it works... just that
if i use the local ip then i cant access from outside my network (i
can from inside), if i use my ip public i can access from outside...
but cant access from local network.
Example:
192.168.0.158:6875 if i put that i can access from inside my network
(but of course not from outside)
186.50.123.25:6875 if i put that (my public ip), i can access from
outside but not from inside
Thanks.
p.s.: of course i have a portforwarding configuration in the router (i
already have other server working).

First of all use a reverse proxy like Traefik or nginx and only allow
the stuff you want to expose. Second use a FQDN like
bookstack.domain.com. Then use split DNS to access it via FQDN. On
your LAN it will resolve to 192.168... and from WAN to 186.50.... as
added benefit get a valid SSL certificate for your FQDN and only
access boockstack via HTTPS.

Safest best is to use wg-easy and a DDNS like duckdns.org to connect
to your network without exposing it to the internet
