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:

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).

Add AssumeRole (AWS) like fuctionality in Plesk's Amazon extensions
AWS has an AssumeRole, which is a temporary security credentials: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/STS/latest/APIReference/API_AssumeRole.html#API_AssumeRole_RequestParameters
For security reasons, it is considered a better option than the IAM user method, so it would be great to see this functionality added in Plesk's Amazon Route 53 and Amazon S3 backup extensions.

Support client-side file chunking in Plesk File Manager to bypass Cloudflare 100MB limit
When Cloudflare Proxy is enabled (Free/Pro plans), it imposes a hard 100MB limit on file uploads via POST requests.
Plesk File Manager does not support client-side chunked uploads, so large files cannot be uploaded when Cloudflare is active.
Adding chunked upload support would allow users to upload large files safely even when behind Cloudflare protection, and improve reliability for all users working with large assets like videos or backups.See: https://developers.cloudflare.com/cache/concepts/default-cache-behavior/#upload-limits

Prevent Postfix from modifying "From" Header for authenticated users.to mail address that doesn't belong to them
An authenticated SMTP user (e.g., user1@example.com) is able to send emails with a different "Mail From" address (such as user2@example.com), even though both addresses belong to the same domain. This behavior is undesired, as it allows users to impersonate other valid users within the domain.
Our goal is to prevent this kind of spoofing by enforcing a match between the authenticated SMTP identity and the actual sender address.

Option to disable image optimization in Sitejet galleries
Currently, Sitejet galleries apply automatic image optimization including resizing and cropping. While this works well for most use cases, it introduces issues for specific workflows where image quality is critical — for example, high-resolution photography or imported images that were already optimized.
We suggest adding a checkbox to disable image optimization per gallery image, similar to how the “Optimized” toggle is being considered for regular image elements. This would allow developers and designers more control over the final output.3 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

Digital Ocean DNS extension Moving domains to default DO Project
At the moment, any domains created in plesk and sync'd to Digital Ocean get put into the default project/container. There is no way to specify the destination project.
If you then go into Digital Ocean and move the domain to the correct project/container and then go back to plesk and make any dns change and click update, it resyncs to Digital Ocean and moves it back to the default project/container.
This means that Digital Ocean DNS extension for Plesk currently does not support the usage of a project different from Default in DigitalOcean. that makes organizing things harder and it…

Integrate SmarterMail features directly into Plesk
Consider the possibility of integrating certain SmarterMail administration features directly into the Plesk interface.
For example, allow users to manage spam filters and safe senders from Plesk, without needing to access SmarterMail.3 votes -
Add Full Two-Way Synchronization with SmarterMail
When a user with administrator permissions creates an email account directly in SmarterMail, it is not synchronized with Plesk.
As a result, the account is not displayed in the Plesk interface, which creates confusion and makes centralized management difficult.Ensure that any email account created or modified in SmarterMail is automatically synchronized with Plesk, and vice versa.
This would ensure consistent management and avoid discrepancies between both platforms.3 votes
