add the free Clef service for simple, strong multifactor panel authentication without passwords
Plesk Panel 11 is wonderful. But it could be even more wonderful if included strong, multifactor authentication.
Clef’s (http://getclef.com) strong MFA is free, super easy to use, and provides next-gen authentication security without passwords.
Plesk Panel + Clef would make a dynamic duo!

fail2ban now supports IPv6 - please upgrade
At some time you closed the request "fail2ban for IPv6" stating that fail2ban does not support it. That was no doubt correct at the time - but now it does, see https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/tree/0.10
I'm seeing a lot of warnings in the fail2ban log on my dual stack servers, like this:
66:1000:b01c:10ab:0:1: [Errno -9] Address family for hostname not supported
and my log checking software is complaining to me about the overly long fail2ban log.

Thanks! Tim.

Possibility to force SSL on Webmail
Some users don't know why they should enter https:// if they have to access webmail, they use http://
http is insecure. Easpecially in combination with unencrypted wireless connections.
Actually you have to go into the plesk code to set this function somewhere. Why does plesk provide the webmail-login insecure by default?
If you have setup an Domain Certificate, at least then plesk should offer the option to force ssl on accessing webmail.mydomain.??135 votesHi!
The functionality is now available:
1. Linux: in the SSL It! Plesk Extension: https://ext.plesk.com/packages/3c4117f6-c05c-4d3b-9173-60f10096a9c4-sslit
2. Windows: in Plesk Obsidian (by default if SSL is turned on for the domain)How to find it in SSL It! Extension:
1. install SSL It! Extension (it’s available for Plesk 17.8+)
2. go to > SSL/TLS Certificates
3. if there is no SSL Certificate installed on the domain – issue one (using, for example, free Let’s Encrypt SSL Certificate)
4. if an SSL Certificate is installed on the domain, there is a switcher “HTTP→HTTPS redirect”, this switcher has an option “Webmail”, turn it on.
5. Additionally, you can setup HSTS (for webmail too)
6. Voila!We would appreciate hearing your feedback on the implementation of this functionality. Thanks in advance!

Nginx Cache purge
Please, consider to implement some sort of cache purge functionality available from Plesk web interface, because if cache TTL gets extended to match Site needs, it gets complicated, i.e. need to go over Linux Terminal to purge it. A Wordpress integration would be just super fantastic, but I understand, it is not realistic to wish it.
Thank you!123 votesStarting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.45 https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18045,
added the ability to manually clear nginx cache for websites with nginx caching enabled, both via the GUI and using the plesk bin domain_pref --reset-nginx-cache <domainName> command.

add rar extract and compress to rar and other formats as well as zip available
add rar extract and compress to rar and other formats as well as zip available
For developers/database admins, sometimes backups are taken in different
formats and compression is done in different formats.when compressed files other than ZIP file is uploaded for websites data
files, there is no way to uncompress them via PLESK, one has to go to SSH
and then extract to use it.So compressing files/folders to multiple formats and then extraction from
multiple compressed formats will allow more ease of use for users where
they deal with no. of formats!114 votesNow you can upload and extract RAR, TAR, TAR.GZ, and TGZ archives in Plesk Obsidian – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/whats-new/

Limit what aditional administrators can do
It would be useful to have options for what additional administrators can do within the panel. For example, I run hosting as part of my IT company and normally it's me that does all the work in Panel, however it is often useful to have one of my staff to do some admin tasks but I don't necessarily want that person to be able to perform all tasks such as changing critical server settings.

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