  1. Add password change to Nextcloud extension

    As explained in this thread:
    https://talk.plesk.com/threads/set-new-admin-password-for-nextcloud-instance.358380/

    Nextcloud autologin from Plesk no longer works once password has been changed in Nextcloud. Password change feature should be added to Nextcloud extension in order to preserve this feature.

  2. Track who changed the Plesk Administrator password

    The idea is to know who and when changed the Plesk admin password. If it's from CLI, what user (usually root), or if it's on GUI, what IP.
    That should be noted in the action log.
    Right now it isn't.

  3. Identify live domains by verifying they're reachable

    I have two servers that basically just mirror my domains. When I need to update the operating system on one of them, I migrate to the other and repoint the IP addresses. Fairly simple, DIY manual failover basically. (BTW, it would be great if this was more automated with regular incremental backups to the failover server.)

    When I'm on the "inactive" failover server (when the domains are pointed at the other server's IP address), there is no indication that the domains are not reachable by the current server's IP address, which leads to confusion when switching between browser tabs to…

  6. Run pre-migration checks only for the domains to be migrated

    Migrating more than one subscription causes a problem. The pre-migration check scans all users and all files on the backup disk, which takes quite a long time with a large number of backups (7TB+). Instead of scanning only the files of the users to be migrated (as when migrating a single subscription).

    When I unmount the backup disk, Plesk doesn't scan it and the migration takes only a few minutes.

  7. Change sender for all mail messages.

    How to configure a fixed Sender Address for all E-Mails?

    To workaround the error: "550 5.7.1 Client does not have permissions to send as this sender" needs the option in the Plesk panel to set header From.
    In case using a user account for SMTP relaying via external Mail server.

    At the moment this is only possible through the manual configuration of canonical maps in the Postfix.

    1. Add to /etc/postfix/main.cf
      sendercanonicalclasses = envelopesender, headersender
      sendercanonicalmaps = regexp:/etc/postfix/sendercanonicalmaps
      smtpheaderchecks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_check

    2. Rewrite the envelope address from the email originating from the…

    Thank you for your interesting idea! While this is a request for a rarely used DNS record, it still makes sense to enable this record type at least for users who want to link their website to a specific geolocation. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

  9. Cross-platform migration from Plesk Windows to Linux

    Cross-platform migration
    Migration from Plesk Windows to Plesk Linux, at least migration of business logic (customers,emails,etc) so the user would not have to create it manually when transferring content using Site Import.
    In cases with a hundred mailboxes, manual creation, and password management can become a daunting task.

  10. Add linting (Prettier/Beautifier) to coding fields for Apache/Nginx header and PHP.ini editor, etc.

    Could you add to the php.ini edit interface a linter like Prettier or Beautifier (I do not mind which, just one of them) to any code boxes within Plesk. The ones I use most regularly are PHP.ini and those below, but I am sure there might be others around the interface, and maybe there is some equivalent for the firewall rules interface too.

    This would just cut the risk of making mistakes there and make the whole thing a whole lot better to use if you want to do stuff 'in the tool' that are relatively minor. Yes, I know…

  11. Ability to set nginx additional directives for the Docker extension of Plesk permanently per domain

    It would be helpful to have a way to set nginx additional directives for the Docker extension of Plesk permanently as a function of Plesk or via the vhost_nginx.conf, instead of having to use custom scripts and cron tasks that would make sure the necessary adjustments are reapplied in a manual way.

  12. Allow setting MAILFROM field in crons from Plesk Interface

    When a customer adds a cronjob within the Plesk interface through "Scheduled tasks", they can set the recipient (MAILTO field) of the cron with the "Send notifications to" field, but there is no option to set the sender (MAILFROM field). By default, the sender for crondaemon is user@server.tld, which in our case causes SPF errors with the receiving mail server of the recipient.

    We do not give our clients CLI access, so they cannot manually set it with the crontab -e command, nor should they (the whole point of the Plesk Interface is for GUI-style ease of use). Could…

    Thank you for your idea and your additional explanation. As the use case is probably an edge case, we'll need to see whether many other users believe that this is an important feature that they need.

    If you believe it is an important feature, please continue voting for this feature request.

  14. S3 Storage with enabled Object Lock

    AWS S3 Storage offers the Object Lock feature, which ensures that a file cannot be deleted within a certain time frame. This is ideal for protecting your Plesk backups from accidental manipulation or attackers.

    However, to use this feature, the PUT request must include the checksum of the uploaded backup file. If this header is omitted, the following error message appears:

    Transport error: Extension transport: ext://s3-backup/server/: Content-MD5 OR x-amz-checksum- HTTP header is required for Put Part requests with Object Lock parameters

    Adding one of the headers described at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/checking-object-integrity.html would solve this problem.

  15. Change on webmail subdomain log in screen to Plesk's log in screen so the user can manage their account directly

    I was considering that to increase the security of the email accounts and so that the user has direct administration over them, if it were possible that instead of the subdomain "webmail.whatevedomain.com" being directed to a webmail login screen directly, to change it to the plesk's log in screen, since when you enable the option in email accounts of "can be used to log in to plesk", the user enters to a management screen for the email account itself, this is by using the email address as the user and their same password.
    This way, the user could change their…

    Thank you for your idea. Unfortunately, the webmail apps are completely independent mail client apps. They are not programmed by the Plesk team, but by independent vendors. The functions that Plesk can control are mail server based functions and user management based functions, e.g. changing the user name (mailbox name) and password. Webmail apps that do the same to it through specific port based method. They behave like all other mail clients. Bringing both worlds into one will mean that Plesk develops and maintains their own webmail software in competition to existing solutions like SoGo, Roundcube, Horde. This would require significant resources not only for development, but also for continuous maintenance - and all that besides maintaining the integration of the other clients. There are no plans to do that at this time or in the near future.

    Nevertheless we can leave this feature idea online for some while so…

  16. Reset DNS record to default value from DNS template

    The ability to reset a specific record to the default value from the DNS template. We are currently only able to reset the whole domain.

    I'm also missing a column in the dns records overview, displaying which records are default and which are customized. We have to guess at this point which ones are altered.

  17. DNS record editor for all domains (bulk editing, selective editing)

    Editor for all DNS records in the Plesk system, it is very time consuming to mass check records and alter them eg. SPF, DMARC, autodiscover records.

    Maybe the editor could also have an option to reset records to DNS template.

    This feature request aims at a skill that a load balance shall have, not what a server connected to a load balancer shall have. Could you please provide more details what exactly you expect a server to provide so that a load balancer can find out that the server is authoritative for a domain? At first sight this would be the IP address that is registered for the domain in DNS. But what method would you want to suggest instead?

  19. Provide the ability to send a copy of mailbox quota notifications to Plesk admin

    When users receive the notification that their mailbox is near full, they often ignore it, or have a concern that it is a fake message. Some customers completely ignore the message because they don't know what to do. If we could provide the ability to also notify the Plesk admin, the customer could be called ahead of time, instead of receiving the "why isn't my mail working?" phone call.
