The ability to clone WordPress multisite
WordPress Toolkit Clone feature also available for in supports WordPress multisite.
6 votesIn WP Multisite installations you have one single WP controlling many different websites and domains. "Cloning" a multisite installation seems to be a challenge, because when you clone a site, you need to mention a target where to clone the site to (a new URL, a new subdomain). As a multisite installation has many URLs, it seems impossible to clone these to one single domain. It will be unclear which domain is actually cloned or how to map source to target.
But as always, we're open for ideas and would love to hear more details from you how you imagine the workflow. Please describe in your comments what you expect to happen when you clone a multisite installation, e.g. how you'd want to map source to target(s). Would you for example want to see a dialog where you can enter new domains and subdomains for each existing URL in the…

Update or Status notifications from the WP-Toolkit by E-Mail
In the Plesk WordPress Toolkit there is so far no possibility to switch on a notification if something changes in the status of a page. e.g. SSL / security settings or the latter and most interesting updates! For WordPress there are several plugins that take over the update notification function, but they don't always work. But since the WordPress toolkit has the function, it would be great if you could turn on an e-mail notification!

Migrate AWStats customizations
Currently any customization made into AWStats configuration files (for domain /usr/local/psa/etc/awstats/* or server-wide /etc/awstats/awstats.conf), for example, language changing are not migrated. It would be nice feature to add ability to migrate such settings, so that users do no have to turn it back manually

deny access to .git folder by default
I think it would be great if you could prevent access to .git folders that are usually left exposed by users in the server when building the vhost templates .
It's very common that users forget to remove credentials and other sensitive information out of their repositories so by leaving the folder exposed it's possible for an attacker to gain access to this sensitive information.
Currently we manually protect those folders when we spot them but it would be nice if this was implemented from the start.
For example in nginx the following rule could be used.
location ~ /.git…

Hide "Location of the website's files" field when there is just one subscription.
In most cases, our customers have only one subscription, on which mostly several domains run.
If another domain is added via the "Add Domain" dialog, the dropdown field "Location of the website's files" appears in the form.
This makes absolute sense if a customer has several subscriptions. However, if the customer only has one subscription, this is very confusing.
We are often asked by our customers, if the existing data of the other domain (main domain as subscription) is overwritten, because it is not obvious to the customer that he has only one subscription and the value in the field…

Event manager: Add a hook before an event is processed
Hello all,
I hope this idea can be shared with many of you.Actually in the Events manager you can handle a task, an action you can run AFTER the event occurs. Can be really usefull to have the same BEFORE, I'm going to explain:
Make an example can be when a Subscription or a Domain is going to be removed from the hosting server, can be really usefull to backup data or something else similar before the task is executed.
At moment is impossible to handle a task before an event occurs, we hope can be usefull for other…

Plesk admin control panel warning if any mailbox is reaching limits
Presently, I normally learn that a client has a full mailbox when they call with email issue. I am thinking it would be nice if when I login the Plesk admin control panel, it would be nice if a small area could show if any mailboxes were at 95% or great capacity. Maybe call it Mail Level Monitor. Then if I could decide to up the level, or contact the client to talk about mail client settings & mail management. A proactive approach.

Restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup
It would be great to have an ability to restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup. As of now, backup is created without any errors, however it is not possible to restore the database because restoration is done not in behalf of postgres user.
Or at least have a warning when backup is created that I have to restore the database as a postgres user from the command line and do not rely on backup of the database created via backup manager.

Alternative functionality for configuring FTP backup storage instead of <backup-manager> operator.
There is a need for new functionality that allows us to configure FTP backup storage settings. Plesk UI is not an applicable way. As XMP-API <backup-manager> operator is deprecated in Plesk 17.8, alternative cli functionality is required to manage FTP backup storage settings. It was possible to perform via XML-API <set-remote-storage-settings> node of <backup-manager> operator.

NodeJS Allow more environment variables
When setting environment on a NodeJS App (using NodeJS extension) I am getting to the limit of four variables, sometimes five.
I assume that line ending is reached or something. I am connecting to several mongodb databases and for each db I need to auth which is set within an environment variable.
This limits my app a lot since I need to build overcomplicated workarounds using files to be loaded async and their content to be validated, then connecting to the db and so on.
