CSRF token missing or incorrect ['SOLVED']

Hi, everybody! Does somebody can help with this:

When I fill the form and put "submit", instead of page stay as it should be, it shows:

Forbidden (403)

CSRF verification failed. Request aborted. Reason given for failure: CSRF token missing or incorrect.

What can be wrong?

Do you have {% csrf_token %} in between the opening and closing form tags in your templates/suggestion_form.html?
