I have a local WordPress site that I set up using laragon and installed directly under the www folder without putting it into a project folder underneath it. The site worked and everything was ok
Then I attempted to set to Ngrok to create a public URL I could use to work on the site while I'm away. I set up the port forwarding and wp-config.php correctly as stated in here https://ngrok.com/docs/using-ngrok-with/wordpress/ (replaced –url with –domain as it appears –url is no longer a command). This allowed me to load my site from outside my network through the URL (using a static free URL provided by Ngrok). However none of the images would load and referred to their localhost URL
I fixed them referring to their localhost URL by updating the WordPress database wp-options keys directly with the Ngrok URL. The images still do not load despite the links correctly presenting them when inspected
I have been unable to fix the images loading issue, and have found additional issues in that wp-admin cannot load remotely and the site redirects to https://localhost/wp-admin when I try, the Ngrok agent (the terminal) does not show that an attempt to grab the wp-admin folder was made, and I am unable to edit through localhost/wp-admin on the machine itself as it redirects to the Ngrok URL for the admin login page but stripped of all CSS
I have been trying to fix this for 2 days. I am at a loss
