  1. Auditing of action for "Hosting Services"

    It would really help, if plesk logs/audit every action, which can be done at the hosting Services: Customers, Domains, Subscriptions.

    Each new or changed settings should be logged.

    Thus would reduce our support.

  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

  3. Plesk migrator shall notify secondary DNS about the new primary DNS

    After a migration from Plesk to Plesk, configured DNS slaves with the extension ***** DNS Manager are not notified about the new master of the zone for migrated domains.
    It could be done while clicking on 'Switch DNS' in advanced mode with the commands rndc delzone example.com and rndc addzone example.com {etc...}.

  4. Import emails in batches

    There is a Mail Importing feature in Site Import extension, but it is possible only to migrate emails one by one. It would be great if there is an ability to migrate a couple of mailboxes at once.

  5. Configure MailEnalbe Whitelist via Plesk

    There is White List under Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings, it is used by SpamAssassin.

    MailEnalbe has also White List under Servers > localhost > Services and Connections > SMTP > Properties > Whitelist.

    MailEnalbe Whitelist cannot be managed through Plesk.

    It would be nice, to have ability to manage MailEnalbe Whitelist in Plesk interface

  6. Make utf8mb4 default when backing up mysql databases

    When i backup database with Plesk (either with Export/Import feature or with Backup Manager), it loses all characters outside Unicode BMP (all characters > 0xFFFF).
    It's because mysqldump default charset is utf8, not utf8mb4.

    This should be changed, for example, if database contains at least one field with utf8mb4 charset - mysqldump should be run with --default-character-set=utf8mb4 option.

    Settings in /etc/mysql/conf.d/mysqldump.cnf are not respected too, it works when i use mysqldump from command-line, but doesn't work when i export or backup db with plesk.

    MySQL dump 10.13 Distrib 5.7.25, for Linux (x86_64)
    MySQL Server version 5.7.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.2

  13. 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…

  14. 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…

  16. 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

  17. 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. 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.
