Allow specifying of ports to open in firewall during certificate generation process to open and close again automatically
allow for specific ports to be opened when securing/ressecuring Let's Encrypt SSL certs.
For example, Lets Encrypt needs several ports open in order to reissue SSL so have a field to enter the ports to open when re issuing the SSL.

Create a BIND-independent SSL It! mode
As of now SSL It! requires an active BIND (DNS) service to function, as it relies on DNS validation to issue and renew certificates. This dependency is hardcoded into the extension’s logic to ensure compatibility with certificate providers like Let’s Encrypt and to maintain secure, automated certificate management.
The idea is to allow for this feature to be able to disable this hardcoded logic, which requires active BIND service to update the DNS in certificates.

restart cookie expiration time of 2FA (Google Authenticator) after a successful login
It is already possible to have the cookie of the 2FA login expire after n days. But for admins who work on many servers, this still causes unnecessary extra work once that time frame expires. Because then they will be prompted to enter the 2FA code again, and this happens on all the servers they operate. It adds up to a lot of wasted work time.
Instead, the cookie expiration could be reset to n days after each successful login. Example: A user sets the expiration to 90 days, but on day 81 the user logs in without having to…

Add option to hide DKIM management
We haven an external DNS cluster and an external customer panel in which customers can manage things like DNS records etc.
We have implemented a function through which we can let the customer enable DKIM through the external panel, which enables it on the Plesk server, retrieves the key, and adds the key to the zone on the DNS cluster
In order to avoid conflicts and confusion we would like to hide the DKIM settings in Plesk for the customer on the subscription level.

Block new extensions to be installed during Plesk Upgrades
Add the possibility of switching off any new default extension to be installed automatically during the Plesk Upgrade process without the need of blacklist this explicitly one by one but to block all new extensions installations entirely.

Usage of "Quick Preview" DNS should be made more clear.
The fact that Plesk must be the DNS server for the "Quick Preview on a domain in Plesk" option should be underlined and more prominent in the interface. The necessity of a Wildcard SSL cert should be clearer too. That would help your clients and avoid some tickets to Plesk support.

Support for HTTP/2 on apache (without using nginx as proxy)
Hi,
It seems some Plesk users would like to have support for HTTP/2 on apache directly (without using nginx as a proxy).
We do not clearly understand cases when it is required. Why using nginx as a proxy in front of the Apache is not an option? Could you please let us know how this feature should work in terms of workflow, in your opinion? We welcome any feedback and would be happy to receive examples to investigate the question in more detail.5 votesThank you for your idea. Could you tell us which scenarios you want to enable with this functionality?

Dark Mode across channels
Having a consistent viewing experience across channels would be appreciated, going from dark to white is not easy on the eyes. Unifying preferences to automatically adapt across channels(feature requests, support, updates...) would improve overall experience.

Add SMIMEA Record in DNS
Add the SMIMEA record in the DNS-system.
This is required for encrypted email communication.There is no need to set up an automatic system, just the option to create an individual record.
The 63-character restriction must be removed, otherwise the hash of the address is too long and will be rejected.

Cloudflare records exclusions
A very cool feature would be to exclude individual records in the zone from sync / export to Cloudflare and the choice by auto-update to only update / create records without removing whole Cloudflare zone.
In my particular scenario I am serving mts-sts. via Cloudflare worker. Everytime Plesk update DNS zone on Cloudflare the particular mta-sts. record is deleted. This record can not be created in Plesk, because it is a worker trigger.

include panel.ini in server backups
The idea behind this feature is to have the panel.ini configuration file included in server backups, allowing it to be restored if it's accidentally modified or an issue occurs. Saving time and if the changes are not remembered fully.

Laravel ToolKit: Creation of deployment script before first deployment. On the "Install Application" screen.
When I deploy a Laravel application to Plesk, I always use the Laravel ToolKit extension. I follow all the steps outlined in the documentation to install my application. However, at the end of the deployment process, I still need to go to the extension's Node tab and run the npm install and npm run build commands. It would be nice if there was an option to implement a deployment script on the "Install Application" screen, as this would reduce the amount of configuration that would need to be done in the Plesk panel.
There is a similar option in the…

add time-expiring fail2ban whitelist entries
Please add the ability to add IP addresses to a temporary whitelist with an expiration option. Occasionally, customers may need to troubleshoot issues (e.g., verifying their mail account credentials) after being banned by Fail2Ban. To prevent them from being immediately banned again, we whitelist them temporarily. However, over time, if you forget to remove them, the whitelist grows indefinitely. It would be beneficial if these entries could automatically expire and remove themselves after a set period.

Add IP Address and "non-existent mailbox" to plesk_saslauthd Authentication Logs
In the "maillog" program logs, which contain "server plesk_saslauthd" entries, the IP addresses are not recorded. During brute force attacks from multiple IPs, there are failed login attempts to non-existent mailboxes. While these attacks don't pose a direct threat, they consume server resources and could become dangerous if they target existing mailboxes.
I request that IP addresses be added to the "server plesk_saslauthd" logs, along with information about non-existent mailboxes, to improve filtering through fail2ban.
Current log:
Sep 20 08:14:00 server plesk_saslauthd[117757]: failed mail authentication attempt for user 'example@domain.com' (password len=14)Suggested log:

Official support for DMARC report sending from a Plesk server
The ability to send DMARC reports to a designated mailbox in relation to emails that have undergone and failed a DMARC check while being sent to mailboxes on a Plesk server is not enabled by default and is generally not a feature that Plesk supports officially yet. It would be helpful to have this feature supported by Plesk

OpenSSH server support in Plesk for Windows
SFTP (FTP over SSH protocol) Support would come in handy for users who want a more secure way to transfer their files to and from their hosting account. We, as a hosting company, have received many requests for a more secure way to handle file transfers than the classic FTP(S) protocol on Windows Server.
Newer versions of Windows have built-in OpenSSH server functionality, I think it would be nice to integrate this in the Plesk end-user Panel in a way that users can use SFTP with their account username and (maybe?) configure SSH keys for their accounts for a more…
