Cannot log in; get "No active login attempt is in progress for your session" error

Description

I'm unable to log in to the Critical Role wiki with either my username or my bot user name. I get the following error "No active login attempt is in progress for your session". I tried a password reset; it started me on the reset but then when I typed in the new password I got that same error message. I have accepted cookies and I am using Firefox on Windows.

FYI - I saw in the discord server someone mentioned cookies in relationship so I tried Chrome and I could log in so my guess is that this is tied to Firefox's new cookie protections.
I would still like to have access in Firefox - I only have Chrome as a backup - but at least there's a workaround and so if you want to downgrade the priority feel free.

What version of Firefox are you using?

@Bukkit: why has this been lowered? This is arguably UBN rather than normal.

@Reception123 @RhinosF1 thank you and sorry for missing those earlier messages. I disabled Total Cookie Protection on the miraheze domain and that resolved it.

Thanks @Untropicalisland: can you confirm your Firefox and OS version either here or on the Firefox ticket linked?

I think I deployed something that fixed this. It was never totally related to Firefox, and if you have issues, please try clearing browser cookies and see if that resolves the issue. I did test Firefox, with total cookie protection on, and was able to login properly. Therefore. closing as resolved.
