Ask for confirmation when click on "Install Wordpress"'s button.
On a website that's already installed with Wordpress the button to Install Wordpress still appears and sometimes when you misclick, another installation of wordpress starts.
Please add an option/or directly Ask for confirmation when clicking on "Install Wordpress" because of a mis-click, once the installation starts there is no way to stop it, and it installs on the same website that has already Wordpress installed.
7 votesWe have redesigned the installation experience and now you cannot accidentally install WordPress anymore (you have to make at least one confirmation click). Enjoy!

Manage manual added Databases (without Plesk)
It's not possible to manage Databases that had been added manually without Plesk 12. I can't say that i want to use a specific Database in a "profil" Domain-Database Setting.
It would be really nice to add a Option to "add existing / import" a Database the Plesk GUI would like the same but no checking of " Database with requested name already exists".
Now i can't do a fully Backup with all Databases, manuall with plesk added Databases are missing!
TIA

Make the "show advanced operations" arrow on the Websites & Domains tab more prominent or a different color

Add the possibility to define which theme will be set by default after the WordPress installation
For example when we add the required theme into the WordPress set, after the installation the "Twenty Twenty" theme will be set as default.
Please add the possibility to define which theme will be set by default after the WordPress installation as via the CLI method as via Plesk GUI.
The CLI method is important here because some customers use only this method for a WordPress installation.
6 votesWe have released this feature in WPT 5.2 update. You can use GUI or CLI to choose a theme that should be activated upon the installation of a set.
CLI command example: plesk ext wp-toolkit —sets -operation activate-theme -set-id ID -theme-id THEME_ID
If you’re using GUI, go to Sets and click on “+ Add Themes” button next to the corresponding theme.Let us know on our forum (talk.plesk.com) if you encounter any issues.

Translation of WordPress Toolkit 2.0
The new features of the WP-Toolkit are awesome. But I am missing localization. Insise the system every button and explaining texts are only in english.
It would be nice to provide translations (e.g. in german) as at the moment it is a mix up of translated and untranslated content inside the tool.
6 votesWPT 2.0 was fully translated some time ago. Note that translations for subsequent updates might be consistently late due to the time required to organize and perform them. Let us know if you have other requests or concerns in this regards.

Add an option to unlink a site from WordPress Toolkit list.
Hi. I have about 50 sites on my Plesk server. Some are Wordpress sites developed outside this server and uploaded after development ended. Once I scan the server, all Wordpress sites are added to the WordPress Toolkit list.
The problem is not all customers are paying for regular bases maintenance so I don't want their website to be on my WordPress Toolkit list.
Now I can't unlink any of the sites in the list.6 votesStarting with WordPress Toolkit v5.9.2, permanent detachment is available. Once you detach a site from WordPress Toolkit, it stays detached forever. If you need to make a detached site visible to WordPress Toolkit again, remove the .wp-toolkit-ignore file from the site's home directory and run Scan.

docker or lxc
It wanna be nice to have docker or lxc in Plesk integrated, in that way like "cockpit" have it. That you can easily create container, set start parameter login over a console. All this over a web interface.

Implement MariaDB 10.4 support
Please implement MariaDB 10.4 support. We have upgraded to MariaDB 10.4 by mistake and now we're jumping through hoops adding new websites / DB users.
The main issue is that MariaDB have moved the 'user' table to a table called 'global_priv' and Plesk is still trying to read from the old one ( which they've converted into a View, so it errors out ).
We can't downgrade, as it's not supported, and we certainly can't roll back. So it would be extremely awesome of you if you'd help with this.
Also by reading on Reddit and Plesk Support forum, we're…

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.

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.

indicate password strengh or acceptance during "reset password" process
There are many customers complaining, they have to try several passwords during the password-reset process, before one is accepted. There is no visual indicator if the typed password fits the safety regulations.
"Inside" plesk, the password strengh is indicated when they change theirs plesk- , FTP- or e-mail password. Why not during the reset-process?
The highlight would be an indicator, that permanently shows if the typed password is strong enough or has to be stronger (with a tooltip/hint, what specifications has to be met or which kind of character is missing).

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

Make all e-mail templates customizable (including password reset e-mail)
