Letsencrypt wildcard certificate, check dns and continue automatically
When creating a wildcard certificate for a domain where we are hosting the DNS, letsencrypt creates the required DNS record automatically, but then shows a dialog telling us to check the dns before continuing.
Since plesk created the DNS record and the DNS points to our server, the plugin should be able to verify that the DNS is good and continue automatically.
If we are not hosting the DNS and we have to manually create the record before continuing, the tools can easily display a 'check dns' button that will do the dns lookup and confirm if good or not.

Permission to manage hosting type
Add an additional permission that manages the ability to manage vhost type only (website, forwarding, no hosting). Currently this is bundled with "Domains management" permission, which if unchecked, will also not allow the creation of new domains.

Plesk Backup & Restore IV - protocol functionality
Plesk Backup & Restore IV
I personally think it's better to save all backup logs in a MariaDB / mySQL database table so that I can search for problems there later. So searchable logs with timestamps and users per domain / all domains, sometimes also by topic such as "email" / "database" / "files" / "configuration"

Plesk Backup & Restore III - Wrong Option
The output during import in any combination whether "database only", "files only", "configuration only" is really insufficient, no information is passed on, e.g. the individual steps mentioned above, when importing a "domain" the domains all run as above, but for which task and how far the individual task is completely missing. Perhaps the old progress bar should be kept and another one should be shown where the individual steps are carried out, the more details the better.
At the end after the import, unfortunately you can only see the "date and time" and not what was imported at all. I'm…

Remove All Files / Packages From The Previous Plesk Obsidian Release(s) As Part Of Plesk's Upgrade Process
As per the title. When any Plesk Obsidian release is upgraded to the next release, many files and/or packages are simply left in place and not removed as part of the Plesk installation process. Without patient and time-consuming manual "clean-up" exercises, all of these now unused and non-functional files and/or packages, simply accumulate and (just like garden weeds do in the real world) take up useful and valuable server real estate, but for no purpose. It's a little surprising that this is still happening, when nearly all software packages provide this as a default action.

Please Provide Better Notification Capabilities
Plesk needs a full featured notification solution, so users can customize what notifications they want to see, from whatever service is running on Plesk. For example the Plesk backups only allow for notification if the backup fails. Why not have a notification for either situation, success or failure. This is what I am referring to when I say the notifications need to be more robust.

Customize Plesk notifications for each customer
Currently, Plesk notifications (like "Subscription expiration", "Resource usage limits exceeded by subscription", etc.) are the same for all Plesk users.
It would be great to have a possibility to customize notifications individually for each subscription or customer to personalize information about payments and offers.

Let wp-cron run every minute by default
Currently, when enabling 'Take over wp-cron.php' and 'Create a replacement task (...)', the cron job that's created only runs twice an hour. (See screenshot attached)
This seems wrong; any Wordpress cronjob that needs to run at a higher interval, will fire too late.
There is no performance benefit to running wp-cron less often, in fact, it might cause performance problems, because late jobs would pile up.Can the default wp-cron.php interval be changed to every minute, please?
One source that offers some more explanation: https://wpengine.com/support/wp-cron-wordpress-scheduling/
Missed crons and crons that run too frequently can both be resolved by enabling the…

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?
