CSRF token missing or invalid Django

Question

I\'ve run into this issue before and solved it, but this just popped up totally randomly (or so it seems). I\'ve just come back to my Django project after a little while aw

Answer 1

For security purposes, the CSRF token is changed ('rotated') when you log in. If you open a page in Tab A, then log in on Tab B, then attempt to submit the form in Tab A, you will get a CSRF error, because the CSRF token in Tab A is out of date.

When you refresh Tab A, a new CSRF token is loaded, and the errors will stop.
