I have set up some Sitecore extranet users (8.1.160519). I am using MVC AntiForgeryTokens for some posts. The problem is with the login form explicitly. When I am developing I am logged in as Admin and as one of my extrant users. If I log in as the Admin first, then try to login as my extranet user I get:

The provided anti-forgery token was meant for user "sitecore\admin", but the current user is "extranet\eschofer".

I am tempted to turn off the AntiForgeryToken for the login form, but would prefer to try and mitigate this.

I already tried setting:

AntiForgeryConfig.SuppressIdentityHeuristicChecks = true;

I am not sure I have this in the correct place in the Pipeline but at least right now it has no effect. Here is where it currently exists in the initialize pipeline:

Use two browsers: when logged in as sitecore\admin and extranet\xxx might break other things as well. Use a chrome-browser and incognito window to truly have a visitor experience. This is better from a security perspective as well.

  • Is there a way I can make this gracefully fail? For example - "You are already logged in, please log out!" or something? Commented Dec 21, 2016 at 19:26

    I would use a pipeline for that one, to check if you are logged in into the right domain
