Hi Monica,
Go here;
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/domains
- scroll down till you get to " Other Domains "
- enter the domain name you wish to point to WA hosting where it says " Add domain "
- copy the DNS records
- ns1.mywahosting.com
- ns2.mywahosting.com
- login to your Name Cheap Account.
- select the domain that you wish to point to WA.
- select mange.
- select " Name Servers"
- select " Custom DNS " from the drop-down menu, it will say " Name Cheap basic DNS " at the top, just click the arrow
- add the WA name servers, pasting works best ( no mistakes )
- ns1.mywahosting.com
- ns2.mywahosting.com
- update and you should be good to go have a lo at the images let me know how you get on.

Nothing stopping you now.
