Want to change NavigationItem title - ios

Question

I've embedded my first view into a NavigationController and then i set the segue as push.
I want to change in each view the title of the Navigation bar to display something and update it through my code.
i tried to call the navigation controller like this:
self.navigationController.navigationBar.topItem.title = #"YourTitle";
but this wont work, how can I do it?

Answer 1

Navigation controller gets the title from the viewcontroller so
this will do the job
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
self.title = #"Some Title";
}

Answer 2

This works for me:
self.navigationItem.title = #"YourTitle";
Hope it helps.

Answer 3

self.title = #"My Title"
This will change the navigation bars title as well as the title elements that refer to this view controller (eg. tab bar etc.)
self.navigationItem.title = #"My Title";
This will change only the title for the navigation bar for current view controller.

Answer 4

You can replace title view too:
UIView* titleView = [[UIView alloc] init];
[self.navigationItem setTitleView: titleView];

Answer 5

if u only change the navigation bar title then try this
on initwithnibname method
self.title=#"your title";
but you want to give a color or font size of title then u want to take a UIlable on it
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:20.0];
label.shadowColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.0 alpha:0.5];
label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
label.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
self.navigationItem.titleView = label;
label.text =#"your title";
[label sizeToFit];
