    DNS is edited on the page

    https://my.bluehost.com/hosting/app/#/domains/manage/YOURDOMAIN.TLD/DNS

    But I had some duplicate DNS entry, that was not listed on the DNS page. Talking to support told me to edit DNS at

    https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/dm/zoneedit?domain=YOURDOMAIN.TLD

    That showed the duplicate DNS entry.
