  1. Apache Settings as Service Plan - Addons

    It would be really great if we could add Apache Settings to our Service Plan Addons ...
    So for example we could simply make an Addon "modgzip", "modgeoip", "mod_whatever" - add it to the Customers requesting it and we are all set ...

  2. nginx - full support for nginx.conf

    In Plesk (Onyx) you can use "Additional nginx directives". Its said: "Your directives will override the server-wide nginx configuration."

    That quote is not right, because in nginx.conf plesk write:

    location ~ ^/(.*.(ac3|avi|bmp|bz2|css|cue|dat|doc|docx|dts|eot|exe|flv|gif|gz|htm|html|ico|img|iso|jpeg|jpg|js|mkv|mp3|mp4|mpeg|mpg|ogg|pdf|png|ppt|pptx|qt|rar|rm|svg|swf|tar|tgz|ttf|txt|wav|woff|woff2|xls|xlsx|zip))$ {
    tryfiles $uri @fallback;
    }
    include "/var/www/vhosts/system/cdn.example.com/conf/vhost
    nginx.conf";

    That means that every setting for static files is not working. Example: I set in "Additional nginx directives" this line

    location ~* /myfolder1/(a|b|c)/ { .... }

    and destination is a static file, this code will never execute. EXCEPT for static files with uppercase file-types like "image.PNG" because here is a issue in nginx.conf, that catch only lowercased files, because…

  3. Combine multiple 301 redirects

    I recently updated to Onyx 17.5.3.

    In the hosting settings for each domain i can enable a 301 redirect to HTTPS and i can set a 301 redirect for the preferred domain.

    Great features, but the SEO boys are complaining... Apperently Google does not like multiple redirects.

    Please combine multiple 301 redirects.

  4. DNS / redirect sanity

    Hi,

    I'm quite sure licensing was counted (per domain) for domainnames that had hosting and/or redirection.

    Apparently it counts subscriptions now. Many of our subscriptions are only for DNS. Not that it matters much to us directly, unlimited license anyways, but this could bite...

    More importantly, I'm quite sure I used to be able to create a subscription, NOT enable webhosting (and mailhosting), point the A record to another webserver. Create an alias. Have the alias point to plesk by default (it copies the A record now, even though DNS sync is OFF ... it should use the DNS template…

  5. Erlang/Elixir support via CGI

    Currently I can't find a way to serve Erlang/Elixir applications using a limited Plesk account. Nginx and apache fully support this via CGI.

  8. Plesk should support popular CMS NGINX vhost.

    Plesk should support popular CMS NGINX vhost. When user add a new domain and NGINX ONLY webserver, they should be able to select which CMS they use. And Plesk will automatically change NGINX vhost depends on the CMS user choose.

    Currently I change NGINX default vhost template for Drupal CMS, so everytime I add a Drupal website I dont have to change its vhost file AND execute "chattr +i" to immutable the file because if I dont do that Plesk will rewrite every vhost file with its default vhost template (very annoying).

    Plesk should learn from VestaCP which already has…

  13. Don't copy default website to website doc root, use Apache's No Index location instead

    Currently when a website is created Plesk copies the default website files to the document root for that website.

    This has two issues in my opinion: 1 the user has to delete those files to start (not a big issue but would be nice if they didn't have to go through that step), and 2 when they delete those files they then get the default Apache2 Test Page, which at this point defeats the point of having default website files copied.

    I believe a better solution would be to change the No Index Apache location to a location that Plesk…

    Since PEAR is more or less obsolete and Plesk 12.5 introduces PHP Composer support, we do not believe that we should spend our time and resources on supporting PEAR. We suggest everyone to switch to PHP Composer. If you want to discuss this, please use our forums (forum.odin.com). Thanks.

  16. nginx svgz support

    .svgz files are compressed vector graphics.
    When not inlining SVG it is often suggested to compress svg files in advance. This is the common svgz format.

    But nginx does not deliver .svgz files correctly, because svgz files are not correctly encoded by nginx.
    Plesk should add this by default:
    location ~ .svgz$ {
    add_header Content-Encoding gzip;
    }

    This is also a known generic nginx issue. For example: https://github.com/h5bp/server-configs-nginx/issues/86

  18. Additional directive disappears

    In relation to the https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000180225-Additional-PHP-directives-disappeared, based on my ticket request.

    Please add the non-destructive inheritance for the "Additional-PHP-directives" box, from service level plan to the domain level.

    Right now, any directive on a non-locked domain will be erased whenever a service plan changes.

  19. Allow Suspend mode in Process Model - Idle Time-out Action at IIS 8.5

    IIS on Windows Server 2008 R/2012 provides the administrator with the option of timing out a worker process that is idle for a specified period of time. This is a good option for sites that are not accessed very often because it frees up system resources when the site is idle. The disadvantage is that the next time the site is accessed, the user will need to wait for the worker process to start again.

    In IIS 8.5 and later, the administrator has the option of suspending an idle worker process rather than terminating it. A suspended worker process remains…
