  1. In Plesk File Manager, add an option to move a directory when the destination location already has a directory with the same name

    In Plesk File Manager, add an option "Overwrite existing directories" when moving a directory to a location that already has a directory with the same name.

    Right now, it is required to manually remove/rename the directory before moving.

    The option "Replace existing files" applies only to the files.

  2. Ability to set nginx additional directives for the Docker extension of Plesk permanently per domain

    It would be helpful to have a way to set nginx additional directives for the Docker extension of Plesk permanently as a function of Plesk or via the vhost_nginx.conf, instead of having to use custom scripts and cron tasks that would make sure the necessary adjustments are reapplied in a manual way.

  3. 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.

  4. Additional option for overuse policy- Overuse is allowed up to x %

    I would like to have option to set overuse policy as:

    Overuse is allowed up to x %

    - after percentage threshold is crossed then suspend and send e-mail notification
    - with ability to set up percentage freeley, but suspend when disk usage is 110 % or 130 % and so on.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Allow customers access to multiple subscriptions

    In some situations where several customers with different subscriptions will collaborate with each other, there's no way to give access to their existing accounts to all the appropriate subscriptions.

    Right now it's necessary to create new accounts for this setup, and it'd be a lot easier if one could just use the existing ones to avoid messy duplicated and allow management through AD.

  9. Custom Temporary Domain Names

    When you create a new site, you get the amazing option to generate a Temporary domain name.

    However, these are randomly generated, which makes finding your dev site difficult, especially if you have a lot of them.

    I get that you can change the domain after creation, but hopefully it won't be such a large change to the plesk code to allow you to alter the domain name at creation from "silly-lalande.90-65-15-200.plesk.page" to "(custom-website-name).90-65-15-200.plesk.page"

  10. 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.

  11. "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.

  12. 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.

  13. 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.

  14. 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 for Customer account creation and another one for Customer account deletion so we can allow or restrict deletion of customers even when creation is allowed.

  16. 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.

    The option should allow "INFO:" level entries to not be included in the backup log. Instead, only critical errors would be logged.

  18. Notification when importing a database dump file

    Please implement a warning when importing a database dump file via Plesk > Domains > example.com > Databases > Import Dump.

    The warning should state that if the "Recreate the database" field is checked, the database will be deleted and a new one with the same name will be created.

    Please provide a WHOIS lookup when viewing server/website logs. This will be helpful to determine netblocks to block rather then just IP address. In addition, it will provide an abuse email address.

  20. Check free disc space/quota query before cloning website

    Please add a check at staging if the customer has enough free disk space (either quota query or disk itself).
    We have already had a few cases where customers wanted to clone their large website and this led to the hard disk being completely full.
