  1. Deny access to all dot files by default

    A lot of web applications that are either built or simply installed on a website use dot files and folders, whether those be .htaccess, .git, .env, etc.

    Generally speaking dot files and folders are used to store either sensitive files or backend configuration which you would never want users to be able to access.

    By default Apache has some protection built-in to restrict accessing dot files, but Nginx does not. This creates a potential security risk, for example I might install a web application or build one which has dot files in the public root, these most likely would be…

  6. Distribution list on the premium email.

    Hello,

    It would be amazing to be possible to create a distribution list via Plesk Premium email without creating a mailbox and forward the emails.

    eg. create a example@example.com without a mailbox and forward to a group RH or Sales.

  7. Allow @% in MySQL username

    For external databases, I can connect to my server, but when I need to add a new user my SaaS database provider from Azure requires the username have an @%. Because of that the connection string in Plesk never works and fails every deployment of any CMS.

  8. Add email notifications for certain scenarios in the outgoing mail queue, e.g. "n mails waiting", "n mails processed in m minutes"

    It would be great to have the possibility to configure an alert/notification based on the Mail Queue.

    This way it would be possible to know if a certain amount of emails are being stuck in the queue.

    The alert should allow to chose a number of emails that should be in the queue before it sends a notification

  13. WordPress Toolkit: Add Remote Management for Reseller Plans

    The "Remote Management" is currently beta but I want to add to keep in mind that such functionality will not only help the administrators but also reseller accounts. Please implement/activate that feature on go live latest for resellers as well

    And later maybe for "normal" users but I it would therefore be nice to have an option to de/-activate using remote management within the hosting plans.

  19. Monitor log file growth within the day, rotate logs if necessary not only nightly

    Log files can be set to rotate by size or by period. These settings are processed once a day. However they need to be checked more frequently due to exceptional events such as brute force attacks.

    Assume your settings are rotate by size at 500K. When the maintenance script runs if you a slightly under it will leave it alone, so maybe the following day it might reach 900K. So far so good.

    But what happens when the log file grows to 14GB in 30 minutes, exhausting all free disk space and crashing the server. No harm was done by…

  20. Lock DNS records | Disable Reset to default

    We have the "dmarc"- record in our template having a placeholder for the value. At the time the Record "dmarc" was edited by adding the value, mostly every DNS record is no more in the state of the DNS template.

    Therefore it is important to have some policies:
    - The button "Reset to default" can be disabled on Admin and Reseller level.
    - The button "Master/*****" can be disabled. Usually this functionality is not needed.
    - For certain very important DNS setting, a "Lock" button might make sense. If applied, this record can not be edited anymore by…
