Plesk in Restricted Mode

 
about pleskadministrator guideextensionshostinginterface

Restricted Mode (known before as Custom View) limits the number of tools
available to the Plesk administrator in the Plesk interface. For example,
enabling Restricted Mode with the default settings in
Service Provider view hides the Extensions Catalog and many options in Tools & Settings.

If you mostly carry out basic administration tasks,
you can declutter the Plesk interface
and make it more convenient to use
by hiding unused controls.

Enabling Restricted Mode

By default, some Plesk tools are available in Restricted Mode,
while some are not. You can enable Restricted Mode with the default configuration
or choose the tools available when Restricted Mode is enabled.

To enable Restricted Mode with the default configuration:

  1. Go to Tools & Settings > Interface Management (under “Plesk Appearance”).
  2. Select the “Enable Restricted Mode” checkbox and then click OK.

To enable Restricted Mode with the tools of your choice:

  1. Go to Tools & Settings > Restricted Mode Settings (under “Plesk”).
  2. Select or clear checkboxes to show or hide the corresponding tools in Restricted Mode.
  3. When finished, select the “Enable Restricted Mode” checkbox and then click OK.

You will now only see the tools you have selected in the Plesk interface.
To see all tools, disable Restricted Mode
by clearing the “Enable Restricted Mode” checkbox and then clicking OK.

Subscriptions in Restricted Mode

Subscriptions created in Power User view
when Restricted Mode is enabled
inherit the settings (hosting parameters, PHP settings, and others)
specified in Tools & Settings > Restricted Mode Settings.
These settings compose the “Admin Simple” service plan,
which is not displayed in the list of service plans.

When you change settings in Tools & Settings > Restricted Mode Settings,
the changes are automatically applied (if possible) to all subscriptions
based on the “Admin Simple” service plan.
