Plesk Importer

Beta Feature

The Plesk import tool is currently in BETA. While thoroughly tested, you may encounter unusual behavior. Please report any issues to support@LxRoot.com.

  • Domains: Sub and alias domains (converted to mapped domains).
  • Data: All files and databases.
  • Email: Mailboxes (with passwords/data) and forwarders.
  • Config: PHP version, FTP accounts, and SSL certificates.
  • Automation: Scheduled tasks (Cron) and SPF records.

Not Supported

  • PostgreSQL databases.
  • Wildcard subdomains & Catch-all emails.
  • Autoresponders, Calendars, and Contacts.
  • Mailman settings & Directory privacy.
  • Existing statistics & Custom error pages.

Importing a Plesk backup

Conflict Check

If any domains you are importing already exist in your LxRoot account, you must delete them to proceed with the import.

  1. Select Website importer in the left sidebar.
  2. Click New import and select Plesk.
  3. Follow the onscreen instructions to generate a compatible Plesk backup.

    Note: The backup must be a full backup and not password protected.

  4. Click Next step and use Choose file to upload the backup from your desktop.
  5. Select Next step again to process the file.
  6. Review any conflicts highlighted in the red modal.
  7. Select Import now to finish.
