What is wrong with my bone rig and what settings have I messed up?

Question

I've created movement before with a simpler bone rig and since then have weight painted the entire model to red.

Whenever I go into pose mode and try to move anything, nothing happens, I simply can't get any movement.

Is there an armature setting I could be missing?

Here is my blender file.

Nothing moves because the "manipulate center points" is checked:

$\begingroup$ okay I figured it out I had to select my armature that was made as a parent file, as an armature of the orginal object $\endgroup$
