  1. Add new site or modify existing site without Apache restart /graceful restart

    For example, Odin uses a system where all the website information is stored inside a NoSQL database, and apache just reads this data with a special module:

  2. View Virtual Host Template

    There should be an option to view/preview Virtual Host Template.
    At this moment it is only possible to make the template locally and upload prepared archive to the server.

    Thank you for your feedback.  Unfortunately, this request contains several different suggestions, and  it’s not technically possible to properly handle them inside one  request. Please consider creating separate feature requests for each of  the items below:

    - PHP – compiled with maximum support for all extensions
    You can use PHP from original OS vendor repo.  Please create a new request and let us know why do you not use OS vendor  repo and what exactly extension do you need.

    - NGINX – compiled with maximum support for all extensions
    Each new module affects nginx. Could you explain what exactly nginx  module do you want? Please create a new request and let us know what  module do you need.

    - Apache – compiled with maximum support for all extensions
    Plesk doesn’t ship Apache, it only downloads it from original OS vendor repo.

  4. Support for modern web statistics programs such as GoAccess

    It would be nice if https://goaccess.io/ was supported for statistics.

    • Written in C, so faster than a perl script such as awstats.
    • Can be used in the traditional way to generate static HTML statistics pages from log files.But a more advanced integration could also provide real-time statistics.

  6. Allow to keep access logs on the server even after the domain is deleted

    When a domain is removed from Plesk, all corresponding data is removed as well. However, due to government laws, it is needed to keep access logs for a year, even if the domain is removed from the server.
    Please add some option to keep such logs.

    No further information on which government regulation of which country requires storage of such logs for a year after a domain has been removed was given. Also in many countries the opposite is required, think of EU GDPR for example. Finally, you always have the option to not do delete an account right away, but to suspend it so that all data remains available. We must decline this request.

  7. Add support for XHProf/XHGui

    It would be nice to have XHProf/XHGui for PHP profiling out of box since this feature maybe very useful for developing PHP-based site.

    Both, XHProf and XHGui, are popular only among a very limited, special interest user community. We're afraid that as this feature request only got 2 votes in 2 years it is hard to justify the investment into developing an out-of-the-box installation routine for these two components.

    Luckily, XHProf is available as a PECL extension. PECL extensions can be installed in Plesk using the PECL installer through "Tools & Settings" > "General Settings" > "PHP Settings" > Your PHP version > "Manage PECL Packages". 

    XHGui is more tricky. It requires MongoDB and an installation through Github sources. However, users who are so knowledgeable and experienced that they use XHProf or XHGui for their work will have no difficulties in installing either tool from the console. Please refer to one of the many XHGui tutorials available online.

  9. Predefined excluded locations for nginx caching

    It would be helpful if nginx caching feature contained a predefined list for exclusion locations by default. 
    For example: 
    /wp-admin/ 
    /basket/ 
    /Control/ 
    /.htaccess

    Thank you for your input!
    Unfortunately, we have to close your request, because over the years it has not become quite popular for further implementation.

  18. Don't hardcode apache LogFormat in templates

    This is simple. All log files are generated by a given format declared in */templates/default/server.php. That's bad if you want to add something to the log format like "%{X-Forwarded-For}i"
