Bind Plesk to port 8443 to all existing domains
Please add the ability to bind Plesk on port 8443 on all existing domains, so the customers would be able to login via their own domains, instead of using a specific domain/IP.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion. However Plesk can already be accessed via any domain on port 8443.

Select certain IP addresses to access staging sites
Staging domains would want to either block all IP addresses except for a few (developers and clients) or redirect to the production site.
2 votesThe per-domain setting of allowed or blocked IP address is already available. In the domain's dashboard select the "Hosting & DNS" tab, then "Apache & nginx settings". On that page configure "Deny access to the site" with "Enter custom value". There you can block ip address and subnets or all from access, but you can also allow ip addresses and subnets to pass the barrier.

Recreate /var/www/vhosts/system folder and sub-folders with plesk repair fs or any other command
Plesk's 'plesk repair fs' utility detects that folders do not exist, however, it fails to recreate them inside '/var/www/vhosts/system'. A new command or adjustments to the current command should allow recreation of such folders like 'example.com/logs', 'example.com/conf'. When manually created, files are created by the repair tool.
2 votesInstead of "plesk repair fs" please use "plesk repair web <domainname>" which will repair the /system contents.

Add an staging option similar to the WP-Toolkit one for other CMS systems and applications
Would be great to have an option to create a staging site for other CMS/Applications, similar to what is offered in WP-Toolkit for WordPress.
For example for Shopware, etc
2 votesIt will not be possible to add such an option to all popular software, as there are too many different applications used in too many different scenarios. Instead, Plesk already includes "website copying" and "website import" functions that make it very easy to clone an existing installation to another domain or subdomain. Exporting and importing a database is also available and very easy to use. Please choose these options if you want to clone a website.
I you are looking at a functionality like the WP Toolkit for other software, Plesk has a free API for extensions, so that the vendors of the software packages can provide their own toolkits to manage their software.

Separate server scheduled tasks from webspace' scheduled tasks in Plesk Admin license
On a Plesk running with Plesk Web Pro or Web Host license, the customers have the ability to go to Domains > example.com > Scheduled Tasks.
However, on a Plesk Admin license, the user can only manage the Scheduled tasks from Tools & Settings > Scheduled Tasks. Due to the fact that there are more than 20 tasks created by root user, it's very hard to manage and monitor the scheduled tasks set by the customer.
Please, add one of the following options:
- The ability to go to Domains > example.com > Scheduled Tasks
OR
- An option to…2 votesYou can click on the column header "Subscription" in the admin's scheduled task list to group the tasks by subscription.

better breadcrumbs in plesk 12.5
have a issue with the new plesk12.5 interface. when you are logged in as a hosting administrator, making changes to a subscription or a domain, the breadcrumbs at the top of the page are not as good as they were in plesk 12.0
example...
in plesk 12.0 the breadcrumbs would red: "home->subscriptions->subscriptoinname->websites and Domains->domains.tld then state something like "Manage Log Files of domain.tld"in pleask 12.5, it now reads: home->doamins and then states something like "Logs of domain.tld"
this new style is not very helpful to move around.
it was MUCH MUCH MUCH better the way it was before...2 votesThis part of Plesk UI was seriously improved in latest Plesk Onyx 17.8 version. Please consider upgrade possibility.

Resource limit alerts when subscription approaching limit
Currently email alerts are only sent out when a subscription has breached a limit such as drive space utilisation.
Would be good if an alert could be sent out when the limits are being approached for example when a subscription is at 80% space utilisation. This will alert the owner that they need to take action before their site gets suspended.
2 votesYou probably need to set some value in “Notify me when the disk space usage reaches a value of:” in a service plan or subscription settings. They are exactly for this purpose.
