Allow to postpone changes to DNS zone
Sometimes it is not convenient to reload all zones on every change, so it would be helpful to have an option to apply changes either immediately, or at a designated time.

Add SMIMEA Record in DNS
Add the SMIMEA record in the DNS-system.
This is required for encrypted email communication.There is no need to set up an automatic system, just the option to create an individual record.
The 63-character restriction must be removed, otherwise the hash of the address is too long and will be rejected.

Cloudflare records exclusions
A very cool feature would be to exclude individual records in the zone from sync / export to Cloudflare and the choice by auto-update to only update / create records without removing whole Cloudflare zone.
In my particular scenario I am serving mts-sts. via Cloudflare worker. Everytime Plesk update DNS zone on Cloudflare the particular mta-sts. record is deleted. This record can not be created in Plesk, because it is a worker trigger.

restrict to edit SOA records for subscription, but allow to manage DNS records
It requires either limit user's ability to change the DNS zone timers (TTL, refresh, expiry...) or to limit them to a preset minimum, while still being able to edit the domain's records.

Hidden Primary DNS without NS RR
in Plesk it is impossible to configure the SOA Primary Nameserver without a NS RR.
The SOA template should support Hidden Primary NameServer and the Zone file generation should always use the Hidden Primary NameServer in the Domain SOA entry.
Example:
@ IN SOA ns1.hidden-primary.tld ...
...
domain.tld. IN NS ns1.secondary.tld.
domain.tld. IN NS ns2.secondary.tld.2 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

Add method to REST API to manage domain default DNS zone settings (for DNS TTL management)
Currently when using the REST API to get the DNS records of a domain, no TTL values are returned for records unless their TTL values have been changed by the user manually. That's because (by default) DNS records inherit their TTL values from the default DNS zone settings of a domain. However these default DNS zone settings cannot be viewed or managed by the Rest API. Meaning that the default TTL values for DNS records can be viewed using the REST API.
Resulting in a deficiency for users who want to use the REST API to properly manage DNS records.

Customize MSDNS additional settings directly from Plesk.
Since on Windows Server Bind is going to be dropped, it would be good to customize DNS Settings from MSDNS directly from Plesk.

DNS record editor for all domains (bulk editing, selective editing)
Editor for all DNS records in the Plesk system, it is very time consuming to mass check records and alter them eg. SPF, DMARC, autodiscover records.
Maybe the editor could also have an option to reset records to DNS template.

Reset DNS record to default value from DNS template
The ability to reset a specific record to the default value from the DNS template. We are currently only able to reset the whole domain.
I'm also missing a column in the dns records overview, displaying which records are default and which are customized. We have to guess at this point which ones are altered.

Allow DKIM/DMARC/SPF records for the server's hostname domain
This thing that Plesk does not present DKIM public key, referred to server's hostname, is quite annoying. cPanel does, for example.
And I'm not going to mess things up with changing hostname, so to match it with a newly created domain (whose purpose would be just having a DKIM in place).27 votesThank you for your input!

Add support for djbdns / tinydns
Add support for djbdns / tinydns - export each domain's DNS records into a plain text file that gets then copied to separate (stand-alone) DNS server(s) running djbdns / tinydns. The DNS services do not and should not run on Plesk servers themselves, but rather on separate stand-alone servers. Export each domain's DNS zone into domain.com.txt filename.
The text file synchronization can be done either automatically by Plesk, or a simple cron job to automate replication to 2+ djbdns servers, where the files are added, or if a domain.com.txt exists, overwrite it and comile/publish djbdns data.

In the "Domain DNS settings" section, you need to add the ability to temporarily disable records.
Good afternoon. In the "Domain DNS settings" section, you need to add the ability to temporarily disable records.
There is a general list of all records, there is also a checkbox with which you can select the desired lines. By selecting rows through the checkbox, we can only delete in bulk.
Please add the ability to temporarily disable the necessary records during the mass selection of rows through the checkbox. Well, maybe they would just be highlighted somehow or vice versa would be gray, which would mean that they are disabled. Also, if you select these disabled, you could re-enable…2 votesWe will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

Do not automatically delete non-Plesk Route 53 records
When making any update to a DNS zone, all records that were not created/synched with Plesk are automatically deleted. This prevents users from using advanced Route 53 functionality, such as aliases (for CDN, load balancer, etc). Because Plesk does not support AWS aliases (which is fair enough), this specific functionality MUST be configured directly in Route 53. That would only be a minor inconvenience, if Plesk didn't actively delete any record not synched with Plesk on any unrelated DNS update. This means Plesk-managed domains can't really use any advanced AWS functionality or Plesk will take the site offline.
If Plesk…3 votesThank 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.

if DNSSEC was signed before DNS is disabled, it should be re-signed with the same keys when DNS is re-enabled.
it should be standard practice to check whether or not the DNSSEC is signed before disabling DNS so that DNSSEC can be re-signed after re-enabling DNS.
A better option would be for Plesk Panel to automatically recognize if DNSSEC was signed before DNS is disabled and then re-signing with the same keys when DNS is re-enabled. If this isn't a possibility, the next best thing would be, if DNSSEC is signed, to provide a warning to the user in the form of a confirmation prompt saying something to the effect that "doing this will unsign DNSSEC and you will need…5 votesThank you for your input!
