# CORS policy failure error

I think there is another problem here, @cpradio .

~~I was previously running your `force-http` branch and whilst chasing down another but on the forum I thought I move to the master branch.~~ This is misleading, I’ve reverted to the `force-https` branch and the issue is still there.

Our users are now reporting that they can’t insert memes. Looking at the browser console I see this error.

`Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://api.imgflip.com/caption_image?username=imgflip_hubot&password=imgflip_hubot&template_id=87743020&text0=Work?&text1=Fail?' from origin 'https://sandbox.cpradio.org' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.`

### Steps to reproduce

I am able to reproduce this on your sandbox at …

[https://sandbox.cpradio.org/t/imgflip-plugin-example/54](https://sandbox.cpradio.org/t/imgflip-plugin-example/54)

…where I simply tried to insert a meme and got the error above. Screen shot of the actual console error…

### Environment

I’m running the very latest tests-passed version of Discourse [v2.3.0.beta2 +129](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/compare/15fd8758557dda0f4ddbfcfc8dab71f7f872832a...tests-passed).

I’m using Chrome Version 72.0.3626.96 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Linux - but I’ve also tested on Firefox and the same the problem occurs.

Please let me know if you need any more information.
