Use ngrok to optimize web pages on raspberry pi (1)

In the previous introduction, we showed you how to build a complete web page on the Raspberry Pi and use ngrok to publish it to the Internet. At this time, the web page is already a fully functional web page. WeUse this page to store photos or videos and share them with everyone when you need them.But if we want visitors to be interested in our page, or use it for commercial purposes, we need to further polish it.Now, we will show you how to make our web pages more perfect.

I believe that when you surf the Internet, you will often see that some webpages are named addresses of published articles, which allows us to find this webpage more quickly in the vast network, and also deepens the impression of visitors.In fact, it is not complicated to achieve this function, as long as the rewrite function is enabled in wordpress and the corresponding settings can be achieved.

First, we enter the wordpress dashboard page of the Raspberry Pi (enter http://localhost:wp-admin in the Raspberry Pi browser address), click the "Settings" item, and select the "Permalink" page from it., and then click the "Article Name" item.After making your selections, click the "Save Changes" button below to save your settings.

After completing the setting of wordpress, we also need to set the host apache running on the web page, otherwise the web page link will be invalid.Enter the following command in the command line interface of the Raspberry Pi to enable the rewrite module of apache2

sudo a2enmod rewrite

Enter the following command again to set the virtual host (apache) to allow override requests.

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf

After the command is input, the apache setting interface looks like this, and we need to insert a new command at the position marked by the red line (enter after the first line, and open another line to input the command), here we needNote that since the command line is strictly case-sensitive and the symbols are full-width, it is best to copy the commands in the text to avoid situations where they cannot be executed.

instruction is inserted, it looks like this.It is important to pay attention to the space position at the front of the directive.

After entering the command, you can press "ctrl+o" to save and exit.For our new settings to take effect, it is best to enter the command

sudo service apache2 restart

Restart apache once for our new settings to take effect.

After completing the setting of displaying the article name in the webpage address, the webpage address on the Raspberry Pi can be customized, so that our webpage can display its own characteristics (such as displaying the company name, blog name or even the person's name)Wait).Since there are many custom content for web domain names, we will introduce them in detail in the next article.If you have any questions about the use of ngrok, please contact us, and we will certainly provide you with assistance within our ability.Of course, you are also welcome to join ngrok's official VIP group to explore the infinite potential of ngrok together.
