  1. Use FQDN in Zone Transfer!

    MY Zonetransfer failed since months without noticing it.

    As my *****-dns provider changed the IP address for the AXFR-Servers.

    If Plesk would accept a FQDN, this wouldn't have happened.

  3. Add option to Whitelist IP in Fail2Ban and mod_security

    I always need to whitelist IPs in Firewall, Fail2Ban and mod_security.

    u could add at least an option to also whitelist fail2ban in mod_security or even make two checkboxes in Firewall whitelisting to whitelist ip in all three modules.

    also usage of dns instead of ip would be greate for example PayPal does recomment to whitelist dns for api!

  4. Enable SSH Key Generate via Plesk Control Panel

    With the SSH Manager inside Plesk Onyx, it is extremely easy to add a new key to a subscription. The problem is, most users don't understand how to generate a key with tools like PuTTYgen and explaining it to them leaves them very confused. It would be very handy if, inside the SSH manager there was a way to request a new key pair be generated and added to a subscription automatically, so users don't have to go through the hassle of generating a key.

  5. [XML API] Use the "switch-subscription" request to associate a subscription with a service plan by its name and not only plesk_guid

    Currently, using XML API, it's possible to "switch-subscription" request to associate a subscription with a service plan by the plan GUID.

    Considering a scenario where multiple Plesk servers are used with same Service Plan names, their GUID would still differ so the same request to one server would not work on another. Therefore, it would be nice to have a "plan_name" node under "switch-subscription" so that the same request could be used on all servers

    https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/api-rpc/about-xml-api/reference/managing-subscriptions/switching-a-subscription-to-a-different-service-plan/samples.66391/#request-packet-structure

  6. Allow resellers to change main customer's domain name

    If the option 'Forbid customers to change the name of their main domain' set in Tools & Settings > Server Settings, reseller also unable to change the main domain.

    The Reseller is Administrator for his customers and should have this right.

  7. Add ability to obtain information about Backup Settings via CLI.

    Please, add a feature to be able to check Backup manager settings (including Scheduled backup settings), server-wide and for the particular domain via CLI. It would be very convenient for server administration to get information about backup settings in one place: for example, if there are multiple domains with different settings.

  8. Allow CNAME to point to another CNAME

    Allow CNAME records to point to another CNAME record. Currently it is not possible to do so in Plesk and shows the error:

    Error: Incorrect combination of DNS records is present in the DNS zone.

  10. Preview files larger than 10mb directly on Plesk File Manager

    When trying to open files larger than 10mb on file manager:
    Unable to display the file. The file size cannot be greater than 10485760 bytes.

    Plesk has a limit of 10mb hardcoded when viewing files on FileManager

  11. Exclude internal requests from the Traffic statistics

    Plesk seems to add up the request response size,
    including those of its own extenal IP address.
    We would like to disable this behaviour or filter out this info, because
    this is not the actual traffic.

    We have customers that have a lot of internal requests because of some
    caching module where about 50% of the total traffic is from its own IP.

  12. Wordpress CPU and RAM usage stats and slow plugin warnings

    I would like to see the CPU and RAM usage by Wordpress applications.

    I would also like to see a warning about slow php scripts, which would help to catch Wordpress plugins that use too many resources.

  16. Let's encrypt wildcard for domain aliases

    Currently, when requesting a wildcard certificate for a domain with multiple domain aliases, only the main domain gets a wildcard.

    Let say you have a main domain domain.com and have 3 subdomains domain.fr, domain.co.jp and domain.eu.

    When requesting a wildcard certificate including all aliases, you'll get :

    domain.com
    *.domain.com
    domain.fr
    domain.co.jp
    domain.eu

    where it would be more logical and usefull to have :

    domain.com
    *.domain.com
    domain.fr
    *.domain.fr
    domain.co.jp
    *.domain.co.jp
    domain.eu
    *.domain.eu

  17. Order custom buttons

    It would be great to be able to customize the order of buttons shown in the right sidebar from Plesk GUI. (see attached image: default-order.png)

    For example, let's say to move the last button to the first position, so the customer will notice about it. (see attached image: custom-order.png)

    We are setting different custom buttons in Plesk for our customers and we want to set this custom order to call the attention of the end-user over the default Plesk buttons.

  19. check passwords against Pwned Passwords API

    Plesk should check user typed passwords against Pwned Passwords API

    https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/v2

    that way you could further improve systems running Plesk against Brute-Force attacks - and Dictionary attacks

    WordFence plugin for WordPress is already offering this, checking WordPress administrator passwords against https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/v2

    it shouldn't be too much work to compare Plesk password hash between Plesk and https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/

    I would like to use this feature for all services (FTP, E-Mail, Plesk, WordPress, etc.)

    It makes a lot of sense to do this, there are no drawbacks
    it should be option that users can enable/disable
    if you don't need it, you can disable…
