Head doesn't move while walking

Hi,

 

When I let my puppet walk, the bottom of the face moves with the body down and up but the top of the head stays still.

 

I need to move my head tag down to the bottom of the head but the tag can not be moved.

 

 

I saw in the video of Okay Samurai that his head tag looks different than my head tag and his head tag was able to move: 

 

A neck tag does not solve the problem wherever I put it.

Does someone know the solution?

There are two types of handles.

Usually, the head tag is attached to the origin handle.
Your handle is a normal handle that is not an origin handle.
That may be the reason.

    I deleted the handle and then it transformed into the origin handle and know I can move it.

    My puppet can walk now. 

    Thank you for your help!

      The first thing you should do is check to see if the layer inside the head that is also named head has it's own head tag. If so, get rid of it. CH will try to tag everything with a head name even though it cannot handle a second head nested inside the first.

      Thank you for your comment. No the head layer does not have a head tag. Only the head group

      Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of experience with walking. Nine times out of ten, there's a duplicate tag which isn't your case. As I understandi it, you might also check whether or not the feet are pinned in the walk behavior.
