Custom labels in WP Toolkit and additional filtering
Each WP Toolkit entry now has 5 predefinied labels (production, demo, testing, staging, development) to mark site with.
Would be great to have ability to create own label/labels.
Also, would be great to have ability to filter sites with marked label, i. .e. show me all sites with label "production" in WP Toolkit.
1 voteWe have added the ability to filter sites by labels in WPT 4.7, please check it out.
Since we haven’t seen any examples of custom labels for more than a month (which was the second part of the request), we’re closing this request as completed. If anyone feels the need to have custom labels, please create a new request and provide examples of such labels, so we can better understand why they’re needed.

Update of paid WordPress plugins via WordPress Toolkit
As you know, WordPress Toolkit can update plugins and themes installed only from WordPress.org. Paid plugins installed from vendors' websites cannot be updated using WordPress Toolkit.
It's not convenient to update plugins from WordPress.org in the WordPress Toolkit and log into WordPress admin dashboard to update paid ones, so please implement this feature.
Especially considering that it's possible to update both free and paid plugins in the WP dashboard (in the menu "Updates").13 votesWordPress Toolkit 4.7 now can update paid plugins & themes, if these updates are available in the WordPress admin area. Note that certain plugins and themes do not support automatic updates, but display notifications about update availability anyway. This particulal scenario isn’t fully supported yet.

Increase the logs available in MailEnable after log rotation
When installing Plesk with MailEnable, by default Plesk removes MailEnable logfiles every 24 hours.
According to this KB (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001102353), this functionality is made in purpose to optimize mail statistics, but this is not acceptable.
Additionally, you are offering the possibility to apply this workaround (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213397889), but this workaround is not valid for us because we don't want to customize the FTP and HTTP logs location and we have the log files in different disk volumes.
Please, provide the possibility to configure the log rotation settings for MailEnable respecting our hosting company needs.
7 votesAccording to https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213397889 the ability to control the rotation period is implemented starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.25.

ability to disable Wildcard certificate option in Let's Encrypt
Add ability to disable Wildcard certificate option in Let's Encrypt
18 votesAvailable since Let’s Encrypt Extension 2.8.3.
https://ext.plesk.com/packages/f6847e61-33a7-4104-8dc9-d26a0183a8dd-letsencrypt
“2.8.3 (24 October 2019)
[+] Introduced the allow-wildcard-certificates option (true by default) under the ext-letsencrypt section in the panel.ini file. If set to false, the option hides the feature of issuing wildcard SSL/TLS certificates in the interfaces of the Let’s Encrypt and SSL It! extensions.Note: For the same purpose, users could earlier use the acme-protocol-version setting with the acme-v01 value. If you have this configuration, we recommend that you start using allow-wildcard-certificates set to false because the ACMEv1 protocol will soon reach end of life."

Search & Replace for Wordpress websites
This is highly desirable and basic feature.
When ever user enters "Hosting Settings" and changes the domain, Plesk will detect if a wordpress website is installed, if this domain has wordpress installed - a pop up will show up asking "Would you like to run Search and Replace in the database for the new domain?"User will thick V and confirm.
Then a new pop up will show up showing:- Creating restore point
- Running search and replace.
This feature will save a lot of Hosts the problem with customers / developers changing the domain and not figuring up why the…
5 votesStarting with WPT 4.6, WordPress administrators can automatically update their website URL in the WordPress database and wp-config.php file based on the actual current URL. This procedure is particularly useful after migrating a website from a different location like your local workstation. The Update Site URL feature is available in the “hamburger” (context drop-down menu) on a WordPress site card.
If you have feedback on this feature, let us know at our forum (https://talk.plesk.com) or other communication channels.

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.1 voteThe File Sharing component has been deprecated and will be removed soon. https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/deprecation-plan/

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.
5 votesHi, these suggestions are a part of a whole searching process on the Plesk Help Center website. It helps us in analysing what people search and it also helps people with suggestions. It is very important for us.
We will work on search improvements to show better results. Thank you for your feedback.

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.
4 votesHi everyone,
The ability to install sets on existing sites was added for Server Administrators in WPT v4.4.0. Go to the Sets tab and click on the ‘…’ button corresponding to the required set to see the Install Set button. Let us know what you think!

Customize Quick installation of Wordpress
It would be great to add ability to customize Quick installation settings of Wordpress. For example,currently it is not possible to change installation path in case of Quick installation option is selected. However it maybe required to modify the path without customizing other options (such as Administrative access credentials, main configuration etc), Having ability to modify default quick installation settings would be a nice tool, which make it easier to use WordPress for end-users.
3 votesWe have redesigned the installation experience, and it seems that installation of WordPress is now working the way you want. Check the feature out and let us know if you have any additional comments!
