try, except, else challenge. Is it formatting issues???

My code appears right yet I still can't pass the challenge. I've referenced other peoples code and it's pretty much the same.

trial.py 
def add(num1, num2):
try:
    num1 = float(num1)
    num2 = float(num2)
except ValueError:
    return None 
else:
    return (num1 + num2)

I don't know if this is just how you put it in the cheatsheet but all of the code for add is not indented. If that's the case just indent it and you'll be fine.
