Question ProFTP

Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian 18.0.54
Hello,

why is it not possible to deactivate an added user in proftp? only removing is possible.
Will there be an option to deactivate it later?
 
There is no (native) option to disable/suspend users included in default authentication mechanism (mod_auth_unix), which is used by Plesk for ProFTP. Hence (I would guess that's why) Plesk doesn't supports disable/suspend FTP users.

There actually has been a feature suggestions for disabling FTP users on Plesk's User Voice. But it seems to be closed due to low demand. So I doubt it will ever become a feature in Plesk. But who knows.
