  1. A option to search for mail accounts on Smartermail via Plesk

    A option to search for mail accounts on Smartermail via Plesk.

    Because if you create a email adress in Plesk it will automatically create it in SmarterMail, but if you for some reason creates it in SmarterMail directly it won't show up in Plesk, and you are not able to create the email in Plesk until you remove the email from SmarterMail and do it via Plesk

    Thank you for your idea! 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.

    Meanwhile, as a workaround, you can follow these steps:

    • Back up mail contents of SmarterMail mailboxes;
    • Remove all required mailboxes from SmarterMail;
    • Manually create these mailboxes in Plesk, under Domains > example.com > Email Accounts, so they are synced with SmarterMail;
    • Restore mail contents.

  4. Add an ability to set automatic restart of NodeJS

    NodeJS can only be restarted manually. Therefore, an option to auto restart NodeJS even on production, by setting in seconds or minutes, should be possible.

  5. Resource usage report per Service plan

    Please implement an option in Plesk to generate a resource usage report per Service plan.

    For example, the report in Tools & Settings > Summary Report could have a section that provides the usage data per Service plan.

  7. Moodle 4.0 Upgrade in Web Applications

    Guys and Gals, who are using or supporting Moodle as the best free Learning Management System, PLEASE VOTE for this suggestion so Plesk can include the app update to Moodle version 4 or greater in the next versions of Plesk.

    According to Plesk Obsidian's Documentation for Web Applications at https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/administrator-guide/website-management/websites-and-domains/web-applications.68973/ regarding "Updating Apps," by default, Plesk installs the latest available app versions and updates apps immediately once the newer versions are available.

    However, this is not true because Plesk offered for the past year 2021, an outdated version 3.10.4 of the Moodle App. Recently Plesk released a Moodle update to…

  8. Empty .trash folder even if it contains read-only/write-only files

    When the .trash folder contains read-only directories or files, it cannot be emptied with the "Emtpy Recycle Bin" button of "File Manager". Instead it throws errors that Linux "rm" cannot access the files or directories for removal.

    As these files and directories are in the trash folder, I propose to delete such files anyway as otherwise a user without console access or limited knowledge (such as using FTP to change file permissions, if that is possible at all for the FTP user account) can't ever remove such files.

  9. Secure Plesk mail servers with Modern authentication

    Microsoft is retiring Basic Authentication soon, which means servers that do not use Modern Authentication (OAuth, 2FA, MFA, etc.) will not be able to use its mail client Outlook.

    I suggest you add an option to secure Plesk's mail servers with Modern Authentication, for example by integrating it with third party apps such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Duo, Okta, etc..

  10. Ability to set expiration date in a subscription without locking it

    Provide the ability to set an expirations date without locking a subscription. When changing the expiration date of a subscrition it becomes locked for sync. It shouldn't become locked as subscritions have expiration dates that need to be prolonged when the customer pays for his next term.

  12. Ability to change certificate repository for a Subscription via the Plesk GUI

    On a Plesk server that uses one main domain and many subdomains (over 1000) as separate Subscriptions, I find it necessary to have the option to change the certificate repository that the subdomains use easily.

  13. Prohibit user from deleting domains

    Hello,
    Another customer's domain names were accidentally erased from his control panel, according to us. Please give us a choice to prevent this from occurring again. Alternatively, provide us access to a internal ticket system, which requires staff approval.

    Thank you for your idea. When deleting a domain, a clear warning an confirmation dialog is displayed. Domains are only deleted when that additional dialog is confirmed. https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/41416156-delete-domain 

    Nevertheless, we'll consider adding a feature that users won't be permitted to delete domains at all, if this request becomes popular.

  14. "Send welcome mail" by button so that admin can send login credentials to a new user by email template

    As discussed in https://talk.plesk.com/threads/send-email-with-credentials-to-my-customer.369632/#post-927240 Plesk should have a button for server admins by which an admin can send a welcome mail to a user with the user's login credentials. That should be template-based with an editable template to cater for the requirements of different server providers.

    It should also not be sent directly, but similar to the existing "mass mailing" function first show the proposed text in an editor window so that the admin can make additions or edit the text. Then send from there.

  15. I want an interface to set transport_maps for Postfix

    Please set the default transportmaps in main.cf to "hash:/etc/postfix/admin/transport" so that the server administrator can set transportmaps.

    [current situation]
    transportmaps = , hash:/var/spool/postfix/plesk/transport
    [Functional improvement]
    transport
    maps = , hash:/var/spool/postfix/plesk/transport,hash:/etc/postfix/admin/transport

    Based on the following article, Litespeed does not restart automatically after WordPress installation:
    https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12376957323543

    Please allow functionality to automatically restart Litespeed after installation or cloning of a WordPress Instance.

  17. Ability to set a Subscription or Domain Backup Default

    I'd love the ability to set a subscription such that a Scheduled Backup configuration is enabled by default? E.g. "backup all files, daily, store 1 day"?

    Often times I realized after the fact that a domain backup was not turned on. The "scheduled backup list" extension is nice, but I'm looking more for a default option.

  18. Allow user to choose folder for unzip

    Allow the user to choose the folder in which an archive gets extracted instead of extracting only in the folder the zip archive exists in. This is especially important for webapps that don't use webdeploy.

  19. Create a "grid" of permissions where admin can enable or disable parts of menus related to the Service Plan

    Can be really usefull increase details of personalizations of the customer's menus, for example:
    into smb/iis-app-pool/settings/id (AppPools Settings) to allow to recycle it but not to create a new one
    For example, if customer creates a subdomain, it can also create a dedicated appPool for it and this can create problems in some envs.

    Our suggestion is to create a "grid" of permissions where admin can enable or disable parts of menùs related to the Service Plan, as happens now but much more granular

    Thanks

  20. Add new columns in customer page or customize it

    We should be able to add new columns for customer page. It's important to manage customers in such a way. In my case I need to add new columns for:
    1. if a customer has already an aggrement with our company.
    2. see their mail adress in customer listing page.
