  2. Additional account for reseller with same permissions

    We as web agency have the following use-case:

    • We run the Plesk server

    • A customer of us acts like a reseller for us and we configure him as reseller in Plesk

    • This reseller creates his customers with their subscriptions. The reseller manage different customers with different subscriptions.

    • Our customer acting as reseller has a team managing his customers.

    • Each team member of the managing team of our customer (acting as reseller) should have his own user. These users should have access to all subscriptions of all the customers of the reseller.

  4. Add the possibility to back up/include selected files and folders in the Backups

    Currently, it's possible to exclude some files/folders from backup creation: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000773605

    But this feature should be improved because in some cases excluding is not a valid solution.

    Let's say that there are multiple files and folders, as you can imagine, the list of exclusion would be too long and it would require a lot of time to create it. Moreover, the list will need to be updated each time there are new folders on the webspace.

    Due to these reasons, an improvement should be provided to this feature, the customer should be able to create a backup including only the…

  5. Allow disabling the access to web-stat but make it possible to access the statistics through Plesk

    Hello,

    Allow disabling the access to web-stat but make it possible to access the statistics through Plesk

    This would make access to the web statistics not possible to any external user or having a password-protected folder.
    But the access should remain possible using Plesk UI.

  6. Remove Local Backups Automatically after a Restoration

    When you want to Restore a Backup from FTP, first this backup it's downloaded to the Local Plesk Server and then the restoration starts.

    At the end of the restoration process, the Local Backup it's still there, maybe it's better to save this space deleting this Local Backup and maintain only the FTP backup which was downloaded.

  7. customize advisor rules

    The advisor should be customizable (ignore rule / change weighting) - many of the suggestions could be obsolete - and some of them seem to me to be advertising rather then advice (especially some points with "big score reward).

    some examples

    • a domain is used in plesk only for email or dns. The a-record points to another system which is secured by ssl - but the advisor tells me it is not ??? It should do a real check - not look into the database. Or marked as "done" or "ignore".

    • my plesk server is shielded by a firewall and…

  9. Mass import database dump

    There are scenarios where multiple databases for multiple domains have to be restored.

    In such cases, it would be great to be able to mass import dumps from database backup files instead of going one by one manually importing them on a domain basis

  11. 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.

  12. Add new database formats to ODBC Data Sources menu

    Add .accdb and newer Excel versions to ODBC DSN. Currently, only .mdb and .xls up to Excel 8.0 are available (beside MySQL). Newer versions of database file formats should be supported by this feature.

  14. 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.

  19. Post-update hooks in WordPress Toolkit

    Add post-update hooks in WordPress Toolkit, which can be used to automate the process of committing to Git (e.g. WordPress core and plugin updates that are automatically installed by WordPress Toolkit).

    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

    How important is this to you?

    We've already introduced post-install hooks in WP Toolkit v6.6.1, so adding host-update hooks makes total sense. To clarify, current hooks mechanism is available for the server administrator, so if you'd like to use hooks as a regular customer without shell access, please let us know (since in this case the implementation will be quite different)

  20. Change language of notification content

    For Plesk with non-English default language (Vietnamese, for example), notifications' content is still in English.

    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.
