  2. Find and Install Apache Modules

    In the apache modules screen have a space where a user can find and install packages via a GUI interface instead of using command line to setup modules.

  3. Add a warning before application installation

    Actualy to instal an application, the user just clik on "install" bouton in application list.

    • No warning
    • No options

    Plesk directly install the application in httpdocs....

    Good but if user already got a website in httpdocs... this website is définityvely break.

    So i suggest to a a warning or installation options when user clik on install button

    Best regard

  4. Prevent users from installing SSL certificates

    As reseller (or administrator) we should be able to prevent customers installing a selfsigned or 3rd party bought SSL certificate themselves.

    It's not possible to disable the 'SSL support' check box within the
    'Service Plans' menu section 'Hosting Parameters' because as Administrator we install customer SSL certificates by API. Disabling 'SSL support' will also disable installing SSL certificates by API.

  5. Express transfer: migration manager option to change IP address

    cPanel has a feature much appreciated: transfer in "Express Transfer".
    This feature allows you to migrate one or more domains from a source server to a server with changing IP ADDRESS from old to new server.

    I think it's time to apply it in Plesk.

  6. change domain alias

    when i have a domain alias (lets say alias.com) for domain test.com and i want to change the alias to test2.com, if have to delete the alias and recreate it.
    if i have many custom dns records in the alias, i have to create them again manually.
    it should be possible to just change the aliases "main-domain"

  7. Support of SELinux

    Attacks to web servers are in increasing. All modern Linux distribution come with SELinux. SELinux is a perfect way to avoid an attacker to get privileged access to the OS. Currently, Plesk is not supporting SELinux.
    Support should be added. A policy should be provided to configure SELinux to support all PLESK relevant actions on the server.

    Thank you for your idea. At this time, the Node.js drop-in replacement "bun" is in a development stage. There is still lots of work to do and bun does not yet have any significant market share. There are also no signs that a broader community is using this instead of Node.js. 

    Maybe this will change in the future. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

  10. PLESK performance optimization

    Please optimize the plesk panel in terms of database performance, apache and nginx. I tested a few free panels and they fared much better in terms of performance than the plesk panel. So something's up. Tested in the same environment. Regards

  11. Add support for Application Settings/Environment variables for .NET web apps

    It looks like you can add applications settings/enviroment variable for Node and PHP application.

    But there is no way of doing the same for .NET/.NET Core web apps.

    Today you need to use the File Manager to open appsettings.json, but that is a really bad solution, and a new deployment can/will overwrite it anyway.

    Only connection strings can be added, but it´s a big miss to not be able to add settings/variable for the current environment, for example API keys, SMTP settings or other applications settings.

  12. 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.

  14. Be able to disable/hide Mail Forwarding

    Mail forwarding, when sent externally, can cause IP reputation issues due to forwarded spam.
    When users setup an email account via Plesk panel, they are given the option to "Switch on mail forwarding". It would be nice to either disable or hide this option from plesk panel. If
    that's not possible, then only offer users to forward email locally instead of forwarding to external email accounts

    Could you clarify that we correctly got the case:
    Plesk Admin wants to prohibit an ability for their customers to set up an email forwarding to external emails.
    If yes, would it work if the related subscription will have additional permission, which will allow/disallow to manage mail forwarding at all for a particular subscription?

  17. add search and replace in code editor

  18. 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)

  20. 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.
