  1. Composer tool enhancements - add GUI command interface and private repository support

    In my opinion the plesk composer utility needs some of the functionality that the laravel composer tool has:

    1. Ability to run composer commands from the GUI rather than the CLI like the Laravel tool has implemented - if the site/subscription is not a laravel application, you don't have this option. You must use the CLI.

    2. Ability to require private repositories - much like the git utility does for cloning a repository. Currently we have to manually edit the composer.json file then either add the users default key to github as a deploy key or generate individual keys for each…

  2. Allow full backup

    Currently you can only backup configurations and customer files. While I have installed a few Plesk extensions and PHP extensions it is necessary for me to backup the full server. Allow a option to backup/restore full server with all components.

  3. Obsidian Scheduled Tasks update has less functionlity due to cron style Version 18.0.25 Update #2

    Version 18.0.25 Update #2 Windows

    New Cron style schedule tasks. This was such a poorly thought out feature to implement and as such a bad one.

    It's great that Plesk want's to standardise the control panel between platforms but now in the case of Windows servers the experience is worse than before. Previously there were checkboxes that you could tick, so if you wanted a task to execute every 5 minutes then you could just ticket the appropriate boxes.

    Now in attempt to bring cron style to Windows without the / character this has become really laborious having to enter…

    Thank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular. However, the normal procedure for integration of third-party platforms with Plesk are extensions. These should be developed by the vendors who want to integrate their product with Plesk. Many other storage platforms already have developed extensions for Plesk, so Mega could do the same using the free API toolkit: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/extensions-guide/plesk-extensions-basics/how-to-create-and-install-extensions.76094/

  5. Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - features from Linux to Windows

    Please add support for Linux tools (and programming languages, such as Ruby) to Windows through Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and support for PLESK. Of course in the future. This function, in my opinion, is of great importance and gives Plesk a great advantage.

    Windows Server 2016 (1709) supports Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), Semi-Annual Channel.

    Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) will be implemented in all versions of Windows Server 2019.

    I suppose that it would be better to move your hosting to Plesk for Linux if you want to use Linux technologies. Some years ago Apache was supported by Plesk for Windows but it was dropped due to high business cost and insufficient reliability and relevance. Therefore I’m not sure that it is good idea to spread resources to support Linux technologies on Windows servers.

    But anyway, thank you for your input! Maybe 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.

  6. Plesk Fire Wall to upload faster, and allow incremental changes

    Plesk FW when having lots of rules, is SUPER SLOW, because the rules are handled by a bash script, whereas compiled executables which ia a lot faster, is not used. This is asked to be changed.

    Also, please make sure the Fire Wall script does not call a DNS query for the host of each IP, as mentioned here:
    https://serverfault.com/questions/85602/iptables-l-pretty-slow-is-this-normal

    Also, as fail2ban may add a CIDR ip as x.x.x.x/12 within a blink of an eye, I am asking for Plesk to implement such incremental change ability on the Plesk Fire Wall As well

    fail2ban-client -vvv set nginx_errors banip x.x.x.x/12

  7. Better email notifications management through CLI

    Improve the email notifications management through CLI using the "plesk bin notification" command.

    As of now, there are plenty of notifications that can be easily managed in Plesk GUI while it is not possible through that command making it quite hard to manage as the ones that can not be managed through the command itself, need to be modified directly on the Plesk database while in Plesk GUI all (or almost) the notifications are unified under Tools & Settings > Notifications

  8. create Search in Tools & Settings

    When entering the Tools & Settings panel, things are not laid out in an intuitive manner. Some things are under their own or a different header that could probably be combined into headers higher on the page.

    This would be mitigated if the Tools & Settings panel had an intelligent search function that enabled the user to quickly and easily locate the tool or setting they are looking for. Both matching exact strings and intelligently suggesting options that are like the search object.

    This would make like A LOT easier

  9. Allow Resellers to manage Keep websites secured option on domain level

    Implement an option in Plesk that would allow Resellers to manage the Keep websites secured option on domain level via Domains > example.com > SSL/TLS Certificates.

    Currently, only the Plesk administrator can manage this option on the domain level, while Resellers can only enable or disable it via their Service Plans.

  10. Update Roundcube (and keep it updated)

    Currently I am using 'Onyx 17.8.11' which comes with 'Roundcube 1.3.6' (11 Apr 2018). There have already been several updates:

    1.3.7 - 27 Jul 2018
    1.3.8 - 26 Oct 2018
    1.3.9 - 31 Mar 2019

    Which contain bug fixes, security related fixes (not unimportant!) or compatibility with PHP 7.3.

