Add functionality to install, modify and manage wordpress or joomla via API
Right now you can set a service plan to have WordPress or Joomla pre-installed with any new subscriptions, however the installation data such as admin usernames, passwords, site titles are randomized more so if the subscription/domain is setup via API. I think it could be nice if there was an option to install them with custom data or customize them via API. such that when installing via API, i can explicitly set the site title, admin username and passwords, database usernames and passwords etc.

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…

Update Themes > YesService Plan 2
Update Wordpress > Yes
Update Plugins > Yes

Add a migration tool to WP Toolkit from other software installation platforms (Installatron / Softaculous)
We've been using Installatron for ages, but WP Toolkit has become a really powerful tool over the last couple of years. While we can work on integrating our systems with WP Toolkit directly, one major obstacle is moving clients over from one system to the other - including their backups / update settings / etc.
I'd love to find a way to make migrations over to the WP Toolkit seamless!
