 * The redirect function should have a more unique name so it doesn’t cause conflicts.
   All plugins should make sure all of their functions names are unique, so I posted
   this on another plugin that uses the same function name (Dooodl).
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare redirect() in /wp-content/plugins/adminer/inc/adminer/
   include/functions.inc.php on line 512

 * Unique function is not so easy. This plugin use a project, this works outside
   from WordPress and include only the functionality. If I like to change to namespace
   then is the effort to big.
