Migrating several servers to one without changing registrar parameters
The intention is that every reseller will get a separate basic IP (default) and optional additional IPs that he can use for special purposes.
All of these IPs shall be different from the server IP.
As a result: can we expect that the SSH access by IP is limited to the given reseller package so that he cannot see other reseller packages that exist in parallel and he never should see things you normally see if you are Admin of the total server.
Example:
server has IP 86.86.86.86, hostname xcs2.example.com, root access only for us as a provider. We have ALL rights.
Reseller reseller1 has IP 86.86.86.56 as a default, the hostname alias is reseller1.example.com, dns of domains with this reseller are on 86.86.86.56 as default and the primary nameserver is reseller1.example.com, the secondary nameserver is one we give like ns2.example.com. The reseller "reseller1" has root access but can only see something that looks like a server but only with his domains. No other things. (can he reboot the whole server?)
Reseller reseller2 has IP 86.86.86.57 as a default, hostname alias is i-net-hosting.example.com, DNS of domains with this reseller are on 86.86.86.57 as default and primary nameserver is i-net-hosting.example.com, the secondary nameserver is one we give like ns2.example.com. The reseller "i-net-example" has root access but can only see something that looks like a server but only with his domains. No other things. (can he reboot the whole server?)Bottom line: the business cases you are looking for are
migration of two (or more) servers to one new server without changing all DNS and doing changes with the registries.
Structured level of reseller configuration on a server with multiple resellers. I.e., dedicated IP pool and hostname per reseller.The intention is that every reseller will get a separate basic IP (default) and optional additional IPs that he can use for special purposes.

The headline does not match the content. The content is asking for features that already exist (e.g. chrooted SSH access). It also sounds as if it asks for something that is technically impossible for a panel (KVM virtualization, separate, caged virtual servers that can be rebooted --> task of a virtualization environment, not a control panel). We are sorry, but this feature request cannot be accepted as it is right now. Please
- match headline and content
- request only one feature per request

Editable Admin interface colours
Add the simple ability to change the colour of the background of the left column in the Plesk admin interface. I have two identical plesk accounts. One for testing, one for live. If the admin nav columns were two distinctly different colours, I wouldn't need to keep looking at the URL.

DNS record editor for all domains (bulk editing, selective editing)
Editor for all DNS records in the Plesk system, it is very time consuming to mass check records and alter them eg. SPF, DMARC, autodiscover records.
Maybe the editor could also have an option to reset records to DNS template.

Ability to disable "Forgot your password" in Plesk log in screen
There are cases when the account information has been leaked, so password reminders and login functions can cause security breaches.
Therefore, it would be good to have the possibility to manage log-in screen functionality in Plesk. For example, hide "Forgot your password" (and show it when it is required).4 votes -
Installation of TYPO3 and Toolkit similar to WP Toolkit
Our customers wish to install TYPO3 websites after buying an abonnement through WHMCS or the Plesk panel and have a toolkit where they can manage their TYPO3 installations from a panel like WP Toolkit. I searched through all feature suggestions but I didn't find a suggestion. You should be able:
- to rollout TYPO3 installations
- to manage all your TYPO3 installation
- to update your TYPO3 installation
- to stage/test their TYPO3 installation
- to remove your TYPO3 installation
- to reinstall your TYPO3 installation4 votesThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Force port 587 for submission

"Send welcome mail" by button so that admin can send login credentials to a new user by email template
As discussed in https://talk.plesk.com/threads/send-email-with-credentials-to-my-customer.369632/#post-927240 Plesk should have a button for server admins by which an admin can send a welcome mail to a user with the user's login credentials. That should be template-based with an editable template to cater for the requirements of different server providers.
It should also not be sent directly, but similar to the existing "mass mailing" function first show the proposed text in an editor window so that the admin can make additions or edit the text. Then send from there.

Allow the creation of forbidden domain names via API
Please implement an option in Plesk, which allows the administrator to create domain names, which are forbidden for creation via Plesk UI.
For example, *.example.com has been added in Plesk > Tools & Settings > Prohibited Domain Names. This limitation should apply to all users in Plesk UI, but the administrator should still be able to create *.example.com subdomains via API calls.
This will be useful when looking to automatically provide users with a free subdomain for hosting, but prevent them from creating unlimited number of *.example.com subdomain via Plesk UI.

Set LVE to "unlimited" for users created temporarily on Migration to speed up Migration on CloudLinux
The CloudLinux employs several techniques to limit performance, among others "LVE" limits. These are limits on resource usage such as CPU speed, RAM, I/O speed, number of processes, etc.. It is an established fact that the Plesk Migrator is capable of modifying CloudLinux components to allow the Migrator to do it's job, like disabling CageFS for the source user and target server. So, it stands to reason that the Plesk Migrator could also modify these LVE limits to improve performance of the data-transfers to the target server. The I/O limit of 1 MB/s is an LVE default limit for users that are not assigned to a Service Plan. Our suggestion is that the Plesk Migrator sets the LVE to "unlimited" for all users that are created specifically and temporarily for the migrator to do it's job. This can be done via a CLI command: lvectl set-user <username> --unlimited We suspect that the Plesk Migrator has knowledge of which temporary username(s) are created, so it would be an easy job to set the LVE limits for that newly created temporary user to unlimited.
This would greatly increase speed of the transfers.

Add option to choose default IP address in Support SSH Access extension
The SSH service may be configured to listen on a specific IP address for security purposes. The Support SSH Access extension does not account for this and may return IP addresses that are not listening on the SSH service.
An option should be added to set a default IP address, or manually set a specific one, for cases in which the configuration won't allow connections over any other.
Otherwise, the "Copy credentials" button is not useful, as the address has to be entered manually every time, and may cause confusion with users unaware of the configuration.

Git LFS support in Plesk
As time has gone on, we have introduced a git LFS server to store our images on.
However, whenever pulling to the server it does not pull the actual images, only the pointer files.
A Git LFS extension for Plesk would be helpful.

Would be great to be able to archive sites.
1 - Create a backup of files and database in the default (cloud) backup storage.
2 - Remove files and database from the hosting.
3 - Change the site status to Archived but keep on the site list.
4 - Allow to easily restore from the cloud backup when needed.

Export filtered results from Log Browser into a file
It would be nice to be able to download a large number of logs from the Log browser. Currently, there are only two options:
- See logs in Log Browser and apply filters
- Download the whole log file via File manager.
What is required is to download filtered results from Log Browser.

Migration/conversion tool from Mailman 2 to 3
If a lot of Mailman maillists (hundreds on each server) are used on server with Mailman 2, it'd be great to have a tool for migrating/converting them to Mailman 3 (when it becomes supported in Plesk) on migrating/dist-upgrading to a new OS where Mailman 2 isn't available.
