access to xmlhttprequest blocked by cors policy

[ghost]

The latest update to this repo has it set up to scrape blogs from a URL instead of through HTML files as are in the instructions. When I am pointing to the HTML directory nothing happens and dev console shows no errors or nothing happening. When I use the scrape from URLs (a txt file of all blog posts) I get the error "access to xmlhttprequest blocked by cors policy"

Hi @raposx ... Thanks for the note! Good catch; definitely a spot to improve in our documentation. In crawler.php, there is a chunk of code you can comment out that allows for either importing from files or URLs. If you're importing from URLs you'll likely run into that CORS error... I've used the Chrome plugin Allow-Control-Allow-Origin-* to get around it during content imports!

Hope that helps.
