Change the backup structure so all files and directories regarding one backup are located in one archive
It'd be easier for to have a directory created for each backup instead of having all the files in, for example, /var/lib/psa/dumps/.
For example, I'd like to have a structure like this:
backup_2011300010.tgz that contains all the files and directories for this backup.1 voteRemote backups are already single-file archives. The same can be achieved by a workaround locally. In "Tools & Settings" > "Backup Manager" > "Backup Settings" check the box "Allow setting up FTP backup storage on the local server". Then configure any local FTP storage space of your choice, e.g. create a subscription just for the purpose of storing backups in it or use an existing subscription and create directory for the backups in it. Now configure your backups as "remote" backups but store them to the FTP address. This will create files that have all backup components in one single file, yet they are not stored on a different machine, but locally, and accessible much faster than if stored remotely.

Add possibility to secure IceWarp webmail from Plesk
By current design of Plesk SSL certificates selected to secure webmail in Plesk doesn't secure IceWarp webmail URL.
Consider adding this functionality.
2 votesEvery domain or subdomain can be secured by a free SSL certificate by Plesk. There is nothing special about IceWarp that would prevent SSL for the domain or subdomain used for their webmail application.

cloud storage for scheduled domain backups
You can store full server backups, manual and scheduled, and manual domain backups directly to cloud services but not scheduled domain backups. It's an obvious gap in functionality that could very easily be added and would make domain backups much more useful.
1 voteThis functionality exists in paid versions of cloud backup extensions. For example, for Amazon S3 or Microsoft OneDrive Backup extensions:
“Ability to store scheduled subscription’s backups in a remote cloud storage.”

The statistics page shows the total traffic in the right box labelled "Traffic". More statistics are available from the selected statistics package, e.g. AWStats that can be selected from the "Hosting Settings" page of a domain. This also shows the number of visitors per day and other useful data.

Support to PostgreSQL 12.x with the Plesk obsidian.
Hello Dev team,
I would like to suggest to provide the support also for PostgreSQL 12.x for Linux.
Since we already provide the 10x would be great if we could officially also provide the 12x https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/update-notes/
14 votesPostgreSQL 8.4 - 12 have been officially tested with Plesk. PostgreSQL 12 is supported.
https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012398553-PostgreSQL-support-in-Plesk
Newer PostgreSQL versions may not have been officially tested and approved as of this status entry, but should all work anyway.

Add the notification in Plesk that Fail2ban is enabled or disabled
Add the notification in Plesk that Fail2ban is enabled or disabled so that Plesk Admin can see if tFail2ban service is working or not in Tools&Settings > Fail2Ban, e.g. "Fail2ban is active".
3 votesThe information is available on the start page dashboard as "IP Address Banning". Inside the Fail2Ban configuration it is available on the "Settings" tab (checkbox "Enable intrusion detection").

Edit database connection information
Please add a feature in which is possible to edit database's connection information.
e.g Be possible to add port connection info alongside db server hostname, or add a field in which any note could be set.
4 votesPort and hostname cannot be edited, because they are set by the service and the host configuration. If you wish to change the hostname, please set the new hostname in /etc/hosts and edit it in Plesk as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213941265--How-to-change-or-get-the-server-hostname-on-Plesk-server. If you wish to change the database port, this must be done in the database configuration and depends on database type and version. Please refer to the man pages of the database server that your system is using. Normally, it is not advised to change the port.

Plesk Password Reset with username
In the current Plesk version, the password reset page only asks for the email address. If a customer does have multiple accounts on the server with the same email address assigned, he will receive a password reset email for every single account with this email address.
If the password reset page would require the username too, it would be possible to send the reset email only for one account. Like in the old plesk version.
1 voteA password reset is also possible by username.

Adding functionality to restore a non-existing domain or subscription from a server-wide Plesk backup
I suggest adding functionality to restore a domain or subscription from a server-wide backup on the Plesk server, where this domain or subscription is missing (for example, it was deleted before). This is very inconvenient when you have to create a nonexistent subscription, then restore it, and then separately restore the domain in it.
2 votesIt is not only possible to restore non-existent customers, subscriptions and websites, but also more granular objects such as mail acounts, databases etc. (please see the attached screenshot). When restoring a subscription, it is not necessary that the subscription already exists. If the whole customer account does not exist, you can also restore the full account from a backup. There is no need to create that account before a restore is done.

ArangoDB and ArangoSearch
ArangoDB and ArangoSearch would be an excellent addition to Plesk. It's probably the best NoSql database and text search this is practical for smaller users while being scalable. Unlike some options for search it doesn't require Java since it's written in C.
1 voteYou can use them in the scope of docker Plesk feature. Just install Docker Plesk extension, then ArangoDB and ArangoSearch docker containers.

Allow customisation of plesk theme and colour to match brand
Obsidian would be even better if it could allow customised branding, e.g colour, text and login page.
1 voteYou can use branding in Plesk with special CLI utilities:

Indent or group subdomains when viewing domain tab
When on the domain view and everything is ordered alphabetically, it would be better if the subdomains be grouped under the main domain (in alphabetical order) or even have an indentation to indicate they are a subdomain.

woordpress toolkit - create new install via rest api (cli) with password
Please allow to set wordpress admin password when installing new wordpress site via cli / rest api cli. or atleast return the created password.
1 voteIt is already possible now to specify WordPress password during the installation of WordPress via CLI. You will need to use the ADMIN_PASSWORD environment variable.
For example:
ADMIN_PASSWORD=secretPASS plesk bin extension wp-toolkit —install (…)This approach for specifying passwords was chosen for security reasons.

Make the SSL certificate upload much easier.
Make the SSL certificate upload much easier - it should not be difficult but it has been engineered to be problematic. I have not had issues with this task before - only when using Plesk.
No direct support to resolve an issue.1 voteWe made a special Plesk extension SSLit!, which was created specifically in order to simplify the work with certificates for domains as much as possible. Perhaps you didn’t know about it. I strongly advise you to use it and you will see that working with certificates in Plesk has become very simple and convenient.

Add an staging option similar to the WP-Toolkit one for other CMS systems and applications
Would be great to have an option to create a staging site for other CMS/Applications, similar to what is offered in WP-Toolkit for WordPress.
For example for Shopware, etc
2 votesIt will not be possible to add such an option to all popular software, as there are too many different applications used in too many different scenarios. Instead, Plesk already includes "website copying" and "website import" functions that make it very easy to clone an existing installation to another domain or subdomain. Exporting and importing a database is also available and very easy to use. Please choose these options if you want to clone a website.
I you are looking at a functionality like the WP Toolkit for other software, Plesk has a free API for extensions, so that the vendors of the software packages can provide their own toolkits to manage their software.
