How to set Get Foward/Backfoward ub UE>5.4 version

I am following this climbing ladder tutorial

The node he uses at 10:00 “Get forward/Backward”, the uploader says “You can add another float variable and set it with action value Y from EnhancedInputAction IA_Move. Use this variable instead of get move forward/backward node.”

This is what I’ve tried but when I press W like he does, my character isn’t moving.
I’m using my own character, is there anything I miss?

These are the whole nodes I’ve done for this section, which are all following his.


What do you have on begin play? Are you adding an input mapping context on Begin Play or Receive Controller Changed?

Sorry I’m quite new on UE5. Can you explain how can I check it?

Right click anywhere on an event graph to open up the context menu. Type Begin Play. You should see the node in the menu. Click it. Either you already are using Begin Play and it’ll take you to wherever in the graph the node is located OR it will place down a Begin Play node. You can also check out a fresh Third Person project and look inside of BP_ThirdPerson to see how player inputs are programmed.

It Mappin context.
I’ve replaced my character for the default third person mesh
