Plesk backups scheduling by default after plesk installation without any request to change
On any Plesk server 18.0.29 has been installed by default recently (ie fresh install), Plesk has been enabling backups by default to run every night. We can't see any notification of this change of behavior in the release notes. It should be possible to decide to enable backup on initial Plesk installation as this of course uses significant disk space, this has caused us considerable disruption and cost.

WordPress needs to update the database automatically for multisite setup
if you update WordPress in a multisite setup – WordPress needs to update the database. It would be great to have that done automatically.
At the moment WordPress Toolkit does not upgrade network for multisite setup and does not handle post-update actions that may be required by some plugins. Please let me know if you'd like me to open a request at Plesk UserVoice if you want to see that implemented.

Introduce new event parameters when a Wordpress instance is created
Introduce new event parameters passed by Event Handlers that will differentiate full domain and full subdomain name when handling WordPress instance creation.
For example: at the moment, ${NEWDOMAINNAME} variable will hold full name for subdomain when processing WordPress instance creation event and it would be helpful to have ${PARENTDOMAINNAME} variable for such case

Review the location or the behavior of Users tab
Currently, Users are linked to Customers, but the menu to manage Users is located under Subscriptions.
No matter what subscription is selected to view users: in Plesk > Subscriptions > example.com > Users tab all the users of the customer are shown, no matter to what subscription they belong.
Please review the behavior of the Users tab: move it to Customers (Plesk > Customers > John Doe > Users) or show only the users that can manage this subscription under Subscriptions > example.com > Users tab.2 votesThank you for your input.

Ability to clone databases with definers
On the attempt to clone database with DEFINER Plesk failed if there is no the same user on destination database.
Currently, it is required either manually remove definer from database dump or add super priveleges: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360005033014-Unable-to-import-MySQL-dump-using-Import-Dump-feature-in-Plesk-ERROR-1227-42000-at-line-1421-Access-denied-you-need-at-least-one-of-the-SUPER-privilege-s-for-this-operation
Since Mysql version 5.7.8 it is possible to use the --skip-definer option with mysqldump:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysqlpump.htmlThe suggestion is to add ability to clone database skipping definers as option in Plesk GUI

Display server health widget on the home page in Plesk Obsidian
In Plesk Onyx, there was a Server health widget in the home page, but in Obsidian it's no longer available because Advanced Monitoring + Grafana doesn't include this feature.
This missing feature in Obsidian was really helpful because it allowed to understand the server status on a first sight, this widget was showing clearly the status of the CPU, RAM, Disk, Network and Service with representative colors.

add functionality for pre-install checker to check supported components and prohibit installation on case unsupported components are found
It would be great to not have an ability to install Plesk on a system that is using a component (database server, e.x.) that is not supported by the Plesk version.
Please consider implementing the functionality of the pre-install checking of unsupported components. It can prevent issues with Plesk on the servers with unsupported software.
Such an idea has already been provided once, however, it was too specific (for database servers only): https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/20166910-prohibit-installation-on-unsupported-databases.2 votesThank you for your input.

Change the extension order of Plesk multi-volume backups
At the moment the extension order of Plesk multi-volume backups is the following:
<DateFormateHHMMss.zip>
<DateFormateHHMMss.zip1>
<DateFormateHHMMss.zip2>This means that volumes .zip1, .zip2 can not be extracted after their downloading because they have an incorrect zip extension format.
The idea to change the extension order of Plesk multi-volume backups to:
<DateFormateHHMMss>.Zip
<DateFormateHHMMss>1.Zip
<DateFormateHHMMss>2.ZipThat the multi-volume backups have the correct zip format and can be extracted.

Ability to assign dedicated IP to reseller without lock from syncing with service plan
When you add IP address at Tools & Settings > IP addresses the Reseller becomes locked from sync with service plan. This is expected because such resource is not set in service plan.
If you set 1 to "Allocate dedicated IPv$ addresses" option all resellers under this service plan will have dedicated IP assigned.
It is required functionality to assign dedicated IP to reseller without lock from syncing with service plan and in the way that only this reseller has dedicated IP assigned. It can looks like Reseller service plan add-on.

Add an ability to encode parameters sent in custom button URL
Currently, parameters passed to the custom button URL are put there in plain text (even FTP user password).
As the custom button URL is using GET request, the parameters can be easily replaced by anyone which is not secure and doesn't allow using custom buttons for logging customers into a third-party service (e.g. billing).
Please consider implementing an option to securely encode URL parameters so only the receiving side can decode them.2 votesThank you for your input.

Remote control of users or plesk subscriptions.
Hi, I have an idea, and if from a single Plesk installation, you can manage subscriptions from other servers with Plesk. For example, I have installed plesk in panel.mydomain.com, but the host where my client's subscription is in panel.1.mydomain.com, so it would be nice if from panel.mydomain.com the subscription can be managed remotely form. The remote server with plesk. my client would enter plesk from panel.mydomain.com and from there would manage the subscription hosted on panel.1.mywebsite.com, (if it could also be good, multiple plesk servers are configured and when creating a new subscription or client in plesk, the subscription is…

Disable/Enable access to plesk web interface
I want stop plesk web interface without side effects for the services. I only mean the access as client in the browser.
