  1. WordPress Smart Updates notifications

    For now, the only way to manage WordPress Smart Updates notifications is to enable/disable them at all under Tools & Settings > Notifications > WordPress application updates.

    Please add feature to manage Smart Updates notifications, particularly receiving only failed updates.

  2. Block user access after failed attempts

    It would be great to implement in Plesk a new feature.

    When there are X failed attempts, in Plesk there should be the possibility to block automatically the access to the customer account (completely or for a certain period of time).

    As per now, Plesk block the IP address via Fail2ban, but this is not the feature that we need. We just want to block the access completely or temporarily for the affected login.

  3. Limiting access to Plesk panel by specifying the allowed dst addresses

    It is required to control the accessibility of the Plesk panel by having an option to permit access only by the specified server's IP's. For example:
    Let's say there are 172.16.1.10 & 172.16.1.11 IPs on the server both assigned with a domain name panel.example.com.
    Option "Specified domain" is set in Tools&Settings > Customize Plesk URL.
    Any other IP address on that should NOT serve the login procedure.

    However, when this server has a full subnet 172.16.1.32/27 added as the secondary IP addresses, it is possible to open any of them via the Web Browser, afterward press "Log in to Plesk"…

  4. add functionality for pre-install checker to check supported components and prohibit installation on case unsupported components are found

    It would be great to not have an ability to install Plesk on a system that is using a component (database server, e.x.) that is not supported by the Plesk version.
    Please consider implementing the functionality of the pre-install checking of unsupported components. It can prevent issues with Plesk on the servers with unsupported software.
    Such an idea has already been provided once, however, it was too specific (for database servers only): https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/20166910-prohibit-installation-on-unsupported-databases.

  5. Disable webmail for a specific mailbox

    It would be good an option to disable webmail for a specific mailbox instead of the whole domain in cases where we do not want someone accessing the account outside of their workplace.

  6. Send scheduled backup notifications from administrative email address

    When email specified at Scheduled backup notification it sent on behalf of user and failed due to SPF check

    For example, if you set email for backup notification as test@example.com the email will be sent FROM test@example.com. And if it does not exist on server it may fail during SPF checl

    It is expected that email sent FROM administrative email.

  7. Make it possible to create a subscription with mail service in deactivated state

    In Plesk Onyx, when subscription is created from a service plan, mail service is created in deactivated state.
    But when such subscription is created in Plesk Obsidian, it is created without mail service, which makes creating mail addresses impossible without enabling mail service.
    Creating mail addresses in this way is crucial for the client, so please add this functionality to Plesk.

    Add an option to the Mail Addresses page to expand all the forwarding emails. For example, rather than saying "(and 4 more)" list all 5 forwarding email addresses, not just the first one for each email address on the display.

  9. Extend restart options for docker

    Currently, Docker extension only supports "no" and "unless-stopped" (represented by "Automatic start after system reboot" tickbox).
    It would be nice having the ability to select any of:

    no
    on-failure
    always
    unless-stopped

  10. Add support for the Cluster module in Passenger

    Add support for the Cluster module in Passenger supplied with Plesk:
    https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html#cluster_cluster

    Currently, when Node Cluster module is called on a NodeJS application configured in Plesk in development mode, the following error is be shown:

    Trace: You required the Node Cluster module, which is incompatible with Passenger, a non-functional shim was returned and your app may still work. However, please remove the related code as soon as possible.

  13. Add the option to remove certain domain names or its parts from Let's Encrypt certificates auto-renewal notifications

    Add the option to remove certain domain names from Let's Encrypt certificates auto-renewal failure (customer's digest) and Let's Encrypt certificates auto-renewal success (customer's digest).

    For example, I have domain example.com without "www" part (by design) that is secured with Let's Encrypt certificate for example.com (without "www" part). Plesk sends the notification that the www.example.com could not be secured. With the suggested option it will be possible to switch off such notification for "www" part only so that the regular notification for example.com will be active.

  16. clean temp folder daily windows servers

    Windows Servers (Plesk) become slower when the c:\windows\temp folder has thousands of files in it even if you have SSDs as IIS will have to load all those files each time it loads a website or does a task.
    This folder seems to have thousands of .spamassassin files aswell as thousands of PHP sessions files and its not always a permission issue.

    To ensure this does not occur we created a daily scheduled task to use ForFiles app on windows server to clear it each night. This improves speed dramatically.

    We recommend Plesk consider creating this in the panel of…

  19. Show overusing mailboxes if subscriber cannot be changed due to insufficient resources warning

    When attempting to change subscriber for a subscription under a reseller, the following warning is returned:
    Unable to continue subscription transfer: this subscription requires more resources than can be provided by the new owner's provider. However, the mailboxes exceeding the limit are not specified.

    It is impossible to see which mailboxes exceed limits, especially if there are hundreds of domains on the reseller.

    The suggestion is to include affected mailboxes into the warning, or at least to provide a [GUI] tool to find such mailboxes among all subscriptions under the affected reseller.

  20. Setup hostname for mail autodiscover per domain

    You should add a simple option to specify mail server hostname when autodiscover is enabled on domain level...

    example:
    main.domain -> Web
    mail.main.domain ->Mail server (this one should be in autodiscover xml response for incoming/outgoing hostname )
