Make default Plesk-page editable from GUI
I would like to be able to update that site from the plesk host panel, I have no idea how to do it now!
5 votesWe will consider an option to edit the default page directly from within Plesk GUI in upcoming releases if it will be popular.
Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
For the time being you can already edit the default page that is located in /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs on the system level.

Allow SMTP authentication with incoming mail disabled
Having the mail server enabled for a domain makes all mail go to it internally, even if the MX records of the domain point to another server.
The option to disable incoming mail resolves this, but doesn't allow Plesk to send mail over SMTP for that domain, only PHP mail.
This is not preferable because this mail can't be encrypted nor signed with DKIM. Therefore, for security, Plesk should have an option to disable incoming mail while still allowing SMTP delivery by using the public MX records.

Queue emails over limit in a domain instead of defearring
If you have activated a limit and the limit is reached, all further mails are rejected. It would be good if for these emails to remain in the mail queue and be sent automatically after the set time for the limit has expired.

FTP Bandwidth Control in Plesk
Introduce a feature within Plesk to allow administrators to limit and manage FTP bandwidth usage on a per-domain or server-wide basis. This feature would enable precise control over the data transfer rates for FTP services, improving resource allocation and network traffic management. By offering bandwidth throttling, server administrators can prevent excessive FTP usage from affecting other services, enhancing overall server performance and customer satisfaction.

Add option to create temporary admin account in WordPress Toolkit for support access

Display MySQL/MariaDB versions with warnings for unsupported versions in the Dashboard
Many users run unsupported versions of MySQL or MariaDB, leading to issues such as failed updates or database errors. Since Plesk only supports LTS versions of MySQL/MariaDB, it's important to make this clear to administrators.
I propose adding the following improvements to the Dashboard:
- Display the installed MySQL/MariaDB version directly on the Dashboard.
- Include warnings for unsupported MySQL/MariaDB versions, with a color-coded alert system similar to the OS warnings.
These warnings should also link to support articles that explain the importance of running supported database versions and provide instructions for updating to a supported version.
By implementing this, administrators can…

Feature Suggestion for Plesk WordPress Toolkit: Notification Control per Subscription
I would like to propose an enhancement to the Plesk WordPress Toolkit to address an issue with email notifications sent to end users. Currently, the toolkit sends nightly email alerts regarding available updates for WordPress plugins, themes, and the WordPress version. However, there is no option for server administrators to disable these notifications on a per-subscription basis.
This lack of granularity means that administrators cannot tailor the notification settings according to individual user preferences, which may lead to annoyance for end users receiving notifications they do not wish to see.
I propose extending the WordPress Toolkit to allow end users…

Permission to manage hosting type
Add an additional permission that manages the ability to manage vhost type only (website, forwarding, no hosting). Currently this is bundled with "Domains management" permission, which if unchecked, will also not allow the creation of new domains.

Support for HTTP/2 on apache (without using nginx as proxy)
Hi,
It seems some Plesk users would like to have support for HTTP/2 on apache directly (without using nginx as a proxy).
We do not clearly understand cases when it is required. Why using nginx as a proxy in front of the Apache is not an option? Could you please let us know how this feature should work in terms of workflow, in your opinion? We welcome any feedback and would be happy to receive examples to investigate the question in more detail.4 votesThank you for your idea. Could you tell us which scenarios you want to enable with this functionality?

Add option to pass OCSP "must staple" to Let's Encrypt
It is possible to enable OCSP stapling, but not to pass the "must staple" option to Let's Encrypt, even though they support it, and it should be available in Plesk.

Provide migration licenses 24/7, not only on workdays
Often times migrations are done on weekends. I'd like to be able to get a migration license as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12388069544215-How-to-get-Plesk-Web-Host-edition-trial-license-for-migration at any time. The current workflow where this can only be requested and handled on weekdays during business hours can block my own workflow, e.g. when I have and emergency and absolutely must migrate.

Migrate SpamAssassin training database to a new server when using Plesk Migrator
When migrating data to a new server using Plesk Migrator, all SpamAssassin trainings are lost, hence users receive more spam on the new server than they did before. It would be good to migrate SpamAssassin training content to the new server.

Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
Meanwhile, if you want to try to install shmop yourself, these are the general steps (provided here without warranty, try it on a test server before applying it to your production system):
1) Install Plesk PHP development package:
For RPM-based OS (CentOS, RHEL, CloudLinux):
# yum install plesk-php83-devel
For Debian-based OS (Debian, Ubuntu):
# apt install plesk-php83-dev build-essential
2) Check what's the currrent version of your PHP 8.0
# /opt/plesk/php/8.3/bin/php -v
3) Download PHP source based on the version of the step 2
For example:
# wget https://www.php.net/distributions/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Please pay special attention that the version matches the one determined in step 2!
4) Extract the .tar file of the PHP downloaded
# tar -xvjf /root/php-8.3.0.tar.bz2
Again, the version shown here…

Enable/disable TLS protocol versions through Plesk GUI
I should not have to use the CLI to enable/disable TLS. This should be a GUI change, just like it is within most browsers. It should also be granular enough to enable/disable one at a time. You provide a great GUI interface...stop making us use the CLI in many cases. Create an advanced section within your settings section for items like this. Force the admin to login when going into this advanced section and have this login logged, so it can be seen later on down the road.
