  1. Spam

    I am using Plesk to send emails to group of 990 adresses, I have a 15000 adress base as a french elected representative. They now systematically go into spam, and many are blocked. How can I make my adress recognized so that it does not go into spam, please ?

  2. real-time view parameter

    It would be nice if Plesk could in the awstats be able to have the real-time view parameter of the most important visits to the website, as Yandex Metrika and Google Analytics have

    Unfortunately, AWStats is a third-party product which Plesk provides "as is". That software itself is not maintained by Plesk. Please consider to install a statistics software of your choice such as Matomo or maybe use a SaaS like Google Analytics to achieve the desired result.

    -- PD

  3. Change default awstats retention to 12 months

    The default is 3 months. That's a useless period of time. It should be at least 1 year. I just changed 2 servers to 10 years (120 months). I have an angry client that they can't pull up stats from June 2023 and it's February 2024

    The retention time depends on the log retention setting. If your log rotation is set to keep logs for 3 months only, the same applies to your statistics. If you set your log rotation to 12 months retention, statistics will be retained for the same time, too.

    If you require individual assistance with this topic, please open a ticket with Plesk support at https://support.plesk.com .

  4. DNS access for domain from SSL Certificate Registration

    When registering a new SSL certificate using Let's Encrypt, is there no way you can give access to add the challenge TXT record on the DNS directly from the SSL form providing the Chalenge key. Having to have more than one form open one on domains and the other on the website config is crazy. it will just make life so much easier.

    Thank you for your suggestion! Plesk offers multiple interfaces to change to configure and change settings in Plesk. Such as the REST API, the XML-RPC API and CLI utilities. All are designed to configure and change settings via a programmable interface. 


    However non of these interface are meant for managing content. Other scripting methodes for direct file management are more suitable for your objective.  

  6. External SMTP service per domain

    We know we can leave plesk using an external SMTP service, but it's for the whole server. There are also several guides on how to let postfix use relay with external SMTP, for example AWS SES.

    It would be great if we could use an external SMTP service per domain, using different credentials.

  7. security headers

    I have to say I was delighted to see that Plesk.com (unlike so many sites) has all its security headers* in order, but it would be really good if this was a thing that could be operated easily from within Plesk given the massive importance of them. It would also tidy up A LOT of the stuff to do with many of the things that people are asking on here with things like X- headers, Pragma and Caching, etc.

    There are a few plugins that are usable for this for Wordpress (probaly other things, but not the admin panel or…

    We understand that you are asking to add specific headers and maybe to remove others, but the broad range of what could be expected does not allow this to be done in a single feature request. It is also not possible to standardize such settings as the vast number of users all require different settings. All headers can already be individually set, it just needs an individual analysis what makes sense and what does not, tailored to each website.

  8. Support for Load-Balancers (Hosting Company Structure)

    Add the possibility for Load Balancers to detect on what Server a domain is hosted.

    This would make it possible to use Load Balancers without heavy API Integrations and headaches.

    Thank you for your feature request. It can be challenging to perform a Joomla in-place update, but it will no be possible to automate it. Joomla itself does not provide an automated upgrade path and also clearly warns to take precautions. They also mention in their guide https://docs.joomla.org/Joomla_3.x_to_4.x_Step_by_Step_Migration/en that extensions must be checked individually. 

    As not even Joomla themselves provide an automated upgrade-path this feature cannot be added at this time. Maybe in the future such in-place upgrades from one major version to another will become possible.

  11. Create and manage sites

    The authorization available for creating users is the "Create and manage sites" authorization

    "1-Create and manage the main site",

    "2-Create and manage Subsites"

    "3-Delete the sites"

    there are 3 authorization divisions.

    i would like to allocate critical tasks to our plesk panel users.

  17. Prevent wp-config.php from being zeroed out when disk quota for the subscription has been exceeded and WP debug was enabled.

    If the disk quota for the subscription has been exceeded, enabling WP debug for the domain either from WP-Toolkit or from WP Debug Log plugin will result in wp-config.php file having 0 size, which results in the not available WP site.
