  1. Ability to change/manage Watchdog settings with commands via CLI

    In some cases, it is required to change/manage settings in Watchdog (for example Preferences in Watchdog) for a great number of servers. For now, it is possible only from Plesk GUI which in the scope of about 100 servers will become a great deal to do. So it would be much convenient to be able to manage these settings with command through CLI.

  2. Information about Web Statistics user and credentials

    Plesk interface should inform that in order to check Web Statistics it should use the FTP credentials. User's may think that they can use Plesk admin/reseller/customer login credentials. For example showing that information when hovering with mouse cursor or adding some info box

  3. Add global option to control default value of "Search Indexing Enabled" and "Debugging" for newly created site

    We've WordPress development company and use Plesk for managing lots of staging servers for projects under development.
    All domains are created automatically via API as part of the project's start process, and, of course, all instances that are under development should not be indexed during the development stage (as it will affect the page index of the site in production).
    By default, "Search Indexing" option is enabled, and this is quite inconvenient and error prone for us (as it requires manual setup of the created instance).
    Adding global server-wide configuration option for WP Toolkit that will control such default behavior…

  5. Add command-line arguments to Plesk reconfigurator.exe (Windows Server)

    Please add command-line arguments to Plesk' reconfigurator.exe to represent functionality that is available in the GUI.

    For example, it is not possible to change MySQL Data location on the command line. This is unfortunate, as the GUI is pretty useless automated deployments.

  6. Additional Admin users should have the same permissions like "admin" on Plesk Mobile

    When we access a Plesk server via Plesk Mobile app on iOS using an additional admin user, the only options available are "Domains" and "More"

    Please make the same options available to root/admin user available to additional admins as well: Domains, Information, Events, Services, More.

  7. Ability to exclude www for domain aliases when issue Let's Encrypt certificate

    Currently in SSL It! extension the option is "Include a "www" subdomain for the domain and each selected alias". In that way the Let's Encrypt limit will take effect if many aliases exist in Plesk for domain.

    For example, it is required to protect example.com, www.example.com and 50 aliases. In that way Let's encrypt will protect example.com, www.example.com and 100 aliases (50 without www and 50 with WWW) and it will hit the Let's Encrypt Limit.

  9. Way to suspend outgoing mail service per-account

    Like on cPanel where you have the option to suspend Outgoing mail service (SMTP) per account. Also as an idea of mine, set the email account to only allow send email inside the domain like user@domain.com he only can send to whoever@domain.com

  11. Add IIS App Pool start/stop and recycle permissions separately from enable permission

    At the moment there is only one permission for IIS App Pool Management.

    It would be interesting if a subscription had the permission to start/stop or recycle their dedicated App Pools, but not to create new ones.

    In this scenario, there would be an option to provide the subscription with a single App Pool, and let them manage it, but not to create new App Pools.

  12. Add possibility to view FTP log file via Plesk GUI.

    Add possibility to view FTP /var/log/plesk/xferlog file via Plesk GUI.

    It will be helpful in order to check what operations were made by FTP accounts.

    Also, add a possibility to download this file via Plesk GUI and convert this file to PDF and CSV formats.

  13. Add ldap to store Plek users credentials so a spam filter can verify the Plesk users without making an SMTP connection.

    Could you add a local LDAP server to Plesk to verify Plesk email users?
    We currently use a spam filter (Barracuda). It has the ability to verify the recipient via LDAP. https://campus.barracuda.com/product/essentials/knowledgebase/50160000000IUSGAA4
    /How+can+I+configure+recipient+verification+for+Barracuda+Email+Security+Service+-ESS-/

    This would be handy.

  14. Restrict or enable the manage trash.rotation settings in Plesk by user

    Restrict or enable the manage trash.rotation settings in Plesk by user.

    For example, when the settings are enabled, they are enabled globally and every customer/subscriptor whereas it would be helpful if it could be enabled only for admin.

  16. Perform SQL Server DBs Transaction log Backups via Plesk

    The documentation on backups says even if incremental is specified it does a Full SQL server database backup.

    The Full SQL server database backup does not truncate the transaction log file and it will keep growing forever.

    In order to truncate the SQL Server transaction log, a Transaction log backup has to be performed by the sysadmin. It would be nice to be able to perform those directly in the Plesk interface and by the customer/DB owner instead of the sysadmin.

  17. Make possible to manage limit_req_zone for nginx

    modbw cannot be used for limiting connection when nginx enabled. Plesk does not provide out of box enabling and configuring limitation of connections for nginx. Please add support for limitreqzone which provide similar functionality as modbw for nginx so that it would possible to control such resources.

    We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is  popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

    However, please be aware that rate-limiting web traffic can and should normally be done using iptables as it is much more effective and resource savvy doing it on the operating system/kernel level. If there are issues with web traffic, it is best to not to let it get to the web server in the first place.

  18. Option to add own Grafana dashboards to advanced monitoring

    You can already achieve this by editing the predefined dashboards in Grafana. But this isn't a very pretty solution for this, it would be nicer with the option to add full dashboards.

  19. Reset the session time-out when users are working in the code editor.

    While I am working in File Manager's Code Editor, there seems to be a static session time-out. Even if I am saving my progress periodically, the session time does not reset. This may be the result of settings that my shared hosting service have put into place, but Plesk should reset the session-timout while I am not idle and using the Code Editor.
