Can I suggest a server side loading progress bar? thanks
It would be possible to create an extension so that when the web loads a progress bar appears. But the progress bar appears before the page loads, that is, from the moment the request is made to the server. Thanks
2 votesThank you for your update. If I understand correctly, you would like to incorporate a progress bar into a web page that will load prior to the initial server response. Unfortunately, this is out of scope for a control panel to deliver. It will be best to consider consulting with a website developer. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Compatibility of MariaDB Upgrade Feature with CloudLinux
I would like to request compatibility between the MariaDB upgrade feature recently developed by Plesk and CloudLinux. The current upgrade feature is excellent for simplifying and enhancing the security of MariaDB upgrades, but it unfortunately does not support CloudLinux, which many users rely on for stability, security, and ease of use.
Ensuring compatibility with CloudLinux would greatly benefit users who use both platforms, making database upgrades smoother and reducing the need for complex, manual procedures. I also believe that providing specific documentation on database restoration, in case of upgrade failures during a manual process, would add considerable value for users,…
1 voteHello, thanks for your input! Unfortunately, we declined this request. CloudLinux provides own tools to upgrade MariaDB safely. Please check CloudLinux solution "Governor"

Make Wordpress Toolkit aware of virtual directories and their PHP version
Scenario
You have a legacy site that only supports up to a certain version of PHP on the root of domainname.co.uk (let's say PHP 5.6)You also have a WordPress installation on domainname.co.uk/blog/ which is also a virtual directory.
Via virtual directory for the blog, you have selected PHP 8.2
WP Toolkit is not aware of the setting of the virtual directory and assumes the PHP version to be the same as the root.
After upgrading WP to 6.6.x WP Toolkit displays "Broken WordPress site" but the WordPress installation is actually fine.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion. WP Toolkit uses the panel's API to know which handler is used for a domain, and cannot support any manual configurations. For example you can create different domain for this site, with document root inside the docroot of the main site or proxy requests from the main domain's subfolder to the domain.
In these cases WP Toolkit can detect correctly the PHP handler for a site (just because there are panel's entities), and the site can be accessible via http in subfolder.

Show DNS zone settings to the customer without giving the ability to change it.
Currently, disabling DNS settings permission hides DNS menu. It would be better instead for the customer to be able to check their current settings without being able to change them.

VPN Extension
I'm still missing a program that would allow me to easily set up a VPN server with Plesk. I would also like to use my server as a VPN.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion. A VPN component was previously supported on Plesk, but due to consistently low installation numbers and significant resources needed to update it for compatibility with Plesk Obsidian it has been decided to stop its development. Thus, at this point, it isn't planned to deploy such a feature.

List of all cronjobs/scheduled tasks by Plesk XML-RPC-API
It seems that there is currently no way to list all cronjobs of all domains on a Plesk server.
https://plesk.github.io/api-schemas/1.6.8.0/agent_input.svg Does not show any option if I search for "cronjob", "task" or "scheduled".Please add packet > scheduled-task > get > filter > site-id.
As we manage more and more domains, an overview is missing.

Data Storage Challenges with Plesk – Any Advice?
Hello everyone,
I’m currently working on data storage [https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/servers-storage/solutions/data-storage/] solutions and am exploring how Plesk can be used to manage and optimize storage. While Plesk offers various tools for managing data and storage environments, I’m facing some challenges in fully utilizing its features.
Here are a few areas where I’m seeking advice:
Storage Management Best Practices: What are the best practices for managing data storage using Plesk? Are there any common pitfalls or tips for effective storage management?
Performance Optimization: How can I optimize the performance of my data storage setup with Plesk? Any recommendations for improving efficiency…1 voteThank you for your input. UserVoice is intended for feature requests and product improvement ideas. Thus, if you are seeking advice it will be best to consider our Forum page ( https://talk.plesk.com/ ) or Support team ( https://support.plesk.com ). With that being said, we are closing the current request. Thank you for your understanding.

