There should be a note in the CSRF AJAX docs that the
{{{CSRF_COOKIE_HTTP_ONLY}}} setting will prevent non-safe ajax calls from
working (if using the js provided). It should note that you have to
include the csrf token via the template tag {{{{% csrf_token %}}}}, and
update the js with something like this:
{{{#!javascript
var csrftoken = getCookie('csrftoken');
if (csrftoken === null) {
csrftoken = $('input[name="csrfmiddlewaretoken"]').val();
if (csrftoken === null) {
console.log('No csrf token');
}
}
}}}
This is my first Django issue/ticket, sorry if I missed anything.
