  3. For security reasons: Turn off outputting PHP Version and also Webserver Version

    PHP configuration:
    Add the following Lines for Security Reasons!

    exposephp = off
    server
    tokens off

    Why didn't Plesk decide to make these lines available as options in Plesk, as options?
    In my opinion, no one cares which version I use when it comes to port scanning / Showdan.io. Especially with Showdan.io, you can filter computers that are vulnerable in seconds, e.g. find web servers or PHP versions that are problematic.

    I ask for options in the GUI for ON / OFF, although someone at Plesk should first explain to me why these version numbers of vo, web server Nginx…

  4. Provide a File Manager for admin so that all files and directories of a server can be edited, including these outside subscriptions

    For those Plesk admins who unfamiliar with Linux CLI would be convenient to have an access to the Files and Directories via File Explorer. To be able to execute simple administrative tasks without learning CLI commands

  5. Add "Are you sure?" question for disabling DNS zone management.

    It happend allready twice to me that i accedently disabled a dns zone because i misclicked the button. Every time it takes about 3+ hours until all dns servers are sync again if this error happens so it would be nice if plesk asks you: "Are you sure?" with a simple yes and cancle button.

  6. git extension: option to delete branches

    Git extension: option to delete branches that are not more in the remote repository (or everything and with the next pull get only the ones from remote).

    Here are some possible solutions, I assume:
    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7726949/remove-tracking-branches-no-longer-on-remote

    After some time there are so many branches on the dropdown that it really gets annoying to search for the desired one and removing and adding the repository does not really feel right.

    Here is a command, in case someone finds this idea before it was implemented:

    https://talk.plesk.com/threads/git-extension-doesnt-remove-deleted-branches.351838/#post-861524

    (not sure if there is already a feature request open for this)

  7. Add ability to manage NAT rules by Plesk Firewall.

    Native Linux tool iptable has the ability to add custom NAT rules, however when Plesk Firewall is used these rules are flushed, so it is not possible to use Plesk Firewall + NAT rules by iptables.

    Due to this adding possibility to manage NAT rules via Plesk Firewall would be a great extension, making configuration manageable via Plesk graphical interface.

  9. Add support for IPv6 to ka.plesk.com, hense Plesk licenses can be activate using IPv6

    So far ka.plesk.com does not have IPv6, therefore servers with Plesk that have only IPv6 addresses cannot activate their license.

  10. Make utf8mb4 default when backing up mysql databases

    When i backup database with Plesk (either with Export/Import feature or with Backup Manager), it loses all characters outside Unicode BMP (all characters > 0xFFFF).
    It's because mysqldump default charset is utf8, not utf8mb4.

    This should be changed, for example, if database contains at least one field with utf8mb4 charset - mysqldump should be run with --default-character-set=utf8mb4 option.

    Settings in /etc/mysql/conf.d/mysqldump.cnf are not respected too, it works when i use mysqldump from command-line, but doesn't work when i export or backup db with plesk.

    MySQL dump 10.13 Distrib 5.7.25, for Linux (x86_64)
    MySQL Server version 5.7.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.2
    Plesk version: Plesk Onyx…

  11. Add HTTP authentication to Panel itself

    I think you should add HTTP authentication to the Plesk panel itself - that way it is more secure and if there is ever a vulnerability that allows bypassing the Plesk panel login, someone would also have to find a vulnerability in HTTP authentication itself before even getting to the Plesk panel in the first place. To me it makes more sense to make the Plesk panel itself the most secure it can possibly be, not just websites/virtual hosts hosted by the Plesk panel.

  13. Wordpress Toolkit favoritism and filtering

    Currently the Wordpress Toolkit interface is a bit messy with all the Wordpress instances of you and your customers.
    It would be great if there would be the possibility so that you can mark and filter for certain Wordpress instances. Marking with stars could make it possible that the most important Wordpress instances always appear on the top and can be checked for updates and security issues very quickly.

  15. Allow migration tool to re-synchronize all domains at once

    The ability to re-synchronize data upon migration is great.
    But when you are migrating a dozen or a hundred domain, it is painful to click re-synchronize on each domain one by one.

    Please, add a button allowing to re-synchronize all domains at once.

    Thanks

  16. Ability to enable "Serve static files directly by nginx" by default.

    It would be nice if, in general, I could enable "Serve static files directly by nginx" by default in Service Plans > Web Server.

    This would also have the added side effect of solving the problem where the default Plesk web site page is blank when PageSpeed is enabled.

  17. Exclude mailboxes for a specific domain from a backup

    Hello,

    While creating backup via Plesk control panel it would be great to have ability exclude email accounts of particular domain name, not all email accounts at once.
    This is due to the fact that when the mail accounts are very large, it significantly increases the time to create a backup, and causes it's freezing as a result.

    Thanks.

  18. Add Microsoft SQL Server PHP extensions to Plesk Linux

    They can be disabled by default (and optionally be enabled in PHP Settings, 7.0-7.1 only). The drivers appear to be quite stable - I have successfully installed them in Plesk on Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7.4.

    This is especially interesting since SQL Server 2017 is available for Linux and Docker.

    Once the extensions are installed/enabled, the follow-up request would be to allow me to add remote MS SQL databases in Plesk Linux (not limited to RDS - any remote MS SQL instance).

  19. License Cost Management

    License Cost Management, it would be very interesting for the system to show how much it is being spent monthly, based on the paid licenses, so that the owner of the provider can have a love of how much he is spending to keep his business running, with this being much more It is easy for him to plan the growth of it.

  20. Implement VersionPress as part of your WordPress Toolkit. It uses WP-Cli and is Open Source.

    Implement VersionPress as part of your WordPress Toolkit. It uses WP-Cli and is Open Source.

    By contributing to the project and having other devs already working on it, you will be able to amplify the speed of work being done.

    Further, this project is the holy grail of WordPress development. People would literally flock to Plesk for this feature alone (not to mention its awesome in other ways).

    Please seriously consider contacting the VersionPress Team. This Project basically takes the idea of Git integration, staging, and data syncing to the next level. Database changes are checked in to Git as…
