Lock DNS records | Disable Reset to default
We have the "dmarc"- record in our template having a placeholder for the value. At the time the Record "dmarc" was edited by adding the value, mostly every DNS record is no more in the state of the DNS template.
Therefore it is important to have some policies:
- The button "Reset to default" can be disabled on Admin and Reseller level.
- The button "Master/*****" can be disabled. Usually this functionality is not needed.
- For certain very important DNS setting, a "Lock" button might make sense. If applied, this record can not be edited anymore by…3 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Automatic renewal of wildcard certificates when using Route 53
When renewing a (Let's Encrypt) wildcard-certificate, we first need to go the page for SSL of the specific domain, copy the new code, go to the DNS-page, update the records, go back to the certificate page and click renew. This seems like a lot of manual steps for something that can easily be automated.
I understand this has already been implemented for people who do not use the Route 53 plugin (or other DNS plugins), but since any change in Plesk DNS will automatically propagate to Route 53 with those plugins, I guess this can be fairly easily implemented, saving…

Add custom dns recursion settings via Plesk GUI or CLI and avoid overwriting by Plesk
Going to Tools & Settings > DNS Template > DNS Recursion Settings, it's not possible to set a custom list of IPs or hostnames, it's only possible to choose between different options: any host, localnets, localhost.
As a workaround to this limitation, i'ts required to customize the options section in the /etc/named.conf file, but it gets overwritten by Plesk.
Please, add the possibility to customize the dns recursion settings via Plesk GUI and to keep the custom allow-recursive set in /etc/named.conf file.

Please add the ability to Plesk installer check if bind9 configuration was customized
Please add the ability to Plesk installer check if bind9 configuration was customized
At the moment we have a feature that Plesk pre-upgrade checker shows warnings if custom templates are configured in /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/custom/
Add the same ability but to check if bind9 configuration files are customized at least /etc/default/bind9 file
For example, if the mentioned file was customized after upgrade configuration of the bind9 can be corrupted and service could not be started which lead to the downtime of the websites

Introduce DNS records multi-column sort.
When required to add a few NS records, it's easy to make typos as DNS records can be sorted by a record type but not sorted by value.
The following sorting is proposed:
1. User Sorts by Value, then the order is: Value (ASC or DESC), Type (ASC), Host (ASC)
2. User Sorts by Type, then the order is: Type (ASC or DESC), Host (ASC), Value (ASC)
3. User Sorts by Host, then the order is: Host (ASC or DESC), Type (ASC), Value (ASC)1 voteThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Be honest about whether DNS records in Plesk are actually applied
The DNS records in Plesk pretend as though they're actually being applied to the domain, but this is FALSE. The nameservers of my domain are not set to my domain's name. You need to compare the actual nameserver records and to the ones in the Plesk settings before acting like you're the name server for my domain.
Case in Point: https://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/123260/the-plesks-name-server-acts-as-the-primary-name-server-for-the-dns-zone-what
