Create Passenger Performance Booster tool to automatically change performance parameters
A possible extension tool like Performance Booster for Passenger would be best fit to automatically update the performance settings of Passenger, instead of manually updating settings.

Global Default Option: Move Spam to Spam/Junk Folder
Currently, in Plesk, the option to automatically move detected spam emails to the Spam/Junk folder must be configured individually for each mailbox.
I suggest adding a global default setting in Tools & Settings → Spam Filter that enables “Move spam to Spam folder” by default for all existing and new mail accounts – regardless of individual user settings.
Add a checkbox in global spam filter settings: “Enable ‘Move spam to Spam folder’ by default for all mailboxes”
This is a fundamental feature that I believe everyone would welcome, and since it will also be optional, everyone will still be able…

Independent Bandwidth and Storage Measurement
Implement a built-in method to measure bandwidth and storage utilization in Plesk without relying on third-party analytics modules like Webalizer or AWStats.
This feature would optimize performance by reducing CPU and IOPS usage, allowing users to disable these optional modules while still accurately tracking pure traffic (bandwidth) and storage metrics directly within Plesk.

CLI-API V2: Return stdout output of cronjobs on successful execution
Currently, the API endpoint /api/v2/cli/scheduler/call only returns the execution status (e.g. "success" or "error") and the exit code. The actual stdout output of the cronjob, such as “123 images imported,” is not returned if the job completes successfully.
For monitoring, logging, or integration purposes, it would be very helpful if the standard output of the cronjob could also be returned — just as error messages are returned via stderr.
Proposal:
- The CLI-API should (if possible) return the stdout output of the executed cronjob.
- Alternatively, a flag could be added (e.g. return_stdout=true) to optionally include the output.

Add CLI Support in WP Toolkit to Apply Security Measures (e.g., disable XML-RPC)
Currently, WordPress Toolkit in Plesk does not support applying security measures (such as blocking access to xmlrpc.php) via CLI.
This limits automation and scalability, especially for hosting providers managing multiple WordPress installations.
Please consider adding CLI options to apply specific security measures—similar to what’s available in the UI and API—for improved scripting and bulk management capabilities.

Integrate SmarterMail features directly into Plesk
Consider the possibility of integrating certain SmarterMail administration features directly into the Plesk interface.
For example, allow users to manage spam filters and safe senders from Plesk, without needing to access SmarterMail.3 votes -
Add Full Two-Way Synchronization with SmarterMail
When a user with administrator permissions creates an email account directly in SmarterMail, it is not synchronized with Plesk.
As a result, the account is not displayed in the Plesk interface, which creates confusion and makes centralized management difficult.Ensure that any email account created or modified in SmarterMail is automatically synchronized with Plesk, and vice versa.
This would ensure consistent management and avoid discrepancies between both platforms.3 votes -

Unable to select “All” domains in Plesk: Option missing from dropdown
In Plesk, the "All" option for selecting domains on the Domains page is hidden when the number of domains exceeds 500.
While this improves performance, some administrators require the ability to select and print all domains and aliases.
It would be helpful to make this behavior configurable — e.g., via panel.ini or a toggle — for experienced admins on high-performance servers.2 votes -

Sort/Filter mail addresses by forwards
In the web administration panel, when you list email addresses and perform a filter search, only addresses that match the address itself, something at the description, or the alias appear. It would be nice if matches with forwarding addresses also appeared, so if we have multiple accounts forwarding to example@domain.com, all the addresses that forward to that account would be found.

Add subscription-level option to separate mail and hosting IP addresses
It is possible to choose a specific IP address for mail server-wide. This option should be available at the subscription level, so each individual subscription can choose a dedicated IP address for mail without affecting the others, and without having to change the IP address used for hosting.

Digital Ocean DNS extension Moving domains to default DO Project
At the moment, any domains created in plesk and sync'd to Digital Ocean get put into the default project/container. There is no way to specify the destination project.
If you then go into Digital Ocean and move the domain to the correct project/container and then go back to plesk and make any dns change and click update, it resyncs to Digital Ocean and moves it back to the default project/container.
This means that Digital Ocean DNS extension for Plesk currently does not support the usage of a project different from Default in DigitalOcean. that makes organizing things harder and it…
