Add the functionality to modify the notify-to-soa option from within Plesk and make it persistent
Add the functionality to modify the notify-to-soa option from within Plesk and make it persistent.
Right now it can be done as per the workaround shown here: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001713434
However, this solution is not persistent as the file /etc/named.conf gets overwriten everytime a change is made in Plesk.

Add functionality to install, modify and manage wordpress or joomla via API
Right now you can set a service plan to have WordPress or Joomla pre-installed with any new subscriptions, however the installation data such as admin usernames, passwords, site titles are randomized more so if the subscription/domain is setup via API. I think it could be nice if there was an option to install them with custom data or customize them via API. such that when installing via API, i can explicitly set the site title, admin username and passwords, database usernames and passwords etc.

Add custom dns recursion settings via Plesk GUI or CLI and avoid overwriting by Plesk
Going to Tools & Settings > DNS Template > DNS Recursion Settings, it's not possible to set a custom list of IPs or hostnames, it's only possible to choose between different options: any host, localnets, localhost.
As a workaround to this limitation, i'ts required to customize the options section in the /etc/named.conf file, but it gets overwritten by Plesk.
Please, add the possibility to customize the dns recursion settings via Plesk GUI and to keep the custom allow-recursive set in /etc/named.conf file.

Plesk Web Admin version comes with a limited WP Toolkit.
It updates WP automatically and the option to deactivate the autoupdate is blocked because of licensing.
I understand that to handle updates from Plesk one should buy a Toolkit license but for the basic free version it should be possible do disable updates.
Thank you.

WordPress Toolkit: Reseller Plans to use individual sets
A a reseller I would like to be able to create my own specific plug-in 'sets' for my WordPress customers. Normally this should be done at this level, not by the 'top level' administrator.
Maybe it is possible to use the same tab and visualize created sets from resellers with an icon.

We’ve also managed to ensure that resellers can automatically provision WordPress with one of their sets when a new subscription is created.

Please show what is about to be deleted in the confirmation dialogs
I appreciate a lot that you ask users if they really want to delete.
In many cases one doesn't know if they have (unintentionally) selected too much. So it would be nice if either a list of objects (subdomains, mail addresses or what ever) or at least the number of items being deleted would be shown.2 votesThe improvement is available since the 18.0.38 version (#PPP-54067)

Provide ModSecurity 3 modules for supported operating systems
ModSecurity 3.0 was released about a year and a half ago, and the 2.x branch support seems to decline.
In addition to that there are some features of ModSecurity 3.x, that would be nice to have:
* Proper support for webservers other than Apache, without having to resort to an Apache-like wrapper module running within other web servers
* Better performance due to the architecture rewrite
* GeoIP2 databases support out-of-box (MaxMind no longer provides new Legacy-GeoIP databases, so this would be very good to have)Considering that newer *nix OS (Debian 10, CentOS 7 through EPEL) ship libmodsecurity-3, I…

ability to disable Wildcard certificate option in Let's Encrypt
Add ability to disable Wildcard certificate option in Let's Encrypt
19 votesAvailable since Let’s Encrypt Extension 2.8.3.
https://ext.plesk.com/packages/f6847e61-33a7-4104-8dc9-d26a0183a8dd-letsencrypt
“2.8.3 (24 October 2019)
[+] Introduced the allow-wildcard-certificates option (true by default) under the ext-letsencrypt section in the panel.ini file. If set to false, the option hides the feature of issuing wildcard SSL/TLS certificates in the interfaces of the Let’s Encrypt and SSL It! extensions.Note: For the same purpose, users could earlier use the acme-protocol-version setting with the acme-v01 value. If you have this configuration, we recommend that you start using allow-wildcard-certificates set to false because the ACMEv1 protocol will soon reach end of life."
