Add mcrypt module to Plesk PHP 7.2 and newer
Add mcrypt module to Plesk PHP 7.2 and newer.
For previous PHP versions it's included out of the box.
Mcrypt 1.0.2 natively supports PHP 7.2+ (https://pecl.php.net/package/mcrypt/1.0.2)
It's, for example, required by Prestashop 1.7.x, which is quite popular among Plesk users.

Thank you for your input! We will consider this functionality for the upcoming releases if it becomes popular enough.
Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

I think you will be able to bring professionals https://sirinsoftware.com/services/embedded-software-development-services/ So that they help you with the built-in software setup. After all, users need this functionality.

This plugin is required for Magento. Making it this difficult to get Magento installed is ridiculous.

Absolutely ridiculous. Should be shipped by default like it used to.
