Lots of customers simply have no idea they are still using an older, deprecated PHP version, while newer ones are available. It would be nice if Plesk could send them a notification, like it does now for APS application updates and WordPress application updates.
2 votesSince Plesk Onyx 17.8 all PHP version older than 5.6 are highlighted by red color as ‘Outdated’ in Plesk interface.

Option to deploy Watchdog extension via CLI with custom monitoring settings
Option to deploy Watchdog extension via CLI with custom monitoring settings
It would be really helpful for a Plesk Administrator the possibility to configure Watchdog extension via CLI with custom monitoring settings. This would save a lot of time and would allow to easy implement a standard monitoring system on a set of Plesk servers.
1 voteYou can configure your monitoring settings in fir /usr/local/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/monitrc in CLI and create your own customized configs as you want. Do not forget restart service with /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modules/watchdog/wd
-restart after that.

Made Let's Encrypt extension page more informative
https://localhost:8443/modules/letsencrypt/ is a perfect place to display all domains and emails associated with the certificates and allow to modify them in bulk.
6 votesThe Let's Encrypt extension has been replaced by SSLIt extension a long while ago. Lately, since the beginning of 2023, the SSLIt extension received a makeover and now includes an informative SSL certificate overview page.

Option to enable/disable individual Scheduled Tasks (Cron Job)
Like with the Firewall Rules Configuration where it is possible to enable/disable individual rules without having to delete them and add them as and when needed it would be nice to have the option to enable/disable individual Cron Jobs in the Scheduled Tasks screen.
In a cron file this would simply be accomplished by commenting out that line, which can be useful when rules need to be temporarily enabled or disabled but you don't want to loose any of their configuration in the process.
2 votesEvery scheduled task has a checkbox "Active" as the first configuration option on the task configuration dialog. You can simply check or uncheck that checkbox to enable or disable the task. In addition to that checkbox, in the list of all tasks, the tasks has a green or grey icon that indicates whether the task is active or inactive. You can also click on that icon to toggle the status of a task.

language packs should be available at no cost with every license
I was surprised when noticed that Plesk does not provide language packs out-of-the-box and asks for additional money for it. Really?
Localization is a part of the basic functionality or it should be so. Web host edition license with 1 language available is a nonsense!
Make language packs available at no cost with every license.
1 voteHello and thanks for reaching out to us,
Localization is basic functionality indeed, so Plesk Administrator can pick any of provided 32 languages as their server language at no additional cost. People in each of those regions are equal in their ability to access Plesk. So seems like your request is already available.
Plesk does charge however for the availability of multiple languages when some users would use one language and others would use different language or languages. That would be a different case as it allows Plesk Administrator to get an additional audience from different countries and/or cultures and earn additional revenue. This option comes at a reasonable cost which helps us cover expenses for professional translations which are kind of expensive. Unlike some other solutions, Plesk doesn’t use poor quality machine translations or community translations. We hope that proper translation would make sufficient comfort for end-customers to justify…

Save Prompt on Login
One of the most devastating things with Plesk is when you spend 10 minutes coding something, press Save, and you need to Login again. All your unsaved work is lost. I would really appreciate some sort of "You are logged out, do you want to leave the Page?" prompt.
1 voteJust go to Tools&Settings > Session Idle Time and increase Session idle time there.

Show plesk version number in header or footer
Whenever I have trouble using Plesk (mainly because I can't find where to change a certain setting) and I want to google it, I want to include the Plesk version number in the Google search because sometimes the answers depend on that very much. However each and every time I'm asking myself the same question: Which plesk panel version am I looking at?
I'd like if it said "plesk 12" instead of just "plesk" in the upper left corner, or maybe it could be added in the footer where it says "© 2015 Parallels IP Holdings GmbH. All rights reserved".…
1 voteWhen you go to Home > System Overview you can see Plesk version there.

Add ability to add system settings shortcut buttons to main navigation (Under Server management)
Add ability to custom select frequently used system settings and provide access via navigation buttons in the main left-hand navigation (Under Server Management) group perhaps.
This way frequently used system settings can be accessed quickly e.g. Backup Manager, Stats, Scheduled Tasks and Migration/Transfers etc. without scanning through the comprehensive Tools & Settings page.
1 voteJust use “Custom Buttons” feature with “Common Access” location. It will add shortcuts of your frequently used system settings to left-hand navigation panel.