    They are currently on RC1 for version 1.4 which brings tons of new features:

    • New responsive skin with mobile support
    • Email Resent (Bounce) feature
    • Improved Mailvelope integration
    • Support for Redis cache
    • Support for SMTPUTF8

    Since it is not easy to manually install a newer distribution by ourselves, it would be nice…

    Note, that we never support beta, preview or release candidate version of third-party components. In the upcoming Plesk version Roundcube 1.3.8 is supported. We constantly release Plesk updates that include support for new versions of third-party components. Maybe this doesn’t happen as quickly as you would like, but we always do it.

  12. Add global setting for automatic mail.domain.tld certificate assignment

    I'd like to propose a straightforward solution that has proven effective in the industry.

    Introduce a global setting in Plesk:

    [ ] Use mail.domain.tld subdomains for all mail certificates
    ⓘ This setting will automatically assign mail certificates through mail.domain.tld subdomains for all subscriptions.

    Benefits of this approach:

    • Provides a consistent, automated way to handle mail certificates.
    • Solves the automatic renewal issue without requiring manual intervention.
    • Simplifies subscription migration between Plesk servers. Customers won't need to adjust settings, reducing frustration for both clients and administrators.
    • Adapts to current market trends, where clients often host their websites externally (e.g., on Wix) while…

  13. Extensions show which versions of Plesk they currently run on without clicking on them.

    Extensions display which versions of Plesk & OS they currently run on without clicking on them. If the list is shorter, maybe indicate which OS or version of Plesk they don't currently work with. For example if considering jumping to Plesk Obsidian on CentOS 8, from 7.x, it becomes significantly easier to determine if a plugin currently in use is available on the intended platform.

  14. Email Monitoring System

    The Plesk Control Panel, from my point of view, is amazing and using graphics and illustration in great way compared to other control panels. However, the Plesk CP lack an overview of what is going on ?

    Using Outgoing Mail Control, Mail-log extention and Plesk Email Security extension is confusing. You need to track severl locations to see what is going on?

    We need a comperhesive email moniroting system (PLESK CEMS). Using the great graphics of Plesk Email Security extention(statistics) and data from mail log, Outgoing Mail Control, adding ability to search, filter, set email alert based on cirten critera…

    Hi Hakem, we do understand that you would like to have a comprehensive email monitoring system, but this includes many different aspects that cannot be tracked in a single Uservoice feature request. Per feature request only one request can be handled, e.g. "add the ability to send an email alert if ...", "filter the list of emails on page ... by criteria ..." etc.


    For that reason we must decline this combined request.

  15. Ability to add sets to existing WordPress instance via Toolkit

    It would be great to have the ability to add sets to existing WordPress instance via Toolkit. On most occasions when we place an existing WordPress site under management have have a pre defined set of plugins we install. These need to be installed one at a time or via script. A number of developers have also expressed ability to install their own sets to an existing WordPress instance.

  16. 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…

  17. Inbox / Email storage encryption

    Some customers and users find it difficult to trust a mail provider with unencrypted emails, while they are stored on the mail server, even the email account users domain administrator is sometimes not trusted like that.

    Plesk should consider implementing a way for email account owners to option-in on inbox / email storage encryption.

    Encryption per folder, inbox, domain or general over all, with their own key or with a key Plesk have generated.

    Most of the self-build CP hosters and even cPanel hosters do not have this option, and I think this would be a great sales point,…

  18. customize advisor rules

    The advisor should be customizable (ignore rule / change weighting) - many of the suggestions could be obsolete - and some of them seem to me to be advertising rather then advice (especially some points with "big score reward).

    some examples

    • a domain is used in plesk only for email or dns. The a-record points to another system which is secured by ssl - but the advisor tells me it is not ??? It should do a real check - not look into the database. Or marked as "done" or "ignore".

    • my plesk server is shielded by a firewall and…

  19. Support dynamic values for domain local php.ini in subscriptions

    I suggest adding support for dynamic values like %domainname% in the subscription php settings. This allows admins to keep domain subscriptions in sync when needing domain specific php values that can be easily generated by Plesk.

    Why add this to Plesk panel instead of the current domain template files? Domain template files are hard to handle and only work for php values when using php as an apache module. Moving a bunch of these dynamic values into the subscription php management allows administrators to apply values to php as CGI, Fast-CGI, PHP FPM and apache module without loosing sync with…
