 * Good morning,
 * I’ve changed a function in a php file of a pluggin and it’s work, but i have 
   to do all change in Genesis Extender Custom (GEC).
 * I wrote the changed function on GEC and put the original in the php file of the
   pluggin.
 * When I go to a page that use this function tell me:
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare function1() (previously declared in /home2/laieta/
   public_html/***/wp-content/uploads/genesis-extender/plugin/custom-functions.php:
   31) in /home2/laieta/public_html/***/wp-content/plugins/***/includes/views/file.
   php on line 285
 * I supouse I have to remove the original function or rename it but i cant edit
   the original file (I have to change all in GEC). It’s that possible?
 * Thanks in advance.
