WARNING: Can't verify CSRF token authenticity rails

You should do this:

1. Make sure that you have <%= csrf_meta_tag %> in your layout

2. Add beforeSend to all the ajax request to set the header like below:

$.ajax({ url: 'YOUR URL HERE',  type: 'POST',  beforeSend: function(xhr) {xhr.setRequestHeader('X-CSRF-Token', $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content'))},  data: 'someData=' + someData,  success: function(response) {    $('#someDiv').html(response);  }});

To send token in all requests you can use:

$.ajaxSetup({  headers: {    'X-CSRF-Token': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')  }});

The best way to do this is actually just use <%= form_authenticity_token.to_s %> to print out the token directly in your rails code. You dont need to use javascript to search the dom for the csrf token as other posts mention. just add the headers option as below;

$.ajax({  type: 'post',  data: $(this).sortable('serialize'),  headers: {    'X-CSRF-Token': '<%= form_authenticity_token.to_s %>'  },  complete: function(request){},  url: "<%= sort_widget_images_path(@widget) %>"})

If I remember correctly, you have to add the following code to your form, to get rid of this problem:

<%= token_tag(nil) %>

Don't forget the parameter.
