Question How to disable the Whois Information option in Customer panel?

Server operating system version

Redhat Linux 9

Plesk version and microupdate number

Hello,

We want to know how to disable/hide the Whois Information option in Plesk customer panel? We have already disabled the DNS in this server but how to hide this? Refer to the attached.

If there is any way to hide this option, please share the steps.

Awaiting your reply.

Can you share the Plak URL once you click on it? Everything after https://example.com:8443

Hello Raul,

Are you referring to the below screenshot?

Awaiting you reply.

Interesting. That is a Plesk feature, but I can't get the button to show on my install.

Do you have anything in /admin/custom-buttons/list (Plesk > Tools&Settings > Plesk Appearance: Custom Buttons)?

Interesting. That is a Plesk feature, but I can't get the button to show on my install.

According to the docs it's only shown when there is no DNS server running and no external DNS is configured either.

I am not sure about the exact purpose. Feels a bit like a legacy left over.

@Thomas Oryon, I don't think there is a way to disable or hide this in Plesk.

Ah. Indeed. Thank you, @Kaspar. With "BIND DNS server" removed from

plesk installer

the Whois button is displayed.

Without the "BIND DNS server" component installed, you don't have access to

plesk bin subscription_settings --update example.com -manage_dns false

You can install the "BIND DNS server" and deactivate "DNS zone management" in the subscription permissions (for the Plesk user) and in Tools & Settings > Restricted view (for Plesk admin).
