I have custom UITableViewCell cells in a UITableView. When a cell is selected by the user and the cell is scrolled off the screen, and then scrolled back into the screen, the selected cell is blank. I know that I need to set all values in the cell as the cells are reused, but I have not been able to figure this one out. Iamge 1 represents a user selecting the cell: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/j4wBv.png" alt="Table when a cell is selected"> Image 2 represents when the cell is scrolled off screen and back on screen <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/kvgyC.png" alt="Table when the cell is scrolled off screen and back on screen"> (Ignore the fact the images are blurred, simply protecting my customers data) Note: I want to be able to select the table, don't suggest to remove the ability to highlight the cell. I actually want to be able to see the blue cell when scrolling a selected cell back into the screen. Any help will be appreciated. EDIT: Adding some code: <pre><code>// Define a property to keep track of the cell that was selected last using the NSIndexPath @property (nonatomic, strong) NSIndexPath *lastSelectedIndexPath; /////// - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { // Keeps track of the lastest selected entry self.lastSelectedIndexPath = indexPath; } - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { IPCSearchResultTableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"Cell" forIndexPath:indexPath]; [self configureCell:cell atIndexPath:indexPath]; return cell; } - (void)configureCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { // Cast the cell to the custom cell IPCSearchResultTableViewCell *searchResultCell = (IPCSearchResultTableViewCell *)cell; // RepositoryIndex is a coredata object with information MyCoreDataEntity *entity = [self.fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath]; searchResultCell.label1.text = entity.attribute1; searchResultCell.label2.text = entity.attribute2; searchResultCell.label3.text = entity.attribute3; searchResultCell.label4.text = entity.attribute4; } </code></pre> *NOTE: The code above now seems to be working. I am not experiencing this issue anymore and don't know why *

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
