title: Can I add an A record for Shopify while redirecting particular urls?
body: <p>I need to add an A record to my domain to point to Shopify.</p>
  
  <p>Shopify lets you redirect URLs, but not for certain paths (e.g. '/cart').</p>
  
  <p>I need to redirect my old urls containing this path ('cart') for SEO.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way, using DNS records, to set the A record for Shopify while redirecting certain urls? Note: I can't use .htaccess</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24540168/creating-an-exception-when-pointing-a-domain-using-a-record-shopify">This question</a> is similar, however, none of the answers are relevant because (a) I need to redirect using an excluded path, and (b)I can't use .htaccess once the A record is in place, as the request will not be sent to my server, but Shopifys.</p>
