Add PHP shmop extension support useful for Wordpress performance and site health
When you run the Wordpress Helath Check under Wordpress Tools menù and you run a Plesk server you will get the following alert:
You should allow inter-process communication Performance
You should consider using shared memory (PHP shmop) to allow inter-process communication.Could I suggest to add the PHP shmop support?
I'm running PHP 8.3 and I'm not sure to use SSH command to try to get this extension working, will be nice if in the future this can be integrated in Plesk as ... today Wordpress is a very used CMS and we want always to have good performance.Thank…

Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
Meanwhile, if you want to try to install shmop yourself, these are the general steps (provided here without warranty, try it on a test server before applying it to your production system):
1) Install Plesk PHP development package:
For RPM-based OS (CentOS, RHEL, CloudLinux):
# yum install plesk-php83-devel
For Debian-based OS (Debian, Ubuntu):
# apt install plesk-php83-dev build-essential
2) Check what's the currrent version of your PHP 8.0
# /opt/plesk/php/8.3/bin/php -v
3) Download PHP source based on the version of the step 2
For example:
# wget https://www.php.net/distributions/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Please pay special attention that the version matches the one determined in step 2!
4) Extract the .tar file of the PHP downloaded
# tar -xvjf /root/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Again, the version shown here…

Is it possible to ship plesk php versions with ZTS enabled?
The PLESK php versions are compiled without ZTS which makes it impossible to install the pthreads extension to utilize threading. In some scenarios this is a problem because there are actually long running scripts which would benefit from threading due to how php releases memory with it's garbage collector and also it would help reduce load as currently all php scripts run single threaded utilizing the cores fully without being able to split the load over the multicore cpu.

Trigger to update PECL extensions automatically by Plesk
In recent Plesk versions it is now possible to manage PECL extensions for PHP directly in Plesk. However we need a method to keep such PECL extensions up-to-date, either with some sort of trigger or event handler.

Dedicated PHP FPM Handler - Chrooted Environment
Actually, the fpm dedicated handler would be perfect for a native PHP FPM jail to get rid of
open_basedir(cause of disabled realpath_cache).It would be great to get an option to enable "PHP Chrooted Mode" if dedicated handler is set.
Benefits:
* Native Chrooted FPM-Handler
* Active Realpath Cache (open_basedir could be safely disabled)
* Massive Performance Improvement for any PHP based web app
* More security, because fpm handles the jail instead of php.ini
Template / Config Changes:
PHP-FPM Config
Set "chroot" Option inside generated fpm pool config:
/var/www/vhosts/system/<domain>/etc/php-fpm.confchroot = /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/ chdir = /Apache & NGINX:…

PHP 8 - HEIC ImageMagick 7 support
As HEIC is the default format for photos on iOs devices, il would be great to be able to upload heic images on website and to work with using php.
It is not possible, and acceptable, to ask to final user to convert there images to jpg before uploading. Most of them will not understand about what we are talking.
As I understand heic is already supported by ImageMagick, il is just an option to trigger when compiling.

Manage PHP-FPM status path and additional PHP-FPM settings globally
For our monitoring environment we want to use the pm.status_path, ping.path and ping.response settings for all PHP-FPM pools globally.
At the moment the only way to set these settings is by adding the following in Domain -> PHP Settings -> Additional configuration directives:
[php-fpm-pool-settings]
pm.status_path = /php-fpm-status
ping.path = /php-fpm-ping
ping.response = pongUnfortunately there is no way to set this globally, not by changing the plan nor by utilizing event handlers (because we're unable to set this through /usr/local/psa/bin/php_settings -u).
I've also been unable to find the template for the PHP-FPM pool settings, so also unable to change this…

Add the ability to limit selection of PHP handlers for customers
We've had a similar suggestion before with insufficient information: https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/34209229-add-php-handlers-restriction-per-service-plan
The idea is to be able to limit the number of available PHP handlers for selection at domain PHP settings.
This may be done at Service Plan X > Permissions.
Example: customer will be able to select only FPM server by Nginx.
This will allow the ability for more precise configuration.
Based on the support request.

PHP Openssl extension customization
