I am trying to login to my wordpress site using ajax call, which i asked in previous question. It should not respond anything back. But whenever i call this ajax function, Firefox(firebug) is showing 200 OK in red. This must be a cross domain issue. Tried too many things but no luck so far. Here is the code:
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://path-to-wordpress/wp-login.php",
data:myData
success: function(data){
},
error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
}
});
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
I assume your JS code is on
abc.comand your wordpress site isdev.abc.com.To fix cross domain issue, just add the following code to
.htaccessfile to your wordpress site (dev.abc.com)Just replace
(abc.com)with a proper site name. For eg:(google.com)or(yahoo.com)Set the dataType to
JSONP, in your ajax call and it will work cross-domainFor refrence ot ajax call visit jQuery Ajax
There is property named crossDomain of $.ajax. Please set it to true.
You need to add CORS headers in you
wp-login.phppage.Here’s how to do it
But given the nature of the page, be extra cautious : don’t allow all origins (*) but only your site. If you allow all, your users could have their login info stolen.
