Make mass selection for files and folders
When I need to select several files or folders I have to select them one by one. Could you add a feature to select several files by holding Shift button, for example?

Now it the button must be hit manually in the admin panel, that defies the automatic part a bit :)

Show overusing mailboxes if subscriber cannot be changed due to insufficient resources warning
When attempting to change subscriber for a subscription under a reseller, the following warning is returned:
Unable to continue subscription transfer: this subscription requires more resources than can be provided by the new owner's provider. However, the mailboxes exceeding the limit are not specified.It is impossible to see which mailboxes exceed limits, especially if there are hundreds of domains on the reseller.
The suggestion is to include affected mailboxes into the warning, or at least to provide a [GUI] tool to find such mailboxes among all subscriptions under the affected reseller.

To remove the HTML body of nginx 301 302 redirects
When Nginx returns a 301 or a 302 redirect, it also returns a small useless HTML body.
<html>
<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx</center>
</body>
</html>You can see this body when you perform a "curl talk.plesk.com" for instance. However today, many major domains don't return a HTML body, it is the case of facebook.com, twitter.com, youtube.com and www.plesk.com .
Funny enough, when i do a "curl www.plesk.com" it returns no html body. It means that someone at plesk remove this html body. But in plesk onyx it will always return the default html body that I have mentionned before. However, talk.plesk.com still returns the nginx html body.It helps to save a bit of bytes for those who have a lot of redirects.
From a SEO point of view, I had an issue related to the HTML body of 301 nginx redirect. Google saw it as a crawl anomaly and soft 404. It means that google thought that the HTML body returned by nginx was a real document (sic) and thought that my server was not properly configured.
So to achieve this, I already did it locally, in nginx additional directives for my http to https.
errorpage 301 302 @30x;
location @30x {
defaulttype ""; #will remove Content-Type completely
return 300; #300is a filler: client will get the original HTTP status code
}if ($sslprotocol = "") {
rewrite ^ https://$servername$request_uri? permanent;
}I guess it is possible to do it in server.conf.
Today, all bots and browsers rely on the HTTP header field "Location" only to find the destination URL of a 301 or a 302. This is what happens when a bot hits www.plesk.com which does not return a HTML BODY in a 301 redirect.
example:
jojo@DESKTOP-IRG1A6S:~$ curl http://www.plesk.com/ -I
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Date: Fri, 02 Oct 2020 07:26:35 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
Cache-Control: max-age=3600
Expires: Fri, 02 Oct 2020 08:26:35 GMT
Location: https://www.plesk.com/
cf-request-id: 0589cdb1650000085f85953200000001
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Server: cloudflare

Better Database Server Assignment / Visibility
Currently you only have the option to do nothing and "SHOW ALL" database servers or restrict to a single database server per subscription by using the permissions tab. This means each user that falls under this criteria need a custom service plan.
We would like to display more than a single database server for clients that choose to pay extra for an additional database server that only they can use. Some projects grow and they need an additional database server - or in some cases they need to migrate data between the old database server (sometimes local to plesk server) and their new database server - themselves.
It would be useful to assign database servers to subscriptions/domains as needed for resource management.

Extend the possibility to manage Client permissions via CLI
Currently, in Plesk it is possible to manage general permissions for customers via Plesk Panel or CLI. Sometimes it is necessary to manage Client permissions in more precise way in command line.
Please add the feature to hide/show separate menus via CLI, e.g. enable/disable such menus separately:
-Web Hosting Access
-SSL/TLS certificates
-Limit Outgoing Messages
Also, it would be useful to restrict access to edit separate paragraphs such as:
-Hosting Settings> Certificate
-Hosting Settings>Web statistics (Protect access to your web statistics with your FTP username and password)3 votesThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Changing Mailbox Sizes Permission
I'm looking to do what many other web hosts do which is to sell off mailbox space.
I don't want to increase everyone's mailbox size yet, this seems to be the only way.
There is a permission that I can remove from most people to stop them editing their mailbox size. But the Owner / Customer that I'm selling to will still have access to set their own limits (up to the max limit)
I want to be able to offer mailboxes at 2gb, 5gb, 10gb etc. But not allow all of the customers mailboxes up to that level.
If I'm being dumb and there is an easy way to do this i'm sorry in advanced. But I've not found it and it's feels like a feature that should be added at this point.
what I'm specifically asking for is a permission that stops all users apart from me as a "reseller" to be able to amend the mailbox sizes.
Thanks.

emails : [Alerting] Load average
when sending alerts about high load of server, i think it would be a Good idea to receive some kind of snapshot of processes list, maybe not the full list but at least first 10 or 20 heavier processes
In the meantime you receive email and go to panel to see what is happening. things goes back to normal

XML-API: Enable Secret Key for Resellers (and Customers)
Currently, Secret Keys are only available to system admins:
https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/api-rpc/about-xml-api/reference/managing-secret-keys.37121/It would be great that also resellers (and potentially customers) could create such a key to not have to store user credentials on a server.
(What was the rational to prevent this?)
