For my code structure:
On AppDelegate, I declared 4 UINavigationController with their own root UIViewController for my UITabBar.
I created one custom UIViewController as template, in where my other UIViewControllers are sub-class.
On my template:
I have my rightBarButtonItem to show current user profile.
// public method added on template
- (void) goToProfile {
NSLog(#"going through...");
ProfileViewController *ctrl = [[ProfileViewController alloc] init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:ctrl animated:YES];
}
For my leftBarButtonItem:
- (void) goBack {
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
First click on the rightBarButtonItem, works fine. If I click the leftBarButtonItem to go back then re-click the rightBarButtonItem, it won't work anymore.
In addition, I have a button on one of my UIViewController that is calling the public method goToProfile. And that works fine.
I got help from my co-worker. The approach is something similar to #Vidhyanand900 answer. I hope this will help others in the future.
tabbarSelectedIndex = 1; // profile tab index
ProfileViewController *ctrl = [[ProfileViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *navController = [_appDelegate.mainTabBarController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:tabbarSelectedIndex];
[navController pushViewController:ctrl animated:YES];
self.mainTabBarController.selectedIndex = tabbarSelectedIndex;
If you are pushing or popping with UINavigation controllers of UITabBar
Else show UINavigation Controllers inside UITab Bar..i.e; Is Profile View controller is part of UITab bar or not..
Then you need to change the index of tab bar as below
self.tabBarController.selectedIndex=0;//if profile is first tab
ProfileViewController *ctrl = [[ProfileViewController alloc] init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:ctrl animated:YES];
Hope it helps you...

I have a viewController in which, on the click of back button, I need to go to a specific viewController and call its method.So I created a barButton and added as a BACK button in navigation bar.When its selector is called I can see only see a black screen, nothing else.
Here how I am doing it.
In viewDidLoad
//Back Button in navigation Bar.
UIBarButtonItem *newBackButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Back" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(navigationBackButtonClicked:)];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem=newBackButton;
The selector below executes and shows a black screen.
-(void)navigationBackButtonClicked:(UIBarButtonItem *)sender {
SharedManager *sharedManagerObject = [SharedManager sharedInstance];
NSString *source = sharedManagerObject.toCityString;
NSString *destination = sharedManagerObject.fromCityString;
NSString *dateStr = sharedManagerObject.dateSelected_String;
BusListViewController *buslist_VC = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"BusListViewController"];
[buslist_VC getBusListForSource:source destination:destination date:dateStr];
[self.navigationController popToViewController:buslist_VC animated:YES];
}
You need to add your buslist_VC to the view hierarchy of your navigation controller before using [popToViewController:animated:]. This is used to display some viewcontrollers already in the stack of your navigation Controller.
Either way what you're asking might be a weird behaviour for your user but you can use :
[self.navigationController popToViewController:[self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:self.navigationController.viewControllers.count - 1] animated:NO];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:buslist_VC animated:NO];
You cann't back to a new ViewController, you can push a new ViewController, in your code change this:
[self.navigationController pushViewController:buslist_VC animated:YES];
But keep in mind, you are putting this new viewController inside the other (where you are created a newBackButton), and the default back button come back to this. If you want to come back to the root use this:
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
Or, now you can come back to any viewController on the navigation stack, this array:
NSArray *navStacks = self.navigationController.viewControllers;
Using popToViewController: be sure is in the stack.
You should use
NSArray *navStacks = self.navigationController.viewControllers;
select needed view controller and do
[self.navigationController popToViewController:selectedVC animated:YES];
I'm trying to move from 1st view controller -> 2nd view controller. However, it seems nothing is happening.
It is mainly from a sign-in page, so I don't need to get back to that page once I have a successful login. I'm trying right now from a button just to check.
I have 2 classes.
signInPage
optionsScreen
I need to go from 1 > 2
Inside signInPage.m
#import "optionsScreen.h"
- (IBAction)moveToNext:(id)sender {
optionsScreen *aSecondPageController =
[[optionsScreen alloc]
initWithNibName:#"optionsScreen"
bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:aSecondPageController animated:YES];
// [aSecondPageController release];
}

Solution:
- (IBAction)moveToNext:(id)sender {
NSString * storyboardName = #"Main_iPhone";
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:storyboardName bundle: nil];
UIViewController * vc = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"optionsScreen"];
[self presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:nil];
}
In storyboard add navigation view controller. As root view controller - perhaps by default it is table view controller, so remove it - set up 1st view controller. Adding navigation controller you can push to navigation stack as many view controllers as you want.
I think what you're trying to do is present the view controller modally, not push it onto the stack (which doesn't exist). Instead you should just do this. This will not show a back button by default so you'll have to add one manually:
optionsScreen *aSecondPageController = [[optionsScreen alloc] initWithNibName:#"optionsScreen" bundle:nil];
[self presentViewController:aSecondPageController animated:YES completion:nil];
To go back, in your optionsScreen view controller, you'll need some sort of back button right? So you can do this in your viewDidLoad:
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Back" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(backPressed:);
Then you'll have to create a new method called backPressed:
-(void)backPressed:(id)sender {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
Edit: it turns out you were trying to do what I explained above. I will leave the navigation controller bit for future reference.
