Phong,
As your enquiry relates to a specific WP plugin and its functionality
(and not Wikkawiki) - the 1st thing I would do is register on the
relevant forum and post your question their. URL for forums for
Redirection and other plugins by the same author is:
http://urbangiraffe.com/support/
The forums re pretty active and I also subscribe so will see your
question once its posted their. Others (including the author) might also
assist with your questions.
Note that the plugin itself has a reasonably steep learning curve and it
would pay to read (and re-read) the notes and instructions as supplied
by the author at this URL:
http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/redirection/
Regards,
Robert
