Customize Quick installation of Wordpress
It would be great to add ability to customize Quick installation settings of Wordpress. For example,currently it is not possible to change installation path in case of Quick installation option is selected. However it maybe required to modify the path without customizing other options (such as Administrative access credentials, main configuration etc), Having ability to modify default quick installation settings would be a nice tool, which make it easier to use WordPress for end-users.
3 votesWe have redesigned the installation experience, and it seems that installation of WordPress is now working the way you want. Check the feature out and let us know if you have any additional comments!

Option to disable wp-cron and set up crontab
Add an option to WordPress Toolkit to disable wp-cron.php execution and optionally create a real cron job.
You would have to add:
define('DISABLEWPCRON', true);
to wp-config.php and than give the admin a choice to set up a cron job with custom times (e.g. every 10Min or 6h).See: https://www.siteground.com/tutorials/wordpress/real-cron-job/
12 votesThe ability to disable wp-cron was added in WPT 4.7. Users can enable a switch on each site, disabling wp-cron execution. This will also create a scheduled task in Plesk which you can modify to change the execution frequency.
Server administrators can also choose to enable this feature on all new WordPress sites. This is done on WPT Settings screen.

Redirect from HTTP to HTTPS for secured webmails
You should place a redirect from http://webmail.domain.tld to https. Even the option "Hosting Settings > Permanent SEO-safe 301 redirect from HTTP to HTTPS" won't redirect the webmail; in any case these should be two separate options as the website may not support HTTPS yet.
41 votesHi!
The functionality is now available:
1. Linux: in the SSL It! Plesk Extension: https://ext.plesk.com/packages/3c4117f6-c05c-4d3b-9173-60f10096a9c4-sslit
2. Windows: in Plesk Obsidian (by default)How to find it in SSL It! Extension:
1. install SSL It! Extension (it’s available for Plesk 17.8+)
2. go to > SSL/TLS Certificates
3. if there is no SSL Certificate installed on the domain – issue one (using, for example, free Let’s Encrypt SSL Certificate)
4. if an SSL Certificate is installed on the domain, there is a switcher “HTTP→HTTPS redirect”, this switcher has an option “Webmail”, turn it on.
5. Voila!We would appreciate hearing your feedback on the implementation of this functionality. Thanks in advance!

Increase max username length for MySQL to 32 characters
In Plesk MySQL database usernames are limited to 16 characters, however MySQL 5.7+ allows usernames for up to 32 characters. Please update the max length limit in Plesk.
If username is too long Plesk will show an abstract error like 'Database user name is invalid'. In case of too long usernames, the error could be more descriptive.

Add ECC CSR support
Now Plesk uses RSA encryption method, but we would like to use ECC CSR support as it's considered more modern.
2 votesWe’ve released Let’s Encrypt Extension 2.7.2: https://ext.plesk.com/packages/f6847e61-33a7-4104-8dc9-d26a0183a8dd-letsencrypt
2.7.2 (17 January 2019)
• [*] In Plesk for Linux 17.8 and later, the extension now supports issuing ECDSA certificates. To have the extension issue certificates signed with ECDSA, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:
[ext-letsencrypt]
key-algorithm = ECDSA
ecdsa-curve-name = prime256v1 ; can be omitted

Support full DNS for CloudFlare ServerShield
Currently CloudFlare ServerShield is implemented using partial (CNAME) setup. What is the point in a partial setup when you can benefit from full DNS? You get anycast DNS with CloudFlare on full DNS.
151 votesThe DNS Integration for Cloudflare extension is production-ready since Plesk 18.0.56, published October 10th, 2023. Empower your experience with simplified DNS synchronization, enhanced website security, effortless subdomain creation, and smoother workflows. Use Cloudflare CDN, which distributes content around the world to speed up websites.
- Connect your existing Cloudflare account to Plesk.

This update completes the work on the new Plesk DNS Integration for Cloudflare extension. Please comment if you have additional thoughts on it.

Restart services on failure using systemd
We've noticed that Plesk services like plesk-php72-fpm are sometimes killed by the out of memory killer or otherwise crash and require manual intervention by us. The services could be made more resilient by adding the following file to supplement Plesk's service file and reloading systemd.
cat /root/reload-on-fail.conf
[Service]
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5scp /root/reload-on-fail.conf /usr/lib/systemd/system/plesk-php*-fpm.service.d/reload-on-fail.conf && systemctl daemon-reload
I've also made an ansible playbook for this:
https://gist.github.com/nbeernink/679b8c0bc635158b0ea4dfb96e10c7c5Additionally, you can also add this to services like nginx, mysql/mariadb, dovecot and postfix and they will restart on failure as well.
However instead of us all running these playbooks on old and new servers,…

Checking Wordpress Plugins/Themes against the Wpvulndb
The Wordpress Toolkit utilities in Onyx are awesome, but it would be pretty cool it could also check currently installed plugins/themes(versions) against the WPScan Vulnerability Database https://wpvulndb.com/ or some similar service so that known vulnerabilities could be highlighted, or automatically forced to be updated...
