DNS records for use with Github Pages

I have very simple site through Github Pages but I want to use the SquareSpace domain I bought rather than the Github Pages domain.

Following the instructions here: https://docs.github.com/en/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site/managing-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site#configuring-an-apex-domain-and-the-www-subdomain-variant

I setup a total of 9 DNS records:

* 4 "A" records that point from my domain to the Github Pages IP addresses

* 4 "AAAA" records that point from my domain to the Github Pages IPv6 addresses

* A CNAME record that points from my domain to the github username domain: <my-username>.github.io

See screenshot attached. However, these DNS records don't seem to be taking effect. I ran `$ dig <my domain>` and I don't see any of those rules created, and when I try to link the domain in Github pages I get this error: 

> Both www.raleighlittles.games and its alternate name are improperly configured

> Domain's DNS record could not be retrieved. For more information, see documentation (InvalidDNSError).

If anyone has dealt with editing their DNS records please let me know.

Just worked through this recently myself, see if this helps: https://www.mloning.com/posts/configuring-custom-domain-with-github-pages-and-squarespace/
