 * We use the free version to embed our PDF calendars. It has stopped working. Short
   code is the same. We haven’t made any changes. Appears plugin is up to date as
   well. Not sure what’s causing the issue for us. Getting this error code in Developer
   Tools

 * Hi, [@cmauserdonte](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cmauserdonte/).
   Thanks
   for contacting us!
 * I took a look at your website and noticed this **Cross-Origin Request Blocked**
   error: [https://a.supportally.com/i/IHBjQg](https://a.supportally.com/i/IHBjQg)
 * By default, web browsers have security policies that do not allow Javascript 
   code to fetch files from a different domain to the web page on which the code
   is already running.
 * However, it is possible to configure Amazon S3 and other storage services to 
   permit this, and then you’d just have to change the shortcode URL to point to
   the PDF on S3. i.e. `[pdf-embedder url="<url to pdf on S3>"]`
 * To do this, you must “enable CORS on S3 Buckets”. To ensure that browsers can
   access the files stored on S3, please follow the steps mentioned on our [Knowledge Base](https://wp-pdf.com/kb/hosting-pdfs-on-other-services-such-as-amazon-s3/).
 * Thanks, and please let us know how it goes 🙂

 * This wasn’t an issue before. Is there a solution that doesn’t involve moving 
   our files away from WordPress existing media structure?

 * I disabled GoDaddy CDN and everything is working now.

 * Great to know, [@cmauserdonte](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cmauserdonte/).
 * If it helps, we have instructions in our [Knowledge Base](https://wp-pdf.com/kb/hosting-pdfs-on-other-services-such-as-amazon-s3/)
   showing how to do it without moving files or removing your CDN.
 * Thanks, and have a good one!

 * Your option only includes 3rd party providers. We do not want to add in an additional
   service.
