  2. Server load balancing / multi-host

    Hi,

    We'd love to see the possibility of horizontal scaling on Plesk for WordPress websites. Meaning, we'd like to host 1 WP website, on different instances (servers), in different geographical areas.

    This setup would need to share 1 DB (i.e. Amazon RDS), but pull the assets from geographically different servers. Many times a CDN is not enough.

    Note: this is not a failover request (https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/5284370)

    Thanks

  4. Autoreply works based on calendar picks

    It autogenerates an email based on the text and variable fields based on calendar pick. You choose a standard email from your pre-generated emails and it gets updated through calendar.

    e.g. "Dear all, I will be on holidays from <<DD>> of <<MONTH>> to <<DD>> of <<MONTH>>..

    e.g. "Dear all, i will be out on sick leave from <<DD>> of <<MONTH>> to <<DD>> of <<MONTH>>.

    This is for people that need to manage the autoreplies of all their colleagues and need to manually input all this each time. For example if for that employee last autoreply was of sick leave. I…

  6. File Manager open in full window may give full area to access files and it will give experience as a text editor

    File Manager open in full window will give full area to access files and it will give a great experience as a text editor too.

    As in capture image if it gives a zoomed view to manage file then it would be great. Also, it can give text editor mode if it gives a full zoomed view.

    Thanks

  9. Be able to export PHP and Extensions settings globally

    As per Audit purposes, there is a need to perform the PHP and Extensions settings globally.

    For now, it can be done manually and with a lot of work through CLI but it would be great to have this feature implemented so it can be done easily and from within the Plesk user interface.

  12. Option to erase Nginx additional directives when turning Proxy-mode on

    When Proxy-mode is being turned on by clients, remaining WordPress Nginx additional directives affects sites processing since Nginx still works in a front-end. It makes Administrator to delete such directives every time domains is "switched to Apache" which is not convenient.

    Currently this can be automated only via manual scripts and Plesk Event Handler.

    Thank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    I would very much appreciate if you add some explanation comments why you prefer Amazon Linux instead of already supported OSes (like CentOS/Debian/RedHat/Ubuntu). Why it is important for you?

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

  14. Setup global PHP-FPM settings Tools & Settings > PHP Settings

    As an alternative to edit PHP-FPM settings per Service Plan, it would be helpful to provide the possibility to setup PHP-FPM settings on the same place as global PHP.ini settings are available

    For example, in Tools & Settings > PHP Settings > 7.x > Extensions > Edit PHP.ini and Edit PHP-FPM

  15. Notification interval setup

    Right now the notifications in Plesk via Tools and Settings > Notifications can only be setup as per the starting condition when expiring (I.E.: 10 days in advance).

    It would be good to have more settings such as the interval as, as of now, the notifications are sent daily once the condition is met and it would be nice to be able to set it with mor flexibility (I.E.: each 5 days).

    Please allow all IIS authentication configurations for a virtual directory. Currently, only Anonymous and Windows authentications are available. If we want to setup only "Basic Authentication" for a website then we can't do it from Plesk Panel.

  18. docker proxy rule respect host/ip

    when mapping a port to the host it is possible to bind it to a host/ip too.

    # docker run --name test -p 127.0.1.1:80:80 ...

    # docker port test
    80/tcp -> 127.0.1.1:80

    When building a docker rule now in plesk the host/ip is ignored and the proxy_pass goes for the default ip 0.0.0.0:

    proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:80;

    The rule should respect the host/ip.

    proxy_pass http://127.0.1.1:80;

    Have a nice day

  19. Nginx restart interval functionality

    An Nginx restart interval should be helpful for situations when users use API calls to modify domain's PHP settings. This results in multiple nginx reloads:

    /var/log/plesk/rc_actions:

    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:26:00 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:26:44 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:26:59 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:28:06 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:29:11 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload

    A similar functionality exists for apache in Tools & Settings > Apache web server > Restart interval.

  20. block bad bots by default

    There are many bots that can actually DoS a server using Plesk. Since there's no way to limit their connections they can overload a server really easily. Currently the only way to block them is by reading the logs and implementing blocks in nginx or .htaccess rules.

    It would be great if there could be some security by default. The community has created very comprehensive lists that could be used and auto updated / maintained by cron jobs.

    Here's an example for Apache

    https://github.com/mitchellkrogza/apache-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker/tree/master/Apache_2.4

    And here's for Nginx

    https://github.com/mitchellkrogza/nginx-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker

    It could help mitigate attacks and vulnerability scans as well a…
