  1. Require domain TXT record verification before adding domain to Plesk.

    Require domain TXT record verification before adding domain to Plesk.

    Plesk need to implement an option to require domains to be verified like for example Let's Encrypt with a TXT record with a key value, that Plesk can check on an admin specified interval like 5 mins perhaps, with a self-cleaning feature that removes un-verified domains after X days.

    So as Plesk administrator you can activate the domain verification option on subscription level, that requires the customers to verify their domain, when using the function "add domain".

    So "add domain" should have an initial state of "awaiting verification" before it…

  2. Better Database Server Assignment / Visibility

    Currently you only have the option to do nothing and "SHOW ALL" database servers or restrict to a single database server per subscription by using the permissions tab. This means each user that falls under this criteria need a custom service plan.

    We would like to display more than a single database server for clients that choose to pay extra for an additional database server that only they can use. Some projects grow and they need an additional database server - or in some cases they need to migrate data between the old database server (sometimes local to plesk server)…

  3. Add the ability to apply DNS Template to existing domains on Windows

    This feature exists on Linux. So it will be great to have the same on Windows as well. It will make it easier to manage DNS on servers with many domains.

  4. Extend the possibility to manage Client permissions via CLI

    Currently, in Plesk it is possible to manage general permissions for customers via Plesk Panel or CLI. Sometimes it is necessary to manage Client permissions in more precise way in command line.
    Please add the feature to hide/show separate menus via CLI, e.g. enable/disable such menus separately:
    -Web Hosting Access
    -SSL/TLS certificates
    -Limit Outgoing Messages
    Also, it would be useful to restrict access to edit separate paragraphs such as:
    -Hosting Settings> Certificate
    -Hosting Settings>Web statistics (Protect access to your web statistics with your FTP username and password)

  6. Changing Mailbox Sizes Permission

    I'm looking to do what many other web hosts do which is to sell off mailbox space.

    I don't want to increase everyone's mailbox size yet, this seems to be the only way.

    There is a permission that I can remove from most people to stop them editing their mailbox size. But the Owner / Customer that I'm selling to will still have access to set their own limits (up to the max limit)

    I want to be able to offer mailboxes at 2gb, 5gb, 10gb etc. But not allow all of the customers mailboxes up to that level.

    If…

  7. emails : [Alerting] Load average

    when sending alerts about high load of server, i think it would be a Good idea to receive some kind of snapshot of processes list, maybe not the full list but at least first 10 or 20 heavier processes

    In the meantime you receive email and go to panel to see what is happening. things goes back to normal

  10. Add a possibility to convert existing domains like 'sub.example.com' to subdomains of 'example.com'

    If for some reason 'sub.example.com' was added to Plesk as domain the wildcard certificate for 'example.com' doesn't cover it and it is required to issue separate certificates. Please add an ability to convert existing domains like 'sub.example.com' to subdomains of 'example.com'.

  12. XML-API: Enable Secret Key for Resellers (and Customers)

    Currently, Secret Keys are only available to system admins:
    https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/api-rpc/about-xml-api/reference/managing-secret-keys.37121/

    It would be great that also resellers (and potentially customers) could create such a key to not have to store user credentials on a server.

    (What was the rational to prevent this?)

  13. Add warning to Plesk interface after license downgrade to Web Admin

    Add warning about domains that would be unavailable for management from Plesk when installing Web Admin key instead of Web Host or Web Pro.

    Current warnings at License Management don't cover this:
    Warning: Resellers management is turned off but you have several resellers(1).

    OR

    Warning: Customers management is turned off but you have several customers(1).

    Now the customer's have to follow this guide:

    p.s.: based on a comment to this article.

  14. MSSQL hostname change for an existing MSSQL database server

    When a MSSQL database server is upgraded to a new version, the name can not be changed from within Plesk and it needs to be done manually into the Plesk database once the name is set on MSSQL side.

  17. Allow to merge multiple email notifications into one

    Allow merging multiple email notifications into one, this to avoid bombarding for example new Customers with 2 to 4 mails instead of 1.

    At the moment variables like {{ Domain }} cannot be used inside the "Notification of the customer creation" mail for example

  18. Add CLI for managing Scheduled Tasks to be able to create multiple tasks at once

    In Plesk, there is no CLI for managing scheduled tasks. Thus, if it's necessary to create multiple scheduled tasks, it's required to create them one-by-one in GUI.
    CLI for managing scheduled tasks will allow creating multiple scheduled tasks by invoking a CLI utility in a script.

  19. Notification about extension updates

    Inform Plesk administrator about the fact that these or other extensions were updated. It will be useful to track that bugs in extensions are fixed if it is known that "Bug will be fixed in extension (for example) version 1.5.2".
