Allow CNAME to point to another CNAME
Allow CNAME records to point to another CNAME record. Currently it is not possible to do so in Plesk and shows the error:
Error: Incorrect combination of DNS records is present in the DNS zone.
3 votesCould you please give an example why a CNAME needs to point to another CNAME and cannot point directly to the target? -- PD
-----
A CNAME can point to another CNAME, although this configuration is generally not recommended for performance reasons. When applicable, the CNAME should point as closely as possible to the target name in order to avoid unnecessary performance overheads. But we will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important. — IG

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.

DNS Acl removal via CLI
Meanwhile it's possible to add DNS ACL via CLI:
plesk bin server_dns -u -add-acl 192.0.2.78,192.0.2.0/24There are no native tools in CLI for removing it.
Adding such feature would be great.

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…2 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.

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…

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…1 voteWe will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

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

Set MX priority 100 or customize to any value
Possbility to add MX record with priority 100 but plesk allows only to select priorities from 0 to 50. For example to enable mail server to work properly at the OVH they require the configuration to priority 100
1 voteThe actual value of an MX priority does not influence the behavior of other servers directly. It is more a "sorting" criteria. When OVH asks for "100" in a list of their five MX servers as 1, 5, 50, 100, 200, you can also rearrange that list to values like 1, 5, 10, 15, 20 with 15 representing the 100, because it is in the same order "slot" as their manual suggests. Currently you can configure ten MX entries for the same domain, but in real-world configurations we've never encountered a domain where ten MX entries were needed.
If you know of an example where a provider asks for a fixed value like "100" and does not deliver mail if that value is not present in an MX record, please let us know in your comments.

Share One ***** DNS Server for Multiple Plesk Servers
Current we are not able to do this as all Plesk Severs look for "rndc-key" key value in the ***** DNS Server.
It would be great if we can change this "rndc-key" key value so we can configure the key on the ***** Server as rndc-key-1, rndc-key-2, ...

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.
