Edit database connection information
Please add a feature in which is possible to edit database's connection information.
e.g Be possible to add port connection info alongside db server hostname, or add a field in which any note could be set.
4 votesPort and hostname cannot be edited, because they are set by the service and the host configuration. If you wish to change the hostname, please set the new hostname in /etc/hosts and edit it in Plesk as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213941265--How-to-change-or-get-the-server-hostname-on-Plesk-server. If you wish to change the database port, this must be done in the database configuration and depends on database type and version. Please refer to the man pages of the database server that your system is using. Normally, it is not advised to change the port.

Add domain reputation based spam protection lookup in server-wide mail settings.
Add domain reputation based spam protection lookup such as the feed from dbl.dq.spamhaus.net, in addition to the existing IP DNSBL.
4 votesThe feature request is asking to protect recipients from spam by a domain reputation based lookup. However, this is already available by simply adding a suitable DNSBL like Senderscore to the DNSBL settings. Other solutions would require Plesk to operate their own DNSBL service, but that is not the task of a control panel.

Secure Plesk UI and mail server with Let's encrypt during Plesk installation
During installation, both Plesk and the Plesk mail server are automatically secured with a free self-signed SSL/TLS certificate.
That leads to SSL warning when you open Plesk panel and you have to do additional actions to secure Plesk with valid certificate.
The idea is that if Plesk hostname point to this server - install Let's encrypt certificate to secure Plesk UI and Mail server during Plesk installation.
If hostname can not be resolved or points to another server - install self-signed certificate.4 votes-- PD

Allow storage of second email address so Nublue invoices send to me AND our accounts department!
It would be helpful if a second email address was stored so Nublue invoice emails were sent to BOTH me and our accounts department. At present I have to remember to forward each one to them. Also causes problems when I am on leave. PLEASE!!!
4 votesPlease rethink the solution approach: You can simply add a forwarding list to any mailbox in Plesk and use that mailbox' address to receive invoices. This way all invoices sent to that mailbox will automatically be forwarded to as many recipients as you configure in the forwarding list.

Compile nginx with ngx_http_fastcgi_module
Compile nginx with the ngxhttpfastcgi_module so that it's possible to use the nginx fast cgi cache. It can make a basic WordPress site extremely fast as PHP doesn't need to be executed at all but the static page can be served straight away by nginx.
There are even several WordPress plugins that can empty the cache automatically when new content is published or old content updated.
I think this would be quite a simple change from Plesk's side as the only required think I can think of would be just to add the module at compilation time to…
4 votesnginx is compiled with http_fastcgi_module now.

plesk 12.5 windows to have auto banning of IP for IP address that uses brute force to hack user email accounts.
I was looking at my smtp activity log file and I realize that it is possible to use brute force to try to hack into someone's email account.
Basically the log shows this IP address logging in with the user's password, then the server returns the message, invalid user or password.
The same IP then tries again automatically with another password and it just keeps going none stop.
Would be great if the system can just automatically ban this IP after maybe 10 failed attempt. So it doesn't eventually break through.4 votesAlready available in scope of fail2ban Plesk feature.

Support mod_dso for proftpd
I'm trying to limit certain FTP accounts by IP via proftpd config, but can't due to some modules being unavailable (namely modifsession and moddso).
If moddso was included, other modules can be loaded at runtime (such as modifsession), allowing the config to be a lot more customizable.

Custom FCGI Timeout per vHost
Please add an option to customers hosting configuration to configurate FCGI-Timeout for the PHP Proccess.
At the moment we have no chance to change this timeout for a specific customer - to a higher value.
If we change the vhost file, it is overwrite on the next configuration changes.thansk so far
4 votesThe feature is available in Plesk since version 11.5.
You should just set “max_execution_time” in PHP settings in Plesk, and then it will automatically set required timeouts for FastCGI and FPM.

Add max_connection to server-wide email settings
I frequently run into the problem not to be able to connect to my email server. The log shows: "Maximum connection limit reached"
If you have multiple email accounts, say for different domains, and you use them on your laptop, iphone and ipad, the connections sum up very quick one or the other can't connect anymore.
To get rid of this I'd like to have an option inside server wide email settings to be able to set MAXDAEMONS and MAXPERIP for courier-imap service, so I don't have to patch the
/etc/courier-imap/imapdmanually.4 votesOptions “Maximum number of connections (IMAP, POP3, IMAP over SSL/TLS, or POP3 over SSL/TLS)” and “Maximum number of connections for a user per IP address” already exists in server-wide Mail Settings in Plesk Onyx 17.8

What about a start or tutorial page for new users built into the Plesk web app?
My dedicated Windows Server 2012 server came with Plesk 12 installed.
I'm new to Plesk. All of those settings are quite overwhelming. I don't even know where to start. Do I create users first? Do I create Service Plans first? How does a first time user even know where to start?
