Git Workflow: DEVELOPMENT > PRODUCTION
Many developers use git these days when working on a website or webapp. It would be great if Plesk supports a simple deployment workflow:
Example when using two branches:
- development
- masterBranch "development" will be automatically deployed by Plesk to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/dev.example.com => connected to https://dev.example.com
Branch "master" will be automatically deployed by Plesk to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs => connected to https://www.example.comWhat about database connectivity?
When using different databases for development and master you should not include your "database-connection.ini" into git but manually store it in the designated directory and edit via Plesk File Manager for example.What about access…

improve the migration manager for horde identities
I recently migrated to a new server and most went smoothly.
Alas all horde settings an especially the additional identities I had added are gone and it is a real pain to add them one by one.
So please make the migration manager aware about horde settings and migrate those properly too.27 votes -
WordPress Toolkit - Plugins/Themes view - Show only items which have update available, hide already updated
Going to WordPress toolkit's Plugins view I get a listing of over 3000 plugins. It is quite hard to pick one-by-one the plugins that I choose to upgrade. It would be great to have a "filter" on that page, that I can only show the plugins that have updates available, hiding already updated plugins

Add Microsoft SQL Server PHP extensions to Plesk Linux
They can be disabled by default (and optionally be enabled in PHP Settings, 7.0-7.1 only). The drivers appear to be quite stable - I have successfully installed them in Plesk on Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7.4.
This is especially interesting since SQL Server 2017 is available for Linux and Docker.
Once the extensions are installed/enabled, the follow-up request would be to allow me to add remote MS SQL databases in Plesk Linux (not limited to RDS - any remote MS SQL instance).

Change default notification setting for task 'secur-check'
I suggest to change the default notification setting for cron task '/opt/psa/libexec/modules/watchdog/cp/secur-check' because now it is set to "Every time" but is useless to get the following output at every run:
[2017-10-30 01:00:01] DEBUG [utilexec] [59f66b81b1574] Starting: rsecurcheck security2017-10-30 schedule, stdin:

Mod_pagespeed 'cache' clear button in speed settings panel
When tuning system for modpagespeed, http/2, PHP7 w/opcache, https, ran into issue with Apache, where turning modpagespeed off, then back on, or off then restarting doesn't clear cache. On a development site, I had to do a htaccess to fully disable in order to apply CSS changes which were 'stuck' -- a 'clear cache' option from panel would be super cool, vs command line ! :-)

website importing with different ip for ftp and www
The current website import function only allows entry of the source domain name.
I need to specify the ftp server details separately as for some hosts the ftp server is on a different ip to the website and the current import function fails as it fails to access either the website or ftp server depending on which info was entered as the source domain.6 votesThank you for your input!

Configuring the Default Remote Access Policy for MS SQL and PostgreSQL via UI
Right now, it is possible to manage Access Policy only for MySQL Database Servers only: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/database-servers/database-hosting-preferences.72875/
It would be good to manage Remote Access Policy for MS SQL and PostgreSQL via Plesk UI too.

Fail2Ban may send abuse reports to IP owners of blocked IPs.
The report should include a predefined message, the relevant part of log files, and full signature of sysadmin.
The abuse e-mail address for a IP could be automatically retrieved with a RIPE Database Query.

Allow configuration of MSMTP (SMTP relay)
Currently, there is no way to permanently change the MSMTP config in /etc/msmtprc and the Plesk options in "Mail > External SMTP Server" are not enough for Gmail and Zoho to even work.
Gmail problem:
While sending you get
errormsg='the server sent an empty reply'
Fix: add "tls_starttls off" to /etc/msmtprc
Zoho problem:
https://talk.plesk.com/threads/its-not-possible-to-send-notification-emails-from-plesk-using-and-external-smtp-msmtp.344922/#post-836533Please provide for us a way to change the config template or include additional configs, like we have for e.g. proftpd in /etc/proftpd.d/

Migrate all crontabs and MySQL routines, events, users permissions
Please add to Plesk Migrator the ability to:
- migrate all crontabs, as currently, only the last created task for a domain will migrated;
- disable crontabs on target server before migration, to avoid unpredictable effects with those scripts that interact with the outside;
- MySQL routines;
- MySQL events;
- MySQL event scheduler status on/off;
- user permissions that you set from Tools&Settings > Database Servers > Manage via DB WebAdmin" - see https://snag.gy/HWyFRS.jpg

Offer proper sftp support through mysecureshell
It would be nice if Plesk by default installed sftp server software (such as http://mysecureshell.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ ) that allows granting the user sftp access to his home directory only, without having to grant the user full SSH shell access.
Right now Plesk seems to be promoting FTPS as alternative for securely transfering files, but that simply does not work properly when the end-user has a firewall or NAT setup. Or when you have iptables rules on the server.
This is caused by that FTPS uses multiple TCP ports like normal FTP.
However because the control connection traffic is encrypted, firewall software…6 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

If target FTP folder is missing from FTP repository, Plesk Backup Manager shall create it
When it comesto FTP Backup one can configure external FTP space and det a folder to be used.
If that folder does not exist Plesk errors out this fact and the normal user is somehow lost.
It would be a nice feature to have a checkbox to be checked that says "create folder structure if not existing".
