You cannot use dev anymore in Chrome, they made changes and it will no longer work
I had the same problem that's why I just went with .localhost.
No the certificate should work with all sites, I only have one I just tell Chrome to work
with it when Chrome errors just click the Advanced and tell it it's ok.
What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?
