Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/opensolutions/ViMbAdmin/issues/148

Description

The links in the README.md and the footer templates for 'Latest News' and 'Keep up with ViMbAdmin' lead to a non-existing WordPress page on Barry O'Donovan's homepage.

The actual link http://www.opensolutions.ie/blog/category/vimbadmin/ ends up at http://www.barryodonovan.com/category/vimbadmin/

Steps

On ViMbAdmin page, click the 'Keep up with ViMbAdmin' link on the bottom left.

Result

Shows some WordPress page with

Not Found
Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help.

Expected Result

Should probably go to somewhere on http://www.vimbadmin.net/ (note: the 'News' link on the official page also points to the same non-existing target).

Personal note: I absolutely love ViMbAdmin. Thank you very much for your awesome work! 👏
For some reason, this was only like the 4th or 5th solution I found googling, after postfixadmin, posty et al. which all were all nowhere as easy to setup and use as ViMbAdmin.

Thanks, all fixed.

I killed the Open Solutions blog last week as maintaining two was difficult at best! Appropriate redirects now in place.
