  1. Live stats for the End User/Reseller that shows memory usage, DB Usage.

    Live stats for the End User/Reseller that shows memory usage, DB Usage. Basically something like how cPanel shows for the End Users. There is already Server stats for the admin since Plesk360 but there is nothing for the End Users.

    Since Plesk 18.0.51 users have an on-demand button "Refresh usage stats" on their statistics page. This updates the disk space usage charts. DB usage can already be seen in total in that pie chart, but also separately per database on the "Database" page. 

    If "memory" usage means RAM usage for you, please comment how RAM instant RAM usage of a single domain could have an impact on server operations, because such usage would change greatly within milliseconds.

  2. Ability to change favicon.ico for Plesk on permanent basis

    At this moment you can change favicon.ico by replacing /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/favicon.ico, however it will be replaced on Plesk update.

    It is also not possible to make it permanent using custom theme from Plesk branding guide.

    Please make a way to customize favicon.ico on permanent basis

  3. Ability to edit the email queue for subscriptions

    Would be very helpful if we could edit the email queue for subscriptions without server-wide admin rights. Unfortunately, as a Plesk user, I cannot edit the email queue in my subscription.

    We are happy to announce that the ability to Track Email Delivery is now available in Log Browser 1.8.0. In the new version, Plesk customers (as well as Plesk administrators) can track email delivery and manage deferred emails right in the domain card (under the "Mail" tab). If an email has been deferred, the reason also be shown.

    You can find additional information at https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#log-browser-1.8.0.

    If you have any feedback on the implementation of this feature, please let us know on the forum: https://talk.plesk.com/threads/your-experience-with-mail-delivery-troubleshooting-in-plesk.373062/

  6. keep up with .Net core and install Node.Js on Windows

    I have Godday and they are saying They are limited by Plesk on what frameworks are available. The version that Godaddy is offering is stuck on out-of-date .net core frameworks that are no longer supported by Microsoft. the most recent I can run is .net core 2.0 for crying out loud 5 is already out and 6 is only a few months away.
    Also ??? why ??? no Node.JS options available on windows? I'm a .net developer and most on the site are portfolio sites or small sites that I really could use the most recent .Net framework and Node.JS.…

  7. Add SSH2 extension to PHP default extensions to improve security

    Hi,

    Please consider add SSH2 extension to PHP default available extensions.

    To be able to use FTP over SSH (SFTP) the SSH2 extension must be installed on PHP.

    IN SHORT: SFTP (SSH2 EXTENSION) = SECURITY

    SFTP means secure file transfer via Secure Shell (or SSH), hence the name SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). The two devices (server and client) communicate via a single channel, that of SSH, in which the remote file management commands are sent and where the file transfer takes place. By default, the only port required for SFTP is 22, the same as SSH.

    SFTP implements the…

  8. Allow logins to WordPress while "maintenance" mode is engaged.

    Imagine being able to perform actual maintenance, when "maintenance mode" is engaged... Instead, actual maintenance can only be done with a 3rd party extension. Or, consider changing the labeling of "maintenance mode" to "WordPress On/Off" since engaging maintenance mode prevents actual maintenance, prevents logging in, and just shuts down the site.

  9. Enable sending e-mails to same domain on external server even if Mail service is enabled for a domain

    As more and more customers move to G Suite and Office 365, there is a need to send authenticated emails from local SMTP to external server that handles same domain.

    Lets say example.com has a WordPress installation that sends notifications, order confirmations, form confirmations, ... to avoid spam and meet best practices, I will create local e-mail account mail@example.com.

    If domain has G Suite hosting info@example.com, emails from mail@example.com will not be delivered, because of Plesk's setup.

    As long as mail is enabled locally, one will get error: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table; even…

    Since early 2023 a third option between "Enabled" and "Not configured" for the "Mail Settings" in a domain was added: "Disabled for incoming mail". This lets you send emails from your domain through sendmail with authentication and also lets you send mails through the PHP mail() function, but it does not deliver these mails locally. This solves the issue where mail domains are located elsewhere while a website generates emails from forms or other application scenarios.

    We'll be happy to read your comments if you have additional requirements.

  10. Ability to add MX DNS record with a custom priority from Plesk GUI

    Currently, MX record the dropdown priority options are available at an interval of "5".

    However, Google Mail and G-Suite require to create MX-record with a priority 1, which is not available in Plesk.

    There is similar request here https://talk.plesk.com/threads/google-mail-dns-wont-validate-unless-mx-priority-is-1.357702/

    Please, add ability to set other MX priorities in Plesk interface.

  12. Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity) for NGINX and Apache

    Hi,

    Please consider implementing Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity) for NGINX and Apache in the next Plesk update.

    At the moment any Plesk user if he wants to use Mod Security (official version supported by Plesk) is forced to use it as a web server:

    • Apache

    or

    • Apache + NGINX

    Any Plesk user who wants to use only NGINX as a web server and without using Apache at the moment cannot use Mod Security because Plesk does not currently support it for NGINX exclusively web servers.

    Here are some of the advantages of Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity and these…

  13. docker logs

    Docker containers' logs are not being rotated and in time occupies a lot of space.
    It would be nice if there was an option to specify flags like:
    --log-driver json-file
    --log-opt max-size=50
    --log-opt max-file=2

  14. Implement solution instead of myLittleAdmin for Plesk for Windows

    Vulnerability CVE-2020-13166 was discovered in myLittleAdmin and since the only option to completely mitigate the issue is to remove myLittleAdmin, it would be good to implement another tool to manage MS SQL databases through the web interface (instead of resorting to Microsoft SQL Management studio)

  15. Add possibility for Detach button in WordPress Toolkit, that it can check and remove records for non-existed WP instance from the WordPress

    At the moment the situation is following:

    I scenario

    The WordPress instance is installed in the /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/old/ directory.
    If the mentioned directory was manually removed from the server-side and the Detach button was pressed after in Domains > example.com > WordPress, the leftovers of the non-existed WordPress instance still can be found in WordPress SQLite database /usr/local/psa/var/modules/wp-toolkit/wp-toolkit.sqlite3

    II scenario

    The WordPress instance is installed in the /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/old/ directory and files from this directory were manually moved to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/.
    The Detach button was pressed after in Domains > example.com > WordPress, however the leftovers from the WordPress instance that currently is…

  16. Add portainer

    while somewhat noob friendly the current docker plugin is just missing pretty much every feature to make it useful for anyone else than a hobbyist.

    Portainer is multitudes more powerful and feature rich to serve the power users, for example being able to set up networks and swarms

  17. Hotlink protection Exception

    It would be good to have a way to add exceptions to the hotlink protection, so that some images can be available on thid-party resources.

    This is especially useful for adding logos to email's headers/signatures.

  18. Manage Wordpress updates, themes and pluging via CLI

    It is only possible to install a new WordPress instance with such options:
    https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/cli-linux/using-command-line-utilities/wptoolkit-wordpress-toolkit.78685/

    For example:
    plesk ext wp-toolkit --install -domain-name <domain> -auto-updates true -plugins-auto-updates true -themes-auto-updates true

    The other way is to manage it via Plesk GUI for existing domains:
    https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002224733

    Please add a feature to manage all updates for existing wordpress domains via SSH/WP-CLI

  19. Be prepared for Debian Bullseye

    Debian Bullseye should be released in Summer 2021.

    For Buster, it took a whole year to have a compatible Plesk version. Please improve on that and aim to have a version ready when Buster arrives.
