Email password update from API
Iwould like to update email's password from API, so that I can implement this feature in my website to maintain my email users to reset password or force them to change their password over certain period of time.
1 voteChanging passwords through API request is considered as very dangerous from security point of view operation. Therefore this feature will not be implemented mostly for security reasons.

View Azure DNS nameservers under customers
Currently, only Plesk admin can see nameservers by clicking the 'Zone NS records' button. It is necessary to implement this feature under Domains > example.com > Azure DNS, too, so the customers can see zone NS records, as well.

Ability to set a Subscription or Domain Backup Default
I'd love the ability to set a subscription such that a Scheduled Backup configuration is enabled by default? E.g. "backup all files, daily, store 1 day"?
Often times I realized after the fact that a domain backup was not turned on. The "scheduled backup list" extension is nice, but I'm looking more for a default option.

Add folders disk space on File manager and it's subfolders
It would be fine to know how much disk space taks a folder and it's subfolders inside the file manager panel.
This way we could see easily wich folder takes more space in order to make a clean and other managements.
Sometimes we are in a hurry to clean disk space with no idea of wich folder has been increased so i think it has sense.1 voteThank you for your input!
Unfortunately, we have to close your request, because over the years it has not become quite popular for further implementation.

ability to toggle WordPress REST API endpoints
I've recently discovered that by default, WordPress exposes a REST API endpoint at /wp-json/wp/v2/users which can be exploited to enumerate users. While I have found a workaround by creating a custom rewrite rule in IIS to block access to this endpoint, I believe this should be a built-in feature of the WP Toolkit.
I propose that Plesk add an option within the WP Toolkit to easily enable or disable access to specific REST API endpoints, such as /wp-json/wp/v2/users. This would provide an additional layer of security for WordPress sites and make it easier for administrators to protect their websites.

Improve RapidSSL order and reissue for many domains
Hello,
Please implement a more efficient way to order and reissue RapidSSL certificates for many domains at one.
It should be possible to order, reissue and install RapidSSL certificates for multiple domains at once without need to provide payment information over and over again.
Payment information should be stored by Plesk on to automate payment process.Reissuing certificates should happen automatically and it should be possible to unsubscribe domains from future reissuing of the certificate.

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.

Integrate fullbackup.php into Plesk UI
I am posting this here because the dedicated KB page for the script fullbackup.php (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213949545-Plesk-Server-Backup-Script) refers to a forum page that no longer exists (https://talk.plesk.com/threads/plesk-server-backup-script.247563/)
Plesk server-wide backups run into space & memory problems, so you developed the fullbackup.php utility.
Fullbackup.php just works, but being an "external" tool, its configuration (--per-domain etc), execution and output (the generated backup) are not recognized by Plesk UI.
You can have a 10-GB successful server-wide backup in the /dumps directory, generated by fullbackup.php: Plesk will ignore it and tell you that there are no backups.
I suggest that fullbackup.php…
1 voteThis fullbackup.php script was developed many years ago for old Plesk versions where this script was really actual.
Since then, the backup manager has been very seriously redesigned and the best solutions from this old script have been included.
You can use pleskbackup utility with server option as alternative of this old script https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/cli-linux/using-command-line-utilities/pleskbackup-backing-up-content-and-configuration.74260/
Thank you for your suggestion, but the functionality of this old script will not be integrated into Plesk Ui.

SSH Terminal access with another administrative user
The root user is disabled on the server for security reasons.
It is required to configure SSH Terminal extensions to log in with another administrative user9 votesWe assume that this request is based on a typical configuration where "permitrootlogin" in the SSH configuration file is set to "false" and the requirement is to being able to use the SSH extension for Plesk admin accounts anyway. For that case the workround can be applied: Simply add the lines
Match Address 127.0.0.1
PermitRootLogin yesto the /etc/ssh/sshd_config, then reload SSH service once (# service sshd reload). It will then still not be possible to login with "root" from external sources, but it will allow the extension to log you in with an admin account. https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4410634559250

Add to Plesk possibility of installing certificates from ACME-compliant services other than Let's Encrypt
In Plesk, there is a Let's Encrypt which is an ACME-compliant vendor of certificates. It would be good to have another one or the possibility to implement other ACME-compliant certificates via Plesk tools. For example JPRS: https://jprs.jp/pubcert/about/ACME/index.html

In this Free SSL era, customers should be able to install SSL certificates with API, for automation (like cPanel)
Two issues I am facing with Plesk API for SSL certificate:
- The end user (customer) should have permission to manage SSL/TLS Certificates with API: The customer can install an SSL certificate with the GUI but not with API. My shared hosting provider has hidden the Let's Encrypt SSL option. I can install a LE SSL with the GUI. But manually renewing the SSL certificate every two months is a time-consuming task and if I forget to renew, the SSL will expire. If Plesk allows the end user (customer) to install SSL certificates with the API, I can easily automate the…
