Allow multiple Docker hosts (local and remote), ability to specify host per container.
The Docker extension only allows you to "one service at a time" (ie, localhost, or a remote).
It would be nice if when I provision a Docker container that I could choose to provision it on localhost (for speed, security) or remotely (for containers that don't need to run on the shared host and/or consume significant resources).
For example, I almost always want to provision Redis locally for speed, but if someone wanted something like MS SQL Server 2017 (4GB RAM minimum), I'd probably want to put it on a dedicated Docker remote with a high memory configuration (extreme example…

Make default Plesk Firewall rules more strict
Right now "System policy for outgoing traffic" rule is set to allow all outgoing traffic as default which is not secure enough.
Please consider to make default firewall rules for outgoing traffic more secure and allow only Plesk services to send outgoing packets

Change default notification setting for task 'secur-check'
I suggest to change the default notification setting for cron task '/opt/psa/libexec/modules/watchdog/cp/secur-check' because now it is set to "Every time" but is useless to get the following output at every run:

Offer proper sftp support through mysecureshell
It would be nice if Plesk by default installed sftp server software (such as http://mysecureshell.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ ) that allows granting the user sftp access to his home directory only, without having to grant the user full SSH shell access.
Right now Plesk seems to be promoting FTPS as alternative for securely transfering files, but that simply does not work properly when the end-user has a firewall or NAT setup. Or when you have iptables rules on the server.
This is caused by that FTPS uses multiple TCP ports like normal FTP.
However because the control connection traffic is encrypted, firewall software…5 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Upgrade PostgreSQL
PostageSQL provides some powerful function to process non-relational data (eg: "jsonb") after version 9.4.
Would you please upgrade that?
Thanks.5 votesIf you mean PostgreSQL, we support 9.4 version in the current 12.5 version – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/12.5/software-requirements/#s4-2-1 and upcoming Plesk Onyx – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/17.0/software-requirements/#s4-2-1
We will officially support next versions if many people will support your request. But I think that you can try to use 9.5 version right now. It should work, but we have not tested it yet.

Make default Plesk-page editable from GUI
I would like to be able to update that site from the plesk host panel, I have no idea how to do it now!
5 votesWe will consider an option to edit the default page directly from within Plesk GUI in upcoming releases if it will be popular.
Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.
For the time being you can already edit the default page that is located in /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs on the system level.

Add backup restore (sw-tar) multithreading
Plesk uses its internal sw-tar program for unpacking backups, which currently lacks multithreading support. This results in a significantly slower recovery process when handling a large number of files or large data volumes.
Given the continuously growing data volumes and increasing file sizes, it is time to implement this feature.

FTP Bandwidth Control in Plesk
Introduce a feature within Plesk to allow administrators to limit and manage FTP bandwidth usage on a per-domain or server-wide basis. This feature would enable precise control over the data transfer rates for FTP services, improving resource allocation and network traffic management. By offering bandwidth throttling, server administrators can prevent excessive FTP usage from affecting other services, enhancing overall server performance and customer satisfaction.

Display MySQL/MariaDB versions with warnings for unsupported versions in the Dashboard
Many users run unsupported versions of MySQL or MariaDB, leading to issues such as failed updates or database errors. Since Plesk only supports LTS versions of MySQL/MariaDB, it's important to make this clear to administrators.
I propose adding the following improvements to the Dashboard:
- Display the installed MySQL/MariaDB version directly on the Dashboard.
- Include warnings for unsupported MySQL/MariaDB versions, with a color-coded alert system similar to the OS warnings.
These warnings should also link to support articles that explain the importance of running supported database versions and provide instructions for updating to a supported version.
By implementing this, administrators can…

Permission to manage hosting type
Add an additional permission that manages the ability to manage vhost type only (website, forwarding, no hosting). Currently this is bundled with "Domains management" permission, which if unchecked, will also not allow the creation of new domains.

Support for HTTP/2 on apache (without using nginx as proxy)
Hi,
It seems some Plesk users would like to have support for HTTP/2 on apache directly (without using nginx as a proxy).
We do not clearly understand cases when it is required. Why using nginx as a proxy in front of the Apache is not an option? Could you please let us know how this feature should work in terms of workflow, in your opinion? We welcome any feedback and would be happy to receive examples to investigate the question in more detail.4 votesThank you for your idea. Could you tell us which scenarios you want to enable with this functionality?

Provide migration licenses 24/7, not only on workdays
Often times migrations are done on weekends. I'd like to be able to get a migration license as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12388069544215-How-to-get-Plesk-Web-Host-edition-trial-license-for-migration at any time. The current workflow where this can only be requested and handled on weekdays during business hours can block my own workflow, e.g. when I have and emergency and absolutely must migrate.
