  1. Allow setting MAILFROM field in crons from Plesk Interface

    When a customer adds a cronjob within the Plesk interface through "Scheduled tasks", they can set the recipient (MAILTO field) of the cron with the "Send notifications to" field, but there is no option to set the sender (MAILFROM field). By default, the sender for crondaemon is user@server.tld, which in our case causes SPF errors with the receiving mail server of the recipient.

    We do not give our clients CLI access, so they cannot manually set it with the crontab -e command, nor should they (the whole point of the Plesk Interface is for GUI-style ease of use). Could…

    Thank you for your idea and your additional explanation. As the use case is probably an edge case, we'll need to see whether many other users believe that this is an important feature that they need.

    If you believe it is an important feature, please continue voting for this feature request.

  2. Encrypt mysql connections

    In https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/32881723 the database connections from a Plesk server to an elsewhere hosted database was added, but we also want encrypted connections from a client or other server to databases hosted on the Plesk server.

    Example: An ERP system hosts its data on a centralized MySQL database on the Plesk server. Between the clients and the server all such data is currently transmitted in plain text through the Internet. Instead this data should be encrypted, because normally such data contains personal information such as names, addresses.

  3. add user input context to password validator

    Please PLEASE please use https://zxcvbn-ts.github.io/zxcvbn/guide/user-input/ because otherwise using zxcvbn makes little sense.

    according to https://zxcvbn-ts.github.io/zxcvbn/guide/languages/ polish is supported language so it'd be great if polish langauge was used.

  5. Add a snapshot of the current processes list to existing CPU / memory usage exceeded emails

    The Monitoring extension already triggers email notifications when resource usage exceeds the allocations, but if usage has already settled before you notice these emails and click through to the server, it's difficult to find which domain was the cause.

    Adding a snapshot of the current processes list to these emails when it's the CPU or memory usage thresholds that have been exceeded would be very useful. Potentially just the "Domains only" filtered list would suffice. Maybe trimmed to the top 50 or so processes ordered by CPU or memory, whichever is appropriate at the time.

  7. Add unique identifier to login event parameters

    Currently the user login/logout event only gives a contact name as event parameter. This is not a unique identifier since multiple users can have the same contact name. In the psa log_actions database table the username is saved. Please also add the username to the event parameters so there's a unique identifier which user logged in our out.

    Reference: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/administrator-guide/server-administration/event-parameters-passed-by-event-handlers.67897/#plesk-user-logged-in

    Not sure about the category, so please replace if there's a better place for this suggestion.

  8. Resource usage report per Service plan

    Please implement an option in Plesk to generate a resource usage report per Service plan.

    For example, the report in Tools & Settings > Summary Report could have a section that provides the usage data per Service plan.

  9. Empty .trash folder even if it contains read-only/write-only files

    When the .trash folder contains read-only directories or files, it cannot be emptied with the "Emtpy Recycle Bin" button of "File Manager". Instead it throws errors that Linux "rm" cannot access the files or directories for removal.

    As these files and directories are in the trash folder, I propose to delete such files anyway as otherwise a user without console access or limited knowledge (such as using FTP to change file permissions, if that is possible at all for the FTP user account) can't ever remove such files.

  11. Advisor that finds the cause for high CPU usage automatically

    My server sometimes suffers from or even crashes from high CPU usage. I'd like to have an advisor like the Security Advisor, but for automatically telling me which service or website causes the high cpu usage. It would be best if that advisor could also check webserver logs automatically, if it finds that for example the PHP cpu load is high in a website.

  12. Show upper level restrictions upon service plan

    Some method that automatically reflects upper level restrictions in reseller's own service plans; meaning that such reseller doesn't need to contact the server administrator to guess what exactly was restricted to him.

  15. Allow Plesk Domain Cert to Renew if there are abandoned Domain Aliases

    If a domain alias is abandon or missing its DNS A record, the Main Plesk Domain's Cert will fail to renew until the record is resolved.
    This is an issue for Plesk Servers that are running hundreds of aliases that often get abandoned.

  18. Ability to change certificate repository for a Subscription via the Plesk GUI

    On a Plesk server that uses one main domain and many subdomains (over 1000) as separate Subscriptions, I find it necessary to have the option to change the certificate repository that the subdomains use easily.

  19. Ability to disable "Forgot your password" in Plesk log in screen

    There are cases when the account information has been leaked, so password reminders and login functions can cause security breaches.
    Therefore, it would be good to have the possibility to manage log-in screen functionality in Plesk. For example, hide "Forgot your password" (and show it when it is required).

  20. Prohibit user from deleting domains

    Hello,
    Another customer's domain names were accidentally erased from his control panel, according to us. Please give us a choice to prevent this from occurring again. Alternatively, provide us access to a internal ticket system, which requires staff approval.

    Thank you for your idea. When deleting a domain, a clear warning an confirmation dialog is displayed. Domains are only deleted when that additional dialog is confirmed. https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/41416156-delete-domain 

    Nevertheless, we'll consider adding a feature that users won't be permitted to delete domains at all, if this request becomes popular.
