I have data coming from Firebase and when the data is loaded I either want the an image to be hidden or shown based on some logic in my custom cell. It works perfectly fine when the data isn't being filtered but the second I type in the search bar or change the scope bar to a different index the image doesn't behave right.
For example: Index 0 should not have the image and index 1 should. Which is how it displays when it first loads. However, when I search I know the previous index 1 (now index 0) should still have it's image but it doesn't. BUT if I click to go to the detail controller it brings me to the right page. It's like it loads all the accurate info but does the logic on the original index 0. I would love some help as I have been searching for an answer FOREVER. Thank you in advance!

If you are hidding image in If part then you should put logic of showing image also in else block. See if this solve your problem.
if let _ = snapshot.value as? NSNull {
self.inviteSentImg.isHidden = true
print("**Image hidden")
} else {
self.inviteSentImg.isHidden = false

I'm working on study project of social network. Stuck on the stage of deleting user comments from Firebase database. To delete a specific comment I need to know the comment Id, but I do not understand how to access it. I'm really appreciate any help on this!
Example of Firebase database:

Speaking at a high level, your tableView is backed by a dataSource, typically an array, which is the source for the content displayed in the tableView.
var userCommentArray = [UserComment]()
you should be loading data from Firebase and storing that data in the array as UserComment objects
class UserComment {
var firebaseKey = ""
var commentText = ""
var uid = ""
}
the firebase_key property is the key to the node in Firebase, shown as -MH_xxxx in the screenshot and then the commentText and uid are is the child data of that node.
The indexes of the elements in the array match what's being shown in the tableView, so row0 matches the array index 0, row 1 matches the array index 1 etc.
When the user deletes row 1, you know that's index 1 in the array. read the object, get it's firebaseKey and then delete it from firebase, updating the array accordingly and then reloading your UI.
See my answer to your Other Question for details on that process.

I have a lot of craziness going on in my project so let me know if you have any questions and what I'm doing wrong. If it's too complicated to understand I'm ready to erase everything and start over too.
And I do honestly think that I followed all the guidelines to ask a question so don't like shut this question down or something.
That's a lot of code. Try this super reduced example. For this, the users node only stores the name as a child node but it could also have an image, email, address, etc.
Example users node
users
uid_0:
name: "Bert"
uid_1:
name: "Ernie"
and some code
var usersArray = [ [String: Any] ]() //an array of dictionaries.
class ViewController: UIViewController {
//set up firebase references here
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let usersRef = self.ref.child("users")
usersRef.observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { snapshot in
for child in snapshot.children {
let snap = child as! DataSnapshot
let userDict = snap.value as! [String: Any]
self.usersArray.append(userDict)
}
self.tableView.reloadData()
})
and the tableView delegate methods
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return self.usersArray.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "HomeTableViewCell", for: indexPath) as! HomeTableViewCell
let userDict = self.usersArray[indexPath.row]
cell.text = userDict["name"] as! String
//cell.imge = userDict["image"] etc etc
return cell
}
Now... that all being said. This is the perfect use for an array of UserClass objects instead of the dictionaries.
Here's a starting point....
class UserClass {
var name = ""
var image = ""
func init(snap: DataSnapshot) {
//populate the vars from the snapshot
}
}
var userClassArray = [UserClass]()
Don't copy and paste this as there are probably typos but it should point you in the right direction.
I have made a searchbar in my table header view. I actually would not mind having it in my navigation bar, by setting it to: navigationItem.titleView = searchController.searchBar.. The problem is though that when the searchBar is active, the navigation bar is dismissed - including the searchBar, So you cannot see what you are searching for?
How can I change that? Here is my complete searchBar code:

var filteredUsers = [NSDictionary?]()
let databaseRef = FIRDatabase.database().reference()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
searchController.searchResultsUpdater = self
searchController.dimsBackgroundDuringPresentation = false
definesPresentationContext = true
//tableView.tableHeaderView = searchController.searchBar
navigationItem.titleView = searchController.searchBar
searchController.searchBar.placeholder = "Søg"
searchController.searchBar.setValue("Annuller", forKey:"_cancelButtonText")
let cancelButtonAttributes: NSDictionary = [NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.whiteColor()]
UIBarButtonItem.appearance().setTitleTextAttributes(cancelButtonAttributes as? [String : AnyObject], forState: UIControlState.Normal)
databaseRef.child("UserInformation").queryOrderedByChild("userName").observeEventType(.ChildAdded, withBlock: { (snapshot) in
self.usersArray.append(snapshot.value as? NSDictionary)

When going to the search page it looks like this (because I added the insets
When searching for a user it looks like this
When having click a user and returned to search it looks like this
I have one screen like the following picture:
I uploaded list with student name by using custom cell as you are seeing and I want when click on save button save the status of student in array , I initialized array with 0 for all student at the first time and when the status of switch is enabled then this value at the clicked cell index converted to 1 but I couldn't make that when the click action happened on switch this is only now happening when click on the cell ( row ) how I can do the same thing when only change the status of switch to update the array without click on complete row at table

There are few ways to do this: using closure or delegate, but I preferred to use delegate.
Create a delegate for your teacherAttendanceCell cell like in this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/25792213/2739795
Make you teacherAttendanceVC conforms the delegate
Each time when cellForRowAtIndexPath calls set cell.delegate = self. Also return the cell into your delegate method
Call method from delegate insidestateChanged
And when delegate method calls you can get an index if switched cell
tableView.indexPathForCell(cellFromParam)
