  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. A differential report to compare the DNS template to all or multiple domains on a server

    A differential report to compare the DNS template to all or multiple domains on a server to see only items that are "differences" or exceptions to the template, not every DNS entry for a domain.

  4. 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.

    Thank you for your interesting idea! While this is a request for a rarely used DNS record, it still makes sense to enable this record type at least for users who want to link their website to a specific geolocation. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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…

  10. cli command to delete/modify record from dns template

    There is no way to delete/modify record in dns template with cli: plesk bin server_dns. For image automation scripts, it requires to have delete and modify command to manage dns records in template.

  11. 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)

  12. Automatically enable a DNS zone for newly created subdomains on both the Plesk side and in the DigitalOcean DNS extension

  13. Allow users to create subdomains for whitelisted superzones

    Currently you can only disable creating of subdomains for all superzones.

    An exclude list to allow some superzones would be nice.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. 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.

  18. 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.

    (we've been using djbdns…

  20. 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
