Please bare with me here - first time developing a Discourse plugin. Was thrown into this project by my job… Background: This is a continuation of this post . For clarity, I’ll repeat the background here. My company runs an internal Discourse Forum, as well as an internal WordPress site. The fo…

Something about what’s not working would really help here; it looks like you’re on the right track. I’d recommend you have a peek at some of the existing plugins which do this sort of thing; Retort is a pretty minimal example of adding a single route and controller to Discourse.

Oops, that would help, wouldn’t it! Completely forgot after writing all the details… When testing this on our dev site, after clicking the X (which calls the URL) the following error is seen in the console: XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://staffforum-dev.{redacted}.com/staffcorner/mark-read/637…

Oh, you have a CORS issue, looks like between https://staffforum-dev.{redacted}.com and https://staffdev.{redacted}.com. ( Moar on CORS ) If I had to guess, I’d say you need to modify your https://staffdev.{redacted}.com site to allow requests from https://staffforum-dev.{redacted}.com via the ACCESS…

Thanks @gdpelican , I’m reading more on CORS now. Just to be sure I’m following you correctly - I need to modify staffdev (WordPress) to allow requests from staffforum-dev (Discourse)? Not the other way around? Edit: Also, I’m having a hard time understanding why this worked previously (with the c…

If I’m reading the error right, I think you’re doing an AJAX request FROM staffdev.{redacted}.com TO staffforumdev.{redacted}.com. Therefore you need to modify Discourse to allow requests from staffdev. I believe that should be as simple as adding staffdev to the “allowed embed” list in the admin p…

Actually, the ‘embed’ section seems to be for embedding by iFrame. The cors origins site setting might be more useful, and looks like you’ll need to “set the DISCOURSE_ENABLE_CORS env variable”

[imagem] jomaxro: why this worked previously My only guess would be that the previous implementation called the Discourse API from a php script, rather than from javascript in the browser. Therefore it wouldn’t be subject to CORS checks.

[imagem] david: the previous implementation called the Discourse API from a php script, rather than from javascript in the browser. Nope - nothing has changed on the Wordpress side. Give me a few minutes and I can grab the implementation there. The only change is that instead of copying a m…

Sorry, I’m probably making more confusion out of this than actually helping :wink: This bit should mean that CORS is not an issue: [imagem] jomaxro: skip_before_filter :check_xhr, :redirect_to_login_if_required However, in your error it says [imagem] jomaxro: Redirect from 'https://sta…
