Add a feature wizard / feature showcase for feature on updates
TL;DR: This is a feature request for adding a feature wizard/showcase (for lack of a better name) to Plesk. Something that simply let's administrators choose whether they want to enable the new features that have become available when a Plesk update has been installed.
Detailed use case:
Currently, often new features are enabled by default when a Plesk update gets installed on existing Plesk installations. This is not always desirable and can cause confusion with Plesk server administrators. For example administrators might not want to enable new features directly as they become available because they want to familiarize themself with the feature first. Which…6 votesThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Limit maximum crontab frequency and preventing cronjobs pile-up
Plesk administrator should be able to limit the maximum crontab frequency allowed for user's crontab (example: deny the creation of cronjob that run more often than once in 5 minutes)
Crontab pile-up should be prevented, so a user can't run a cron job if the same job isn't finished yet.
1 voteThank you for your idea.
For the time being, please consider that a script that is started via cronjob, should check itself if another instance of the same script is already running, if there is a risk that a further instance causes problems. Crontab cannot check that.
Also, please be aware that users are not bound to repeat actions in a script in a while-loop. They can easily start a script every 10 minutes, yet let it run over and over again by just putting their content into a while-loop, maybe even wait a few seconds after each iteration. So limiting them to create cronjobs for only every n minutes will not keep users from executing scripts all the time.
We'd like to hear more from other users what they think about the idea. If it still becomes popular, it might find its way into a future version of the…

.Net Toolkit: Automatically Restart Application after having published new Version
.Net Toolkit: Automatically Restart Application after having published new app version.
When setting up a .Net App using your .Net Toolkit (which works great), it would be amazing if the app could be restarted automatically after having pushed a new version to the git publish repository.
Currently, one has to disable and then enable the application manually. Restart by the way has no effect - at least not what I have seen so far.
This change would be amazing. Thank you!

Make the navigation tree adjustable in width.
I use nested folders on my site. The navigation tree does not have sufficient width to show them without constantly moving the bottom slider. Either the ability to drag the vertical scroll or a 'setting' would be extremely useful.

Create the option "Maximum number of incremental backups to store" on Plesk
Currently, it is possible to limit the "Maximum number of full backups to store" which is valid for Full backups only, it would be good to have a similar option to limit the "Maximum number of incremental backups to store".
It may be useful in cases when it's required to store the incremental backups e.g. last month and have full backups from the previous months also.

Allow setting MAILFROM field in crons from Plesk Interface
When a customer adds a cronjob within the Plesk interface through "Scheduled tasks", they can set the recipient (MAILTO field) of the cron with the "Send notifications to" field, but there is no option to set the sender (MAILFROM field). By default, the sender for crondaemon is user@server.tld, which in our case causes SPF errors with the receiving mail server of the recipient.
We do not give our clients CLI access, so they cannot manually set it with the crontab -e command, nor should they (the whole point of the Plesk Interface is for GUI-style ease of use). Could…

When Nginx and Apache are used, Apache should only listen to ports 7080 and 7081 on localhost.
As discussed in https://talk.plesk.com/threads/security-attack-surface-ports-7080-and-7081.368543 security should be reinforced: When Nginx and Apache are used, Apache should only listen to ports 7080 and 7081 on localhost. When Nginx is not used, Apache should only listen to ports 80 and 443.

consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.
It would be great that plesk repair db checks the consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.
This can be reproduced by adding some additional php directives via Plesk UI for example.com domain and then removing them from table PhpSettingsCustom via plesk db command.

Installation of TYPO3 and Toolkit similar to WP Toolkit
Our customers wish to install TYPO3 websites after buying an abonnement through WHMCS or the Plesk panel and have a toolkit where they can manage their TYPO3 installations from a panel like WP Toolkit. I searched through all feature suggestions but I didn't find a suggestion. You should be able:
- to rollout TYPO3 installations
- to manage all your TYPO3 installation
- to update your TYPO3 installation
- to stage/test their TYPO3 installation
- to remove your TYPO3 installation
- to reinstall your TYPO3 installation4 votesThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Add a snapshot of the current processes list to existing CPU / memory usage exceeded emails
The Monitoring extension already triggers email notifications when resource usage exceeds the allocations, but if usage has already settled before you notice these emails and click through to the server, it's difficult to find which domain was the cause.
Adding a snapshot of the current processes list to these emails when it's the CPU or memory usage thresholds that have been exceeded would be very useful. Potentially just the "Domains only" filtered list would suffice. Maybe trimmed to the top 50 or so processes ordered by CPU or memory, whichever is appropriate at the time.

Allow the creation of forbidden domain names via API
Please implement an option in Plesk, which allows the administrator to create domain names, which are forbidden for creation via Plesk UI.
For example, *.example.com has been added in Plesk > Tools & Settings > Prohibited Domain Names. This limitation should apply to all users in Plesk UI, but the administrator should still be able to create *.example.com subdomains via API calls.
This will be useful when looking to automatically provide users with a free subdomain for hosting, but prevent them from creating unlimited number of *.example.com subdomain via Plesk UI.
