We have been asked to allow interactive activities, where students can interact with the OPAC with the application Libwizard (from Springshare) embedded. I understand Libwizard can offer a number of experiences including a quiz-type one or a guided learning one. Our Koha server has been configured to decline CORS (cross-origin scripting requests) by default, and our support company is wary of switching it on, and our university cyber security folk are... less than enthusiastic as this stage too. Has anyone enabled CORS in such as way as we are being asked to? Apparently one (safer?) option would be to set up a secondary domain, with the CORS security mechanism (plus a few other things) disabled. Before we even our support company about that I thought I'd ask if anyone has done what we are being asked to do?
