I am working on a Wordpress blog. I have successfully able setup with wampserver and it working fine on localhost.
My problem is I can't able to access server over LAN to test on mobile. I tried lots of tricks port inbound in firewall, disabling firewall and configuring in wampserver httpd.conf. but no luck.
Can anyone help me out?
Is there any other better server you recommend?
I am also looking for a good editor for wordpress php file and scripting things.

Which OS you use ? For Mac, sublime text 2 will be fine for php.

I never tried anything over LAN, so I have no idea how that works. I always deploy on my VPS.

Why don't you get a free hosting account temporarily & try ? instead of breaking your head over WAMP 😛 I suggest you x hosting.

#-Link-Snipped-# : Which port are you running your apache on? Is it the default 80 or you've a custom configured port?

If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to access any computer's localhost by typing <servers' IP address (viz. 192.168.x.x😛ORTNUMBER). Have you tried doing that? You might need to edit Windows firewall settings to unblock inbound connections.

For WordPress, I think your regular Eclipse PDT should work great.

I would try Eclipse PDT.😀
I got another problem that even if I added port for for inbound rule in firewall or even stopped firewall. I can't able to access server using IP.
I tried using tomcat and even disabled firewall at all but no luck. It's some kind of weird windows problem.
Ping to local system is working but not the port. check using Advance port scanner. It saying port is not open.

Why not just try disabling the firewall altogether? Are you able to Ping to the host over the lan?
