  1. Restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup

    It would be great to have an ability to restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup. As of now, backup is created without any errors, however it is not possible to restore the database because restoration is done not in behalf of postgres user.

    Or at least have a warning when backup is created that I have to restore the database as a postgres user from the command line and do not rely on backup of the database created via backup manager.

  4. Let users choose the preferred log storage path (log file location)

    Plesk should store all logs in the standard linux location of /var/log instead of storing logs in /var/www/vhost/system/<domain>/logs. In our case, we run very optimized Plesk environment w/ /var/www/vhost setup on it's own Enterprise RAID SSD. But we can't optimize Plesk hosting when the access logs, error logs, etc are also being written under the same partition (ie /var/www/vhost/...).

  5. Git Workflow: DEVELOPMENT > PRODUCTION

    Many developers use git these days when working on a website or webapp. It would be great if Plesk supports a simple deployment workflow:

    Example when using two branches:
    - development
    - master

    Branch "development" will be automatically deployed by Plesk to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/dev.example.com => connected to https://dev.example.com
    Branch "master" will be automatically deployed by Plesk to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs => connected to https://www.example.com

    What about database connectivity?
    When using different databases for development and master you should not include your "database-connection.ini" into git but manually store it in the designated directory and edit via Plesk File Manager for example.

    What about access…

  6. remote smartermail ssl

    if smartermail is local install you can create a SSL for webmail. This doesn't work with remote smartermail.

    I would like plesk to introduce this so some kind of agent is running on the server so Plesk can communicate with IIS on the remote web server to copy SSLs and bindings.

  7. Alternative functionality for configuring FTP backup storage instead of <backup-manager> operator.

    There is a need for new functionality that allows us to configure FTP backup storage settings. Plesk UI is not an applicable way. As XMP-API <backup-manager> operator is deprecated in Plesk 17.8, alternative cli functionality is required to manage FTP backup storage settings. It was possible to perform via XML-API <set-remote-storage-settings> node of <backup-manager> operator.

  8. More out of the Box configuration for Microcaching (Nginx)

    As far as now in Plesk 17.8.9 Beta there are just limited options to configurate Nginx Mircocache.

    There is no option to Cache every time.
    Even if you de-select all of the "Bypass cache when" Rules your file looks like that.

    /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.tld/conf/nginx.conf

    [...]
    proxynocache $nocache;
    proxy
    cachebypass $nocache;
    [...]

    But I want Microcache to Cache even if nocache is set.
    Also these values are not configurable:

    For Microcache

    proxycachevalid
    proxycachebackgroundupdate
    proxy
    cacheignoreheaders
    proxycachebuffersize
    proxy
    cachebuffers
    proxy
    cachebusybufferssize
    proxy
    cachetempfile…

  9. Statistic usage per each page on website

    I can see the bandwidth of each domain on my webserver. But now i came with the idea (I dont know if it was requested before, or if it is a feature of the web host edition only) that you can see the bandwidth each page uses, so you can see it for the whole domain, but also every page you have in your plesk folder, so you have a more detailed overview what people like to look at on your page.Maybe a calculator how many mb one user uses (there are tools on the web for this, but something…

  10. Notification with list of expiring subscriptions

    Currently, "Subscription expiration warning" notification is sent per subscription.

    The feature to manage notification with all expiring subscriptions would be very useful

  12. WHMCS module / API to provision Docker containers.

    Docker support is already a killer of Plesk (something I had begged for in WHM/cPanel before switching).

    It would be epic if I could allow customers to purchase and provision a Docker container automatically from WHMCS. Obviously, there would have to be some tight control and they would only be pre-defined images. It must be a list of images that I curate since many Docker images do not provide sufficient environmental variables - example: official Redis doesn't let you pass a password, but others like bitnami/redis and
    frodenas/redis allow you to pass REDIS_PASSWORD, which is necessary for a shared environment…

  13. Allow to setup and customize Nginx directives for Docker globally

    Currently, additional nginx directives can be set per domain however, it would be handy to be able to set additional directives on a global level.

  18. let the user manage the disk space while the subscription is suspended.

    Let the subscriber delete the emails by him/herself to make some space when the allowed disk space is overused. Now we can't do anything to make space once the subscription is suspended. Have to call the support every time. It's really fraustrating!!!

  19. forwarding HTTP(S) requests from the source server to the target

    In case of migration and the customer use 3rd party Name servers, it would be useful to be able to redirect all requests that come to old ip to the new server ip.
