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

Implement DNS Certification Authority Authorization (CAA) resource record
Certification Authority Authorization (CAA), defined in RFC 6844, is a standard that allows domain name owners to control which CAs are allowed to issue certificates for their properties.
ssllabs.com has implemented the detection for this record when checking for the SSL grade they give. To prevent getting graded down and use state of the art techniques for ssl security I would usggest to allow adding those nameserver record.
RFC: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6844

Allow SFTP for Personal FTP Repository
It's good that FTPS is now supported for the Personal FTP Backup Repository. But it would be even better if Backups could be transferred to another server via SSH/SFTP instead of just FTPS, for a completely encrypted connection and data transfer.

Add SRS - Sender Rewriting Scheme to Linux

Have an option to deliver email addressed to VERP-style email addresses.
Postfix already has the option, but it doesn't seem to be supported on Plesk.
I want to use VERP so I can automatically process bounce messages with a script. I send out bulk email with a return-path like bounces+uid-john=example.com@ourdomain.com and I want the bounces to be delivered to bounces@ourdomain.com
Postfix has the configuration parameter recipientdelimiter. If I set that in /etc/postfix/main.cf, the server accepts the email and passes it to pleskvirtual. But then it is silently discarded instead of being delivered to the bounces mailbox.
The only way I see with the current set up to deliver…

Direct or faster access to phpMyAdmin
Currently it's too difficult to login to the phpMyAdmin interface. Users have to login in on plesk, choose their domain (if they have more than one), go to website & domains, select the databse page, then select the database they want to use and now they can finally open the webadmin. Too much steps! And if the session ran out, you have to do all these steps again.
The fasted way would be to allow that users can open the phpMyAdmin URL without loggin in to Plesk and only use their credetials for the database. I could understand if that…

Easy removal X-Powered-By HTTP headers
By default the HTTP header 'x-powered-by: PleskLin' is added to HTTP responses.
And with PHP, even the version number is included: 'x-powered-by: PHP/7.3.5'For security it is better to not give such information, as it may expose you are using outdated software with known vulnerabilities.
Currently it is possible to remove these headers, but it requires some manual actions using SSH (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000385274)My suggestion is to create page to be able to manage such header additions for all websites and services.
76 votesThe “X-Powered-By” header can now be removed from pages served by Plesk servers by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:
[webserver]
xPoweredByHeader = offhttps://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18031
