Question How to edit the Custom URL Plesk login page?

[hotdog]

Server operating system version

Debian 12

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.6.2 #1

I enabled custom domain for Plesk login ("One specified domain or subdomain that resolves to the server IP address but is not used for hosting.Browsing this domain or subdomain will open the Plesk login page.")

It all works fine, but I don't like that when you go to the custom domain, it shows a "Web Server's Default Page" and on it a "Log in to Plesk" button.

I would like it to go immediately to the Login form when you enter the custom domain.

Can this be achieved somehow?

Hello, if I understand you right you need a customized Plesk URL https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12377745012247-How-to-customize-Plesk-URL

That's not suppose to happen. Has the domain as been added as an domain in Plesk?

No, it's not been added anywhere in Plesk except for the Customize Plesk URL setting in Tools & Settings.

I will contact Plesk tech support and report here what they find

Before Plesk tech support had even the chance to look at the ticket, I figured out that the issue only happens when I try to visit the custom url with http:// instead of https://

With https:// it goes immediately to log in screen.

You would think the http:// should redirect to the https://? But I don't see a setting for that in the Custom Plesk URL settings.

Gosh the EDIT function on Talk Plesk is slightly restrictive. I wish it was longer than 4 minutes (I could have edited my post instead of making another). My suggestion would be 60 minutes, but maybe you have a reason why it's so short.

Anyway, Plesk tech support replied and said that it should by default redirect the http to https, but they are now investigating why it does not.

Very impressed by the speed of Plesk support!

OK, so the support agent found this article:

https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12376969767063-Why-there-is-no-redirect-from-http-to-https-to-access-Plesk-login-page

Which means that the lack of http -> https redirection is expected behavior.

However, a workaround is to put the following code in /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs/.htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
Header always set Content-Security-Policy "upgrade-insecure-requests;"
