Displaying Username - Parse - ios

Question

I have looked ALL over the internet and found nothing, Please help me. Im trying to figure out how I can display a username from parse in my table view (detailTextLabel). When I do the code below my app only shows the PFUser Id not the username. It will display: <PFUser:H2AhEbYGal:(null)> { but I'm trying to display the username of that post.
Heres me saving the object:
PFUser *user = [PFUser currentUser];
PFObject *quoteNew = [PFObject objectWithClassName:#"New"];
quoteNew[#"author"] = user;
[quoteNew setObject:[[self quoteText] text] forKey:#"quoteText"];
Here is me trying to retrieve the user in a PFQuery:
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:#"New"];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// The find succeeded. The first 100 objects are available in objects'
[query includeKey:#"author"];
// PFObject *testObject = [query findObjects];
// PFUser *testUser = [testObject objectForKey:#"author"];
// NSLog(#"username: %#",testUser.username);
} else {
// Log details of the failure
NSLog(#"Error: %# %#", error, [error userInfo]);
}
}];
Here is me trying to display it:
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#: %#",[object objectForKey:#"author"],[dateFormat stringFromDate:updated]];
You can just worry about [object objectForKey:#"author"] in that cell.detailTextLabel.text code.

Answer 1

This:
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:#"New"];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// The find succeeded. The first 100 objects are available in objects'
[query includeKey:#"author"];
// PFObject *testObject = [query findObjects];
// PFUser *testUser = [testObject objectForKey:#"author"];
// NSLog(#"username: %#",testUser.username);
} else {
// Log details of the failure
NSLog(#"Error: %# %#", error, [error userInfo]);
}
}];
Should be:
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:#"New"];
// BEFORE WE QUERY
[query includeKey:#"author"];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// Get your objects here
} else {
// Log details of the failure
NSLog(#"Error: %# %#", error, [error userInfo]);
}
}];
And this:
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#: %#",[object objectForKey:#"author"],[dateFormat stringFromDate:updated]];
Should be:
PFUser *userToDisplay = object[#"author"];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#: %#",userToDisplay.username,[dateFormat stringFromDate:updated]];
Because, as it stands, problem 1 is you're saying to include the author AFTER you have already queried parse. Problem 2 is that you're trying to display the whole user, you need to get the user, and then print the username value.
