25+### Joining the hallway
26+
27+[The Hallway](https://webring.xxiivv.com/hallway.html) is a decentralized forum using [twtxt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user/twtxtfile.html) feeds.
28+
29+To join, create a twtxt text file, and add its URL to your webring entry under `feed`.
30+This file needs to be accessible via CORS, so if you're self-hosting, please make sure to allow the `webring.xxiivv.com` origin.
31+Here's an example of how to do so with Nginx:
32+```
33+location / {
34+ index index.html;
35+ if ($request_method = 'GET') {
36+ add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' 'https://webring.xxiivv.com';
37+ add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET';
38+ add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'DNT,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type,Range';
39+ add_header 'Access-Control-Expose-Headers' 'Content-Length,Content-Range';
40+ }
41+}
42+```
43+You don't need to allow all origins nor allow any other methods rather than GET, doing so can harm the security of your website, please read about [Cross-Origin Resource Sharing](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS) if you intend to do anything more complicated.
