FileManager ability to upload file to server by link
In filemanager we have abilities to create empty file and upload file from PC. I want to get ability to set link and upload file to server. To install some app now I should download distributive from vendor's site to my local pc, then I should upload it via FTP/FM on server. I want to upload it to server directly to save my time and nerves.

Enable/disable debug in Plesk via CLI
The suggestion is to implement CLI utilities to enable/disable Plesk debug:
plesk debug -enable
enabled = on
filter.priority = 7
show.utilexec = on
show.utilexec_io = onplesk debug -enable --sql
The same as previous + show.sql_query = onplesk debug -disable
Now it is necessary to remember panel.ini path (/usr/local/psa/admin/conf/), copy panel.ini.sample, then edit it manually every time. And the same procedure to disable it.
33 votesIt's enough to call the following command:
plesk conf panel.ini

Configurable Admin Permissions
Since we are now able to create more than 1 Administrator within Plesk - it would be a good addition if one would be able to give those Admins particular Rights within Plesk.
I don't want my "Everyday-Admin" to be able to stop Services within Plesk or even Shut-Down the whole Server within the Panel ...I want them to do their work with Customers/Domains/Hostings ... but access to the "real Admin Areas" should be restricted ...

This functionality was added in Plesk Obsidian RTM release. We suggest you upgrade to the latest version and check it out.

distupgrade for Debian and Ubuntu (i.e. Debian Squeeze to Debian Wheezy)
This used to work with previous Debian versions (e.g. Etch -> Lenny, Lenny -> Squeeze) but it doesn´t seem to be possible with Squeeze -> Wheezy.
The proposed way of "updating" is to make a backup and restore it on a new server. As we have 50+ servers this simply isn´t feasible: We cannnot get a new server and transfer multiple customer domains (some using external DNS) for each of those servers. This would cause long downtimes and problems with data being transferred that is changed on the old server (from website users).
It has been possible before so it…

Add support of google authenticator to improve security of login process
"The Google Authenticator project includes implementations of one-time passcode generators for several mobile platforms, as well as a pluggable authentication module (PAM). One-time passcodes are generated using open standards developed by the Initiative for Open Authentication (OATH) (which is unrelated to OAuth).
These implementations support the HMAC-Based One-time Password (HOTP) algorithm specified in RFC 4226 and the Time-based One-time Password (TOTP) algorithm specified in RFC 6238."

Change MySQL with MariaDB or possibility to chose
It seems that more and more start to change MySQL with MariaDB
"Specifically, Google is moving to its own customized version of MariaDB 10.0. This version of MariaDB is equivalent to MySQL 5.6. Google's version of MariaDB, according to Cole, is "Not really true 'forks' [but are] branches for internal use." He added that Google had been making its own tweaks to the MySQL DBMS family for years."
no offense to oracle .............

Visually masking internal IP to external IP for Plesk behind NAT
Plesk does not have a feature to visually mask in the panel the internal IP address being used with external one used in NAT. We have a scenario where the customer has specifically asked for the same during Plesk trial although not quite sure how exactly this will work (where IPs should be masked, how will be IP for masking will be selected, etc.)
The main issue is that since Plesk Panel resides on a private IP, all the server information located in the panel, contains the private IP and not the public one. Is there a way to "map"…
