Increase max username length for MySQL to 32 characters
In Plesk MySQL database usernames are limited to 16 characters, however MySQL 5.7+ allows usernames for up to 32 characters. Please update the max length limit in Plesk.
If username is too long Plesk will show an abstract error like 'Database user name is invalid'. In case of too long usernames, the error could be more descriptive.

Have a server hostname as MX with a higher rating until SNI for postfix is not there
As right now there is no SNI for mailserver (ex. postfix), and servername should be used for connection to avoid SSL warnings, it would be great to have a hostname as MX in DNS template that will have higher rating then the mx.example.com.
Of course that is something easy to do on my side, however having it there by default would be really nice.

Add customization option for "Configure Email Client" window
Suggest adding the ability to customize Domains > example.com > Email Addresses > Mail information" pop-up help icon. The following sections should be editable:
Configure Email Client
Manual SetupCurrently it is hard-coded and it's not possible to officially customize the text, or, say, the link that leads to Plesk documentation that describes basic setup steps on default ports.
Reasoning:
The outgoing server port 25 is blocked by most ISPs and will not work, we encourage SSL/TLS encryption on port 465
Incoming Server Ports, we encourage SSL/TLS encryption on IMAP port 993 or POP port 995
We encourage our clients…

This functionality was added in Plesk Obsidian RTM release. We suggest you upgrade to the latest version and check it out.

add switch to enable/disable "restart_apache_gracefully" option via admin ui
By default, every time you modify hosting / apache / nginx or ssl settings for ANY websites, plesk will restart apache server and during that time ALL websites on the server are down returning "Connection time out" or "502 Bad Gateway" errors.
Even if such changes are made by clients from their accounts, all websites will be down during the next restart.
"restartapachegracefully" option will help to avoid this and tell apache to reload the config on the fly.
it is not perfect, but it is still better than seeing 502 Bad gateway every n-th seconds on any…

Option to disable wp-cron and set up crontab
Add an option to WordPress Toolkit to disable wp-cron.php execution and optionally create a real cron job.
You would have to add:
define('DISABLEWPCRON', true);
to wp-config.php and than give the admin a choice to set up a cron job with custom times (e.g. every 10Min or 6h).See: https://www.siteground.com/tutorials/wordpress/real-cron-job/
12 votesThe ability to disable wp-cron was added in WPT 4.7. Users can enable a switch on each site, disabling wp-cron execution. This will also create a scheduled task in Plesk which you can modify to change the execution frequency.
Server administrators can also choose to enable this feature on all new WordPress sites. This is done on WPT Settings screen.

Display DKIM Public Key in the Web Interface
Currently the only way to get the DKIM key is to decode the private key from the shell when using an external DNS service, however it would be nice if the public key is just being displayed in the web interface so the user can see it and add it to the external DNS.
56 votesStarting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.35 DKIM public key is shown in the pop-up window on the Mail Settings page of the particular domain.
