 * I am currently using 404 redirected plugin. I need to change it as there is a
   conflict with the Thrive Content Editor I have started using.
 * I am looking to change it to this SEO redirection plugin. What do I need to do
   with the existing captured 404 URL’s and redirects in the existing plugin before
   uploading the new plugin?
 * Do I need to uninstall the existing 404 redirect plugin, before uploading and
   activating the new plugin?
 * I’m a bit lost how to change over without making a mess.

 * Yes, of course, uninstall the existing 404 redirected plugin and install SEO 
   redirection.

 * Thanks for your reply Fakhri
 * I’m still a bit unsure – do I need to somehow record all the existing re-directs
   from the current plugin, before I uninstall it, and then set them up again in
   the new SEO redirection plugin once installed?
 * Or is there an easy / auto way to do this?

 * If the current plugin is “All 404 Redirect to Homepage” and you want to move 
   to SEO Redirection, only you have to delete “All 404 Redirect to Homepage” and
   install SEO Redirection, the redirects will work well.
