iOS Header not visible in TableView Controller

[martylavender]

Do I need to declare the header somehow or should self.navigationItem.title display the header in the table view by itself?

- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

self.items = @[@{@"name" : @"Take out the trash", @"category" : @"Home"}, @{@"name" : @"Go Shopping", @"category" : @"Home"}].mutableCopy;

self.navigationItem.title = @"What needs to be done";

self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemAdd target:self action:@selector(addNewItem:)];
}

}

Try

self.title = @"Whatever you want to say"

If you want, you can see the source here: https://bitbucket.org/mlavender/a-little-to-do-app

I tried self.title = @"TItle";

I still dont see the header. I think perhaps its the way my ViewController are setup?

Is this header in the table view or in the navigation bar?

self.title = @"blah" is how to set the title in the NavBar. There has to be a Navbar and navigation controller for this to work.

If you want to set the header in the table view that's different.

Not a lot of help for you so far in this thread.

If you UITableViewController in a UINavigationController. If so, setting the title property of the UITableViewController will display the title in the UINavigationController.

Hope this helps.
