    <p>I need to pass a NSString to my other ViewController but it keeps returning nil.</p> <pre><code>//prepareForSegue is called from didSelectRowAtIndexPath - (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender { if([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"chat"]) { NSString *userName = (NSString *) [toUsersArray objectAtIndex:[self.chatsTableView indexPathForSelectedRow].row]; UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil]; ChatViewController *chatViewController = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"ChatViewController"]; //[chatViewController setChatWithUser:userName]; EVEN TRIED: chatViewController.chatWithUser = username; } } </code></pre> <p>Here is where I declare the NSString:</p> <pre><code>@interface ChatViewController : UIViewController &lt;UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource, MessageDelegate&gt; { UITextField *messageField; NSString *chatWithUser; UITableView *chatTableView; NSMutableArray *messagesArray; } @property (nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UITextField *messageField; @property (nonatomic,retain) NSString *chatWithUser; @property (nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UITableView *chatTableView; - (IBAction) sendMessage; @end </code></pre> <p>and here its still nil:</p> <pre><code> @synthesize chatWithUser; - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; //DO STUFF WITH chatWithUser; ADDED BREAKPOINT AND chatWithUser = nil; //ALSO TRIED viewWillAppear; } </code></pre> <p>What is the right way to pass data between these two View Controllers? My variables stay nil.</p>

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