Instant Data Reset Button for Streamlined Server Management
I would like to request a feature for my Plesk server: a streamlined button that allows for the immediate deletion of all data without the need for any confirmation prompts. This feature would be invaluable during moments when managing the server becomes overwhelming, providing a quick and efficient way to reset the system with a single action.

Update the security options to best practice for domains page
Tiny things, should be easily implemented:
1) For HSTS the recommended settings are
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload
Otherwise if you add it elsewhere (the server headers page) you have to turn this off or get two headers implemented, and you do not get the full security rating on that security page and looks like something is missing (plus inconvenient if you do not know what to do).
2) OCSP stapling is something no longer recommended, and probably should be removed. Perhaps this could be replaced with automatic setup of the DS and CAA records (especially given the range of providers…

Agency / Billing
Good day. I would like to suggest a development that could be useful for small businesses and agencies. It would be great if an annual renewal warning could be made for hosting. Without using additional programs. Can the panel remind you of incoming and past payments that are due? Thank you.
1 voteHello, there.
Thank you for your suggestion.
Plesk already has default notifications for:
- Subscription expiration warning
- Subscription expiration
More details you could find in the following support article:
At this point, Plesk is not planning to extend its integrated billing-related features as such are already incorporated into another product of ours - WHMCS, which has native integration with Plesk.

Introduce notification threshold on disk space usage
Customers exceed the allocated disk space. A notification is sent. But customers don't want this notification when they exceed the allocation, but BEFORE they exceed it so that they can react to a warning in a timely manner and won't face overuse charges.
Why is this a problem? Some users don't check their email regularly. They feel pressured to pay an overuse fee if they are not allowed "enough" time to react to an overuse situation.
Proposed feature: A notification threshold for disk space usage should be introduced to service plans in GB or percentage or a general threshold expressed…

Create SSL certificate using list of DNS records if enabled
When creating SSL certificates with letsencrypt we get a list of subdomains to add, but this list is only for subdomains created in plesk, it would be better if in this list there was also the list of domains in the DNS settings that are CNAME of the domain or that point to the same ip
This would allow to generate certificate for the mail domain for example to secure emails without needing a wildcard certificate
Also a bit related: when we want to create a subdomain that is one in the DNS template of the domain, it says the…
1 voteThank you for your suggestion. We appreciate your input. Unfortunately because of technical limitation it's not possible to secure domains based on DNS records as there is not way validate the (sub) domains belonging the a CNAME records when those don't point to the same webspace.
A workaround could be (depending on the exact use case) to add (sub) domain as an alias to the primary domain.

Recovery of Databases from general Plesk Backup Management
Error when restoring backups of databases using general Plesk Backup Management..
If databases have been created which do not contain any tables, the empty database will not be filled with tables when the databases are restored again, will remain empty.
The Plesk database file is selected -> opened to see the options of what you want to do with it. In my case, I want to restore a database.
There should be a question when you are already in import mode for "Databases" -> "Select database" -> "Overwrite empty databases" and "Overwrite all old databases (security question when confirming "restore",…
1 voteThank you for your suggestions Jan. We appreciate your input. However when restoring objects, such as databases, from a backup it's expected that existing objects will be overwritten by the objects from the backup. That's the nature of restoring backups.
That's why unfortunately we are unable to consider your suggestions for additional user confirmations when restoring backup. We appreciate your understanding.
As for restoring an empty database we ran some tests but were unable to reproduce the result you're describing. If you encountered any issues with restoring an empty database from a backup we suggest you contact Plesk support for an investigation of the issue.

HTTP/3 for Apache users
Recently Plesk announced that has implemented HTTP 3 for Nigix but this is not available for Apache users.
Also with Plesk Obsidian 18.0.61 I dont have HTTP 3I'm so asking to implement HTTP 3 also for Apache.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! Unfortunately Apache currently does not support HTTP/3. Which is why Plesk cannot implement HTTP/3 support for Apache.
