Add an option to unlink a site from WordPress Toolkit list.
Hi. I have about 50 sites on my Plesk server. Some are Wordpress sites developed outside this server and uploaded after development ended. Once I scan the server, all Wordpress sites are added to the WordPress Toolkit list.
The problem is not all customers are paying for regular bases maintenance so I don't want their website to be on my WordPress Toolkit list.
Now I can't unlink any of the sites in the list.6 votesYou can unlink individual instances, but they will be added back when WPT performs its daily automatic scan, so it’s not a fitting solution for you.
We are planning to add the ability to permanently detach instances from WPT. Please continue voting for this feature to help us prioritize it accordingly.

Update custom/premium assets like themes and plugins with Smart Updates
The WordPress Toolkit and Smart Updates shall register custom/premium assets like themes and plugins which aren't available on WordPress.org. Basically, if the Dashboard in the WordPress backend shows updates, the toolkit and Smart Updates should be able to recognize them and and include them into the update and test.
5 votesIs it possible to list plugins and themes which are not visible / processed / updated by WordPress Toolkit?
WPT already supports custom plugins and themes that are working with WordPress via standard means. In other words, if you can install a plugin/theme update through the standard WordPress admin > Plugins / Themes interface, WPT should be able to do this as well.

Grant the permission to manage only the WordPress Toolkit to additional subscription users
We want to create an additional user assigned to a specific user role providing only permission to manage WordPress Toolkit, but this is not possible in Plesk.
In order to allow an additional user to manage WordPRess Toolkit, it's required to grant permission to "Create and manage sites". This permission allows to the additional user to modify as well the Web Hosting Access, this means that the additional user can modify the password for the owner of the subscription, and we don't want this. We want a restricted environment for this additional user, so they can only manage WordPress Toolkit…

Enable "Compatible With" field in Worpress Theme and Plugin
This is an important update without which you can not guarantee the installation of themes and plugins in compatible versions, causing rework.
Each version of a plugin or theme is compatible with a range of versions of Wordpress and other plugins that are used together to provide the features declared by the developer of a given plugin or theme.
At a first moment you can add the fields below in the "Upload Pugin" or "Upload Theme" screen:
Wordpress Minimum Version
Wordpress Maximum Version
These values can be used in the "Install Wordpress" screen to validate the versions being used in…5 votesThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases, if it will be popular.

Update or Status notifications from the WP-Toolkit by E-Mail
In the Plesk WordPress Toolkit there is so far no possibility to switch on a notification if something changes in the status of a page. e.g. SSL / security settings or the latter and most interesting updates! For WordPress there are several plugins that take over the update notification function, but they don't always work. But since the WordPress toolkit has the function, it would be great if you could turn on an e-mail notification!

WordPress plugins status for multisite instances
Please add possibility to manage plugins of multisite instances from WordPress toolkit.
Currently, the status of WordPress plugins for the main website is always showed as disabled despite the fact that in WordPress nnetwork they are enabled.
Thus managing them from Plesk directly is impossible.5 votes -
Add support to the WordPress Toolkit for sites with different "WordPress URL" and "Site URL" settings
The WordPress settings has an option for the WordPress URL and the Site URL to be different - i.e. the WordPress site files are in a sub-directory. But sites in this configuration do not work properly in the WordPress Toolkit.
Given this is a core feature of WordPress and one used by a lot of sites, I think support for it in the WordPress Toolkit should be a priority.
Details from WordPress about this option:
