Rig won't work

Hi, I have a problem with my model. I can’t make the rig work.
I did everythink as it should be, but when I go to pose mode the rig moves without the mesh. The mesh is not very clean, maybe thats the problem?
I also suspect the vertex groups, but I do not know anything about weight painting at this point.
Help is greatly appreciated.
I would attach the blender file, but I don’t know how.
Also there is a warning, when I open the file… I don’t know what I broke there…

Did you try doing this

Select Character > Shift Select Armature > Ctrl P (With Automatic Weights) ?

BTW this operation is to be done in Object Mode.

Yes, I did that. It doesn’t work. It does the rigging, but its not moving

It is a security default. Read about it here.

Certainly things that come with Blender like Rigify are likely to be ‘safe’, I suspect any bad stuff would rapidly be reported and dealt with.

Ultimately it has to be your choice though.

I solved the error message by importing the fbx of the tapir into a new project. Still won’t move though. Maybe I am missing something simple.

Why is it an FBX not a blender file?
Did you make the rig? Is it a basic Rigify animal one adapted to this animal?

Blender is coded with the Python language!
With Python, you can do a lot on a computer, and manipulate information for example.
Add-ons downloaded from the web contain also Python code.
But there is no way to validate the Python code intentions.
Maybe it does a neat Blender trick, but also something else. Like Trojan horse …

That is why you get this message, of untrusted Python code. It is disabled by the system.
Only to be activated by a Blender user.

Which Rig is this?

Can you show me The Object Data Properties? The triangle shape Icon that contains Vertex Group and Shape Keys Information!

@NP5 Hi, yeah, so I made the model, but since the file has this error message I did the next best thing and imported the model into a new one. The rig is the basic quadruped rigify rig, which I changed for my model.

@FedPete thanks! First problem solved; installed phython … What a stupid mistake. I deleted it, because… stupid. -_-

@umishrak this one? The shape keys one is empty…

Then you are doing something wrong while selecting the character and the bones.

Are you selecting the bones or the IK Symbols ?
