  2. Integrate option to interrupt copy processes

    I've copied a larger website to another destination, but I needed to interrupt the process, because something needed to get changed first. But there is no way to do so, I needed to wait a couple minutes before the task was done, why is there no option to cancel the current process? You could add an additional alert, if someone really wants to cancel it, but I see no reason, why this option is not available at all.

  4. ability to change IP for particular domain

    Currently, in Plesk it possible to change IP only on subscription level. As a result, the IP is changed for all domains under subscription. The ability to change IP on domain level would be very useful

  5. Event manager: Add a hook before an event is processed

    Hello all,
    I hope this idea can be shared with many of you.

    Actually in the Events manager you can handle a task, an action you can run AFTER the event occurs. Can be really usefull to have the same BEFORE, I'm going to explain:

    Make an example can be when a Subscription or a Domain is going to be removed from the hosting server, can be really usefull to backup data or something else similar before the task is executed.

    At moment is impossible to handle a task before an event occurs, we hope can be usefull for other…

  6. fail2ban - Add Details (Login Name)

    Often large Companies with lot's of Workstation are getting blocked because 1 Client in their Office is trying to log in with wrong Password (imap/pop/smtp) - then the whole Office of them is getting blocked and the search which PC/which User is causing the block.starts ...
    It would help big times if one got a reference which Login Name / Username caused the block as additional Info next to the IP ...
    Won't help on Brute Force Attacks where the Username changes ... but on this Scenario it would be a big Timesaver ...

  7. Backup via SSHFS

    We have huge amounts of Backup Data (currently around 450gb per file). The whole process using FTP takes around ~ 13 hours to complete. Trying to restore something is a big bottleneck for us. Restoring from FTP is ****, and we searched for alternatives.

    We decided to give SSHFS a try by mounting /var/lib/psa/dumps to the remote Server and disconfigured the FTP Settings. The result is annoying. The Backup now takes around 2,5 hours, the Plesk Backend is really fast now and local space is not consumed anymore!

    So i suggest you to give SSHFS a try. It is like…

  14. Restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup

    It would be great to have an ability to restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup. As of now, backup is created without any errors, however it is not possible to restore the database because restoration is done not in behalf of postgres user.

    Or at least have a warning when backup is created that I have to restore the database as a postgres user from the command line and do not rely on backup of the database created via backup manager.

  15. Add an option to disable reserved mailnames like root, postmaster, anonymous for domains

    If the option What to do with mail for non-existent users set to Forward to address (also known as catch-all address) in Domains > example.com > Mail Settings, then email messages to mailboxes below are not being delivered to the forwarding email address:

    anonymous@example.com
    mailer-daemon@example.com
    drweb@example.com
    kluser@example.com
    postmaster@example.com
    root@example.com

    Such mailboxes are present in the file /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual.db and mapped to be delivered to @localhost.localdomain:

    /usr/sbin/postmap -s /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual | grep example.com

    anonymous@example.com anonymous@localhost.localdomain
    mailer-daemon@example.com mailer-daemon@localhost.localdomain
    drweb@example.com drweb@localhost.localdomain
    kluser@example.com kluser@localhost.localdomain
    postmaster@example.com postmaster@localhost.localdomain
    root@example.com root@localhost.localdomain

    Please consider to add an option to disable reserved mailnames like root, postmaster, anonymous for domains in Plesk…

  16. Make it possible to setup a Microsoft DNS Server as Master, and another Microsoft DNS Server one as *****, that replicate/synchronise.

    I have the need to have an backup DNS Server, and especially using Microsoft DNS on both servers.
    This because we have scripts that have to be ran on Microsoft DNS Servers, to generate Let's Encrypt certificates for non-web purposes.

    And syncing the DNS on both MS DNS servers will give us near no downtime in DNS when its replicated.

  17. Git Workflow: DEVELOPMENT > PRODUCTION

    Many developers use git these days when working on a website or webapp. It would be great if Plesk supports a simple deployment workflow:

    Example when using two branches:
    - development
    - master

    Branch "development" will be automatically deployed by Plesk to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/dev.example.com => connected to https://dev.example.com
    Branch "master" will be automatically deployed by Plesk to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs => connected to https://www.example.com

    What about database connectivity?
    When using different databases for development and master you should not include your "database-connection.ini" into git but manually store it in the designated directory and edit via Plesk File Manager for example.

    What about access…

  18. Alternative functionality for configuring FTP backup storage instead of <backup-manager> operator.

    There is a need for new functionality that allows us to configure FTP backup storage settings. Plesk UI is not an applicable way. As XMP-API <backup-manager> operator is deprecated in Plesk 17.8, alternative cli functionality is required to manage FTP backup storage settings. It was possible to perform via XML-API <set-remote-storage-settings> node of <backup-manager> operator.

  19. Statistic usage per each page on website

    I can see the bandwidth of each domain on my webserver. But now i came with the idea (I dont know if it was requested before, or if it is a feature of the web host edition only) that you can see the bandwidth each page uses, so you can see it for the whole domain, but also every page you have in your plesk folder, so you have a more detailed overview what people like to look at on your page.Maybe a calculator how many mb one user uses (there are tools on the web for this, but something…
