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.

Manage Windows Firewall Rules via Plesk CLI utilities
While firewall settings can be adjusted via the Plesk GUI, users who prefer automation and scripting are forced to use Windows PowerShell instead of Plesk’s built-in CLI.
Currently, there is no direct way to:
Add, modify, or remove Windows Firewall rules via Plesk CLI.
Disable or change default firewall rules, unlike in the GUI.3 votesThank you for your suggestion! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

Allow importing external DNSSEC keys (KSK/ZSK) into Plesk DNSSEC interface
Allow importing external DNSSEC keys (KSK/ZSK) into Plesk DNSSEC interface
Currently, Plesk’s “Use Existing Keys” DNSSEC feature only works if keys were previously generated by Plesk itself and are already present in its internal database.
There is no way to import an externally generated KSK/ZSK key pair into Plesk’s DNSSEC interface, which makes DNSSEC domain migrations difficult. Users are forced to either rotate the keys and notify the parent zone (risking downtime) or perform manual workarounds outside the GUI.
It would be valuable to add a supported method in Plesk to import legacy DNSSEC keys, allowing seamless migration of already-signed…

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.

add a general rate limit option for service connections in iptables
Similar, but not the same as proposed in https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/46431970-add-rate-limiting-rules-to-fail2ban
Problem:
Scrapers and bad bots are reacting to an increased propagation of Fail2Ban bad bot rules. Their new tactic is to collect a number of domains hosted on the same ip address first, then to send burst style requests to all these domains "at once" so that they get a response before Fail2Ban rules kick in to ban the ip address of the requestor. Since 3/2025 in some cases it has been observed that these attack style bursts can be so massive that they drive up the cpu usage of a…1 voteThis is a valid request, so we'll look into it.

Add a feature of limiting the amount of swap usage as well which happens to be a MemorySwapMax variable in order to prevent subscriptions from occupying all swap when the limit on RAM was reached.

Add a way to remove entries from the Scheduled Backups List extension
The Scheduled Backups List extension has no option to remove entries. When there are many domains and customers enable and disable scheduled backup tasks, the extension eventually becomes unusable as it's necessary to manually navigate pages to find relevant disabled backup tasks.

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…
