Let us have Plesk cGroups Manager out of the box
I think that with the price of cloudlinux being so cheap at 14$ per 1 license which includes the capability of using cGroups to manage resources, plesk should offer it out of the box and not on a paid extension because it's effectively cheaper to use cloudlinux for all the extra benefits instead of buying the hosting pack just for cGroups manager.
Please consider adding it as a permanent feature out of the box.
2 votesThis functionality was added in Plesk Plesk Obsidian 18.0.41 (https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18041). We suggest you to upgrade and check it out.

Implement MariaDB 10.4 support
Please implement MariaDB 10.4 support. We have upgraded to MariaDB 10.4 by mistake and now we're jumping through hoops adding new websites / DB users.
The main issue is that MariaDB have moved the 'user' table to a table called 'global_priv' and Plesk is still trying to read from the old one ( which they've converted into a View, so it errors out ).
We can't downgrade, as it's not supported, and we certainly can't roll back. So it would be extremely awesome of you if you'd help with this.
Also by reading on Reddit and Plesk Support forum, we're…

ability to disable Wildcard certificate option in Let's Encrypt
Add ability to disable Wildcard certificate option in Let's Encrypt
19 votesAvailable since Let’s Encrypt Extension 2.8.3.
https://ext.plesk.com/packages/f6847e61-33a7-4104-8dc9-d26a0183a8dd-letsencrypt
“2.8.3 (24 October 2019)
[+] Introduced the allow-wildcard-certificates option (true by default) under the ext-letsencrypt section in the panel.ini file. If set to false, the option hides the feature of issuing wildcard SSL/TLS certificates in the interfaces of the Let’s Encrypt and SSL It! extensions.Note: For the same purpose, users could earlier use the acme-protocol-version setting with the acme-v01 value. If you have this configuration, we recommend that you start using allow-wildcard-certificates set to false because the ACMEv1 protocol will soon reach end of life."

Nginx Cache purge
Please, consider to implement some sort of cache purge functionality available from Plesk web interface, because if cache TTL gets extended to match Site needs, it gets complicated, i.e. need to go over Linux Terminal to purge it. A Wordpress integration would be just super fantastic, but I understand, it is not realistic to wish it.
Thank you!123 votesStarting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.45 https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18045,
added the ability to manually clear nginx cache for websites with nginx caching enabled, both via the GUI and using the plesk bin domain_pref --reset-nginx-cache <domainName> command.

custom dkim selector name
It's a shame you are obliged to have a DKIM selector (key) name of 'default', and there is no ability to rotate keys as once you update the 'dafault' key will change value, meaning messages sent under the prior key, also called 'default', will fail.
GMail offers a nice option where you specify the selector name and so can rotate keys nicely. O365 has a more basis scheme were keys have to be called selevtor1 and selector2 (from memory), flip-flopping between the two. Not elegant.
Gmail is the way to go...
- Enable DKIM
- What would you like your…45 votesSince Plesk 18.0.56, published October 10th, 2023, It is possible to change the default DKIM selector to a custom one for a single domain or all new domains hosted on the server.
You specify a custom DKIM selector for a domain in the domain’s mail settings. To specify a custom DKIM selector for all new domains, add lines of the following pattern to the panel.ini file:
[mail]
dkimDefaultSelector = newselector

Support dynamically assigned IPv6 addresses on Plesk for Linux
Currently, Plesk for Linux filters out IPv6 addresses that were assigned dynamically by use of Stateless Address Autoconfiguration, or other means: https://plesk.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000239114
This greatly limits IPv6 functionality in Plesk due to the fact that all hyperscalers (Amazon, Google, Azure, Vultr, etc.) provide IPv6 addresses using the autoconfiguration method.

Be prepared for Debian Buster
Last time, it took the Plesk team quite a long time to support the new Debian version. As Debian Buster will probably be released in the following months, it would be very nice if a new Plesk version was available shortly after.

I’m glad to inform you that Debian 10 “Buster” Support for Plesk Obsidian is now Available with Plesk Obsidian 18.0.28 update #1!
Note: we do not consider support for any dist-upgrade scenarios for Debian 10, the best way to move from old Debian or other OS is Plesk Migrator.Just to remind, you always can check ETAs for new Operation Systems support in Plesk Obsidian FAQ: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/faq/#s1q6

Provide ModSecurity 3 modules for supported operating systems
ModSecurity 3.0 was released about a year and a half ago, and the 2.x branch support seems to decline.
In addition to that there are some features of ModSecurity 3.x, that would be nice to have:
* Proper support for webservers other than Apache, without having to resort to an Apache-like wrapper module running within other web servers
* Better performance due to the architecture rewrite
* GeoIP2 databases support out-of-box (MaxMind no longer provides new Legacy-GeoIP databases, so this would be very good to have)Considering that newer *nix OS (Debian 10, CentOS 7 through EPEL) ship libmodsecurity-3, I…

Add historical CPU and RAM usage by subscription in Plesk Repair Kit
