  5. 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.

    In 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.

  6. 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

    Since 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.

  9. 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…

  11. 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.

    The statistics page shows the total traffic in the right box labelled "Traffic".  More statistics are available from the selected statistics package, e.g. AWStats that can be selected from the "Hosting Settings" page of a domain. This also shows the number of visitors per day and other useful data.

  18. 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

    It 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.
