Enhancing the visibility of protection status in WordPress Toolkit
Recently, Plesk added a vulnerability status feature to the WordPress Toolkit, which is a great step forward. However, both the vulnerability status and the protection status are currently accessed through the same link, making it harder to find the protection details quickly.
It would benefit users, especially those less familiar with these features, if Plesk were to separate these into two distinct links. This way, the protection status would be more visible and easier to access, helping users stay informed about the security of their WordPress installations without extra steps.
For example, the current "Security: Fix vulnerabilities" entry in the…

Hide Caching (nginx) option in WP-Toolkit
The controls in the Tools section of WP-Toolkit should be customizable to allow hiding Caching (nginx) so that customers do not enable it randomly. The ability to enable nginx caching should still be available from Apache & nginx settings.
2 votesThank you for your idea! We understand that this idea originates from the fact that customers sometimes enable nginx-caching without realizing what this option does to their website. Potentially creating issues with their own website.

panel.ini setting to select 127.0.0.1 or localhost for WPT WordPress installations
When using CloudLinux's alt-php versions and when using Plesk's php version management facility instead of CloudLinux PHP Selector, the default path to mysql.sock is not set, or in some cases incorrectly set to /tmp/mysql.sock.
Any php script, including WordPress, that is set to use "localhost" to connect to the database will then fail to connect. This can cause severe problems with the WordPress Toolkit.
If, instead of localhost, the host address is set to 127.0.0.1, php uses a network connection instead of trying to connect to mysql.sock, and all is well. Naturally this assumes that mysql/mariadb listens on 127.0.0.1 but…

Enable 'Take over wp-cron.php' for all existing instances in WordPress
Please consider adding the functionality to enable 'Take over wp-cron.php' not only for newly create instances (WordPress > Settings > Disable wp-cron.php on all new WordPress installations) but for all existing WP instances at the same time. At the moment the wp-cron.php take over can only be done for one instance at the time. It would really improve the customer expirience if such functionality can be enabled for all existing instances at the same time.

Add notification for WP Toolkit regarding outdated PHP version
Currently, it is possible to manage WordPress Toolkit notifications regarding detected vulnerabilities in Tools & Settings > Notifications menu. This way customers are aware of issues with the instance.
However, customers are not being informed regarding the outdated PHP version in case PHP management is allowed for them. The info is only displayed in Plesk > WordPress > instance tab.2 votes -

Add global option to control default value of "Search Indexing Enabled" and "Debugging" for newly created site
We've WordPress development company and use Plesk for managing lots of staging servers for projects under development.
All domains are created automatically via API as part of the project's start process, and, of course, all instances that are under development should not be indexed during the development stage (as it will affect the page index of the site in production).
By default, "Search Indexing" option is enabled, and this is quite inconvenient and error prone for us (as it requires manual setup of the created instance).
Adding global server-wide configuration option for WP Toolkit that will control such default behavior…2 votese will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.
