Add Keyfile Option to Migration Manager
In Migration Manager we need to provide a root user and password so that Plesk can access the source server. But providers like Amazon do not give you a root password by default. It would be great to have an option to upload the key file for the migration. Plesk could save it for future sessions, or offer to delete it after the migration.

Delete mail import settings
If I import mails I enter username and password. These are stored so I can synchronize at any time. But when I wish to delete the credentials, there is no option for it! Username and password are store in clear text somewhere on my provider's server and they cannot be deleted. That is a security failure!

Option to deploy Watchdog extension via CLI with custom monitoring settings
Option to deploy Watchdog extension via CLI with custom monitoring settings
It would be really helpful for a Plesk Administrator the possibility to configure Watchdog extension via CLI with custom monitoring settings. This would save a lot of time and would allow to easy implement a standard monitoring system on a set of Plesk servers.
1 voteYou can configure your monitoring settings in fir /usr/local/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/monitrc in CLI and create your own customized configs as you want. Do not forget restart service with /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modules/watchdog/wd
-restart after that.

FIX: display correct mail server in mail account settings
The mail account settings under 'Home > Domains > (domain) > Email Addresses' display the users own domain as mail server. (when clicking the "i" on the right side)
However, the domain on the certificate of the mailserver is usually different, as this is configured under 'Home > Tools & Settings > SSL/TLS Certificates' and applies to all domains and e-mailaccounts on the Plesk server.This leads to issues when a client accepts the unsafe certificate when setting up his mail client, but this certificate is later changed (as happens more often when using Let's Encrypt certificates).

Unfortunately, we have to close your request because it has not become quite popular for further implementation over the years.

Add support to the WordPress Toolkit for sites with different "WordPress URL" and "Site URL" settings
The WordPress settings has an option for the WordPress URL and the Site URL to be different - i.e. the WordPress site files are in a sub-directory. But sites in this configuration do not work properly in the WordPress Toolkit.
Given this is a core feature of WordPress and one used by a lot of sites, I think support for it in the WordPress Toolkit should be a priority.
Details from WordPress about this option:

To make it possible to manage mysql.log rotation settings
A customer of ours would like to manage mysql.log rotation settings from Plesk GUI. At the moment rotation is OFF as it is by default in mysql package, but with heavy db usage the log file is getting huge. But in order to turn on rotation one need to have some technical skill to edit /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld and uncomment the needed sections there. Not all customers have this still and thus this request.

Allow the migration process to do multiple sessions when migrating to the same destination server
When I migrate from (Server B) to (server A) and the session is running, then I can no longer create a new migration session from (server C) to (server A)
I want to be able to migrate multiple process/session simultaneously so that the data migration process is more efficient.
1 voteWe are closing the request due to low demand. The Plesk migrator allows you to transfer multiple or all accounts during a single session. By default, 10 subscriptions are migrated simultaneously, which is a strategically defined value to lower potential risks on the source and destination servers. Allowing multiple sessions could lead to instability and it is generally not advisable.

Have some setting to limit days and timeframe of any updates
To have some settings to limit any kind of updates to be installed in the server like:
Day of the week, hour timeframe.
There's such settings in panel.ini but only for Plesk updates. I'm missing the same for System Updates and Hotfixes.11 votesCurrently, only major updates can be scheduled as described in https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12377016862103-How-to-manage-date-and-time-for-Plesk-autoupdates- and the forum thread https://talk.plesk.com/threads/update-times.355417/. System package updates and minor updates are not affected.
This feature asks to also provide a setting where sytsem package updates and minor Plesk updates can be scheduled. This is a valid request. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Please add a WordPress migration tool where one can move the hole WordPress installation within a domain to another domain or subdomain,
- on the same Server inside Plesk
- to another Server with Plesk installation
- to another Server with different OS like from Windows IIS to Linux Apache / NGINX (with rewriting the permissions from web.config to .htacces and all other necessary files and the other way round)
Thanks.13 votesWordPress Toolkit v2.0 adds the cloning functionality that allows you to create a copy of your WordPress instance anywhere on the same server.
Also, the latest version of Plesk Migrator enhances the WordPress Toolkit by adding the ability to take over remote WordPress instances, migrating them to your server.
Both extensions are available right now.

Spam settings for the blocklist in Plesk Email Security
Currently, if a sender is added in Plesk > Tools & Settings > Plesk Email Security > Server Settings > Blocklist, their messages are filtered with the same action as spam emails from users that are not in the blocklist.
Please implement a feature, which allows messages from recipients in the blocklist to be completely rejected, even if the Spam action in Plesk > Tools & Settings > Plesk Email Security > Server Settings is set differently.
