    This cannot be done for various reasons. The example "my.cnf" is part of MySQL or MariaDB. An update of such a service is controlled by yum or apt. Blocking file access to such files will break the update process. On the other hand, Plesk is not touching such files on Plesk updates at all, so there is no need to implement a file exclusion feature for updates. For files that Plesk updates during a product update, it is essential that settings in such files are changed, else the product update will fail or the product won't be operational after the update. 

    The bottom line is: Implementing this feature will break a lot of things while the benefits are non-existent. We must decline this request.

  8. Need an feature where web users can define which folder they are allowed to access/view

    At the moment all the web user created under a domain example.com will share the same folder, user1 can see the folder/files of the user2.

    /var/www/vhost/example.com/web-users/

    I requested a way to each user has his own folder without the possilibity of the user1 see the user2 files/folder

    /var/www/vhost/example.com/web-users/user1
    /var/www/vhost/example.com/web-users/user2

    This feature request has been reviewed. However, we are not sure how a panel that is made to control settings of servers should be of any use in an environment where there is no server to control like the "Serverless" offers by Amazon. It does not seem to make much technical sense, because the base is missing for which a panel could be used.

    This request has not gained popularity during over many years either, so for these reasons we must decline it.

  12. Allow subscriptions to have its shell set to chrooted while also having its cron jobs use a shell other than chrooted

    Allow subscriptions to have its shell set to chrooted while also having its cron jobs use a shell other than chrooted.

    When customer has the ability to set a custom shell for the subscription (https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/server-administration/scheduling-tasks/scheduled-tasks-shell-setting.78064/#o78102) and this shell is set to CHROOT (Subscriptions > example.com > Web Hosting Access) the corresponding Schedule Tasks in the subscription cannot be run under another shell, for example /bin/bash.
    For example the following command will not change the shell for that customer: plesk bin server_pref -u -crontab-secure-shell "/bin/false".
    Checking upon the user will show that the shell is still CHROOT:

  14. Add more options for IP addresses during subscription creation via API

    Right now, subscription can be created via API with specifying the IP-address in the explicit way, e.g.:

    <...>
    <name>example.com</name>
    <ip_address>10.10.10.10</ip_address>
    <...>

    However, there is no possibility to specify "anyfreededicatedipaddress" or "anysharedip_address" options in the API request

    Please, add such opportunity

  20. Features to modify disk partition

    As you have Health Check and indicate how the utilization is but no tools to modify the partition so we do not need to do it via line command (SSH)

    As modification of disk partitions is a complex task, not supported in all environments and can also lead to severe damages, we have no plans to implement such a feature into Plesk. If at all, modifying partitions is a very basic operating system task that can have a strong impact on the availability of the operating system. It also normally requires a reboot of the server. This feature request has also only gotten 2 votes in 5 years. For these reasons we must decline it.
