I'm pretty new to craft and creating my first front end entry form using the demo code provided by craft. For some reason I'm getting a 'Request missing required body param' error. I've tried adding <input type="hidden" name="entryId" value=""> but that didn't solve the issue.
Here's my code:
{% extends "_layout.twig" %}
{% macro errorList(errors) %}
{% if errors %}
{{ ul(errors, {class: 'errors'}) }}
{% endif %}
{% endmacro %}
{# If there were any validation errors, an `entry` variable will be
passed to the template, which contains the posted values
and validation errors. If that’s not set, we’ll default
to a new entry. #}
{% set entry = entry ?? create('craft\\elements\\Entry') %}
{# Add `enctype="multipart/form-data"` to `<form>` if you’re
uploading files. #}
<form method="post" accept-charset="UTF-8" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{{ csrfInput() }}
{{ actionInput('entries/save-entry') }}
{{ redirectInput('viewentry/{slug}') }}
{{ hiddenInput('friends', '2') }}
<input type="hidden" name="entryId" value="">
<div class="mb-6">
<label for="title" class="block mb-2 text-sm font-medium text-gray-900 dark:text-white">Your Dog's Name</label>

<div class="mb-6">
