Increase migration speed
The current Migration Manager (Linux) is painfully slow. A full server migration (+/- 300GB of data) over Gigabit takes more then 12 hours. During this time lots of website will have changed MySQL data getting lost after the migration.
The issue with the migration system in its current state is that if does site-by-site migration. If migrates site A, then goes to site B, then C, etc, etc. Because each site migration consists of a alot of different steps the servers are mostly waiting for each other to finish some process like creating mailboxes.
The load on both the source…
45 votesIn 12.5 we changed from PMM that performed operations step by step to Migrator extension, which performs data transfer in multiple data streams. The feature to make it fully asynchronous operations not only for transfer stage as well as other performance improvements (specifically for Windows migrations) is in the cards.
Please let us know on https://talk.plesk.com if still have problems with migration speed.

Support dynamically assigned IPv6 addresses on Plesk for Linux
Currently, Plesk for Linux filters out IPv6 addresses that were assigned dynamically by use of Stateless Address Autoconfiguration, or other means: https://plesk.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000239114
This greatly limits IPv6 functionality in Plesk due to the fact that all hyperscalers (Amazon, Google, Azure, Vultr, etc.) provide IPv6 addresses using the autoconfiguration method.
43 votesBeta support for dynamic IPv6 addresses was added to Plesk 18.0.27 version – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18027

default chroot PHP cli should use Plesk panel PHP version & settings
Currently when a user uses SSH to execute PHP cli commands, it does not reflect the settings chosen in Plesk panel (it seems to be the default OS vendor PHP). While other PHP versions are available in "/opt/plesk/php/..." the current solution is neither ideal nor transparent to the user (most of them don't even know this path).
I suggest that the default chrooted PHP command
-) should use the same version as chosen as in plesk panel
-) and should use ini settings (memorylimit, maxexecution_time) as chosen in plesk panelIdeally this should even be possible on domain…
43 votesThe changes implemented in the Plesk Obsidian 18.0.44 release https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18044 The console now works using a domain’s PHP version instead of the system PHP.

Redirect from HTTP to HTTPS for secured webmails
You should place a redirect from http://webmail.domain.tld to https. Even the option "Hosting Settings > Permanent SEO-safe 301 redirect from HTTP to HTTPS" won't redirect the webmail; in any case these should be two separate options as the website may not support HTTPS yet.
41 votesHi!
The functionality is now available:
1. Linux: in the SSL It! Plesk Extension: https://ext.plesk.com/packages/3c4117f6-c05c-4d3b-9173-60f10096a9c4-sslit
2. Windows: in Plesk Obsidian (by default)How to find it in SSL It! Extension:
1. install SSL It! Extension (it’s available for Plesk 17.8+)
2. go to > SSL/TLS Certificates
3. if there is no SSL Certificate installed on the domain – issue one (using, for example, free Let’s Encrypt SSL Certificate)
4. if an SSL Certificate is installed on the domain, there is a switcher “HTTP→HTTPS redirect”, this switcher has an option “Webmail”, turn it on.
5. Voila!We would appreciate hearing your feedback on the implementation of this functionality. Thanks in advance!

it should be possible for the admin to login as a reseller user
It should be possible for the admin to login as a reseller user, this is necessary to give good support to the reseller.
It is not pratical to ask the reseller is username/password to login for suport, CPANEL and HSPHERE does this correctly

Be prepared for Debian Buster
Last time, it took the Plesk team quite a long time to support the new Debian version. As Debian Buster will probably be released in the following months, it would be very nice if a new Plesk version was available shortly after.
36 votesHi,
I’m glad to inform you that Debian 10 “Buster” Support for Plesk Obsidian is now Available with Plesk Obsidian 18.0.28 update #1!
Note: we do not consider support for any dist-upgrade scenarios for Debian 10, the best way to move from old Debian or other OS is Plesk Migrator.Just to remind, you always can check ETAs for new Operation Systems support in Plesk Obsidian FAQ: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/faq/#s1q6
Full Changelog for Plesk Obsidian 18.0.28 Update 1 is here: https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18028-mu1

Add historical CPU and RAM usage by subscription in Plesk Repair Kit
Currently, Plesk Repair Kit extension does monitor in real time the CPU and RAM usage per domain: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007784053-Is-it-possible-to-monitor-CPU-Memory-like-in-Health-Monitor-per-domain-subscription-basis-
However, it doesn't register/save and historical usage. It would be really helpful that this extension would keep a CPU and RAM usage history, a graph, a timeline, in order to plan CPU and RAM limits set by CGroups Manager.

Roundcube mobile/tablet skin default
It seems difficult to manually install a mobile skin on Roundcube, and if it should succeed the plesk would overwrite the config made on updates. The default skin provided with plesk should support mobile devices, as this is an important feature nowadays.
36 votesThe new Roundcube 1.4.x was added in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.26 (https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#plesk-18026 ). Released with Roundcube version 1.4.0, Elastic is Roundcube's first official responsive skin. It has support for desktops, tablets and phones. Since Plesk Obsidian 18.0.47, Plesk Control Panel contains Roundcube 1.6.0.

WordPress Installation tool: Change directory Url
It needs a possibility to change the URL or reload the correct Url of the installtion.
36 votesStarting with WPT 4.6, WordPress administrators can automatically update their website URL in the WordPress database and wp-config.php file based on the actual current URL. This procedure is particularly useful after migrating a website from a different location like your local workstation. The Update Site URL feature is available in the “hamburger” (context drop-down menu) on a WordPress site card.
If you have feedback on this feature, let us know at our forum (https://talk.plesk.com) or other communication channels.
