I'd like to make PHP, NGINX, Apache - compiled with maximum support for all extensions
I'd like to make PHP, NGINX, Apache - compiled with maximum support for all extensions
Очень хочется чтоб PHP, NGINX, Apache - были скомпилированы с максимальной поддержкой всех расширений6 votesThank 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.— AY

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.

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.3 votesNo 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.

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.
2 votesBoth, 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.

Add the ability to make a redirect from a website secured by Let's Encrypt to the same website but with another language
The use case is the following:
1. There is a example.com which uses load balancer
2. There are serveral versions of the same website with different localization. example.fi, example.ru e.t.c.
3. example.com is secured with Let's encrypt.
4. Creating redirect using .htaccess
as a summary: to have this feature in one click, for example as onother hosting type.1 voteThis request has nothing to do with SSL. It is about localization websites and redirecting from one website to another in dependence of a language information, e.g. the user's preferred browser language, or geolocation. Such redirects are not the task of a web server control panel, but typical website script tasks, e.g. when a shop website identifies the country a user is from and forwards him to the correct websites servicing that country.

Add the option to bind Vhost to custom Apache ports so that accessing example.com:8081 the request will bypass nginx
Sometimes it is required process the request via a usual Apache+nginx setup (ports 80/443+7080/7081) and at the same time to send a new request to a custom Apache ports e.g. 8081/44381 so when entering example.com:8081 the requests will bypass nginx and will be processes only by Apache.
So in this scenario re-binding the ports is not enough, we need to have the default ones plus the custom ones.1 voteUpd: Sorry, we are closing the request as no information was provided for over a month.
