  1. Add an ability to encode parameters sent in custom button URL

    Currently, parameters passed to the custom button URL are put there in plain text (even FTP user password).
    As the custom button URL is using GET request, the parameters can be easily replaced by anyone which is not secure and doesn't allow using custom buttons for logging customers into a third-party service (e.g. billing).
    Please consider implementing an option to securely encode URL parameters so only the receiving side can decode them.

  2. Automatically add new Obsidian release to mirror repository

    Plesk Obsidian is released in the following way:
    PSA_ 18.0.21
    PSA_ 18.0.23
    PSA_ 18.0.24
    ...
    Currently, if local repository is used each new version has to be added manually. Automatic synchronization would be a nice feature.

  3. One license for HA setup

    It would be nice if it is possible to use the same single license in a high available cluster.
    Technically only one machine is really in use, so why we have to use multiple licenses?

  4. Add a possibility to convert existing domains like 'sub.example.com' to subdomains of 'example.com'

    If for some reason 'sub.example.com' was added to Plesk as domain the wildcard certificate for 'example.com' doesn't cover it and it is required to issue separate certificates. Please add an ability to convert existing domains like 'sub.example.com' to subdomains of 'example.com'.

  5. Ability to manage "Smart static files processing" option via Service plan

    It would be good to add the ability to manage "Smart static files processing" option through Service plan settings. Since this option is enabled by default, it might affect some applications.

  7. make possible to automatically add a sender whose message was marked as spam to the server blacklist and vice verse

    When a user is marking a message as spam, a sender of this message is added to the server blacklist and is removed from the whitelist.
    If a user is marking a message "not a spam" (moving from spam folder to the inbox), the sender of this message is removed from the server blacklist and then added to the server whitelist.

  8. Edit WordPress notification text

    Text notifications are hard-coded in WP file /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/modules/wp-toolkit/resources/locales/en-US.php:
    +++
    'common.error.wp-cli.timeout' => 'WordPress Toolkit was not able to finish running an operation on this site in %%timeout%% seconds, so the operation was terminated. This could mean that your WordPress installation might be infected with malware. Check the wp-config.php file of the installation for potential malware code or run an anti-virus scan. If you cannot find any traces of malware, try running the operation again later.',
    +++

    It is not possible to edit parameters "<suspicious_instance_text>" and "<suspicious_instance_details_info>" under Plesk > Tools & Settings > Notification > WordPress installation is quarantined

  9. Ability to show which IP addresses are used by other domains in the pulldown list at Web Hosting Access

    If the account has multiple domains, it is possible to set a dedicated IP belonging to that account among several domains, but in some cases you may want to allocate one IP to one domain. (E.g. when setting reverse DNS lookup)

    Currently, the pulldown list at domains>%domain name%>Web Hosting Access displays both free IP and the IP used in other domains by the same account, but it is not possible to understand whether it is used by other domains or not.
    Suggest to add the possibility to indicate which IP addresses are already used by other domains in the pulldown…

  11. Allow customers to change Document root with out allowing them to manage the domain name

    Service plans should be more granular, it should be possible to allow the customer to change the Document root without allowing them to manage the domain name, etc.

    Basically the objective would be to have split the "Domains management" permission.

  12. Add CLI for managing Scheduled Tasks to be able to create multiple tasks at once

    In Plesk, there is no CLI for managing scheduled tasks. Thus, if it's necessary to create multiple scheduled tasks, it's required to create them one-by-one in GUI.
    CLI for managing scheduled tasks will allow creating multiple scheduled tasks by invoking a CLI utility in a script.

  15. When installing extensions, after install, 3rd party repos should remain disabled

    When installing extensions on Plesk Obsidian, those sometimes enables 3rd party repos like Epel.
    It's also possible that those 3rd party repos have newer versions of system packages that breaks the functionality (for example: the well known non-working AWStats from Epel on Plesk).
    It should be able to disable 3rd party repos after the extension install, and re-enable them and limit its usage to the extension update/install only, so no other packages are updated.

  17. Wildcard for [ip] blacklist in panel.ini

    It would be nice if it is possible to make wildcard-entries in the panel.ini to hide IP addresses. (https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/administrator-guide/59410/)

    actually we need to list any IP for some networks, expecially for the docker networks (the default-address-pools should be hidden).

    [ip]
    blacklist="172.17.0.0/16,192.168.0.0/24"

  18. When Plesk user login/logout must contain more information in Event Manager

    in Event Manager, we can select parameter of "Username" only when user login failed and select parameter of "contact name" only when user completely login/logout. Users is asking me that why we didn't use the same variable (Username or contact name, and I preferred username) and more information should be added for security issue (eq. IP Address)

  19. Better email notifications management through CLI

    Improve the email notifications management through CLI using the "plesk bin notification" command.

    As of now, there are plenty of notifications that can be easily managed in Plesk GUI while it is not possible through that command making it quite hard to manage as the ones that can not be managed through the command itself, need to be modified directly on the Plesk database while in Plesk GUI all (or almost) the notifications are unified under Tools & Settings > Notifications
