What is the error?

[venthewolf]

I'm getting the generic error at the place where i put the process bit

There was an error with your form. Please go back and try again. Please note that submitting the form by refreshing the page will cause an error.

If this continues to happen, please contact the administrator.

[Brandin]

You are missing your CSRF token in your form.

<input type="hidden" name="csrf" value="<?=Token::generate()?>" />

If you have that already-you probably are generating the token more than one time.

[venthewolf]

Yup it is the csrf, oddly it gives me a error now:

Notice: Undefined index: csrf in /home/dave/public_html/users/helpers/forms.php on line 308

[Brandin]

You probably didn't define it, you need a Token::generate with a hidden field named csrf.

[venthewolf]

Well i inserted the hidden field, still the same error.
Here is the file in the current state:
https://pastebin.com/m3y1ynru

The file is called "createevent.php" and it resides in the "usersc" directory

[Brandin]

Okay-your issue is you're calling process form after display form-so everything gets overwritten. Remove the token and move process form to the top //Where PHP goes

[venthewolf]

I put the processForm in the section with "//php goes here" and i still get the same error

edit: i put the code from the documentation in, and it works

thanks for the help

Awesome. Glad it's working. I'm working on making that clearer in the sample pages.
