  1. Add management of restriction of administrative access to CLI

    I would like to be able to restrict admin access to certain IPs using CLI. Now it is possible only via plesk db utility which is not that useful.

  4. Plesk billing solution for customer and reseller, e.g. like WHMCS

    I know that there is WHMCS billing solution but it is not intuitive and need lot of task to make it work.
    Please could you reflect including a Ready To Go billing solution, just by installing an extension, it could be a GREAT release !

  5. Backup via SSHFS

    We have huge amounts of Backup Data (currently around 450gb per file). The whole process using FTP takes around ~ 13 hours to complete. Trying to restore something is a big bottleneck for us. Restoring from FTP is ****, and we searched for alternatives.

    We decided to give SSHFS a try by mounting /var/lib/psa/dumps to the remote Server and disconfigured the FTP Settings. The result is annoying. The Backup now takes around 2,5 hours, the Plesk Backend is really fast now and local space is not consumed anymore!

    So i suggest you to give SSHFS a try. It is like…

  8. Add a warning before application installation

    Actualy to instal an application, the user just clik on "install" bouton in application list.

    • No warning
    • No options

    Plesk directly install the application in httpdocs....

    Good but if user already got a website in httpdocs... this website is définityvely break.

    So i suggest to a a warning or installation options when user clik on install button

  9. Implement DNS Whitelists

    Plesk does not currently support DNS Whitelists like it does RBLs, such as the list at dnswl.org. There needs to be a way to add this from the Plesk UI.
    The Postfix main.cf config directive is permitdnswlclient.
    Whenever a Plesk upgrade happens, the setting, if added is removed and needs to be added back manually.

  10. For security reasons: Turn off outputting PHP Version and also Webserver Version

    PHP configuration:
    Add the following Lines for Security Reasons!

    exposephp = off
    server
    tokens off

    Why didn't Plesk decide to make these lines available as options in Plesk, as options?
    In my opinion, no one cares which version I use when it comes to port scanning / Showdan.io. Especially with Showdan.io, you can filter computers that are vulnerable in seconds, e.g. find web servers or PHP versions that are problematic.

    I ask for options in the GUI for ON / OFF, although someone at Plesk should first explain to me why these version numbers of vo, web server Nginx…

  11. Provide a File Manager for admin so that all files and directories of a server can be edited, including these outside subscriptions

    For those Plesk admins who unfamiliar with Linux CLI would be convenient to have an access to the Files and Directories via File Explorer. To be able to execute simple administrative tasks without learning CLI commands

  12. WordPress Toolkit support for Bedrock-powered WordPress instances

    Bedrock is a modern WordPress stack that implements several improvements related to WordPress setups.

    Better folder structure
    Dependency management with Composer
    Easy WordPress configuration with environment specific files
    Environment variables with Dotenv
    Autoloader for mu-plugins (use regular plugins as mu-plugins)
    Enhanced security (separated web root and secure passwords with wp-password-bcrypt)

    More information on Bedrock can be found here: https://roots.io/bedrock/

    Plesk's WordPress Toolkit cannot currently handle Bedrock-powered WordPress instances.

    Because some of Bedrock improvements are considered to be current best practices and provide safer setups, it would be nice to see support for Bedrock-powered instances in WordPress Toolkit.

  13. Add "Are you sure?" question for disabling DNS zone management.

    It happend allready twice to me that i accedently disabled a dns zone because i misclicked the button. Every time it takes about 3+ hours until all dns servers are sync again if this error happens so it would be nice if plesk asks you: "Are you sure?" with a simple yes and cancle button.

  14. Add IgnoreHosts options to Plesk`s DMARC implementation

    Currently it is possible to whitelist only domain with IgnoreMailFrom parameter. However there could be false-positive DMARC failures (in case sender's strict policy and mail going throughout relay) due to which it could be useful to have option to whitelist specific network. It would be nice having this option available

    During research, we have found that the request is about passing emails via intermediate mail gateway (which works as an anti-spam solution) and the idea of the request is do not check SPF for these emails on Plesk side.

    In Plesk, there is already exist a solution for that: need to use "SPF Local rules" setting to configure an SPF record which will be used by Plesk to validate emails (including emails from an intermediate anti-spam solution). See KB article for mode details (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022753174) and Plesk documentation.

    If it does not solve the issue on you Plesk environment and you still need the "IgnoreHost" option, let us know more details about you case for that in comments below.

  15. Awstate update to supports Geoip registration

    As AWstat is still core part of Plesk, will it be good to have a solution out-of-the-box that is able to geolocalize the hits isn't it ?

  16. git extension: option to delete branches

    Git extension: option to delete branches that are not more in the remote repository (or everything and with the next pull get only the ones from remote).

    Here are some possible solutions, I assume:
    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7726949/remove-tracking-branches-no-longer-on-remote

    After some time there are so many branches on the dropdown that it really gets annoying to search for the desired one and removing and adding the repository does not really feel right.

    Here is a command, in case someone finds this idea before it was implemented:

    https://talk.plesk.com/threads/git-extension-doesnt-remove-deleted-branches.351838/#post-861524

    (not sure if there is already a feature request open for this)

  18. Add ability to manage NAT rules by Plesk Firewall.

    Native Linux tool iptable has the ability to add custom NAT rules, however when Plesk Firewall is used these rules are flushed, so it is not possible to use Plesk Firewall + NAT rules by iptables.

    Due to this adding possibility to manage NAT rules via Plesk Firewall would be a great extension, making configuration manageable via Plesk graphical interface.

  20. Add support for IPv6 to ka.plesk.com, hense Plesk licenses can be activate using IPv6

    So far ka.plesk.com does not have IPv6, therefore servers with Plesk that have only IPv6 addresses cannot activate their license.
