What are you trying to achieve:
Most of my websites are on Wix. I had one remaining domain on GoDaddy. That domain had a simple forward to a url for a store I have on Threadless. It just worked. This week, I finally migrated that domain’s DNS from GoDaddy to Wix, bought a Premium Site to be able to do 301 re-directs, and now am finding no straight-forward option to do the same forwarding I could easily do on GoDaddy. I can’t use pointing because the store platform doesn’t allow it. It’s kinda screwing up my ability to send people to my store! Should I have NOT migrated from GoDaddy? I just assumed Wix would have this ability.
What have you already tried:
I attempted a 301 redirect through the SEO Redirect manager, however it seems I can’t redirect from the Premium Site Home page to an external url? (See screenshot). In the Site editor, I switched the Home page to a different page, but that didn’t change anything. It’s still not letting me redirect my domain to the store url. Why is a forward/redirect so difficult? Any simple solutions? Thanks peeps!
