I would like to start a Shopify store using a subdomain of my domain hosted by WA. How can I accomplish this?
Would have been simple enough from NameCheap pointing the C

Thanks for the reply but it doesn't really answer the question i'm asking. I already found that link before posting my question. Here is an excerpt from those instructions:
"If you've purchased your domain through third party, then you need to edit your DNS settings and point your A record to Shopify's IP address, which is 23.227.38.32
Copy, and your CNAME record to point to shops.myshopify.com"
Now, I know how that would have been done with NameCheap where I purchased the domain but I am not using their DNS - I am using Wealthy Affiliates.
So I want to know how I can make those changes at WA.

As it turns out, WA doesn't allow DNS record updates on subdomains.
So if you want to host a shopify store on your domain you will have to host the domain and the entire website at Shopify.

Can I have a page on my website redirect to another URL? Like a landing page?
Or better yet, embed the landing page in a page on my website.
The page wouldn't need
Is there a reason you can't create the landing page on your site?
If it's a landing page for a product or service your promoting, you'd normally create a page to draw visitors to your page with presell material and then send them to the landing page of whatever you're promoting.
Embedding entire pages in a site often looks lousy, so you'd want to be careful about that.
The landing page already exists. Provided by an affiliate and I have an affiliate link which goes to the landing page. Just wanted to tie it to my website.
Ordinarily I could have done a redirect via NameCheap, but I don't have that option since i'm using WA's DNS servers and not NameCheap's.
I started thinking about the options and remembered that we do have ftp access to our sites, which allows us to upload html pages. Would I be able to upload a html page on my site? You could create a page to frame your landing page or do a redirect.
