CORS policy for S3 integration for s2Member

rosswaters · 26 July 2017 18:06

Hi Everyone,

What do most people do with the CORS policy on their S3 bucket when using that option with s2Member.

I am thinking there might be a problem with that and it is leading to failures on my test site. It looks like they applied a sample copy to my CORS info.

CORSConfiguration -
- CORSRule -
  - AllowedOrigin - * - /AllowedOrigin -
  - AllowedMethod - GET - /AllowedMethod -
  - MaxAgeSeconds - 3000 - /MaxAgeSeconds -
  - AllowedHeader - Authorization - /AllowedHeader -
- /CORSRule -
/CORSConfiguration -

I didn’t know how to place code into this so I replaced all <> with hyphens so it would show it.

Thanks for any and all answers,

Ross

Ross,

You paste code here by typing three backticks (they look like this: `) on a line, then hit Enter, paste the code, hit Enter again, and type another three backticks. Then hit Enter again if you want to type something after the code.

What “failures” are you seeing? Do you have any special headers set in your site’s .htaccess file?

Sorry for the delay Tim, we have been traveling all month. I can’t recall the exact error but it failed to connect and download the file. When looking into it I stumbled across the CORS policy and figured this was the issue. I have since deleted the test site but I can make another if it isn’t my .htaccess that is at fault.

Here is my .htaccess content. (Note domain has been renamed to “mysite” and “aws” on cloudfront.)

Thanks for any help on this.

Ross,

I don’t know if this will resolve your problem but, when I had Comet Cache force trailing slashes, it caused a variety of problems. I can’t remember what they were now, but turning that feature off did make a big difference.

rosswaters · 12 August 2017 18:40

Thanks Tim, I will give that a try. I bet that is the issue. but I will let you know the outcome.

I just bought FileZilla Pro to upload everything into the S3 bucket so it is getting close to converting the whole site to use Amazon.

rosswaters · 14 August 2017 16:39

Hi Tim,

Would placing this in the .htaccess fix the issue?
‘’’
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(?:^|/)wp-content/plugins/s2member-files(?:/|$)
‘’’
If not is there an option like this to remove just the directory for Amazon to get rid of the trailing slashes. I ask because I am not sure if I have the statement above correct. I have never nested directories that are deep before just root directories.

Comet Cache states that it needs it to be turned on or it is recommended, is there an downside to just turning the whole thing off, like a performance hit.

Thanks,
Ross

KTS915 · 14 August 2017 20:18

Ross,

I’m no expert on the .htaccess file. I just follow guidance I get from people I trust. So I can’t really answer your first question.

I haven’t found any performance hit in just turning off trailing slashes in Comet Cache. I would think it’s more ikely to affect SEO. Then again, while I have not yet been convinced that anyone knows how to measure any SEO effect reliably, the sites that I have that aren’t completely locked down remain within the first three hits on relevant Google searches. Whether that’s really because I use The SEO Framework plugin, though, again I couldn’t say.

rosswaters · 15 August 2017 08:06

Okay thanks Tim,

I will try both options and see what one works and if my code makes it or breaks it

Thanks again,
ross
