5/6 🧵 Ubuntu 26.04 is supported for production use on Linux, with Plesk extensions updated for compatibility.

4/6 🧵 The DNS Troubleshooter is out of beta. A ""Troubleshoot DNS"" link now appears on domains with a suspected issue and opens a readable report in Plesk. Checks were reworked and a domain expiry check added.

3/6 🧵 MCP client connections. Connect an MCP client to your Plesk server through your WebPros Account, authenticating as your linked Plesk user with no Plesk credentials stored on the client side. Disabled by default, enabled in panel.ini.

2/6 🧵 Smarter AI Assistant. Start a new chat without losing the one you were in, reopen past conversations from a history list, and archive the ones you have finished. It also asks a clarifying question when a request is too general.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is now available Flagship: a smarter AI Assistant, now with multiple conversations and a history list. Also in this release: improved MCP support, the DNS Troubleshooter now with a User Interface, Ubuntu 26.04 support. Release notes: bit.ly/Obsidian18081ChangeLo…

5/8 🧵 If you're weighing your options, a few questions tend to help. How many domains are you managing now, and where do you expect to be in 12 months? Do any clients need their own login and billing? How much time goes into manual updates each week?

4/8 🧵 Web Host is built for running a hosting business. Domains are unlimited, and reseller, subscription, and account management come built in rather than pieced together manually.

3/8 🧵 Web Pro is designed for freelancers and studios doing serious client work. Full WP Toolkit brings bulk updates, staging, and security checks together in one place, with room for up to 30 domains.

2/8 🧵 Web Admin is the starting point. Built for solo site owners and small projects, up to 10 domains, without extra tools you may not need yet.

Last month on Sep 9th, the Plesk team touched down in Tokyo for Partner Day Japan together with Blackwall. We walked through this year for Plesk, from AI Assistant improvements to new MCP support, shared what 2025 partner survey told us, and what's coming next. Thank you!

Two deprecation notices in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 are worth planning now Plesk 18.0.81 will be the last release to support it Debian 11 as it reached vendor end of life. Plesk 18.0.82: XML-RPC versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 are planned for removal. 👉🏻 docs.plesk.com/release-notes…

6/7 🧵 Looking Ahead: Security first, making day to day work easier second, and AI that actually helps without getting in the way. That's the direction your feedback points us toward.

5/7 🧵 Beyond Features Pricing transparency and everyday usability mattered just as much as new capabilities. You want predictable pricing and continued refinement of the workflows you rely on daily.

4/7 🧵 Rethinking AI For Hosting You don't want Plesk to just to have AI. You want it to catch issues early, tune performance, helping with troubleshooting without adding more work.

3/7 🧵 What You Want To See Next: A built-in firewall manager and better backup management were the two requests we heard most. With both already on our roadmap.
