Add PHP shmop extension support useful for Wordpress performance and site health
When you run the Wordpress Helath Check under Wordpress Tools menù and you run a Plesk server you will get the following alert:
You should allow inter-process communication Performance
You should consider using shared memory (PHP shmop) to allow inter-process communication.Could I suggest to add the PHP shmop support?
I'm running PHP 8.3 and I'm not sure to use SSH command to try to get this extension working, will be nice if in the future this can be integrated in Plesk as ... today Wordpress is a very used CMS and we want always to have good performance.Thank…

Meanwhile, if you want to try to install shmop yourself, these are the general steps (provided here without warranty, try it on a test server before applying it to your production system):
1) Install Plesk PHP development package:
For RPM-based OS (CentOS, RHEL, CloudLinux):
# yum install plesk-php83-devel
For Debian-based OS (Debian, Ubuntu):
# apt install plesk-php83-dev build-essential
2) Check what's the currrent version of your PHP 8.0
# /opt/plesk/php/8.3/bin/php -v
3) Download PHP source based on the version of the step 2
For example:
# wget https://www.php.net/distributions/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Please pay special attention that the version matches the one determined in step 2!
4) Extract the .tar file of the PHP downloaded
# tar -xvjf /root/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Again, the version shown here…

Add curresponding CLASS / ID to each page in plesk
In order to support custom css themes, there should be a top class / id that represents the page we're viewing right now.
There is no way to say via CSS that we view smb/web/view or any other page. So Custom CSS rules are applied broadly to all pages, which limits the option to hide elements, add "::before, ::after" content, redesign specific pages and not all pages with certain CSS rules.How should it be implemented:
You can implement page classes / ids in the html tag or body tag or right after body tag.
For example:
1. In "smb/web/view",…6 votesThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Enable/disable TLS protocol versions through Plesk GUI
I should not have to use the CLI to enable/disable TLS. This should be a GUI change, just like it is within most browsers. It should also be granular enough to enable/disable one at a time. You provide a great GUI interface...stop making us use the CLI in many cases. Create an advanced section within your settings section for items like this. Force the admin to login when going into this advanced section and have this login logged, so it can be seen later on down the road.

In Plesk File Manager, add an option to move a directory when the destination location already has a directory with the same name
In Plesk File Manager, add an option "Overwrite existing directories" when moving a directory to a location that already has a directory with the same name.
Right now, it is required to manually remove/rename the directory before moving.
The option "Replace existing files" applies only to the files.

As explained in this thread:

Improvements for Outgoing Mail Control - block mailboxes that send messages to non-existent destination
It would be great to have the ability to temporarily block mailboxes/domains that send messages to non-existent recipients (external or internal destinations). Such messages not only get deferred and gets stuck in queue, but also increase chances of blacklisting server IP.

Manual Lock for Preservation of Specific Backups in Plesk Backup Manager
Introduce a functionality in Plesk Backup Manager that allows users to manually 'lock' specific backups, preventing their automatic deletion during the backup rotation process. This feature would enable administrators to preserve critical backups indefinitely, without the need to move files externally or re-upload them, thereby ensuring essential backups remain accessible and protected within the Plesk ecosystem.

Identify live domains by verifying they're reachable
I have two servers that basically just mirror my domains. When I need to update the operating system on one of them, I migrate to the other and repoint the IP addresses. Fairly simple, DIY manual failover basically. (BTW, it would be great if this was more automated with regular incremental backups to the failover server.)
When I'm on the "inactive" failover server (when the domains are pointed at the other server's IP address), there is no indication that the domains are not reachable by the current server's IP address, which leads to confusion when switching between browser tabs to…

WP Toolkit feature to detect plugin and theme conflicts
Please implement a function in the WP Toolkit that would detect plugin or theme conflicts. For example, cloning a website with WP Toolkit sometimes fails due to a plugin or theme that is interfering with the WP-CLI commands execution. Usually, running the same WP-CLI command with the --skip-plugins and/or --skip-themes flag allows the command to be executed successfully.
Currently, the WP Toolkit doesn't provide enough information why the cloning fails. It would be useful if there's a functional, which would provide more information on what particular plugin or theme is causing the issue.
14 votesThank you for the update. We can certainly attempt to improve the error/warning reporting during cloning processes. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.
