Quickly expose a local server online with ngrok

  • Download ngrok
  • Create an account and enter your authtoken
     ./ngrok authtoken
  • Then execute:
    ./ngrok http -host-header=your-local-site.dev 80
  • In the screen that follows, ngrok will show the new publicly accessible address of your site
  • Finally, you’ll probably need to run the following command with wp-cli in order to replace your local links with the new ones:
    wp search replace old-url new-url
