I would like to point to Wix from GoDaddy. 

On GoDaddy, the Nameservers are set to:

NS53.DOMAINCONTROL.COM
NS54.DOMAINCONTROL.COM

Nameservers are set to "I have a hosting account with these domains."

Then, on GoDaddy, I created 3 A Records under the DNS settings

A @ 216.185.152.150
A m 216.185.152.150
A www 216.185.152.150

This meant, I had to remove www @ from CNAMES, which was suggested in the video, since the CNAME www @ does the same thing as A www 216.185.152.150

I went to Wix, and then Manage Premium Domains.

I clicked on "Already have a domain?"

I entered my domain name, which is registered with GoDaddy.

I clicked on "I want to connect by pointing (not recommended)"

I checked the box for "I know what I am doing. Connect my domain using the pointing method."

I pressed the "Next" button.

This is where I knew something was wrong, because it didn’t show me a preview of which WIX site I wanted to point the domain name too. It should have looked like this:

(The only way I could get this picture, is after it was already set-up, by, again, clicking on “Already have a domain?”)

It took me to Connecting your own domain.

Where did you purchase your domain? GoDaddy Domain.

I watched the video, and of course, I had already added all that information to GoDaddy, as I mentioned earlier. 

I pressed the "Done" Button

It took me to Domain Summery

This is where I have a problem.  You see, it didn't actually point to Wix.  It moved all the DNS stuff to Wix.  My DNS records are on Wix

After I press the "Done" button, I saw Managed by DNS, and not named by Pointing to.  It should say Pointing to, but, instead, it says DNS.  I've tried this a dozen times, always with the same results. 

What am I doing wrong?  I need to use Pointing to, so I can manage my subdomains with Godaddy, instead of Wix.  I need my nameserver to stay on Godaddy, and I need my DNS to stay on GoDaddy.  I just want to point to Wix.  Shouldn't it say Pointing, instead of DNS?

(This image is from http://www.wix.com/support/main/html5/domains-email/setting-domain-other-hosts-ie-networksolutions-godaddy-etc/connecting-your-domain-1#weight-2 Notice under Managed by it says Pointing. I want mine to say Pointing, not DNS.)

The weird thing is, the website works.  I'm not even sure why the website works considering its not pointing to, and Godaddy is not using the Wix nameservers.  I guess, its working, as if it were pointing to.

It, still, won’t let me use GoDaddy's subdomains either.  On GoDadddy, I set-up Forward Subdomains.  What should I do differently?
