Smarthost per domain configuration & enablement
At the moment, it is possible to configure Smarthost in Plesk on a server level and enable it for all domains at once.
However, there can be cases where I need to enable configured Smarthost for some specific domains only, with all the other emails flow via the default mail system.
Another example is that when I, as an admin, configured Smarthost on a server level and want to provide my customers & resellers with an ability to enable this Smarthost ad hoc.

ability to toggle WordPress REST API endpoints
I've recently discovered that by default, WordPress exposes a REST API endpoint at /wp-json/wp/v2/users which can be exploited to enumerate users. While I have found a workaround by creating a custom rewrite rule in IIS to block access to this endpoint, I believe this should be a built-in feature of the WP Toolkit.
I propose that Plesk add an option within the WP Toolkit to easily enable or disable access to specific REST API endpoints, such as /wp-json/wp/v2/users. This would provide an additional layer of security for WordPress sites and make it easier for administrators to protect their websites.

Add option to create temporary admin account in WordPress Toolkit for support access
Our customers regularly ask us to assist by logging into their WordPress site. It would be very helpful if the WordPress Toolkit had an option to create a temporary additional admin account, allowing us to log into their WordPress website securely for troubleshooting or support.

Add backup restore (sw-tar) multithreading
Plesk uses its internal sw-tar program for unpacking backups, which currently lacks multithreading support. This results in a significantly slower recovery process when handling a large number of files or large data volumes.
Given the continuously growing data volumes and increasing file sizes, it is time to implement this feature.

Display MySQL/MariaDB versions with warnings for unsupported versions in the Dashboard
Many users run unsupported versions of MySQL or MariaDB, leading to issues such as failed updates or database errors. Since Plesk only supports LTS versions of MySQL/MariaDB, it's important to make this clear to administrators.
I propose adding the following improvements to the Dashboard:
- Display the installed MySQL/MariaDB version directly on the Dashboard.
- Include warnings for unsupported MySQL/MariaDB versions, with a color-coded alert system similar to the OS warnings.
These warnings should also link to support articles that explain the importance of running supported database versions and provide instructions for updating to a supported version.
By implementing this, administrators can…

FTP Bandwidth Control in Plesk
Introduce a feature within Plesk to allow administrators to limit and manage FTP bandwidth usage on a per-domain or server-wide basis. This feature would enable precise control over the data transfer rates for FTP services, improving resource allocation and network traffic management. By offering bandwidth throttling, server administrators can prevent excessive FTP usage from affecting other services, enhancing overall server performance and customer satisfaction.

Improve the Backup Manager for when it freezes or aborts when using S3/Scaleway
Plesk should have a native mechanism to detect when a backup job is stuck; helping to manage backups more efficiently without relying on manual intervention.
Plesk should allow backups to automatically resume from the point where they fail, rather than starting from the beginning; saving time and resources, especially for large backups.

Add warnings for unsupported operating systems in the Dashboard
Many Plesk users continue to run outdated operating systems, which often results in non-functional repositories, failed updates, or even security risks. While the current Dashboard displays "Server Information," including the OS version, it lacks any warnings about the support status of the operating system.
I propose adding the following to the Dashboard:
- Display an orange warning when the OS has 6 months or less of support remaining.
- Display a red warning when the OS is end-of-life and no longer receives updates.
These warnings should include links to support articles explaining the risks and offering steps to update or migrate the…

Enable SSL session caching by default in Nginx configuration
SSL session caching is not enabled by default in Plesk's Nginx configuration, leading to the warning “Session resumption (caching): No (IDs assigned but not accepted)” during SSL testing (e.g., SSLLabs test). Without SSL session caching, SSL/TLS handshakes take longer and consume additional resources, impacting performance for returning users.
The following settings are missing in the Nginx SSL configuration file (/etc/nginx/conf.d/ssl.conf):
sslsessioncache shared:SSL:32m;
sslsessiontimeout 1m;Steps to Reproduce:
- Run SSL configuration tests, such as with SSLLabs, and observe the “Session resumption” section.
- Note the warning “Session resumption (caching): No (IDs assigned but not accepted)”, indicating the lack…

Autoresponder "From" Email Addresses
It is commonplace nowadays to see something like this when we receive email.
"Accounts From My Organisation" accounts@myorganisation.com .
It looks far more professional and more aesthetically pleasing than the utilitarian "accounts@myorganisation.com" which is the only option currently available in the Plesk Obsidian autoresponder functionality.
It would be a nice feature - and fairly simple, I imagine - to add a field to the autoresponder functionality to allow us to enter a "pretty" name which would be what the email recipient would see in their inbox. Alternatively, of course, the existing field could be amended to allow for…
