  1. Plesk-wide maintenance mode

    At times it takes quite significant time to perform plesk in-place upgrade. During this time all sites are down and plesk control panel is down as well.

    It would be good to have plesk-wide maintenance mode for such occasions that would display a nice maintenance or upgrade notice page that would be displayed to whoever accesses the sites hosted in plesk or plesk control panel itself.

  2. ProFTPd GeoIP blocking

    Compile proftpd with "GeoIP"
    http://www.proftpd.org/docs/contrib/mod_geoip.html

    This would allow to block or whitelist countries - even on a per user basis.
    We did research on this and most of the foreign FTP attempts are malicious.

  4. Support from ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation)

    Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) Support where good.

    To ensure the best possible compatibility of support would be very good here.
    Of course, this is not a priority but would be good.
    So could the future https, http, be http / 2 Easy granted.

  6. add the possibility to write a description to an IP

    It could be a good idea that I can write a note to each IP pointing to my server in Config > IP Addresses.

    I have some IPs used for SSL certificates, for example. I'd like to write a note to these IPs like "used for domain SSL certificate"

  8. Implement a general-purpose ACME client for certificate authorities other than Let's Encrypt

    Currently, it is only possible to automatically renew certificates issued by Let's Encrypt. Certificates from other CA's have to be updated manually even if they support ACME protocol, so it would be useful to have a module that could renew all certificates.

  9. Allow configure the Auto-Update settings of WP Toolkit at the Service Plan

    Allow configuring the Auto-Update settings of WP Toolkit based on the service plan or the Subscription.

    This would allow configuring the Auto-Update settings desired to a certain amount of Subscriptions globally at once.

    For example:
    Service Plan 1
    Update Wordpress > Yes
    Update Plugins > Yes
    Update Themes > Yes

    Service Plan 2
    Update Wordpress > Yes
    Update Plugins > Yes
    Update Themes > No

    etc...

  11. Add Nagios support

    It would be nice to add Nagios support in Plesk, since there are no other tools to monitor Plesk mail server, such as Postfix, to check mail queue, ability to send messages etc.

  12. Migration DNS records for domains from CPanel

    Hello,

    Please add the functionality to migrate domain DNS records during the migration from CPanel to Plesk.

    At the moment, Plesk apply default DNS template for these migrated domains. All additional DNS records have to be added manually.

  14. install sql server reporting services with SQL server on shared hosting. Would be a valuable & useful feature for your product & consumers.

    Availability of reporting services on SQL server would be very useful on shared web hosting. My new ISP says Plesk doesn't support reporting services. I think it would be great if you did - not every site is a blog or simple brochure style. Any small scale business site still requires reporting, and SSRS is a natural fit for ASP.Net hosting.

  15. Git extension deploy using git's own worktree

    There are limitations with the current git deployment system, including:

    1. You cannot edit files in-site and push them back to a repo. You must make all changes elsewhere and push them in. This can be limiting.
    2. You cannot see what has changed in the deployment directory. If we could "git status" we could easily find scripts that hackers installed. Currently this can be done by setting --git-dir and --work-tree options to git, but that is painful.

  17. Add ipset in Firewall to increase performance

    Please extend the Firewall / Concept to make the use of ipset, because it is generally the fastest solution i found so far. Chains like "f2b-recidive" can also be implemented as ipset list. This will speed up the whole process while adding or removing ips. I dont know if there is a cidr support in ipset...

    For example, remove the following chain:

    f2b-plesk-postfix tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 multiport dports 25,465,587

    And extend the firewall with a native DROP on the ports as described below:

    DROP tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 multiport dports 25,465,587 match-set f2b-plesk-postfix src

    And then (or before?) just…

  19. Implement DNS Whitelists

    Plesk does not currently support DNS Whitelists like it does RBLs, such as the list at dnswl.org. There needs to be a way to add this from the Plesk UI.
    The Postfix main.cf config directive is permitdnswlclient.
    Whenever a Plesk upgrade happens, the setting, if added is removed and needs to be added back manually.
