Add option to modify the upload_max_filesize and post_max_size Globally via Plesk Admin
Add the option to modify the uploadmaxfilesize and postmaxsize Globally via Plesk Admin > Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings.
The "Maximum message size" is already a Global setting in "Mail Server Settings" and these 2 settings should also be there.
Currently the only way to modify these settings in Linux is via a command line in Terminal and Horde, RoundCube, & Kolab all use different php.ini files for these same settings. I believe it would make for a much more user friendly experience if these options were a Global Setting modified preferably via "Plesk…4 votesThank you for your input!

Change database autogenerated name convention in APS
Installing Wordpress 8or other apps) via APS, the autogenerated database name is something like 'wordpress_N' with N incrementing from 1, that is non-sense and causes great troubles when using Plesk Migrator to migrate a subscription to another server when there are already installed applications.
You may name the database like 'wordpressX' with X random, or include part of the domain name in the database generated name, for example if domain is named testdomain.tld the db name maybe 'testdomainX'.

Better migration of "PHP from OS vendor" parameters
Please consider the following use case:
- testdomain.tld on a CentOS target server is using "PHP from OS vendor" version 5.3;
- The destination server is Ubuntu 14, with newer version of PHP from OS vendor, so you install PHP 5.3 with Plesk Installer;
- The migrated testdomain.tld will have different PHP parameters that may cause disruption of the website.An example: PHP short open tag is enabled by default on PHP from CentOS repository, but is disabled on PHP 5.3 handler installed via Plesk Installer. If a PHP code uses short open tags, the script will stop working. Plesk…
4 votesThe problem may be in that destination server will not be able to use specified version of PHP for the migrated domain because of absence in official OS vendor’s repository. To prevent this kind of problems we see improvement of pre-migration checker which will notify you about possible post-migration issues. After that, the server administrator must solve the problem himself. The automatic resolving of these incompatibilities looks very dangerous.

Change default notification settings for built-in scheduled task on Windows
The following built-in scheduled tasks on Plesk for Windows are set byd default to Notify = Every time. Every clean install of Plesk will send daily two annoying e-mail messages to the administrator. It will be more useful to change that default to Notify = Errors only.
Daily web statistics analyzers run task:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\admin\bin\webstatisticsexecutor.exeDaily script task:

Add a Tag for the notification emails for the Public IP address of a server

don't write in the backup repository during plesk updates
I mounted a remote server via sshfs and set it as the plesk backup repository, so I can backup my domains through sftp (with a keyfile).
But now, whenever I try to upgrade my plesk installation, plesk writes files to my backup repository (i.e. mysql backup before a mysql upgrade) and immediately tries to change the owner of the file, which fails because chown it is not supported on mounted directories.
The best solution would be to provide the option to set a different path for automated backups.

Set right ciphers by default on Windows
There is a documentation how to do it manually: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/plesk-administration/securing-plesk/pci-dss-compliance/tune-plesk-to-meet-pci-dss-on-windows.78901/
but there is no tool to do it automatically (and by default during the installation).

Enable SSL session caching by default in Nginx configuration
SSL session caching is not enabled by default in Plesk's Nginx configuration, leading to the warning “Session resumption (caching): No (IDs assigned but not accepted)” during SSL testing (e.g., SSLLabs test). Without SSL session caching, SSL/TLS handshakes take longer and consume additional resources, impacting performance for returning users.
The following settings are missing in the Nginx SSL configuration file (/etc/nginx/conf.d/ssl.conf):
sslsessioncache shared:SSL:32m;
sslsessiontimeout 1m;Steps to Reproduce:
- Run SSL configuration tests, such as with SSLLabs, and observe the “Session resumption” section.
- Note the warning “Session resumption (caching): No (IDs assigned but not accepted)”, indicating the lack…

Autoresponder "From" Email Addresses
It is commonplace nowadays to see something like this when we receive email.
"Accounts From My Organisation" accounts@myorganisation.com .
It looks far more professional and more aesthetically pleasing than the utilitarian "accounts@myorganisation.com" which is the only option currently available in the Plesk Obsidian autoresponder functionality.
It would be a nice feature - and fairly simple, I imagine - to add a field to the autoresponder functionality to allow us to enter a "pretty" name which would be what the email recipient would see in their inbox. Alternatively, of course, the existing field could be amended to allow for…

URL-based branding logos
I suggest enabling Plesk to allow different branding logos in the login screen and the top left corner of the session, depending on the full-qualified hostname used to reach the server. For example, if a server can be reached through 2 different names, the idea would be to be able to set a default branding logo and have alternative ones depending on the URL used to connect to the server. Here's an example:
plesk.domain1.com -> main logo (default)
plesk.domain2.net -> alternative logo 1
hosting.domain3.co -> alternative logo 2
any other aliases/URLs -> main logo (default)3 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

Usage of "Quick Preview" DNS should be made more clear.
The fact that Plesk must be the DNS server for the "Quick Preview on a domain in Plesk" option should be underlined and more prominent in the interface. The necessity of a Wildcard SSL cert should be clearer too. That would help your clients and avoid some tickets to Plesk support.

Improve the Backup Manager for when it freezes or aborts when using S3/Scaleway
Plesk should have a native mechanism to detect when a backup job is stuck; helping to manage backups more efficiently without relying on manual intervention.
Plesk should allow backups to automatically resume from the point where they fail, rather than starting from the beginning; saving time and resources, especially for large backups.

Custom color wheel for private branding
Currently, Plesk provides only two options for branding customization, which can be limiting for users managing multiple internal companies with distinct branding needs. I propose the addition of a custom color wheel for private branding in Plesk.
This feature would allow administrators to choose from a broader range of colors, offering more flexibility in aligning the Plesk interface with specific company branding. For users handling multiple companies, this customization option would be a significant improvement, making it easier to differentiate between brands.

Add warnings for unsupported operating systems in the Dashboard
Many Plesk users continue to run outdated operating systems, which often results in non-functional repositories, failed updates, or even security risks. While the current Dashboard displays "Server Information," including the OS version, it lacks any warnings about the support status of the operating system.
I propose adding the following to the Dashboard:
- Display an orange warning when the OS has 6 months or less of support remaining.
- Display a red warning when the OS is end-of-life and no longer receives updates.
These warnings should include links to support articles explaining the risks and offering steps to update or migrate the…

Feature Suggestion for Plesk WordPress Toolkit: Notification Control per Subscription
I would like to propose an enhancement to the Plesk WordPress Toolkit to address an issue with email notifications sent to end users. Currently, the toolkit sends nightly email alerts regarding available updates for WordPress plugins, themes, and the WordPress version. However, there is no option for server administrators to disable these notifications on a per-subscription basis.
This lack of granularity means that administrators cannot tailor the notification settings according to individual user preferences, which may lead to annoyance for end users receiving notifications they do not wish to see.
I propose extending the WordPress Toolkit to allow end users…
