Wrong PFUser objectId when selecting recipients in didSelectRowAtIndexPath Parse.com - ios

Question

I'm currently building a photo messaging app where users can send photos to each other. When the photo is taken, you select recipients from a UITableView in a new View Controller.
But every time I select a person from the list and send the photo, it gets the wrong user.objectId. It seems to take the Friendship objectId which is another class named Friendship, when it should take the objectId of the user. Here's how I'm doing it:
#implementation PickRecipientsViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
self.recipients = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[_selectedImage setImage:_image];
self.tableView.delegate = self;
[self refreshFriends];
}
- (void)refreshFriends {
[__acceptedRequests removeAllObjects];
PFQuery *friendsQuery = [self queryForFriends];
PFQuery *acceptedRequestQuery = [self queryForAcceptedFriendRequests];
PFQuery *friendRequestsQuery = [self queryForRequests];
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH, 0), ^{
// Find friends
NSArray *objects = [friendsQuery findObjects];
for (PFObject * obj in objects) {
[obj[#"user1"] fetchIfNeeded];
[obj[#"user2"] fetchIfNeeded];
}
_friends = [objects mutableCopy];
// Find pending requests
objects = [friendRequestsQuery findObjects];
for (PFObject *obj in objects) {
[obj[#"fromUser"] fetchIfNeeded];
}
__friendRequests = [objects mutableCopy];
// Find accepted requests
objects = [acceptedRequestQuery findObjects];
for (PFObject *obj in objects) {
PFUser *to = (PFUser*)[obj[#"toUser"] fetchIfNeeded];
[obj deleteEventually];
[__acceptedRequests addObject:to[#"username"]];
}
// show accepted requests
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[self.tableView reloadData];
if (__acceptedRequests.count > 0) {
NSString *friends = __acceptedRequests[0];
for (int i = 1; i < __acceptedRequests.count; ++i) {
friends = [friends stringByAppendingFormat:#", %#", __acceptedRequests[i]];
}
friends = [friends stringByAppendingString:#" accepted your friend request"];
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"New Friends" message:friends delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Wuhu" otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
alert.tag = kAlertTagAcceptedRequest;
[alert show];
}
});
});
}
- (PFQuery *)queryForAcceptedFriendRequests {
PFUser *user = [PFUser currentUser];
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:#"status = %# AND (fromUser = %# AND toUser != %#)", #"approved", user, user];
PFQuery *acceptedRequestQuery = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:#"FriendRequest" predicate:predicate];

Because _friends is an array of Friendship objects and when a row is tapped you just directly get it out of the array and don't then get the appropriate user from it (like you do when you configure the cell labels).
So in tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: you should have something like:
BOOL adding = NO;
if (cell.accessoryType == UITableViewCellAccessoryNone){
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
adding = YES;
} else {
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
}
PFObject *friendRequest = [_friends objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
PFUser *user1 = (PFUser *)friendRequest[#"user1"];
PFUser *user2 = (PFUser *)friendRequest[#"user2"];
PFUser *recipient = nil;
if ([user1.username isEqualToString:[PFUser currentUser].username]) {
recipient = user2;
} else if ([user2.username isEqualToString:[PFUser currentUser].username]) {
recipient = user1;
}
if (adding) {
[self.recipients addObject:recipient.objectId];
} else {
[self.recipients removeObject:recipient.objectId];
}
