  3. To add noindex,nofollow to default page

    I think it would be logical to add

    <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">

    to index.html (plesk default page) that is returned by plesk when no pages can be found. It would prevent robots to crawl and index this page.

  4. you should add a shell or a terminal directly linked to the web hosting server

    Adding a shell or terminal directly linked to the web hosting server can provide users with direct access to server commands and functionalities. Here are some considerations and points to keep in mind when implementing such a feature:

    Security Measures:

    Security should be a top priority. Ensure that the shell or terminal is properly secured to prevent unauthorized access.
    Implement authentication mechanisms to verify the identity of users before granting access to the shell.
    Use encryption (e.g., HTTPS) to secure communication between the client and the server.
    Access Control:

    Implement access controls to restrict certain commands or functionalities based on…

  5. Webserver default site: Option for "none, without Plesk default page"

    I don't want to assign a specific web site for the server's IP address, but I also don't want to show visitors the Plesk default page. Current workaround is to create a domain "defaultpage.tld" that delivers an empty page to make the monitoring happy.

    Downside of this is that it wastes a domain license.

    Would be nice, in "Tools & Settings > IP Addresses" to have another option "none, empty page".

    For technical reasons of how Apache works, it is not possible to create an empty page site without defining any ip address. A web server must listen to an ip address to being able to respond, even if it responds with an empty page. Apache sieves traffic through all known domain names that are configured on the server until it finds no more virtual host entries. Then it defaults to the standard page.

    This standard page is the Plesk page that you see. But there is an easy solution to achieve exactly what you want: You can simply replace the content of that standard page with anything you like. You can put a website into it or you can remove the existing file content so that the web server delivers the empty, white page you desire. Have a look at the content of /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs. This is your document root for…

  6. PHP modules

    Make it easier for the customers to add and remove modules without login in to SSH or doing commands to add PHP modules or extensions.

    Please update to at least Plesk Obsidian 18.0.49 as since that version, published December 20th, 2023, you can easily add PHP modules with the PECL installer directly from within Plesk: Added the ability to install extensions for PHP 7.3 and later handlers using PECL. You can manage PHP extensions in Tools & Settings > PHP Settings > choose the desired handler > Manage PECL Packages.

  8. Rights for each Domain

    Could you add the function that admins can give user rights for one domain. For example if I have 5 Domains connected, I cant give somebody rights for one of this 5 Domains. So it's mean that the person have rights dor all 5 Domains.

    already available  ·  IgorG responded

    Just create a separate subscription for one of these 5 domains and assign the user account to this subscription. In other words, just use subscriptions and assigning to needed accounts.

  9. Make web stats available to FTP accounts

    The screen says that the web stats will need authentication with ftp account. However this is false because only website owner can authenticate for the web stats. So my request is to really accept ftp users as being able to view web stats.

  10. Allow enabling nginx cache on all existing domains on the Plesk server

    I suggest adding a feature that allows you to do the equivalent of what can be done in Plesk 17.8.11 in Domains > example.com > Apache & Nginx settings > "Enable nginx caching" but for all the existing domains that are on the Plesk server at once.

    Essentially, the feature suggestion is to "Enable nginx caching" but for all the domains on the server. if there is another way please show 900 domain one by one make death

  11. Allow me to set session timeout in File Manager. It ends unexpectedly with no notice and all work in a file is lost.

    While working on a file, the session may end with no notification until I try to save the file. Then I am redirected to the login page and all of my file progress is lost. Timeout happens WAY to quickly while working.

  12. Add IP Canonicalization feature to Plesk for Windows and to Plesk for Linux

    Request: add to Plesk interface option to enable IP Canonicalization.

    IP Canonicalization - is the process of redirecting IP address to the main domain name hosted with it. It is same as URL canonicalization and it saves your website from being duplicate.

    Requirements to setup IP canonicalization:
    1) You should have dedicated IP address for domain.

    2) You sohuld have a rewrite/redirect rule (example scheme: https://203.0.113.2 -> https://example.com ) in web server conifguration.

    This can be done by means of IIS:
    https://forums.iis.net/t/1214673.aspx?IP+Canonicalization+

    or by means of Apache:

  13. Direct connection via Password and username to github or gitlab

    You integrated git into Plesk. Thats great but after all I am struggling more than 2 days until I can make it running. It would be much more easy if I siply add github or gitlab account details and clone repo per click. Like this it cost all a lot of unnesseccary time I do not have.
