• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

How do I disable File Manager and FTP?

We are trying to use Plesk panel and Plesk billing as a way to provision SAAS. Because we are installing everything for the customer, we'd like to be able to disable File Manager. We can easily shut down FTP access by simply not sending the password in the welcome email, but the File Manager is still available.

Ideally, we'd like it so after the customer purchases hosting, all they can do through plesk is manage emails and see stats. However, the "Owner" user type can't be edited, and the Client can't be demoted to another type.
 
I think off the File Manager with FTP control should be an essential option. Some customers should not access the web content for security or by hiding the code.
