Placement of the delete database button
We would like to see a delete button inside the database options list to prevent accidental deletion of a database (Remove the delete button located at the database name level in the GUI. So that the delete button is located as in older versions.).
2 votesThank you for your feedback. At this point, the phpMyAdmin and Database deletion buttons at the upper right corner will remain as they are because this aligns better with the elements used in Dynamic List view in terms of consistency with the rest of the Plesk interface. Nevertheless, we appreciate your input.

Please allow 2FA for Plesk login to send auth code to user's registered email address as an option (not just to phone).
Please allow 2FA for Plesk login to send authentication code to the user's registered email address as an option (not only to a phone).
Webserver panel login is usually undertaken in an office environment. Work mobile phones are not always on hand at our workplace, because they are needed for staff who are out-of-office.1 voteThank you for your suggestion. However, implementing such an feature will eliminate the whole purpose of MFA. The point is to secure access even in the event of potentially compromised password and email account. Sending the codes directly to the email account of the user would be a security vulnerability.
If a particular user lost access to their MFA device, what you can do is deactivate MFA only for that particular user by:
* Logging into Plesk panel as the admin user
* Navigating to Extensions > Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) > Accounts tab
* Clicking on the Minus icon next to the corresponding user.
I hope that helps.

Can I suggest a server side loading progress bar? thanks
It would be possible to create an extension so that when the web loads a progress bar appears. But the progress bar appears before the page loads, that is, from the moment the request is made to the server. Thanks
2 votesThank you for your update. If I understand correctly, you would like to incorporate a progress bar into a web page that will load prior to the initial server response. Unfortunately, this is out of scope for a control panel to deliver. It will be best to consider consulting with a website developer. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Suggestion: Add a Dedicated Reverse Proxy Option in the Domain/Subdomain Setup
Currently, Plesk allows configuring reverse proxies through the "Apache & Nginx" tab under "Additional nginx directives." While functional, this approach can be tedious and less intuitive, especially for users managing multiple servers or specific use cases. Adding a dedicated "Reverse Proxy" option during domain or subdomain setup would greatly enhance usability and streamline the process.
For instance, when creating a subdomain, users could choose "Reverse Proxy" as a hosting type, alongside options like "Web Hosting" or "Mail Hosting." This feature could include an intuitive configuration interface with settings such as:
Specifying the target server (e.g., local machine or external server).…
1 voteThank you for your suggestion. Plesk is primarily designed as a web hosting control panel, with a focus on simplifying website and mail hosting management. Implementing a reverse proxy interface with the level of flexibility and customization you described would require significant architectural changes and expanding into advanced proxy management, particularly for game servers and similar setups, falls outside of our scope.
Additionally, standalone reverse proxy tools like Nginx Proxy Manager or similar solutions can be integrated alongside Plesk for more complex use cases. Solutions specifically designed for game server management might be better suited to such tasks.
With that said, we are closing the current request.

Feature Suggestion for Easier Website Migration Process
Dear Plesk Support Team,
I appreciate your response to my recent query. I understand that server-specific issues need to be handled by the hosting provider, but I’d like to take this opportunity to suggest a feature enhancement for Plesk.
During my recent experience, I faced challenges while trying to migrate an old .aspx website from the main domain to a subdomain and shift a WordPress website from a subdomain to the main domain. This process was more complex than expected, and it would be helpful if Plesk could offer a more user-friendly or automated tool for such domain and subdomain…

Show DNS zone settings to the customer without giving the ability to change it.
Currently, disabling DNS settings permission hides DNS menu. It would be better instead for the customer to be able to check their current settings without being able to change them.

Compatibility of MariaDB Upgrade Feature with CloudLinux
I would like to request compatibility between the MariaDB upgrade feature recently developed by Plesk and CloudLinux. The current upgrade feature is excellent for simplifying and enhancing the security of MariaDB upgrades, but it unfortunately does not support CloudLinux, which many users rely on for stability, security, and ease of use.
Ensuring compatibility with CloudLinux would greatly benefit users who use both platforms, making database upgrades smoother and reducing the need for complex, manual procedures. I also believe that providing specific documentation on database restoration, in case of upgrade failures during a manual process, would add considerable value for users,…
1 voteHello, thanks for your input! Unfortunately, we declined this request. CloudLinux provides own tools to upgrade MariaDB safely. Please check CloudLinux solution "Governor"

Update the security options to best practice for domains page
Tiny things, should be easily implemented:
1) For HSTS the recommended settings are
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload
Otherwise if you add it elsewhere (the server headers page) you have to turn this off or get two headers implemented, and you do not get the full security rating on that security page and looks like something is missing (plus inconvenient if you do not know what to do).
2) OCSP stapling is something no longer recommended, and probably should be removed. Perhaps this could be replaced with automatic setup of the DS and CAA records (especially given the range of providers…

Make Wordpress Toolkit aware of virtual directories and their PHP version
Scenario
You have a legacy site that only supports up to a certain version of PHP on the root of domainname.co.uk (let's say PHP 5.6)You also have a WordPress installation on domainname.co.uk/blog/ which is also a virtual directory.
Via virtual directory for the blog, you have selected PHP 8.2
WP Toolkit is not aware of the setting of the virtual directory and assumes the PHP version to be the same as the root.
After upgrading WP to 6.6.x WP Toolkit displays "Broken WordPress site" but the WordPress installation is actually fine.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion. WP Toolkit uses the panel's API to know which handler is used for a domain, and cannot support any manual configurations. For example you can create different domain for this site, with document root inside the docroot of the main site or proxy requests from the main domain's subfolder to the domain.
In these cases WP Toolkit can detect correctly the PHP handler for a site (just because there are panel's entities), and the site can be accessible via http in subfolder.

Introduce notification threshold on disk space usage
Customers exceed the allocated disk space. A notification is sent. But customers don't want this notification when they exceed the allocation, but BEFORE they exceed it so that they can react to a warning in a timely manner and won't face overuse charges.
Why is this a problem? Some users don't check their email regularly. They feel pressured to pay an overuse fee if they are not allowed "enough" time to react to an overuse situation.
Proposed feature: A notification threshold for disk space usage should be introduced to service plans in GB or percentage or a general threshold expressed…
