  1. .Net Toolkit: Automatically Restart Application after having published new Version

    .Net Toolkit: Automatically Restart Application after having published new app version.

    When setting up a .Net App using your .Net Toolkit (which works great), it would be amazing if the app could be restarted automatically after having pushed a new version to the git publish repository.

    Currently, one has to disable and then enable the application manually. Restart by the way has no effect - at least not what I have seen so far.

    This change would be amazing. Thank you!

  2. Make the navigation tree adjustable in width.

    I use nested folders on my site. The navigation tree does not have sufficient width to show them without constantly moving the bottom slider. Either the ability to drag the vertical scroll or a 'setting' would be extremely useful.

    Show password protected directories in the overview of websites. A key symbol would be very cool to show websites, which are protected.

  4. Limit maximum crontab frequency and preventing cronjobs pile-up

    Plesk administrator should be able to limit the maximum crontab frequency allowed for user's crontab (example: deny the creation of cronjob that run more often than once in 5 minutes)

    Crontab pile-up should be prevented, so a user can't run a cron job if the same job isn't finished yet.

    Thank you for your idea.

    For the time being, please consider that a script that is started via cronjob, should check itself if another instance of the same script is already running, if there is a risk that a further instance causes problems. Crontab cannot check that. 

    Also, please be aware that users are not bound to repeat actions in a script in a while-loop. They can easily start a script every 10 minutes, yet let it run over and over again by just putting their content into a while-loop, maybe even wait a few seconds after each iteration. So limiting them to create cronjobs for only every n minutes will not keep users from executing scripts all the time.

    We'd like to hear more from other users what they think about the idea. If it still becomes popular, it might find its way into a future version of the…

  5. Add a column to Domain List to show if SSL is installed

    On the domain list, it would be helpful and save a LOT of time by having an additional column to show if a domain has SSL installed on it. See Image

  6. Add a "Service Plan" column in the Subscriptions list

    We absolutely miss a "Service Plan" column in the Subscriptions list.
    This is very annoying not knowing which Service Plan a Subscription is using.

  7. Implement Alert System for nginx Service Failures in Plesk

    Introduce a feature in Plesk to automatically detect and notify administrators through Plesk panel (if accessible) and email alerts when the nginx service fails to start or encounters any issues to ensure immediate awareness and prompt resolution.

  8. consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.

    It would be great that plesk repair db checks the consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.

    This can be reproduced by adding some additional php directives via Plesk UI for example.com domain and then removing them from table PhpSettingsCustom via plesk db command.

  9. An option to change 'from' field in Plesk email notifications when using MSMTP

    Currently, it's possible to change the 'from' field in Plesk email notifications only when Postfix or Qmail is installed. The change cannot be applied when using MSMTP.

    Please implement an option in Plesk to change the 'from' field in email notifications when using MSMTP.

  10. Add a feature wizard / feature showcase for feature on updates

    TL;DR: This is a feature request for adding a feature wizard/showcase (for lack of a better name) to Plesk. Something that simply let's administrators choose whether they want to enable the new features that have become available when a Plesk update has been installed.

    Detailed use case:
    Currently, often new features are enabled by default when a Plesk update gets installed on existing Plesk installations. This is not always desirable and can cause confusion with Plesk server administrators. For example administrators might not want to enable new features directly as they become available because they want to familiarize themself with the feature first. Which…

  11. Create the option "Maximum number of incremental backups to store" on Plesk

    Currently, it is possible to limit the "Maximum number of full backups to store" which is valid for Full backups only, it would be good to have a similar option to limit the "Maximum number of incremental backups to store".

    It may be useful in cases when it's required to store the incremental backups e.g. last month and have full backups from the previous months also.

  13. Allow setting MAILFROM field in crons from Plesk Interface

    When a customer adds a cronjob within the Plesk interface through "Scheduled tasks", they can set the recipient (MAILTO field) of the cron with the "Send notifications to" field, but there is no option to set the sender (MAILFROM field). By default, the sender for crondaemon is user@server.tld, which in our case causes SPF errors with the receiving mail server of the recipient.

    We do not give our clients CLI access, so they cannot manually set it with the crontab -e command, nor should they (the whole point of the Plesk Interface is for GUI-style ease of use). Could…

    Thank you for your idea and your additional explanation. As the use case is probably an edge case, we'll need to see whether many other users believe that this is an important feature that they need.

    If you believe it is an important feature, please continue voting for this feature request.

  14. Additional option for overuse policy- Overuse is allowed up to x %

    I would like to have option to set overuse policy as:

    Overuse is allowed up to x %

    - after percentage threshold is crossed then suspend and send e-mail notification
    - with ability to set up percentage freeley, but suspend when disk usage is 110 % or 130 % and so on.

  15. Add a snapshot of the current processes list to existing CPU / memory usage exceeded emails

    The Monitoring extension already triggers email notifications when resource usage exceeds the allocations, but if usage has already settled before you notice these emails and click through to the server, it's difficult to find which domain was the cause.

    Adding a snapshot of the current processes list to these emails when it's the CPU or memory usage thresholds that have been exceeded would be very useful. Potentially just the "Domains only" filtered list would suffice. Maybe trimmed to the top 50 or so processes ordered by CPU or memory, whichever is appropriate at the time.

  17. Add unique identifier to login event parameters

    Currently the user login/logout event only gives a contact name as event parameter. This is not a unique identifier since multiple users can have the same contact name. In the psa log_actions database table the username is saved. Please also add the username to the event parameters so there's a unique identifier which user logged in our out.

  19. Prohibit user from deleting domains

    Hello,
    Another customer's domain names were accidentally erased from his control panel, according to us. Please give us a choice to prevent this from occurring again. Alternatively, provide us access to a internal ticket system, which requires staff approval.

    Thank you for your idea. When deleting a domain, a clear warning an confirmation dialog is displayed. Domains are only deleted when that additional dialog is confirmed. https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/41416156-delete-domain 

    Nevertheless, we'll consider adding a feature that users won't be permitted to delete domains at all, if this request becomes popular.

  20. Custom Temporary Domain Names

    When you create a new site, you get the amazing option to generate a Temporary domain name.

    However, these are randomly generated, which makes finding your dev site difficult, especially if you have a lot of them.

    I get that you can change the domain after creation, but hopefully it won't be such a large change to the plesk code to allow you to alter the domain name at creation from "silly-lalande.90-65-15-200.plesk.page" to "(custom-website-name).90-65-15-200.plesk.page"
