Adding New Users Part 2 Task 2

Question asks: Next, create a new PFUser variable named 'newUser' and initialize it using the 'user' class method from PFUser. Set the 'username' and 'password' properties of this user using the properties you just set.

I've written the following code: 

PFUser *newUser = [PFUser user];
newUser.username = username;
newUser.password = password;

What am I doing wrong here - I cannot figure it out!!

It says to set the username and password using the properties you just set . Try using 

newUser.username = self.username

And the same with password

I can't remember the exact question, but I think it was something as silly as username with an upper case N , so userName.

Hope that helps!

That didn't work. Any other ideas?

Late to the Party i know.... 

@implementation SignupViewController

- (IBAction)signup:(id)sender {
self.username = [self.usernameField.text stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
self.password = [self.passwordField.text stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];

PFUser *newUser = [PFUser user];
newUser.username = self.username;
newUser.password = self.password;
}
