  1. PHP Extensions Installer

    I would love to see PHP Extensions Installer like other panels cPanel and DirectAdmin have it. Can we see a feature where we install needed PHP Extensions from Plesk rather than SSH into server and install?

  2. Custom labels in WP Toolkit

    This idea was already mentioned on: https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/39722035-custom-labels-in-wp-toolkit-and-additional-filteri

    And to give some ideas of what custom labels could be added:
    - managed / unmanaged
    - notes about who manages the site
    - notes about special environments besides production / staging / ...

    It would be less work to not have to look up these informations for each site and be able to just add a short custom label. For us these labels do not need to be filtered, but it would be a nice-to-have to have this addition like described in the original thread.

    Custom labels are now available in WPT v6.0. Details:


    • All labels now require users to input a label text. 
    • Labels can have different colors (chosen from a predefined palette)
    • Labels can be private (visible only to the person who adds the label) or non-private (visible to and manageable by everyone who can access the site in WPT)
    • Several private labels (up to five) can be added to a single WP site at once
    • Only one non-private label per site can be added
    • Existing labels were converted to non-private labels with the same text (their color is a bit different, though)


    Let us know if you have any additional feedback.

  3. Manage Wordpress updates, themes and pluging via CLI

    It is only possible to install a new WordPress instance with such options:
    https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/cli-linux/using-command-line-utilities/wptoolkit-wordpress-toolkit.78685/

    For example:
    plesk ext wp-toolkit --install -domain-name <domain> -auto-updates true -plugins-auto-updates true -themes-auto-updates true

    The other way is to manage it via Plesk GUI for existing domains:
    https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002224733

    Please add a feature to manage all updates for existing wordpress domains via SSH/WP-CLI

  8. Start docker container with additional parameters

    Usually, when I use existing docker images from docker-hub or even my own, there are plenty of options I would like to provide on start of a new container. Currently plesk does not support that. From the commandline a docker-container can be instantiated with several image-specific parameters. I would like to be able to do that from plesk , too.

  10. 1 Click install wordpress core files

    Hi,

    A must have feature would be to have a button to 1 click install wordpress core files.

    Lets say you got a wordpress site with wordpress 4.9.
    This wordpress got hacked, you got tons of files infected in wordpress core.
    In one click wp toolkit can replace all website's cores files with fresh ones.

    That would help handling with hacked websites in a matter of minutes, instead of doing it manually.

  11. Cross-platform migrations of the e-mails

    Add the ability to perform cross-platform migrations of the emails even for external 3rd party mail services.
    For now, it is only possible to use "Mail Importing" feature of the Site Import extension but it only migrates one mailbox at a time.
    The alternative way is to use 3rd party IMAP migration tools to copy email content, or copy it manually but this operation was not tested by Plesk.

  12. Be prepared for Debian Bullseye

    Debian Bullseye should be released in Summer 2021.

    For Buster, it took a whole year to have a compatible Plesk version. Please improve on that and aim to have a version ready when Buster arrives.

  14. docker logs

    Docker containers' logs are not being rotated and in time occupies a lot of space.
    It would be nice if there was an option to specify flags like:
    --log-driver json-file
    --log-opt max-size=50
    --log-opt max-file=2

  15. Add the possibility to define which theme will be set by default after the WordPress installation

    For example when we add the required theme into the WordPress set, after the installation the "Twenty Twenty" theme will be set as default.

    Please add the possibility to define which theme will be set by default after the WordPress installation as via the CLI method as via Plesk GUI.

    The CLI method is important here because some customers use only this method for a WordPress installation.

    We have released this feature in WPT 5.2 update. You can use GUI or CLI to choose a theme that should be activated upon the installation of a set.

    CLI command example: plesk ext wp-toolkit —sets -operation activate-theme -set-id ID -theme-id THEME_ID
    If you’re using GUI, go to Sets and click on “+ Add Themes” button next to the corresponding theme.

    Let us know on our forum (talk.plesk.com) if you encounter any issues.

  16. Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity) for NGINX and Apache

    Hi,

    Please consider implementing Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity) for NGINX and Apache in the next Plesk update.

    At the moment any Plesk user if he wants to use Mod Security (official version supported by Plesk) is forced to use it as a web server:

    • Apache

    or

    • Apache + NGINX

    Any Plesk user who wants to use only NGINX as a web server and without using Apache at the moment cannot use Mod Security because Plesk does not currently support it for NGINX exclusively web servers.

    Here are some of the advantages of Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity and these…

  17. Ability to add MX DNS record with a custom priority from Plesk GUI

    Currently, MX record the dropdown priority options are available at an interval of "5".

    However, Google Mail and G-Suite require to create MX-record with a priority 1, which is not available in Plesk.

    There is similar request here https://talk.plesk.com/threads/google-mail-dns-wont-validate-unless-mx-priority-is-1.357702/

    Please, add ability to set other MX priorities in Plesk interface.

  18. Allow changing additional wp-cron task settings

    When "Disable wp-cron.php option" is enabled, it is possible to customize only task's execution time, or it will be re-created with the default settings (details: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/administrator-guide/73391/#setting-up-a-regular-run-of-wp-cron-php).

    Add an option to customize other wp-cron.php task's properties (description, send notifications or not, etc).

    The Docker extension allows you to "Save as Image" existing containers and to "Upload image" to Docker if you have images saved locally.

    Plesk now supports launching a Portainer container. Portainer is container management software that makes it easier to manage Docker containers. It also allows you to export from Docker and import images to Docker. We would love to hear your feedback on our forum at https://talk.plesk.com.

  20. Add SSH2 extension to PHP default extensions to improve security

    Hi,

    Please consider add SSH2 extension to PHP default available extensions.

    To be able to use FTP over SSH (SFTP) the SSH2 extension must be installed on PHP.

    IN SHORT: SFTP (SSH2 EXTENSION) = SECURITY

    SFTP means secure file transfer via Secure Shell (or SSH), hence the name SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). The two devices (server and client) communicate via a single channel, that of SSH, in which the remote file management commands are sent and where the file transfer takes place. By default, the only port required for SFTP is 22, the same as SSH.

    SFTP implements the…
