Nginx-only hostings (without Apache component installed on Plesk)
Hi,
It seems some Plesk users would like to have the ability to install Plesk without the Apache component (apache-free, nginx-only setup).
We do not clearly understand cases when it is required. Why using "Nginx-Only Hosting" (https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/customer-guide/72320/#nginx-only-hosting) on a per-website base is not an option (which also provides more flexibility)? Could you please let us know how this feature should work in terms of workflow, in your opinion? We welcome any feedback and would be happy to receive examples to investigate the question in more detail.2 votesThank you for your idea. Could you tell us which scenarios you want to enable with this functionality?

Support for HTTP/2 on apache (without using nginx as proxy)
Hi,
It seems some Plesk users would like to have support for HTTP/2 on apache directly (without using nginx as a proxy).
We do not clearly understand cases when it is required. Why using nginx as a proxy in front of the Apache is not an option? Could you please let us know how this feature should work in terms of workflow, in your opinion?

Add ability to convert WPB websites into Sitejet
Please add the ability to convert WPB websites into Sitejet. There are quite a lot of old websites operating on WPB, so it would be great to have a way to import/convert them to Sitejet format.

Lower passenger log level to 3 by default
In plesk the log level of passenger in /etc/nginx/conf.d/phusion-passenger.conf and /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/passenger.conf
is set to 5, which is a debug log level https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/config/nginx/reference/#passenger_log_levelThis is too high and creates logs of 300Mb within 2 days, it should be set to 3 by default

Hide ports from URL
We need some feature like a “docker proxy rules” in the Docker extension but without the Docker/Docker extension. The feature should work with Docker containers (?), Laravel, .NET, any other technology which creates its own web-server on a server and configures nginx proxy rules to transparently route traffic from a http/https://domain to a specific http/https://host:port.

Add possibility configure solutions from different CDN providers directly via Plesk
At the moment Plesk does not support any CDN solutions.
However, CDN is a useful feature that minimizes delays in loading web page content by reducing the physical distance between the server and the user.
Please add the possibility to configure solutions from different CDN providers directly via Plesk for example such as DigitalOcean CDN or Cloudflare CDN.22 votesThe new DNS Integration for Cloudflare extension is production-ready since Plesk 18.0.56, published October 10th, 2023. If you are using Cloudflare, you can now also benefit from the Cloudflare CDN.
Please comment which other CDN providers you are using in case this does not yet cater to your needs.

Allow separate webroot for wildcard subdomain and www
I'm looking for a way to use a different webroot for my www.domain.com and a different one for all the other subdomains.
I created domain.com, then created a wildcard subdomain for that domain, pointing to a different webroot.
The problem is that the wildcard subdomain hijacks the www subdomain as well.
domain.com is working correctly, but www.domain.com uses the wildcard subdomain's config.
I assume the problem is the order in which Apache reads the config files.5 votesThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

To remove the HTML body of nginx 301 302 redirects
When Nginx returns a 301 or a 302 redirect, it also returns a small useless HTML body.
<html>
<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx</center>
</body>
</html>You can see this body when you perform a "curl talk.plesk.com" for instance. However today, many major domains don't return a HTML body, it is the case of facebook.com, twitter.com, youtube.com and www.plesk.com .
Funny enough, when i do a "curl www.plesk.com" it returns no html body. It means that someone at plesk remove this html body. But in plesk onyx it will always return the default html body that I…3 votesThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular.

Supply versions of Apache newer than provided by OS vendors
Currently, Plesk supports Apache from the Linux vendor and does not provide its own Apache build. For example, CentOS 6 has Apache 2.2 by default.
Based on the article comment it would be good to have more recent Apache version in use: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213901685?page=1#comment_360001830960
Apache 2.4.6 was released in 2013 (!) in the meantime the latest version is Apache 2.4.46 (august 2020).
I understand Plesk cannot update Apache every time to a newer version, however still running 2.4.6 is a bit absurd.Furthermore there are quite a few CVE fixes in the newer versions along with several new performance tweaks /…

Make possible to manage limit_req_zone for nginx
modbw cannot be used for limiting connection when nginx enabled. Plesk does not provide out of box enabling and configuring limitation of connections for nginx. Please add support for limitreqzone which provide similar functionality as modbw for nginx so that it would possible to control such resources.
35 votesWe will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
However, please be aware that rate-limiting web traffic can and should normally be done using iptables as it is much more effective and resource savvy doing it on the operating system/kernel level. If there are issues with web traffic, it is best to not to let it get to the web server in the first place.
