TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners who want to let other domains fetch content via AJAX, such as embedding help pages into a single page application hosted elsewhere. It solves the problem of browsers blocking cross-origin AJAX requests by using the Origin header to selectively allow requests from domains specified in the plugin's settings.

  • CORS standard support
  • Origin header checking
  • Settings page for allowed domains
  • AJAX request handling

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WP-CORS

If you want to integrate content from your site to JavaScript applications running on other host domains (or allow other people to) then the CORS standard is a way to allow this.
CORS is more modern and more secure since it works with the browser's same-origin policy and XmlHttpRequest objects rather than bypassing them.
You can find the CORS spec here: http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/ You can learn more about how to use CORS here: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/cors/
This plugin's Settings page allows administrators to specify a comma separated list of allowed domains.
