      @codac ok, the original post had the module source

      anyhow

      open the developers window on mm

      ctrl-shift-i

      select the tab labeled ‘console’ and add a unique part of the module name to the filter field

      compl

      for example

      see if there are any errors…

      if the module is able to get and parse the contents, it changes the defaults to the remote content

        @sdetweil yes indeed there is:
        Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing

            @sdetweil I’m using clientonly so on the client itself, the config wont have any affect, right? Furthermore on the server side there already is set 0.0.0.0

              @codac fun… yeh, client only , what are u using for the client? MM clientonly or chrome?

              if the former, I would try the latter

              this is what I use to start the chrome browser over server where electron doesn’t exist

              chromium  -noerrdialogs -kiosk -start_maximized  --disable-infobars --app=http://$server:$port  --ignore-certificate-errors-spki-list --ignore-ssl-errors --ignore-certificate-errors 2>/dev/null
              

              do

              server=    mm server
              port=        mm server port
              

              then the command above in a terminal window to test

                Modern browser doesn’t allow cross-originated contents(code, data whatever) by default for security reason. I think there might be an option to turn it off(in browser or electron) I’m in out of my pc, so can’t test it by myself, but definitely exist, I know.

                  In chrome/chromium, it might be --disable-web-security flag on execution.

                    Yeah, I’ve seen solutions using a htaccess file and

                    Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://amazing.site
                    

                    as content.

                    Anyhow, I fixed it now placing the remote file on my server and not a remote web-server.
                    You can enter the local path and filename as stated here.

                    That worked for me.

                      @codac good…

                      htaccess is on the server side…

                      this error is server generated, client should NOT be able to 'get around ’ it
