Manage Windows Firewall Rules via Plesk CLI utilities
While firewall settings can be adjusted via the Plesk GUI, users who prefer automation and scripting are forced to use Windows PowerShell instead of Plesk’s built-in CLI.
Currently, there is no direct way to:
Add, modify, or remove Windows Firewall rules via Plesk CLI.
Disable or change default firewall rules, unlike in the GUI.3 votesThank you for your suggestion! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

Order custom buttons
It would be great to be able to customize the order of buttons shown in the right sidebar from Plesk GUI. (see attached image: default-order.png)
For example, let's say to move the last button to the first position, so the customer will notice about it. (see attached image: custom-order.png)
We are setting different custom buttons in Plesk for our customers and we want to set this custom order to call the attention of the end-user over the default Plesk buttons.

Ability to sync Outgoing mail control limits
Currently, it is possible to sync Outgoing mail control limits only if "Ability to change mail settings" permission" is disabled on service plans.
But if this permission disabled customers cannot disable or enable the email service for their domains. This is needed by customers, because they have sometimes external mailserver like Office365

Add a detailed status message for restoring specific domains via Backup Manager
Restoring a backup in Tools & Settings > Backup Manager always results in a generic message:
Restoration of the backup <timestamp> completed
But this message remains the same both after restoring a full server backup or just some specific domains, which can be confusing.
If only specific domains have been restored, please add a separate message listing these domains.

Separate rotation for backups hosted in clouds
When on Plesk server there is not much space, and on clouds (like Amazon S3), there is a lot - the separate rotation for backups would be useful: to set on Plesk to rotate frequently, and in the cloud - far more rarely.

Introduce notification threshold on disk space usage
Customers exceed the allocated disk space. A notification is sent. But customers don't want this notification when they exceed the allocation, but BEFORE they exceed it so that they can react to a warning in a timely manner and won't face overuse charges.
Why is this a problem? Some users don't check their email regularly. They feel pressured to pay an overuse fee if they are not allowed "enough" time to react to an overuse situation.
Proposed feature: A notification threshold for disk space usage should be introduced to service plans in GB or percentage or a general threshold expressed…

Add SMIMEA Record in DNS
Add the SMIMEA record in the DNS-system.
This is required for encrypted email communication.There is no need to set up an automatic system, just the option to create an individual record.
The 63-character restriction must be removed, otherwise the hash of the address is too long and will be rejected.

Force certain group of users only (administrators or customers) to use 2FA, not all users.
Currently, when setting up 2FA, it is possible to enforce all users on server (administrators and customers) to use 2FA. The idea is to enforce the administrators to use 2FA, not customers or enforce customers instead.

Add a predefined group called "Anonymous visitors to this web site"
I'm new to Plesk. In File Manager, I was trying to give full Read/Download permissions for a nested set of folders within my web site, to any anonymous visitor. It is not clear how to do this. I had to make a support call. Save yourself some time by adding relevant hints or help to the File Manager / Permissions page.

Content Security Policy (CSP) Guide for a WordPress site in Plesk
I have started adding SHA header for the more than 100 scripts and styles on the home page.
May I ask if you could provide a Plesk recommended way to set CSP for a WordPress website, possibly with a nonce generator, and a functions.php planting of nonce addition to all current scripts and styles.
