Saved my days. I use:

add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" $http_origin;
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' 'true';
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT';

For firefox, i installed this plugin
https://add0n.com/access-control.html?version=0.1.9&type=install

After the nginx config above, I was still getting cors erros.
Just installed this plugin and it works

not working for me, I always get 304 redirects on backend requests

@GromNaN thanks a lot :D
If you use a cache server, you must add a Vary: Origin to the response.

add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" $http_origin;
add_header "Vary" "Origin";

It worked for allhost.my-domain.com

I try this configuration, but it is not working. I have a backend server with my code (laravel app) Do I need to have some configurations?
