Add an icon on the Websites and Domains dashboard, under Status with the other icons, that shows the status of SSL whether it is active
Add an icon on the Websites and Domains dashboard, under Status with the other icons, that shows the status of SSL whether it is active or not.
Hover over shows the Expiry date, but that is not essential. Knowing if SSL is active at a quick glance is.

Abilty to activate Zram and Zswap !
If possible the ablity to activate Zram or Zswap from the panel and monitor under server information.
I know these are easy to implement, without Plesk but would be a neat feature. These are both implemented in most Kernels now anyway and not activating at least one seems to be leaving server performance on the table.
Ability to configure Swap size and compression algo and monitor.
Default swap size 50% of Ram seems to work great as a default.

Option To Auto Add Cloudflare IPs To Fail2Ban Whitelist
Add the option to auto add Cloudflare IPs to Fail2Ban whitelist. A simple check box in the Fail2Ban management panel that will add a Cron job similar to the one described here: https://talk.plesk.com/threads/cloudflare-whitelist-scripts-for-fail2ban-and-nginx.361572/ .
This is something that will help a lot of people using Cloudflare and it's relatively easy to implement.
Thanks.1 voteThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

"Send welcome mail" by button so that admin can send login credentials to a new user by email template
As discussed in https://talk.plesk.com/threads/send-email-with-credentials-to-my-customer.369632/#post-927240 Plesk should have a button for server admins by which an admin can send a welcome mail to a user with the user's login credentials. That should be template-based with an editable template to cater for the requirements of different server providers.
It should also not be sent directly, but similar to the existing "mass mailing" function first show the proposed text in an editor window so that the admin can make additions or edit the text. Then send from there.

Allow the creation of forbidden domain names via API
Please implement an option in Plesk, which allows the administrator to create domain names, which are forbidden for creation via Plesk UI.
For example, *.example.com has been added in Plesk > Tools & Settings > Prohibited Domain Names. This limitation should apply to all users in Plesk UI, but the administrator should still be able to create *.example.com subdomains via API calls.
This will be useful when looking to automatically provide users with a free subdomain for hosting, but prevent them from creating unlimited number of *.example.com subdomain via Plesk UI.

When Nginx and Apache are used, Apache should only listen to ports 7080 and 7081 on localhost.
As discussed in https://talk.plesk.com/threads/security-attack-surface-ports-7080-and-7081.368543 security should be reinforced: When Nginx and Apache are used, Apache should only listen to ports 7080 and 7081 on localhost. When Nginx is not used, Apache should only listen to ports 80 and 443.

Add maintenance button stop customer login whiles either Plesk Support working on the server or the hosting provider!
Hello,
This would be a great feature to be added as whiles either Plesk Support is working on the server to stop customers log in to the Plesk Control Panel. This would save time for the hosting provider to update the customers and send out mass emails to the customer. Where we would have a button force all the customers to sign out with a time-out message saying the system is going down for maintenance.

Add ability to use subscription IP address for outgoing connections
Please add ability to use subscription IP address for outgoing connections. Current business logic of Plesk allows attaching domains to listen on specific IP address, but outgoing connections (invoked via PHP, for example) are going via server default gateway. It would be great to have ability to completely isolate websites/scripts from revealing the main IP of the server.

Monitor RAID and inform user on failed drives
Monitoring services is great, but when a RAID drive fails, this can also have a strong impact on operations. A failed RAID drive cannot be monitored yet. Plesk should add suitable monitoring for soft RAID and the most commonly used hardware RAID adapters like LSI or Adaptec to check the RAID status and inform users on the GUI if RAID is defective or a drive needs replacement.

Enable or disable permission to delete customers for reseller Service Plan
When configuring Reseller Service Plan, under permissions tab, there is a checkbox to enable/disable
Customer account creation
When is disabled, buttons to add a new customer, and remove customer disappear.
However, it would be good to have 2 different permission settings, one forCustomer account creationand another one forCustomer account deletionso we can allow or restrict deletion of customers even when creation is allowed.2 votes -
Bringing an option to open or close encrypted directories in the password-protected directories section.
Bringing an option to open or close encrypted directories in the domain name directory encryption section. This way, you won't have to delete the password to open the directory.
2 votesIt yet needs to be explained what opening or closing of encrypted (probably password-protected?) directories should do. If they ought not be password-protected, why not simply remove password-protection?

Read only mode for Plesk
During the upgrade of the OS on which Plesk is running, I want Plesk panel to run on read-only mode. Meaning that our clients shouldn't be able to create/add/edit any domain, mailboxes/files/etc but to "see" them it as usual.

Make video and sound files playable from File Manager
From File Manager only text files and static images can be viewed. Users with video or sound files should be able to view or listen to them in a pop-up like "Image Viewer" that already exists for images.
