  1. Add a predefined group called "Anonymous visitors to this web site"

    I'm new to Plesk. In File Manager, I was trying to give full Read/Download permissions for a nested set of folders within my web site, to any anonymous visitor. It is not clear how to do this. I had to make a support call. Save yourself some time by adding relevant hints or help to the File Manager / Permissions page.

  4. Ability to specify what WordPress sets are available for customers in Service plan

    For now, all the existing at "WordPress > Sets" sets are available for customers when they install WordPress.
    The idea is to limit available sets in service plan, like available applications in "Applications" tab.

    Use case:

    Be able to respond to the event and write a program to do things like: a) commit the changes to the local git repository and push them to origin, b) trigger an alert in the monitoring system

    This is about shipping Plesk with email notification messages translated into all supported languages. Let’s find out how important this feature is for out customers. Please vote this request up to let us know you need it.

    As a temporary workaround, Plesk administrators can provide their own custom translations in Tools & Settings / Notifications.

  13. Autoreply works based on calendar picks

    It autogenerates an email based on the text and variable fields based on calendar pick. You choose a standard email from your pre-generated emails and it gets updated through calendar.

    e.g. "Dear all, I will be on holidays from <<DD>> of <<MONTH>> to <<DD>> of <<MONTH>>..

    e.g. "Dear all, i will be out on sick leave from <<DD>> of <<MONTH>> to <<DD>> of <<MONTH>>.

    This is for people that need to manage the autoreplies of all their colleagues and need to manually input all this each time. For example if for that employee last autoreply was of sick leave. I…

  14. Manage placeholders of extension notifications.

    In Obsidian it's possible to add different placeholders to Plesk notifications(for example "subscription overuse").

    {{ domainname }}
    {{ reseller
    login }}

  16. Be able to export PHP and Extensions settings globally

    As per Audit purposes, there is a need to perform the PHP and Extensions settings globally.

    For now, it can be done manually and with a lot of work through CLI but it would be great to have this feature implemented so it can be done easily and from within the Plesk user interface.

  17. Allow customers to change Document root with out allowing them to manage the domain name

    Service plans should be more granular, it should be possible to allow the customer to change the Document root without allowing them to manage the domain name, etc.

    Basically the objective would be to have split the "Domains management" permission.

  18. OWASP security recommendation hide php version from web server by default

    I've noticed that in a default plesk installation the web server is configured to disclose php version. This could be exploited especially with a lot of websites running insecure php versions still.

    I think it's not much trouble to implement this simple "security through obscurity" step to not disclose this information and help attackers detect vulnerabilities in PHP itself.

  19. PHP Openssl extension customization

    Enabling Tools & Settings > PHP Settings > Openssl does not provide a box for default config file customization. The default one is c:\usr\local\ssl\openssl.cnf.

    It would be nice to have the possibility to customize this value from Plesk

  20. Email notifications/alerts for Modsecurity (WAF)

    It will be great to have the ability to receive an email notification from Modsecurity (WAF) when protection has been breached with corresponding breach information (SQL injection, Command injection, Cross-site scripting, etc.).
