Since version 10.4, Plesk hides from customers those hosting features
that are not provided in their subscription. The visibility of GUI
elements responsible for a certain feature is determined by permissions
and resource limits of a subscription. Note that when you (as the
administrator) log in to the customer’s Customer Panel, you see GUI
elements regardless of customer’s permissions. The table below explains
GUI visibility logic.
Visible to a Customer | Visible to the Administrator | |
---|---|---|
Resource Limit > 0 Permission = True |
Yes | Yes |
Resource Limit > 0 Permission = False |
No | Yes |
Resource Limit = 0 Permission = True |
No | No |
Resource Limit = 0 Permission = False |
No | No |
For example, when the number of Domains in a subscription is 10 and
the Domains management permission is off, a customer does not see
the Add Domain button in the Customer Panel. Nevertheless, this
button is available to the administrator that logs in to the customer’s
Customer Panel.
Resources Without Numerical Limits
If the resource type is logical or in other words, it can be just
switched on or off (such as scripting language support), its visibility
is controlled by a certain permission only. For example, if the
Hosting settings management permission is granted, a customer is
able to toggle the support of various scripting languages for their
site. If the permission is not granted, the customer sees the list of
languages that are switched on for their site in the read only mode. The
disabled languages are not shown in the list.
