Add compression settings for domain output
I want to see domain level setting that allows output from server to be compressed before being sent to the client over the network.
Now Plesk does not setup nginx/apache/iis to compress output.
18 votesFrom Plesk Onyx 17.8 for Windows, the Dynamic Content Compression can be enabled using Plesk Installer https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/web-servers/iis-web-server-windows/iis-dynamic-compression-support.78852/

Setup vacation auto-reply via RoundCube webmail
- RoundCube webmail by Default provide a Vacation auto reply
- The option should not be hide in settings.
- Able to setup start and End date.
- Possible to set a limit to one message per day for each account.
17 votesOver several years this request has only received a few votes. Also, in Roundcube it is possible to create an auto-reply using "Filters", so there is basically an option to create auto-replies from Roundcube.
Roundcube is a separate 3rd party product that is not maintained by and cannot be extended by Plesk. Roundcube extensions can be purchased by server admininistrators seperately and are not sold by Plesk either.
Instead, a flexible auto-reply function is already available in Plesk mail configuration. For that reason we close this request.

Nginx installation with optimized parameters(or as an option), e.g. microcaching.
Nginx and Backend installation with optimized parameters(or as an option), e.g. microcaching. One has to change Plesk template files to bring NGINX to appropriate RPS. Some cache service as a part of Plesk package would be a great addition, as Plesk is Web-Server oriented. Thanks for the great product!!
17 votesYou can use nginx caching since Plesk Onyx 17.8 – https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/web-servers/apache-and-nginx-web-servers-linux/enabling-nginx-caching.79185/

Faster Interface
I'm totally a plesk fan. But there's only one thing wich I like more at cpanel than plesk. cPanels admin interface is faster. When I add a domain it instantly adds it, without showing a loading animation on the button and redirecting me after ~5 seconds. What If plesk redirects you isntantly, but processes in the background? That will give the user a faster feeling.
15 votesRegarding Plesk interface speed I would like to recommend you to compare speed on old Plesk versions and 17.8 where php7 is used instead of php5, for example:
- plesk version
Product version: Plesk Onyx 17.5.3 Update #42 - /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/php -v
PHP 5.6.30 (cli) (built: Sep 12 2017 11:11:16)
- plesk version
Product version: Plesk Onyx 17.8.10 - /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/php -v
PHP 7.1.14 (cli) (built: Feb 9 2018 14:36:24) ( NTS )
The speed of Plesk interface was dramatically increased in latest Plesk version.

Add TRIGGER privilege management for database users
Some of our customers are asking for a way to define triggers on their MySQL/MariaDB databases. Plesk does not grant the TRIGGER privilege on database users it creates.
Modifying the GRANTs for those users created by Plesk is not a viable workaround, because the permissions get reset if the user is later modified at all via Plesk.
The only known workaround is to create and manage a separate database user outside of Plesk, which is obviously contrary to the purpose of having Plesk on a server in the first place.
Please consider adding TRIGGER privilege management to Plesk, or else…
14 votesThis feature request has been reviewed. The "trigger" privilege is included in the user privileges section. The necessary privilege can be selected in the "Structure Access" section of each database user (please see attached screenshot). In the review we have verified that the trigger privilege is fully operational by using the examples from the official MariaDB https://mariadb.com/kb/en/trigger-overview/ documentation, section "Creating a Trigger". This was possible to do with a normal database user that has the "Trigger" privilege checked in the "Structure Access" section in the database user configuration page of Plesk.

Support to PostgreSQL 12.x with the Plesk obsidian.
Hello Dev team,
I would like to suggest to provide the support also for PostgreSQL 12.x for Linux.
Since we already provide the 10x would be great if we could officially also provide the 12x https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/update-notes/
14 votesPostgreSQL 8.4 - 12 have been officially tested with Plesk. PostgreSQL 12 is supported.
https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012398553-PostgreSQL-support-in-Plesk
Newer PostgreSQL versions may not have been officially tested and approved as of this status entry, but should all work anyway.

Add important ERP & CRM Apps
Softaculous became popular, because it offers huge range of apps installation. One great feature in Plesk is to expand the range of important apps available for installtion.
Adding important ERP and CRM Apps, such as ERPNext, Dolibarr, OpenTaps, CiviCRM, and Odoo would be useful for Plesk market share and for customers.
Plesk's market share will increase when using such a strategy.
Why not allow more powerful apps for ERP or CRM in Plesk?14 votesThis feature request has only received a handful of votes over 6 years. As Plesk already provides an alternative APS catalog with the Softaculous extension
https://ext.plesk.com/packages/d5f503ac-c774-4f60-8f85-b50f3b0200a6-softaculous
we currently have no plans to expand the existing APS catalog.

Set Webmail to use Plesk PHP Interpreter Options
It would be nice to be able to use the various Plesk PHP versions to run our webmail services. Especially PHP 7.1
13 votesSince several years Roundcube on Plesk is independent from operating system vendor PHP versions and is using a tested, rather up-to-date PHP version provided by Plesk. There is no reason to put the burden of selecting and maintaining an additional PHP configuration for roundcube on users as Plesk is having an eye on it for you. Since the initial cause for this feature request has been solved, we are closing this process.

Autodiscover is already available since Plesk Obsidian. Simply check "Enable mail autodiscover" on the mail settings page of a domain. Please see how it works on https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009747280.
There is no need to add an alternative solution that does the same.

Allow weekly and monthly backups with Dropbox Backup Extension
Can you please make an option in the Dropbox scheduled backup for weekly and monthly...?
We want to turn off daily but keep weekly or monthly.
This is also useful for bandwidth when you are being charged everyday to output xxGB out of the sever to Dropbox. (weekly may be ok since this Dropbox is not the primary backup solution but a secondary one for us and we don't need it to upload the xxGB backup daily...)
Thank you
11 votesVerified that with the Drop Box extension it is possible to create the same daily, weekly or monthly backups that are also available with other backup methods. Should this request have meant to disable daily backups (hide that option), please formulate that as a new feature request, because that would be a different story.
