  1. 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.

  2. 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?

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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

  9. 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"

  14. Option to delete a domain or subdomain, but keeping the website content

    am not understand, when i want to move a Domain, the system will delete all the content. The choice to leave the content, I think is essential. This has to be a must!!!

  15. 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.

  17. chacha20_poly1305 QUIC

    Plesk need to Support chacha20_poly1305 or QUIC better both
    It's faster than the normal https Socket and more Secure, QUIC can used in https also http and safer as SPDY

  18. Maldet for linux inside Plesk

    Hello,

    is better if such as "wordpress toolkit" you implement this software in plesk https://www.rfxn.com/projects/linux-malware-detect/ + ClamAV (is more faster the maildect search).

    With this way, anyone can scan our website from malware. And after scan, the user need to have an notify via email or directly into plesk. This inscrease the security of website and also increase the plesk security.

    I use it somethimes for scan all website into our web hosting, and I found it very usefull for prevent serius problem of botnet, hacked website etc.

    I hope that you can consider to implement this function.

    Regards

  19. Site migration on client level

    There should be a way for clients to be able to migrate from one provider to another between servers without problems and server administrator involvement.

  20. RDNS Setup For Domains

    Please Do allow to create RDNS(reverse DNS) records to the users for their mailing severs.

    Thank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

    — AY

    Additional information regarding this request:

    Please be sure you are an owner of IP-address if you plan to vote this suggestion.

    An owner of a block of IP-addresses has ability configure PTR records for IP-addresses in the block. If you rent a server or create a virtual machine in a cloud, you are not an owner of IP-address.

    Usually, companies like ISP or Cloud Providers own blocks of IP-addresses. In this case, you need to use Hosting/Cloud Provider Control Panel and set up reverse zone for an IP-address (not in Plesk Panel).
