Preset the option to block XML-RPC requests for new WordPress installations
Hello!
It would be nice to have a feature where one can select XML-RPC to be blocked for all newly installed WordPress websites installed via the WordPress Toolkit in Plesk.
At the moment, only the option to preset disabled wp-cron.php is available, but no such option is present for blocking requests to XML-RPC.
The customers never use it, but also do not block it from their end and it is a hassle to do it manually for every new WP site.
Would it be possible to add such a feature to the WP Toolkit settings?1 voteThank you for your suggestion. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Plesk Backup & Restore IV - protocol functionality
Plesk Backup & Restore IV
I personally think it's better to save all backup logs in a MariaDB / mySQL database table so that I can search for problems there later. So searchable logs with timestamps and users per domain / all domains, sometimes also by topic such as "email" / "database" / "files" / "configuration"

Plesk Backup & Restore III - Wrong Option
The output during import in any combination whether "database only", "files only", "configuration only" is really insufficient, no information is passed on, e.g. the individual steps mentioned above, when importing a "domain" the domains all run as above, but for which task and how far the individual task is completely missing. Perhaps the old progress bar should be kept and another one should be shown where the individual steps are carried out, the more details the better.
At the end after the import, unfortunately you can only see the "date and time" and not what was imported at all. I'm…

Plesk Backup & Restore Part II
Plesk Backup & Restore
In my opinion, it makes no sense to import a backup where the software only "Only the configuration of the selected objects" means that if you click the wrong button, the database data can no longer be imported.
The databases have to be deleted manually in order to then select the correct setting "Configuration and contents of the selected objects". There is no setting to "Overwrite configuration and contents".

Please Provide Better Notification Capabilities
Plesk needs a full featured notification solution, so users can customize what notifications they want to see, from whatever service is running on Plesk. For example the Plesk backups only allow for notification if the backup fails. Why not have a notification for either situation, success or failure. This is what I am referring to when I say the notifications need to be more robust.

Nginx-only hostings (without Apache component installed on Plesk)
Hi,
It seems some Plesk users would like to have the ability to install Plesk without the Apache component (apache-free, nginx-only setup).
We do not clearly understand cases when it is required. Why using "Nginx-Only Hosting" (https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/customer-guide/72320/#nginx-only-hosting) on a per-website base is not an option (which also provides more flexibility)? 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.1 voteThank you for your idea. Could you tell us which scenarios you want to enable with this functionality?

Hidden Primary DNS without NS RR
in Plesk it is impossible to configure the SOA Primary Nameserver without a NS RR.
The SOA template should support Hidden Primary NameServer and the Zone file generation should always use the Hidden Primary NameServer in the Domain SOA entry.
Example:
@ IN SOA ns1.hidden-primary.tld ...
...
domain.tld. IN NS ns1.secondary.tld.
domain.tld. IN NS ns2.secondary.tld.1 voteThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

Add permissions for ModSecurity like WordPress
WordPress has permissions at the subscription and service plan level that allow controlling customer's access to it individually.
There should be similar options for ModSecurity without having to disable all the hosting settings with the Hosting Management Settings permission.

Add Storage Location to DB Copy Functionality
Currently the db copy functionality only allows for a default location that is where the db server is located. I would ask that you provide the ability to add a second predetermined location that is just a storage location and not associated with the db server. This allows us to keep the db server storage clean.

Disable statistic files generation (.stat/.webstat) for domains where AWStats/Webalizer are disabled
Please add the ability to disable generation of stat/webstat files for domains (named like accessssllog.stat and accessssllog.webstat). It would be nice to be able to disable statistics generation completely, as in some cases these files take a lot of disk space.

Use FSRM to block the execution of binaries and scripts in vhosts folder in Plesk Windows
Provide the ability to use File Server Resource Monitor to block the execution of *.bat, *.exe and *.cmd that are executables which can contain malicious code or malware and thus we don't allow them to be executed by customer by any means. The use of FSRM blocks the installation of WordPress, Joomla and woocommerce because it needs permission to run scripts in vhosts folders.

Show timestamp on plesk notifications & timeout for disappearance
Plesk should include timestamps on each notification that pops up.
We as plesk administrator should have an option to enable pop up timeout to appear in the ui and set it by seconds/hours.For example, if you add a domain and a pop up of failed SSL installation appears will make customers wonder if there's a problem and contact support.
If you installed a new wordpress instance, the pop up shows that wordpress was installed, but when?

Make the navigation tree adjustable in width.
I use nested folders on my site. The navigation tree does not have sufficient width to show them without constantly moving the bottom slider. Either the ability to drag the vertical scroll or a 'setting' would be extremely useful.
