Add to Plesk possibility of installing certificates from ACME-compliant services other than Let's Encrypt
In Plesk, there is a Let's Encrypt which is an ACME-compliant vendor of certificates. It would be good to have another one or the possibility to implement other ACME-compliant certificates via Plesk tools. For example JPRS: https://jprs.jp/pubcert/about/ACME/index.html

Custom color wheel for private branding
Currently, Plesk provides only two options for branding customization, which can be limiting for users managing multiple internal companies with distinct branding needs. I propose the addition of a custom color wheel for private branding in Plesk.
This feature would allow administrators to choose from a broader range of colors, offering more flexibility in aligning the Plesk interface with specific company branding. For users handling multiple companies, this customization option would be a significant improvement, making it easier to differentiate between brands.

Add warnings for unsupported operating systems in the Dashboard
Many Plesk users continue to run outdated operating systems, which often results in non-functional repositories, failed updates, or even security risks. While the current Dashboard displays "Server Information," including the OS version, it lacks any warnings about the support status of the operating system.
I propose adding the following to the Dashboard:
- Display an orange warning when the OS has 6 months or less of support remaining.
- Display a red warning when the OS is end-of-life and no longer receives updates.
These warnings should include links to support articles explaining the risks and offering steps to update or migrate the…

Remove All Files / Packages From The Previous Plesk Obsidian Release(s) As Part Of Plesk's Upgrade Process
As per the title. When any Plesk Obsidian release is upgraded to the next release, many files and/or packages are simply left in place and not removed as part of the Plesk installation process. Without patient and time-consuming manual "clean-up" exercises, all of these now unused and non-functional files and/or packages, simply accumulate and (just like garden weeds do in the real world) take up useful and valuable server real estate, but for no purpose. It's a little surprising that this is still happening, when nearly all software packages provide this as a default action.

Enable SSL session caching by default in Nginx configuration
SSL session caching is not enabled by default in Plesk's Nginx configuration, leading to the warning “Session resumption (caching): No (IDs assigned but not accepted)” during SSL testing (e.g., SSLLabs test). Without SSL session caching, SSL/TLS handshakes take longer and consume additional resources, impacting performance for returning users.
The following settings are missing in the Nginx SSL configuration file (/etc/nginx/conf.d/ssl.conf):
sslsessioncache shared:SSL:32m;
sslsessiontimeout 1m;Steps to Reproduce:
- Run SSL configuration tests, such as with SSLLabs, and observe the “Session resumption” section.
- Note the warning “Session resumption (caching): No (IDs assigned but not accepted)”, indicating the lack…

Manage journald rotation settings via Plesk

Great fight against spam: Make possible to add settings in '.cf' for spamassassin like adding an helping DNSBL and/or modifying scores
The possibility to add DNSBL's is not bad, but not good as without knowing several emails are blocked and in these blocked emails sometimes is a or several hams/emails as false positives. Much better would be being able to put in an '.cf'-configurations-file for spamassassin 'DNSBL's, which do not block but move emails identified as spam to the spam folder. Later on the customer can watch from time to time if hams/femails as alse positives have been sorted out wrongly and put them back to the inbox or a sucfolder which is not for spams.

Autoresponder "From" Email Addresses
It is commonplace nowadays to see something like this when we receive email.
"Accounts From My Organisation" accounts@myorganisation.com .
It looks far more professional and more aesthetically pleasing than the utilitarian "accounts@myorganisation.com" which is the only option currently available in the Plesk Obsidian autoresponder functionality.
It would be a nice feature - and fairly simple, I imagine - to add a field to the autoresponder functionality to allow us to enter a "pretty" name which would be what the email recipient would see in their inbox. Alternatively, of course, the existing field could be amended to allow for…

URL-based branding logos
I suggest enabling Plesk to allow different branding logos in the login screen and the top left corner of the session, depending on the full-qualified hostname used to reach the server. For example, if a server can be reached through 2 different names, the idea would be to be able to set a default branding logo and have alternative ones depending on the URL used to connect to the server. Here's an example:
plesk.domain1.com -> main logo (default)
plesk.domain2.net -> alternative logo 1
hosting.domain3.co -> alternative logo 2
any other aliases/URLs -> main logo (default)3 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

avoid Plesk panel update when a backup is running
Plesk updates the panel while a backup process is running. This can interrupt a backup, for example:
Error: Server "<hostname>"
Value at Plesk\backup\Agent\Schema\Backup\Admin\AdminAType\PreferencesAType -> Plesk\backup\Agent\Schema\Backup\Admin -> Plesk\backup\Agent\Schema\Backup\MigrationDump is expected to be an object of class Plesk\backup\Agent\Schema\Backup\ScheduledTasks but is of type array
Error:
Unable to create the remote backup: Repository error: Failed to open the file '/usr/local/psa/PMM/tmp/pmm-de-tmp-repo-NnwqUP/backuplickey002410212254.tzst': No such file or directorybut I have observed other similar issues before.

Allow specifying of ports to open in firewall during certificate generation process to open and close again automatically

Create a BIND-independent SSL It! mode
As of now SSL It! requires an active BIND (DNS) service to function, as it relies on DNS validation to issue and renew certificates. This dependency is hardcoded into the extension’s logic to ensure compatibility with certificate providers like Let’s Encrypt and to maintain secure, automated certificate management.
The idea is to allow for this feature to be able to disable this hardcoded logic, which requires active BIND service to update the DNS in certificates.

restart cookie expiration time of 2FA (Google Authenticator) after a successful login
It is already possible to have the cookie of the 2FA login expire after n days. But for admins who work on many servers, this still causes unnecessary extra work once that time frame expires. Because then they will be prompted to enter the 2FA code again, and this happens on all the servers they operate. It adds up to a lot of wasted work time.
Instead, the cookie expiration could be reset to n days after each successful login. Example: A user sets the expiration to 90 days, but on day 81 the user logs in without having to…

Add option to hide DKIM management
We haven an external DNS cluster and an external customer panel in which customers can manage things like DNS records etc.
We have implemented a function through which we can let the customer enable DKIM through the external panel, which enables it on the Plesk server, retrieves the key, and adds the key to the zone on the DNS cluster
In order to avoid conflicts and confusion we would like to hide the DKIM settings in Plesk for the customer on the subscription level.

Block new extensions to be installed during Plesk Upgrades
