Enable "Compatible With" field in Worpress Theme and Plugin
This is an important update without which you can not guarantee the installation of themes and plugins in compatible versions, causing rework.
Each version of a plugin or theme is compatible with a range of versions of Wordpress and other plugins that are used together to provide the features declared by the developer of a given plugin or theme.
At a first moment you can add the fields below in the "Upload Pugin" or "Upload Theme" screen:
Wordpress Minimum Version
Wordpress Maximum Version
These values can be used in the "Install Wordpress" screen to validate the versions being used in…6 votesThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases, if it will be popular.

WooCommerce Staging Process (cloning without overwriting Woocommerce content)
WooCommerce = at least 1/3 of ALL e-commerce websites use WooCommerce.
Can Plesk please make a process that works EASY for people to do the following on a WP and WooCommerce site:
Live site > Clone to Stage site > Copy to Live site
The issue is customers, orders, and products on the Live site can't be replaced/over-written, etc when you copy back to live site.
THIS PROCESS WOULD MAKE MONEY for Plesk, as for some reason, it doesn't exist anywhere, that I know of.
Please implement it :)

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 Smart Update to a Service Plan
I would like to be able to add the Smart Updates feature to a specific service plan.
It wouldn’t be activated for all new installations just the users of a specific plan.
I would buy 30 sites of Smart Updates for WPT. If the new customer chooses the 'starter' plan they don't get the Smart Update, if they choose the 'super' plan then they get Smart Update for free. Free meaning it would be deducted from my quantity of sites purchased. Then it would automatically activate on their account.
I love the functionality of Smart Updates and want to make…

Improve WP-Toolkit "Sort by" mechanim
At this moment, whenever a WP site is synced, the appearance of an instance at the top of the list is expected in any sort. This was done in order to make it easier to find an instance in the list.
This means the "Sort by" URL mechanism is not being respected, this change is considered a point of improvement to not cause damage to people relying on the "sort by" mechanism to distinguish their instances.

Add the possibility to customize the WordPress Toolkit Set to install WP in a custom directory
Add the possibility to customize the WordPress Toolkit Set to install WP in a custom directory (e.g., “/wp”) instead of installing it in the root folder (httpdocs)
Reason: The automatic WP installation performed via a WordPress Toolkit Set through a Hosting Plan would work fine if the customer’s current site is not built on WP or another php-based platform, but will fail and mess up their current site if their domain already contains a WP or php-based installation at the root level.

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.
