  1. Supporting SSL resellers

    We need to protect with SSL certificates panels resellers. It is currently not possible.
    This should be an urgent implementation.
    Resellers constantly have the error that the website is not secure.

    Right now we can only put a SSL to protect the panel. We need to protect the panel for more domains.

    Example:

    https://domain1.es:8443
    https://domain2.es:8443
    https://domain3.es:8443

    etc...

    Forgive my translation, I use google translator.

  2. Custom Email Server Help Tips

    The settings for mail servers have a help tip in the email addresses management page, and in the users' Plesk Account pages.

    If a Plesk server is set up strictly as a mail server, and has DNS handled remotely, the settings in the Help Tips can be incorrect.

    Currently the tips only show the server as the root domain even if the mail server's actual DNS points (as an example) mail.domain.tld to the server, requiring the settings to include the subdomain.

    If I add the domain as "subdomain.domain.tld" in settings, then the server tips are correct but the email addresses…

  4. Blacklist of recipient target addresses in the spamfilter (useful for wildcard mailboxes)

    Hello,
    I miss the functionality of managing a blacklist of target email addresses in case you have a catchall email domain.
    In most cases, the originator address of spam emails changes every time, but the target address is frequently used.
    So with this functionality, I could drop out invalid recipient addresses, without giving up the setup to use catchall all emails <everything>@your-domain.
    This is useful to register webshops or community everytime using a separate target email address to distinguish incoming email if they are valid or not.

  5. Add debug symbols for nginx builds

    We have a customer using plesk and nginx. The customer wants to use our APM tool also for monitoring nginx, but in order to get deep monitoring we need the debug symbols for nginx.

    The customer is currently using package sw-nginx-1.9.4-rhel6.15091112.x86_64.rpm. The contained nginx binary does not contain debug symbols and we also could not find a corresponding “dbg” package in the repository. Are the debug symbols publicly available somewhere else? If not, can you please provide them?

    It would be perfect if you can add the debug symbols for every nginx version in future to your repository as APM…

  7. Email notifications frequency

    With email notifications enabled e.g for account expiration, the system starts to send emails every day since the x days in advance, which is annoying.
    It would be nice if we could customize the frequency and create a schedule like for example:
    1 email 30 days before
    1 email 20 days before
    1 email 10 days before
    1 email 7 days before
    1 email each day from 3 days before till expiration date.

  9. SPAM protection - Check if sender Mail domain exists

    For better SPAM Protection it would be nice to add an Option to let the Mailserver check, whether senders Domain is existing or even not.

    I got Mails from "Domain.xyz" wich is of Course no valid TLD.
    "Reply-To" is of Course an valid Mail adress.

    On request, my Data-Center told me they could activate that Option, but while Plesk is Controlling that config, on next Plesk update the Change gets lost.

    So: Could you add in Plesk that Feature as an Option?

  10. Option to shrink MSSQL Database log

    Many a times during database updates / ddl script executions the log file of MSSQL database becomes too large. There should be an option to shrink the log files. Currently this feature is disabled for both SQL Server Management Studio and Query.

  11. Changing soa serial format by using the XML RPC API

    It is possible to set the soa serial format either over the Plesk Panel or the command line, f.e.

    /usr/local/psa/bin/dns --update-soa <domain_name|domain_alias_name> -soa-serial-format timestamp|yyyymmddnn

    However, the XML RPC API should provide a possibility to change the soa serial format, too. Currenlty, the XML RPC API only allows to manipulate the values for the SOA's ttl, refresh, retry, expire and minimum.

  12. Configuring Email Notifications for Resellers

    Resellers should be able to configure the "Email Notifications" (http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/Doc/en-US/online/plesk-administrator-guide/index.htm?fileName=59422.htm) like the admins, so they can have a whitelabled Hosting, independet from other Reselles and the Admin. Otherwise, all Clients, from different Reselles, get the same email.

    In addition to that, a HTML Support, the Subject and the sender (email from) should be able to edit by each reseller, or by those, who have the permissions to do that.

    Thanks for your attention

  14. Express transfer: migration manager option to change IP address

    cPanel has a feature much appreciated: transfer in "Express Transfer".
    This feature allows you to migrate one or more domains from a source server to a server with changing IP ADDRESS from old to new server.

    I think it's time to apply it in Plesk.

  15. change domain alias

    when i have a domain alias (lets say alias.com) for domain test.com and i want to change the alias to test2.com, if have to delete the alias and recreate it.
    if i have many custom dns records in the alias, i have to create them again manually.
    it should be possible to just change the aliases "main-domain"

  19. jpegoptim, optipng, gifsicle or similar

    id like to see these tools implemented into plesk. To run server wide or domain wide, and via cron if required.

    Alot of large organisations are using these tools. (facebook etc etc)

    I like to see image optimization part of plesk admin panel. It will help servers run faster and optimize web delivery.

    Since Plesk 18.0.46 Nginx is shipped with GeoIP module. Please see https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/administrator-guide/website-management/websites-and-domains/extended-website-management/plesk-for-linux-setting-up-ip-geolocation-for-a-website.80011/


    While this feature request is asking for an Apache module, we are wondering whether this is still needed as the same goals can be achieved with Nginx GeoIP in a much better way with less server resources. 

    Please comment in this feature request why you still need the Apache GeoIP module. 

    -- PD
