Integrating with paid ngrok

Hello,

If we have a paid Ngrok account, is there a way to connect LocalbyFlyWheel to it so the live links are always same?

Hey Harish,

There has been other questions like yours…
It was answered with a little walkthrough in this one:

It was also mentioned here: Ngrok.io - possible to link account? - Support - Local Community
And as a feature request: Ngrok.io link to registered accounts - Feature requests - Local Community

A quick search for “ngrok” returned these results in this forum, I would gracefully advise to search a bit before posting haha but don’t worry.
Hope it helps!

I created a solution here.

I’d say that the best solution would be to just:

  1. Edit wp-config.php and add following lines to make relative links when accessing your WP site:
    define('WP_SITEURL', '[http://](http:)' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
    define('WP_HOME', '[http://](http:)' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
  1. Run ngrok which rewrites your nginx router requests. (Replace site.local with your local domain)
    ngrok http -host-header=rewrite site.local:80

Enjoy the easy way!

I want to access my Local site from other machines on my LAN, to tinker with the site under construction. I don’t need to access it from anywhere else, and no one else needs to see it.

Can I run some sort of server directly on my Local host that will handle connections only on my little, private network?
