  2. Ability to pull Docker container private Docker repository on Docker Hub

    Currently, it is not possible to authenticate on https://hub.docker.com/ to use the container located in private repository.
    The w/a is to make the image public, download it and make it private again.

    The Docker extension now supports launching a Portainer container. Portainer is container management software that makes it easier to manage Docker containers. It allows you to connect to the official Docker Hub repository with authentication and your repositories with and without authentication! We would love to hear your feedback on our forum at https://talk.plesk.com.

  3. Add SRS - Sender Rewriting Scheme to Linux

    SRS is available in Windows on external mail servers, but it isn't available in any mail server in Linux. More and more domains have SPF and more and more mail servers reject e-mails that don't pass SPF check.

    So please add support for SRS in Linux.

  4. Multiple users for the Git extension

    It would be great if it would be possible to create multiple users which can use the Git repository. Today only one user can access the Git repository. It is the admin user which was created during the creation of the subdomain. New created Web Users for the subdomain can not access the Git repository. It is a feature which I am missing because I wanted to host a private Git repository for our small private team.

    Great news! In the Git Extension 2.4.0, published January 26th, 2023, this feature became available: 

    Previously, only the system user had access to all repositories  in a subscription, but now Plesk added the ability to select users who can access a local repository via HTTP/HTTPS.

    You can now select additional users when creating a  local repository or changing the settings of an existing one. These  users can pull and push to a local repository via HTTP/HTTPS using their credentials.

  6. Have an option to deliver email addressed to VERP-style email addresses.

    Postfix already has the option, but it doesn't seem to be supported on Plesk.

    I want to use VERP so I can automatically process bounce messages with a script. I send out bulk email with a return-path like bounces+uid-john=example.com@ourdomain.com and I want the bounces to be delivered to bounces@ourdomain.com

    Postfix has the configuration parameter recipientdelimiter. If I set that in /etc/postfix/main.cf, the server accepts the email and passes it to pleskvirtual. But then it is silently discarded instead of being delivered to the bounces mailbox.

    The only way I see with the current set up to deliver…

  7. Support MySQL 8

    I would like to see support for the upcoming MySQL 8.
    Currently there is no support inside plesk and using a possible workaround with docker isn't possible out of the box.

    MySQL Community Server 8.0.4 is already a Release Candidate.

  8. change password next login

    Ask user to change password at next login screen after reset.
    We the providers could generate a temp password (customer asks for a reset), and after the first login screen, plesk will force ask from the client to change our temp password.

  9. Login Panel from subdomain and not port

    Current Login panel : http://my-domain.com:8880/

    Suggest : http://plesk.my-domain.com/

    I think a secundary access will be fine.

    This functionality is now available in the Plesk Onyx 17.9 Preview 5. We encourage you to check the implementation and let us know what you think. Please visit the following forum thread to learn how to access the preview: https://talk.plesk.com/threads/plesk-onyx-17-9-preview.348675/#post-854032

    Enable the feature: plesk bin admin --enable-access-domain "plesk.example.org"
    Disable the feature: plesk bin admin --disable-access-domain

    To make Plesk easier to use, we would like to ask you to take part in a short user experience test about “Plesk Customization URL”. It should not take you more than a few minutes to participate.

  10. Dovecot

    http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=262887

    I'd like to start a thread for Dovecot support under Plesk 11, since Plesk 10 development is entering maintenance mode and I know there's a lot of people out there who have been asking for Dovecot support for quite a while now.

    Post here if you want Dovecot support in Plesk, or if you have experience with setting up Dovecot with Plesk 11.

  11. Easy removal X-Powered-By HTTP headers

    By default the HTTP header 'x-powered-by: PleskLin' is added to HTTP responses.
    And with PHP, even the version number is included: 'x-powered-by: PHP/7.3.5'

    For security it is better to not give such information, as it may expose you are using outdated software with known vulnerabilities.
    Currently it is possible to remove these headers, but it requires some manual actions using SSH (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000385274)

    My suggestion is to create page to be able to manage such header additions for all websites and services.

  12. Direct or faster access to phpMyAdmin

    Currently it's too difficult to login to the phpMyAdmin interface. Users have to login in on plesk, choose their domain (if they have more than one), go to website & domains, select the databse page, then select the database they want to use and now they can finally open the webadmin. Too much steps! And if the session ran out, you have to do all these steps again.

    The fasted way would be to allow that users can open the phpMyAdmin URL without loggin in to Plesk and only use their credetials for the database. I could understand if that…

  15. WordPress Toolkit: Reseller Plans to use individual sets

    A a reseller I would like to be able to create my own specific plug-in 'sets' for my WordPress customers. Normally this should be done at this level, not by the 'top level' administrator.

    Maybe it is possible to use the same tab and visualize created sets from resellers with an icon.

    Once upon a time we have released sets for resellers in WPT v5.2 a couple of minutes ago.

    We’ve also managed to ensure that resellers can automatically provision WordPress with one of their sets when a new subscription is created.

    Let us know on our forum if you have any feedback.

  17. Support incremental backup for mail content

    Nowadays, many users are using IMAP, maybe because is the default setting in many popular email clients (Mozilla Thunderbird, and I remember Mail on Windows 8.1 didn't support POP3 at all).

    Mail content usually grow but previously stored messages doesn't change often. In Maildir format, used by Plesk, qmail and Postfix, when an user got new mails, new files with unique name are added on disk, and only some files are changed (basically, only courier-imap and dovecot caches and indexes, perhaps easy to rebuild from scratch).

    So, please, support incremental backup for mail content too

    This feature was implemented a very long time ago, but we missed updating the feature request entry accordingly. Please excuse the delay. The reason that it was missed was probably that back then a huge number of users were still using the mbox mail storage format. There it was not possible to get a delta of mails.


    In Plesk Obsidian an incremental backup includes mail data changed since the time of the last backup (full and incremental).

  19. Enable IPv6 by default for a domain when an IPv6 address exists

    When adding a new subscription, the value for IPv6 address is set to "none" even if the server has assigned an IPv6 address (and other domains already use it).

    It's time for Plesk to enable IPv6 by default for new domains, the same way it does for IPv4.
