Cannot get ngrok to serve up my WordPress site
I have a simple wordpress install using Mamp Free Version on OS/X.

For some reason when I try the links generated by ngrok, the website loads forever, then I get
Page not available.
Answer
As @Magico stated, download from the repo https://github.com/jonathanbardo/WP-Ngrok-Local and place that in your plugins directory, activate the plugin.
Then, after you get your ngrok tunnel URL up & running, take that URL and place it in your wp-config.php as follows:
define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://example.ngrok.io/' );
define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://example.ngrok.io/' );
Now you will be able to access the homepage as well as the admin dashboard.
