Have you [enabled CORS](https://meta.discourse.org/t/advanced-setup-and-administration/15929)?

@eviltrout Is it possible to enable CORS from administrative area? Because not sure our plan allows to edit app.xml file..

I mean we have added from Admin URL for CORS. Why DELETE and PUT requests still not working? Is it possible to fix it from Admin?
