  2. Easy removal X-Powered-By HTTP headers

    By default the HTTP header 'x-powered-by: PleskLin' is added to HTTP responses.
    And with PHP, even the version number is included: 'x-powered-by: PHP/7.3.5'

    For security it is better to not give such information, as it may expose you are using outdated software with known vulnerabilities.
    Currently it is possible to remove these headers, but it requires some manual actions using SSH (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000385274)

    My suggestion is to create page to be able to manage such header additions for all websites and services.

  3. The ability to add metadata to the header of File Sharing

    I would like to be able to add metadata to the header of File Sharing.
    Currently as I can see the file, where such changes can be done, is hardcoded, so it will be perfect if I can do such changes in Plesk directly.
    Thank you.

  4. custom dkim selector name

    It's a shame you are obliged to have a DKIM selector (key) name of 'default', and there is no ability to rotate keys as once you update the 'dafault' key will change value, meaning messages sent under the prior key, also called 'default', will fail.

    GMail offers a nice option where you specify the selector name and so can rotate keys nicely. O365 has a more basis scheme were keys have to be called selevtor1 and selector2 (from memory), flip-flopping between the two. Not elegant.

    Gmail is the way to go...

    Since Plesk 18.0.56, published October 10th, 2023, It is possible to change the default DKIM selector to a custom one for a single domain or all new domains hosted on the server.

    You specify a custom DKIM selector for a domain in the domain’s mail settings.  To specify a custom DKIM selector for all new domains, add lines of the following pattern to the panel.ini file:

    [mail]

    dkimDefaultSelector = newselector

    Please let us know in your comments what you think about this new feature or if you have additional requests regarding this new feature.

  5. Support dynamically assigned IPv6 addresses on Plesk for Linux

    Currently, Plesk for Linux filters out IPv6 addresses that were assigned dynamically by use of Stateless Address Autoconfiguration, or other means: https://plesk.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000239114

    This greatly limits IPv6 functionality in Plesk due to the fact that all hyperscalers (Amazon, Google, Azure, Vultr, etc.) provide IPv6 addresses using the autoconfiguration method.

    Hi, I'm glad to inform you that the request is completed and ability to exclude databases from the backup is available since Plesk Obsidian 18.0.54

  9. Be prepared for Debian Buster

    Last time, it took the Plesk team quite a long time to support the new Debian version. As Debian Buster will probably be released in the following months, it would be very nice if a new Plesk version was available shortly after.

    Hi,
    I’m glad to inform you that Debian 10 “Buster” Support for Plesk Obsidian is now Available with Plesk Obsidian 18.0.28 update #1!
    Note: we do not consider support for any dist-upgrade scenarios for Debian 10, the best way to move from old Debian or other OS is Plesk Migrator.

    Just to remind, you always can check ETAs for new Operation Systems support in Plesk Obsidian FAQ: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/faq/#s1q6

    Full Changelog for Plesk Obsidian 18.0.28 Update 1 is here: https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18028-mu1

  10. Remove Subdomain Confirmation Message should contain Dubdomain Name

    When user clicks on Remove Subdomain, their only worry is whether they are deleting the right one. If system shows the SubDomain Name in the Confirmation Message then it would be very useful.

  11. Please remove the very annoying suggestion window when creating support tickets

    It's really very annoying if the input field in the right area is reduced again and again when opening support tickets in order to offer unsuitable support articles. If the articles were at least helpful, the whole thing would still make sense. However, this is rarely the case. Even if you click it away and enter a new word, it will reappear immediately.

  12. Add historical CPU and RAM usage by subscription in Plesk Repair Kit

    Currently, Plesk Repair Kit extension does monitor in real time the CPU and RAM usage per domain: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007784053-Is-it-possible-to-monitor-CPU-Memory-like-in-Health-Monitor-per-domain-subscription-basis-

    However, it doesn't register/save and historical usage. It would be really helpful that this extension would keep a CPU and RAM usage history, a graph, a timeline, in order to plan CPU and RAM limits set by CGroups Manager.

  15. Exclude plugins from auto-update

    The auto-update is great, but it is even better to exclude plugins from the auto-update. Some plugins breaks the site or plugins are customized.

    Hey everyone, WordPress Toolkit v5.7 adds the ability to configure automatic updates for each individual plugin and theme on a site. This should allow you to exclude any plugins from autoupdates. Site-wide autoupdate policies were also adjusted accordingly.

  16. Show selected items when removing Service Plan, Subscription, Customer, Domain or Reseller

    Currently, when trying to remove any Service Plan, Subscription, Domain, Customer or Reseller, the following text is shown:

    "Confirm that you want to remove the selected domains"

    However, it would be perfect to show the selected items and the selected quantity.

  17. Be able to enable all security options from WordPress Toolkit on all instances via CLI

    Be able to enable all security options recommended by the WordPress Toolkit on all instances via CLI so that it would save customers' time as they would not need to login to the Panel and select all of them manually on all instances.

    Using NFS shares to store hosted websites’ vhost directories is supported since Plesk Obsidian 18.0.49, published December 20th, 2022. To enable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

    [webserver]
       syncModeOnRemoveConfiguration = true

  19. Ability to add sets to existing WordPress instance via Toolkit

    It would be great to have the ability to add sets to existing WordPress instance via Toolkit. On most occasions when we place an existing WordPress site under management have have a pre defined set of plugins we install. These need to be installed one at a time or via script. A number of developers have also expressed ability to install their own sets to an existing WordPress instance.

  20. Nginx Cache purge

    Please, consider to implement some sort of cache purge functionality available from Plesk web interface, because if cache TTL gets extended to match Site needs, it gets complicated, i.e. need to go over Linux Terminal to purge it. A Wordpress integration would be just super fantastic, but I understand, it is not realistic to wish it.
    Thank you!
