@ilenia is true.
you should add value attributes like below.

<form action="https://freecatphotoapp.com/submit-cat-photo">
  <label for="Indoor"><input id="Indoor" value = "indoor" type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor"> Indoor</label>
  <label for="Outdoor"><input id="Outdoor" value = "outdoor" type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor"> Outdoor</label><br>
  <label for="Loving"><input id="Loving" value = "loving" type="checkbox" name="personality"> Loving</label>
  <label for="Lazy"><input id="Lazy" value = "lazy" type="checkbox" name="personality"> Lazy</label>
  <label for="Energetic"><input id="Energetic" value = "energetic" type="checkbox" name="personality"> Energetic</label><br>
  <input type="text" placeholder="cat photo URL" required>
  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

I hope my code will help you, @pl3x

It is great that you solved the challenge, but instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge.

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting full working solutions.
