  1. SSL Certificate changes should be reflected in Action Log

    SSL Certificate changes are currently not logged in Action Log in any way. Such changes should be logged as they are part of hosting settings.
    Yet, they should reflect the certificate details (e.g. "Certificate A was changed to certificate B").

    Although the implemented solution differs from the initial demand, we are closing the request as "already available”. We have thoroughly investigated the idea to solve the redundancy issue using a Plesk cluster. Our research has proved that this solution is not in step with the times, is no longer demanded by our partners, and has its limitations. We would like to give an explanation of each point.

    More than nine years ago, when the request was created, the IT world had already begun to change. Previously, partners and customers bought or rented bare-metal servers and organized them in data centers. If the servers did not have sufficient component redundancy, there was a risk that a power supply or hard drive failure would lead to service downtime. However, a synchronized failover server could save hosting from such problems. But since then, hosting infrastructure has changed significantly. These days, public clouds are…

  5. Nginx restart interval functionality

    An Nginx restart interval should be helpful for situations when users use API calls to modify domain's PHP settings. This results in multiple nginx reloads:

    /var/log/plesk/rc_actions:

    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:26:00 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:26:44 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:26:59 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:28:06 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload
    INFO: [Tue Feb 26 15:29:11 CET 2019]: Service: nginx, Action: try-reload

    A similar functionality exists for apache in Tools & Settings > Apache web server > Restart interval.

  6. Set Dark Mode Cookie with Expiration Date instead of settings as a Session Cookie

    Currently, the Dark Mode option in Plesk sets a session cookie to dark mode, which is reset to default when the browser tab is closed.
    But if this cookie was set with an expiration date instead of a session cookie, this would not be reset after each time the browser tab was closed. This way the user does not have to reset the theme to dark mode with every browser session.

  7. To make Website Preview on the domain name in Plesk using the valis SSL certificate

    Currently, Website Preview on the domain name is using the domain certificate, which raises certificate warnings in web browser.
    For previewed domains, which does not have the certificate defined, the default server certificate is used.
    However, even if the wildcard certificate for the domain name on which websites are previewed is used as a default one, it still does not cover the resulting URLs on which websites are previewed.
    That raises SSL warnings issue for new domains, which redirect to HTTPS according to settings in Plesk or website code itself.

  10. Add a Warning to Plesk Migrator for when there are clients to be migrated with the same name in both the source and the target server.

    E.g.: When migrating data from Server A to Server B, if the name of the client being migrated from Server A is the same as the name of an existing client on Server B, then Plesk Migrator imports such data into the existing client without giving a warning that the name of the client to migrate already exists on Server B.

  13. Add ability to fine-tune Restricted mode in Plesk

    We already have several settings that can be added to the Plesk in Restricted Mode. It can be applied in Tools & Settings > Restricted Mode Settings. But enabling some functionality can enable alongside the unwanted functionality.

    Example: The goal is to enable only "IP Address Banning (Fail2Ban)".
    It can be done by turning on "Server settings" in Tools & Settings > Restricted Mode Settings > Administrative Tools > General. However, this will enable the following functionality as well:
    - IP Address Banning (Fail2Ban)
    - Web Application Firewall (ModSecurity)
    - Restrict Creation of Subzones
    - Prohibited Domain Names…

  14. Add the ability to limit selection of PHP handlers for customers

    We've had a similar suggestion before with insufficient information: https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/34209229-add-php-handlers-restriction-per-service-plan

    The idea is to be able to limit the number of available PHP handlers for selection at domain PHP settings.

    This may be done at Service Plan X > Permissions.

    Example: customer will be able to select only FPM server by Nginx.

    This will allow the ability for more precise configuration.

    Based on the support request.

  15. Set day for full backup on incremental backup.

    Requesting the ability to set a day of a week, or day of the month that the full backup will be ran if using incremental backup.

    reason for request:
    for our setup, we have 15 plesk servers running all of one SAN. we find that on the day of the week the full backup is running, the IO / load on the SAN is much higher. it would be nice to be able to space out those servers by selecting days the full backups are preformed.

  17. Add an option to disable reserved mailnames like root, postmaster, anonymous for domains

    If the option What to do with mail for non-existent users set to Forward to address (also known as catch-all address) in Domains > example.com > Mail Settings, then email messages to mailboxes below are not being delivered to the forwarding email address:

    anonymous@example.com
    mailer-daemon@example.com
    drweb@example.com
    kluser@example.com
    postmaster@example.com
    root@example.com

    Such mailboxes are present in the file /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual.db and mapped to be delivered to @localhost.localdomain:

    /usr/sbin/postmap -s /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual | grep example.com

    anonymous@example.com anonymous@localhost.localdomain
    mailer-daemon@example.com mailer-daemon@localhost.localdomain
    drweb@example.com drweb@localhost.localdomain
    kluser@example.com kluser@localhost.localdomain

    Starting Plesk 18.0.66 we added the ability to stop accepting mail sent to preconfigured aliases such as root, postmaster, or anonymous on Plesk servers using Postfix or qmail as the mail server. By default, such emails are delivered to the Plesk administrator’s mailbox.

    To allow accepting mail sent to one or more specific aliases, add the following lines to the panel.ini file, listing the desired aliases:

    [mail] adminAliases = alias1 alias2 .. aliasN

    Mail sent to aliases that are not listed will no longer be delivered to the Plesk administrator’s mailbox. For example, to allow accepting mail sent to the root and postmaster aliases, but not to any others, add the following:

    [mail] adminAliases = root postmaster

    and then run the following command:

    plesk repair mail -y


    Thank you everyone for your suggestion and help to make Plesk better.

  18. Add disabling DMARC check as per domain setting in Plesk

    It is possible to whitelist domain for DMARC check server-wide:
    https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018052734

    But it will be great to have the possibility to disable DMARC check in settings of a specific domain in Plesk.

  19. Support the migrations on a single server, e.g. to upgrade the operating system

    Support the migrations on a single server, e.g. to upgrade the operating system.
    Not everyone has 2 servers to migrate, many just want to install an image of a new operating system and have their last Plesk (,) back there.
    The migrator would be better suited for this than a backup or release upgrade

  20. Sync between Plesk and MAMP

    Hi,

    I would like to suggest you to create an automatic way or an extension that sync Plesk settings for a domain and a MAMP local website ?
    This manner could increase speed and connectivity between a local and web environment
