 * Hi Guys,
 * After downloading and installing the Redirection Plugin, I cannot activate it,
   since I get the following message:
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare red_get_post_types() (previously declared in /home/
   public/sites/www.charlotteplansatrip.com/wp-content/plugins/red-shortcodes/functions.
   php:10) in /home/public/sites/www.charlotteplansatrip.com/wp-content/plugins/
   redirection/redirection-settings.php on line 18
 * Can you help me on how to make sure this error doesn’t exist?
 * Kind regards,
    Charlotte

 * It seems there is a function in red-shortcodes that has the same name as one 
   in Redirection. What is red-shortcodes?
