging.domain.tld" as an option.
We use a slightly different scheme, and it our setup our staging will looks like "domain.review" (note "review" instead of tld).
It will be nice to specify default staging tld (as it currently implemented for "staging" subdomain) and have possibility to use such scheme of the staging (instead of selecting the domain from the list manually)
