Automatically add new Obsidian release to mirror repository
Plesk Obsidian is released in the following way:
PSA_ 18.0.21
PSA_ 18.0.23
PSA_ 18.0.24
...
Currently, if local repository is used each new version has to be added manually. Automatic synchronization would be a nice feature.7 votesThank you for your input!

Server load balancing / multi-host
Hi,
We'd love to see the possibility of horizontal scaling on Plesk for WordPress websites. Meaning, we'd like to host 1 WP website, on different instances (servers), in different geographical areas.
This setup would need to share 1 DB (i.e. Amazon RDS), but pull the assets from geographically different servers. Many times a CDN is not enough.
Note: this is not a failover request (https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/5284370)
Thanks

Let users choose the preferred log storage path (log file location)
Plesk should store all logs in the standard linux location of /var/log instead of storing logs in /var/www/vhost/system/<domain>/logs. In our case, we run very optimized Plesk environment w/ /var/www/vhost setup on it's own Enterprise RAID SSD. But we can't optimize Plesk hosting when the access logs, error logs, etc are also being written under the same partition (ie /var/www/vhost/...).

When removing a domain from Plesk, if the domain is associated with other domains then a warning should appear to show what associated domains would also be removed. Without this warning, it may remove the entire Plesk subscription along with all associated domains, which is not easily recoverable.

Add a feature wizard / feature showcase for feature on updates
TL;DR: This is a feature request for adding a feature wizard/showcase (for lack of a better name) to Plesk. Something that simply let's administrators choose whether they want to enable the new features that have become available when a Plesk update has been installed.
Detailed use case:
Currently, often new features are enabled by default when a Plesk update gets installed on existing Plesk installations. This is not always desirable and can cause confusion with Plesk server administrators. For example administrators might not want to enable new features directly as they become available because they want to familiarize themself with the feature first. Which…6 votesThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Encrypt mysql connections
In https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/32881723 the database connections from a Plesk server to an elsewhere hosted database was added, but we also want encrypted connections from a client or other server to databases hosted on the Plesk server.
Example: An ERP system hosts its data on a centralized MySQL database on the Plesk server. Between the clients and the server all such data is currently transmitted in plain text through the Internet. Instead this data should be encrypted, because normally such data contains personal information such as names, addresses.

When Nginx and Apache are used, Apache should only listen to ports 7080 and 7081 on localhost.
As discussed in https://talk.plesk.com/threads/security-attack-surface-ports-7080-and-7081.368543 security should be reinforced: When Nginx and Apache are used, Apache should only listen to ports 7080 and 7081 on localhost. When Nginx is not used, Apache should only listen to ports 80 and 443.

Managing crontab via CLI
It would be very conenient to be able to manage the subscriptions' scheduled tasks via CLI.
6 votescronjobs can easily be managed by Linux commands already. They may not be sourced from Plesk, but all tools already exist on the operating system. As cronjobs are read by Plesk from disk, manipulating the corresponding files on disk will set everything you wish. Individual cron files are stored in /var/spool/cron and can be text-edited. You can add files, edit files, append files and delete files using Linux commands. You can also stream-edit files (e.g. insert a commend tag before a line with sed) and also create Linux control while-loops to apply changes to filtered files. Cron can also be controlled directly (https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/crontab.1.html).
Please let us know in details what you are missing or please provide an example how you would like Plesk to work with cron instead.

Notification interval setup
Right now the notifications in Plesk via Tools and Settings > Notifications can only be setup as per the starting condition when expiring (I.E.: 10 days in advance).
It would be good to have more settings such as the interval as, as of now, the notifications are sent daily once the condition is met and it would be nice to be able to set it with mor flexibility (I.E.: each 5 days).

Event manager: Add a hook before an event is processed
Hello all,
I hope this idea can be shared with many of you.Actually in the Events manager you can handle a task, an action you can run AFTER the event occurs. Can be really usefull to have the same BEFORE, I'm going to explain:
Make an example can be when a Subscription or a Domain is going to be removed from the hosting server, can be really usefull to backup data or something else similar before the task is executed.
At moment is impossible to handle a task before an event occurs, we hope can be usefull for other…
