Support of SELinux
Attacks to web servers are in increasing. All modern Linux distribution come with SELinux. SELinux is a perfect way to avoid an attacker to get privileged access to the OS. Currently, Plesk is not supporting SELinux.
Support should be added. A policy should be provided to configure SELinux to support all PLESK relevant actions on the server.13 votes -
Add possibility to change default webmail.<domain> subdomain to custom
At the moment by default any webmail interface is under domain webmail.<domain>
Some people would like to use custom one. For me personally it's important to have this as server-wide setting (I have basic workaround for this - custom domainWebmail.php), but it isn't perfect (many links to webmail service missing, e.t.c.).
And that's why we have plesk - user friendly interface.

Create separate Mail and Web Space
Make separate limits on Mail and Web disk spaces, so that hoster could sell one limit for web (i.e. 2Gb) and another limit for mail (i.e. 10x2Gb mailboxes)

Make default Plesk-page editable from GUI
I would like to be able to update that site from the plesk host panel, I have no idea how to do it now!
5 votesWe will consider an option to edit the default page directly from within Plesk GUI in upcoming releases if it will be popular.
Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
For the time being you can already edit the default page that is located in /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs on the system level.

mail after successful backup
Currently you get after completing a backup, only one mail, if errors occur. For me it would be helpful to have the option to receive an e-mail even when successful backup.

Allow creating separate E-Mail Adresses for Domain Aliases
I would like to be able to create own e-mail addresses for Domain Aliases. Let's say i have example.com as domain and add example.net as alias, now i would like to create e-mail adresses for example.net (alias domain) only which are NOT available on example.com and vice versa.

Fail2ban setting findtime per Jail
In Fail2ban (great idea to include it in plesk!) settings you can set "Time interval for detection of subsequent attacks" (findtime) in general. But it would be interesting this setting per Jail.
Why?
you could have 2 jail with same filter but different findtime. Example:
Jail 1) 5 failures in 600 seconds: 1800 seconds ban
Jail 2) 30 failures in 86400 seconds: 604800 seconds banThere are bots that detect if you have some protection fail2ban or similar and it will adapt, login attempt every 300 seconds for example. Jail 1 no detect this attack, but Jail 2 yes.

Add Aliases for Subdomains
You are currently not able to Alias a subdomain through plesk. Instead you must create the subdomain as a primary if you wish to alias it. In many situations it would make sense from an organizational standpoint to keep the subdomain under a main domain while still adding aliases to it. I do not believe this is a technical restriction of the webservers so it would be helpful if plesk allowed you to add aliases to subdomains.

Overuse Policy: Overuse is not allowed + Grace Period
Right now there are 3 options:
- Overuse is not allowed (this is preferred but will disable customers site once limit is hit)
- Overuse of disk space and traffic is allowed

Scenario:
A resellers Overuse Policy is set to:

Create daily md5-hashes of the web-content of a domain, to quickly identify tampering or hacking.
Let Plesk on every night optionally create/compare md5-hashes from all files in the domains storage-space (web,httpdoc,ftp) and update this in a simple list (database), sortable by date of last change, size, number of changes. Indicating "changed files in the last xx days" to have a time-window to drill down.
In addition, accumulate all vhosts together into a seperate "Admin-View", where ALL domains are put together alphabetically.
Add an additional button "snapshot", so one could create a list of all webfiles on request. For example, when an incident has been cleaned, then click "snapshot" and then wait some time to see…

Enable chrooted sftp for more than one user per account
If I use FTP, I can make as many users as I want. For various reasons, using FTP is not optimal at my workplace. I'd like to be able to let each ftp user I create log in with chrooted sftp.
I'm able to modify /etc/passwd and /var/www/vhosts/example.org/etc/passwd to make it work, but doing that manually kind of defeats the point of using a tool like Plesk...
Specifically, I give the ftp user the same home directory, and shell as the initial sftp user has in each passwd file.

read-only FTP-users (even on Linux)
Today, it is only possible to give write restriction by using .ftpaccess-files. It would be very nice if there was a switch in the panel when creating FTP users, which would make it possible to create a read-only account.

Fix File and Folder Permissions for docroot from Plesk UI
When switching from Apache to FastCGI the Service Provider needs to change the permissions for the customer from apache:apache to <user>:psacln
This can be fixed by having a button in Plesk which does:
find $PLESKDOMAINHTTPDOCS -not -user $PLESKDOMAINOWNER -not -name "plesk-stat" -print0 | xargs -0 chown $PLESKDOMAINOWNER:psacln
find $PLESKDOMAINHTTPDOCS -type d -not -name "plesk-stat" -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0755

It should be possible to limit other users to a specific domain with full control panel functionality
When a new user is added, it should be possible to limit him to a specific domain rather than having access to all other hosted domains. e.g i am hosting 4 domains on my subscription and i want to create a user with having access to only one domain with full control panel functionality, i should be able to having this control over other users.

Custom Bookmarks on homesite / start-screen
It would be a good idea to put the bookmarks back in the panel. In some earlier versions of plesk ( 9 or ten i think) we could generate a bookmark for every website of the plesk-system (i.e. a special hosting or a database) wich enable a solution for 1click administration of our most used actions in plesk.
thanks for bring it back again!
