Add ability ti install psa and other system databases on remote mysql server
Add ability ti install psa and other system databases on remote mysql server
3 votesSince December 2022 Plesk can be used with a centralized database server, meaning that the database server can reside on a different server or cluster. It is not necessary to operate additional nodes to use this feature, it can serve as an external database for a single Plesk installation, too. Please see https://www.plesk.com/blog/product-technology/plesk-centralized-database-network-file-system/ for details.

Backup mailbox configuration only, but no emails
In the server backup settings, there should be a setting such as backing up all the settings of the e-mail addresses and not backing up the e-mails in the mail accounts. There is no need to backup mails on servers that mostly use pop3, and because this setting is not available, backup sizes are too large.
1 voteIn automatic and manual server and subscription backups you can uncheck the "mail messages" box to exclude messages in mail boxes. This will not backup the messages but will still backup the configuration of the mailbox. The mailbox configuration can be restored afterwards by restoring the mailbox. Only the configuration will be restored in that case, not the content of the mailbox.

consecutive scheduled tasks
Would be a great feature to be able to setup a scheduled task run run after the completition of previous running task.
In this way we can setup an start hour for one task and the rest to run in chain after this.Best regards

Add the ability to add and host clients on a second drive
you guys are owned by one master company i get it dosnt make sense to use cPanel idea on hosting with /home and a second drive running /home2 but the idea is that we should still be able to add the ability to host clients off a second drive like for instance with vultr we can add block storage as a second drive and if i was using cPanel i could make new clients host off the second drive reasoning is alot of people starting or using a lower end vps or dedicated server for say storage wise would be…

Custom names for the fail2ban filters
Hello,
Currently it is not possible to set custom names for the new filters in fail2ban. They're staying in Plesk UI with their names from the filesystem. It would be nice to have an option to assign them with the custom names.1 voteFilters used by a jail file like /etc/fail2ban/jail.local must be named like the .conf file in /etc/fail2ban/filter.d. There are not custom name options in Fail2Ban for filters. The request probably means jail names, and these can already be freely chosen when creating a new jail.

Support to PostgreSQL 12.x with the Plesk obsidian.
Hello Dev team,
I would like to suggest to provide the support also for PostgreSQL 12.x for Linux.
Since we already provide the 10x would be great if we could officially also provide the 12x https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/update-notes/
14 votesPostgreSQL 8.4 - 12 have been officially tested with Plesk. PostgreSQL 12 is supported.
https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012398553-PostgreSQL-support-in-Plesk
Newer PostgreSQL versions may not have been officially tested and approved as of this status entry, but should all work anyway.

Add an staging option similar to the WP-Toolkit one for other CMS systems and applications
Would be great to have an option to create a staging site for other CMS/Applications, similar to what is offered in WP-Toolkit for WordPress.
For example for Shopware, etc
2 votesIt will not be possible to add such an option to all popular software, as there are too many different applications used in too many different scenarios. Instead, Plesk already includes "website copying" and "website import" functions that make it very easy to clone an existing installation to another domain or subdomain. Exporting and importing a database is also available and very easy to use. Please choose these options if you want to clone a website.
I you are looking at a functionality like the WP Toolkit for other software, Plesk has a free API for extensions, so that the vendors of the software packages can provide their own toolkits to manage their software.
