Provide migration licenses 24/7, not only on workdays
Often times migrations are done on weekends. I'd like to be able to get a migration license as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12388069544215-How-to-get-Plesk-Web-Host-edition-trial-license-for-migration at any time. The current workflow where this can only be requested and handled on weekdays during business hours can block my own workflow, e.g. when I have and emergency and absolutely must migrate.

Add a way to force sets during custom WP installation
Add a way to force customers to use our defined plugin sets when doing a custom WordPress installation.
Currently, there's an option to install no set. It should be possible to hide this from customers, so they have to choose from one of our sets.

Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
The Sitejet team is working on a "copy and paste" website feature which allows users to copy a website and "import" it in another Sitejet account. It is also already possible to see a preview of the website in Sitejet Builder (screenshot -> Open preview website).

Simplify the process of uploading 3rd Party Vendor SSL certificates forcing CA part to be filled
Make easier to understand that while uploading 3rd party vendor SSL certificates the CA part needs to be filled along with the key and crt parts. Currently its not mandatory.
Consider the possibility of using the "old ca file" when a certificate is renewed and the crt and key parts are uploaded manually as a new certificate.

Bring back a "late adopter" version
On servers with many users, bugs can have a significant impact on the business reputation and support volume. Plesk once had a "late adopter" option so that updates were not done right after publication, but a bit later, when most of the product issues discovered were already solved by hotfixes or patches (minor updates). Maybe this could be brought back into the product as an option for Plesk updates?

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.
1 voteThank 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…

plesk advisor score functionality needs enhancement
The Plesk advisor complains about not having installed the Plesk firewall, but it doesn't check iptables rules. I have setup my own iptables rules deriven and enhanced from the Plesk firewall. My setup also supports ipset rules which Plesk doesn't.
Thus, the advisor score mechanism should check if iptables rules are present and setup sophisticatedly.

Add a "Status" column in the Scheduled Tasks (Cron Jobs) list
The status of a task is currently indicated by a grey or green icon in the "Schedule" column.
It is typical for number of servers to have numerous tasks (let's say.... a bunch of them!)
Adding the availability to sort tasks by their status will be a great help.3 votesThank you for your idea. We understand that you would like to have the status icon in a separate column, making it possible to sort all jobs by their status "active" or "inactive".

Improve speed of Migration Manager re-sync process
Because there is a re-sync option, the overall speed of the initial data transfer with Plesk Migration Manager (PMM) doesn't matter that much (to us), however when re-syncing the speed of the process is super important because domain web and email services on the source server must be down/offline to prevent data inconsistencies. The re-sync process currently takes roughly 1 hour per 100 subscriptions.
Here's three ways the re-sync process could be improved to minimize web and email service downtime:
# 1. Fetch configuration data ONCE
PMM batches 5 subscriptions at a time, and prior to each batch of 5,…

Allow user to set timezone for File manager
It would be extremely helpful to be able to set the timezone in the File manager. Currently the file manager shows the file timestamp in the timezone where the server is running. A user is not always aware of the physical location of the server to which they have logged in.
There should be a setting (or a toggle) on the file manager to allow the user to see the timezone that is being used for display. It would be even better to allow the user to set the timezone for which they wish to see the timestamps. The optimal…

Plesk IP management logic of VPN interfaces/IPs
Please do the adjustments to the IP management logic of Plesk - currently it starts to manage VPN intefaces IPs by default, and it can cause issues with Apache and Nginx.
Currently it is possible to ignore such interfaces via panel.ini, but it has to be configured prior to adding the VPN interface to server. It would be great if Plesk would show such addresses in IP Addresses menu and ask if it should manage these addresses/intefaces or just ignore them.1 vote
