• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Changelog

Basic Pleskian
I'm going to bring this up again, because it is not only important, but imperative that administrators' know exactly what has changed in a Plesk release.

I just installed Plesk 8.2 fresh install yesterday, and at the end of the day there was an update available.

Trying to find out what changed from the morning to the afternoon is nearly impossible.

Upon looking at what packages it downloaded I found:

psa-hotfix3 8.2.0 rhel4.build82070807.17i586
psa-locale-base-en-US 8.2.0 rhel4.build82070807.17noarch
psa-qmail 1.03 rhel4.build82070807.17i586
psa-selinux 8.2.0 rhel4.build82070807.17noarch
psa-updates 8.2.0 rhel4.build82070807.17noarch

Fair enough, but:

1. Okay, but what does this hotfix3 actually fix.

2. What changed in the language files.

3. What changed in the qmail configuration.

4. Did it fix the problems I was previously experiencing with selinux.

5. What is psa-updates, how much more generic can you get.

The changelog in the Downloads section used to be useful, now it's full of advertising half-wit BSYT speak instead of useful information.

Instead of calling that a changelog, how about calling that changelog-overview, and keeping the changelog as a real changelog.

Best Regards,
~Matt Simpson
