  1. Server notifications should be sent using a freely configurable SMTP server and port

    The sender's address of Plesk notifications can be set since Plesk 18.0.45, but it is also desirable to being able to configure the SMTP server, port, loginname, password and encryption scheme for such notifications. For example, some environments don't allow mail-out through port 25.

  3. WordPress Toolkit support for Bedrock-powered WordPress instances

    Bedrock is a modern WordPress stack that implements several improvements related to WordPress setups.

    Better folder structure
    Dependency management with Composer
    Easy WordPress configuration with environment specific files
    Environment variables with Dotenv
    Autoloader for mu-plugins (use regular plugins as mu-plugins)
    Enhanced security (separated web root and secure passwords with wp-password-bcrypt)

    More information on Bedrock can be found here: https://roots.io/bedrock/

    Plesk's WordPress Toolkit cannot currently handle Bedrock-powered WordPress instances.

    Because some of Bedrock improvements are considered to be current best practices and provide safer setups, it would be nice to see support for Bedrock-powered instances in WordPress Toolkit.

  4. Disable docker exposed ports in firewall

    It should be possible to block the port exposing in global nets from docker containers within the firewall.
    It's a massive security lack! Most applications are run behind a 'docker proxy rule', so there's no need to expose the port to the whole internet.
    Docker's modifying the firewall by itself, so this has to be disabled.

  5. Add support for djbdns / tinydns

    Add support for djbdns / tinydns - export each domain's DNS records into a plain text file that gets then copied to separate (stand-alone) DNS server(s) running djbdns / tinydns. The DNS services do not and should not run on Plesk servers themselves, but rather on separate stand-alone servers. Export each domain's DNS zone into domain.com.txt filename.

    The text file synchronization can be done either automatically by Plesk, or a simple cron job to automate replication to 2+ djbdns servers, where the files are added, or if a domain.com.txt exists, overwrite it and comile/publish djbdns data.

    (we've been using djbdns…

  6. Add an icon on the Websites and Domains dashboard, under Status with the other icons, that shows the status of SSL whether it is active

    Add an icon on the Websites and Domains dashboard, under Status with the other icons, that shows the status of SSL whether it is active or not.

    Hover over shows the Expiry date, but that is not essential. Knowing if SSL is active at a quick glance is.

  7. Define maximum number of saved backups in Service Plan

    As an administrator you currently can define the maximum number of full backups to store. This maximum number applies to all backups, stored locally or remote.

    This is a feature request for:a) defining a separate maximum for locally stored backups and a separate maximum for remotely stored backups. b) as well defining those maximum numbers in service plans.

    The option to define the maximum number of stored backups in a service plan would allow administrators to fulfill backup needs on a per customer basis. And even sell additional backups to customers who might have a need for much longer backup retention.

    Defining a separate maximum value for local and…

  8. Additional Account Authentication via Email

    This is a request for the implementation of an optional extra layer of authentication via email for customers and resellers who want to login to a Plesk server. Which would improve security by making it much less effective/useful for customers to share their login details with others.

    Although similar in concept to 2FA, this is different than the already available 2FA extension as "email account authentication" poses way less of a barrier to non tech savvy users as no additional apps or devices are needed for authentication. Just email. 

    Ideally it would work something like this: a server administrator could enable "email account authentication" so…

    Thank you for your visionary idea! We might consider such implementation if the technology needed to do it becomes available. At this time, Chat GPT API is not capable to support the requested implementation.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

    Thank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular. However, the normal procedure for integration of third-party platforms with Plesk are extensions. These should be developed by the vendors who want to integrate their product with Plesk. Many other storage platforms already have developed extensions for Plesk, so Mega could do the same using the free API toolkit: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/extensions-guide/plesk-extensions-basics/how-to-create-and-install-extensions.76094/

  15. Secure Plesk mail servers with Modern authentication

    Microsoft is retiring Basic Authentication soon, which means servers that do not use Modern Authentication (OAuth, 2FA, MFA, etc.) will not be able to use its mail client Outlook.

    I suggest you add an option to secure Plesk's mail servers with Modern Authentication, for example by integrating it with third party apps such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Duo, Okta, etc..

  16. Trigger to update PECL extensions automatically by Plesk

    In recent Plesk versions it is now possible to manage PECL extensions for PHP directly in Plesk. However we need a method to keep such PECL extensions up-to-date, either with some sort of trigger or event handler.

  17. In the "Domain DNS settings" section, you need to add the ability to temporarily disable records.

    Good afternoon. In the "Domain DNS settings" section, you need to add the ability to temporarily disable records.
    There is a general list of all records, there is also a checkbox with which you can select the desired lines. By selecting rows through the checkbox, we can only delete in bulk.
    Please add the ability to temporarily disable the necessary records during the mass selection of rows through the checkbox. Well, maybe they would just be highlighted somehow or vice versa would be gray, which would mean that they are disabled. Also, if you select these disabled, you could re-enable…

  19. "keep secure" should be ON by default for any new Service Plan.

    We and many other companies sell "Reseller accounts", each reseller has its own service plans. We can't control how they create their service plans and if they enable "keep secured" in their plan.

    So in that case, there should be a global keep-secured solution that has nothing to do with resellers' plans.

    An admin should have the option to enable "keep secured" globally so that any newly created domain will be secured once it's pointed to the server DNS. Something similar is working flawlessly in CPANEL. CPANEL users basically do not need to actively install an SSL by Let's Encrypt.…

  20. Auto-update database structure on update failure

    Joomla Toolkit will report a failed core update on certain occasions (like running out of memory). It will then ask to check the site manually.

    This "manual" check translate into checking for issues with the toolkit, and pushing a button to update the database structure. It's all done from within JTK.

    The purpose of the toolkit is to automate such tasks and report the issue accurately, so upon failure it should re-check the site and resolve the issues automatically, and only report the need to check manually if that fails.
