JirkaRybka commentedAFAICT, the (nearly) only case where it happens is, when I submit a form that was built in another session (i.e. was long open in my browser, while I logged in/out in another tab to switch admin/normal user or the like). I wonder whether there's a compact-enough way to say "most probably you've logged in/out after the page was initially loaded, so try re-loading a fresh form, and fill it again"
Comment #2
wim leersThis is because the form CSRF token expired. The message assumes an administrator is able to figure that out, because it assumes the administrator is a developer. That may be a wrong assumption, but saying "the CSRF token expired" would probably be similarly bad: it'd scare administrators who aren't developers.