If you are trying to use a navigation controller to push your options, which will give you a back button by default, then first, in your storyboard, click your sign in view controller, then at the menu bar at the top go to Editor > Embed In... > Navigation Controller. Then in your view controller switch method, you can do what you were trying before
optionsScreen *aSecondPageController = [[optionsScreen alloc] initWithNibName:#"optionsScreen" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:aSecondPageController animated:YES];
I'm new to Objective-C and I want to add a UINavigationBar on my CatrgoryBIDViewController. I have proceed UIButton in InstructionBIDViewController.m file that should navigate to CatrgoryBIDViewController. Here is the function code:
- (IBAction)proceed:(id)sender {
viewControllercat =
[[CatrgoryBIDViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"CatrgoryBIDViewController"
bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *nav =
[[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:self.viewControllercat];
//[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewControllercat animated:YES];
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:YES];
}
But it is not setting the UINavigationBar.
You should read the documentation here to understand the way a NavigationController is working. For your case:
If your current ViewController (where your proceed-method is implemented) has a NavigationController (is child of it), you can push another ViewController onto the stack of that NavigationController with
[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewControllercat animated:YES];
In this case you do not need to initialize another NavigationController, but in your CatrgoryBIDViewController in viewWillAppear you need to make the NavigationBar visible if it was not before already with
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:YES];
If your current ViewController does not have a NavigationController, you can not push another ViewController on top of it and can not show the NavigationBar of it (although you can create your own NavigationBar and add it to the View of the ViewController, but without the usual Navigation-behaviour embedded).
If you open your ViewController programmatically (e. g. from the AppDelegate) you are correct to do so by your call:
viewControllercat = [[CatrgoryBIDViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"CatrgoryBIDViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *nav=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.viewControllercat];
My apologies - After having reread your question, I am going to tweak my answer some.
-(IBAction)proceed:(id)sender
{
viewControllercat = [[CatrgoryBIDViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController * nc =
[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vc];
// We now need to display your detail view but cannot push it.
// So display modally
[self presentViewController:nc animated:YES completion:Nil];
}
The above should result in your DetailViewController - CategoryBIDViewController being displayed on top of your InstructionBIDViewController and it should have a UINavigationController in it.
I had an application in which I need to have a login or register system before the tab bar controller is added to the window, such as in Instagram.
I have added 5 navigation controllers (with view controller as its root) to the UITabBarController and then set it as the root of the window. Before that, I need to have another UINavigationController for the login system.
If I add that, how do I remove it before adding tab?
Another problem is that I also have to handle logging out, so I need to come back to it.
Can anybody help me with me how to do this?
I suggest to you loading Loginview From Delegate window as we did Normally. and from Logged Success its button click you set TabbarController like this:-
UIViewController *viewControllerPostalCode2 = [[cntrServices alloc] initWithNibName:#"cntrServices" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *viewControllerPostalCode3 = [[cntrInquiryViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"cntrInquiryViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navPostage1 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewControllerPostalCode2];
UINavigationController *navPostage2 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewControllerPostalCode3];
//
navPostage1.navigationBar.tintColor =DARK_BACKGROUNDNavigation;
navPostage2.navigationBar.tintColor =DARK_BACKGROUNDNavigation;
//
self.tabBarForServicesController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tabBarForServicesController.delegate=self;
self.tabBarForServicesController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:navPostage1,navPostage2,nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:self.tabBarForServicesController animated:YES];
I Done this type of Task using this method and at the Logged Out just poptoRootviewController work back to the Logged in Screen.
I have done this like adding my tabbarcontroller as rootViewController to UIWindow and in applicationbecomeactive delegate i present a controller with navigation controller like when required and simply dismiss the controller when authentication done
UIViewController *topViewController = [self.navController topViewController];
if (![topViewController isKindOfClass:[LGLoginViewController class]]) {
[self.navController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
self.navController = nil;
LGLoginViewController* loginView = [[LGLoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LGLoginViewController"bundle:nil];
if (!self.navController) {
self.navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:loginView];
} else {
[self.navController initWithRootViewController:loginView];
}
self.navController.delegate = self;
[self.window.rootViewController presentModalViewController:self.navController animated:NO];
}
I have UIViewController with tabbar botton, and navigation bar and navigation item,
when I press on my button in navigation Item I want to load a view, I don't know how to load this view on tabbar,
would you please help me,thanks in advance!
-(IBAction) infoPage:(id)sender
{
InfoCtrol *i = [[InfoCtrol alloc] initWithNibName:#"InfoCtrol" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:i animated:YES];
}
This will load the InfoCtrol controller and set the Touch UpInside Event in xib to the infoPage method
Do you mean you want to hide the tab bar when you push new controller in navigation?
If true. There is a property hidesBottomBarWhenPushed in the UIViewController class.
// Instead of adding ViewController to TabbarController, add NavigationControllers.
// Eg.
UINavigationController *NavController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:_viewCtrl1];
[watchListNavController.navigationBar setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
_tabC = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
_tabCt.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:NavController,_viewCtrl2,_viewCtrl3, nil];
// Now you can use Push and Pop In your _viewCtrl1.
// Do same with all the viewController
