Problems with back derailleur.
So as the title says I have a problem with my back derailleur. I was trying to bend back my derailleur hanger and after I did it and tried to hang my derailleur back up it just didn't shift anymore. I tried adjusting the limit screws and barrel adjuster but the barrel adjuster doesn't do anything. If you know a fix feel free to answer.

I think this thread is going to need a bit more info. You said you were attempting to "bend back" the hanger. Why/how was it bent out of position in the first place? If it was due to an accident...could it be that the derailleur was damaged in the accident? Is it bent too? Did you check to make sure all pivot points and hinges were functioning before re-mounting it? Are the pulley wheels spinning freely? When you re-hung it did you reconnect the shifter cable (properly) and adjust it? Maybe you could also add a picture or two of your situation.
