  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. Add permissions for ModSecurity like WordPress

    WordPress has permissions at the subscription and service plan level that allow controlling customer's access to it individually.

    There should be similar options for ModSecurity without having to disable all the hosting settings with the Hosting Management Settings permission.

  3. Add a "Service Plan" column in the Subscriptions list

    We absolutely miss a "Service Plan" column in the Subscriptions list.
    This is very annoying not knowing which Service Plan a Subscription is using.

  4. Make the navigation tree adjustable in width.

    I use nested folders on my site. The navigation tree does not have sufficient width to show them without constantly moving the bottom slider. Either the ability to drag the vertical scroll or a 'setting' would be extremely useful.

  5. store customers and resellers data on different disks depending on the amount of space

    It would be great if Plesk could store customers and resellers data on different disks depending on the amount of space they use.

  6. Please support OpenLDAP in Plesk

    I am looking into options on how to use LDAP with mail users in Plesk domains. So Postfix+Dovecat config in Plesk should support OpenLDAP, and Plesk should also allow to setup, configure and administer an OpenLDAP server on a per-domain basis.

  7. Show password protected directories in the overview of websites

    Show password protected directories in the overview of websites. A key symbol would be very cool to show websites, which are protected.

  8. 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.

  9. Add "Activate account by e-mail" option to the command adding customer via CLI

    There is no option "Activate account by e-mail" while adding customer with command like below:
    plesk bin customer --create JDoe -name "John Doe" -passwd sample -country US -notify false
    No such option in:
    # plesk bin customer --help

    Please consider adding this parameter to CLi.

  10. Implement Alert System for nginx Service Failures in Plesk

    Introduce a feature in Plesk to automatically detect and notify administrators through Plesk panel (if accessible) and email alerts when the nginx service fails to start or encounters any issues to ensure immediate awareness and prompt resolution.

  13. 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.

  14. consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.

    It would be great that plesk repair db checks the consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.

    This can be reproduced by adding some additional php directives via Plesk UI for example.com domain and then removing them from table PhpSettingsCustom via plesk db command.

  15. An option to change 'from' field in Plesk email notifications when using MSMTP

    Currently, it's possible to change the 'from' field in Plesk email notifications only when Postfix or Qmail is installed. The change cannot be applied when using MSMTP.

    Please implement an option in Plesk to change the 'from' field in email notifications when using MSMTP.

  17. Installation of TYPO3 and Toolkit similar to WP Toolkit

    Our customers wish to install TYPO3 websites after buying an abonnement through WHMCS or the Plesk panel and have a toolkit where they can manage their TYPO3 installations from a panel like WP Toolkit. I searched through all feature suggestions but I didn't find a suggestion. You should be able:
    - to rollout TYPO3 installations
    - to manage all your TYPO3 installation
    - to update your TYPO3 installation
    - to stage/test their TYPO3 installation
    - to remove your TYPO3 installation
    - to reinstall your TYPO3 installation

  18. 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.

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
