how can i modify my code so that users can pick another mood because as it is now the good mood is default and does not change even if i take on any of the other moods when putting in an entry. Ash Furrow

Treehouse Guest TeacherI believe I finally found the problem. To quickly reproduce the error, I went to the final video in this series and downloaded Diary-Stage6-Video5.zip. Run the app and add some entries. No matter what mood you select, the main list view will always display a good mood.
The problem lies in the THEntryViewController.m file. For me, this is line 110 within the insertDiaryEntry method.
- (void)insertDiaryEntry {
THCoreDataStack *coreDataStack = [THCoreDataStack defaultStack];
THDiaryEntry *entry = [NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"THDiaryEntry" inManagedObjectContext:coreDataStack.managedObjectContext];
entry.body = self.textView.text;
entry.date = [[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970];
entry.imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(self.pickedImage, 0.75);
entry.location = self.location;
self.entry.mood = self.pickedMood; // <----- THIS LINE
[coreDataStack saveContext];
}
The entry isn't being saved properly. This should be:
entry.mood = self.pickedMood;
It's possible I missed something in the series. However, I don't ever remember this being addressed and I had this bug in my final version of the app and the final project files I downloaded just a few minutes ago.

2,198 PointsI had the same problem and answers above didn't help me. So I solved it myself! (:<br /> The problem was in "updateDiaryEntry" method. Ash didn't cover this in the video (that's why all his entries have "Good" mood).<br /> So everything you need to do is to make this method to save mood, not just body text:<br />
- (void) updateDiaryEntry {
self.entry.body = self.textField.text;
self.entry.mood = self.pickedMood; // <-- This line!
JDCoreDaraStack *coreDataStack = [JDCoreDaraStack defaultStack];
[coreDataStack saveContext];
}
I hope it will help you as well.

24,757 PointsHere is the code:
-(void)configureCellForEntry:(MavDiaryEntry *)entry {
self.bodyLabel.text = entry.body;
self.locationLabel.text = entry.location;
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEEE, MMMM d yyyy"];
NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:entry.date];
self.dateLabel.text = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
if (entry.imageData) {
self.mainImageView.image = [UIImage imageWithData:entry.imageData];
}else {
self.mainImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"icn_noimage"];
}
//MOOD SETTINGS:
if (entry.mood == MavDiaryEntryMoodGood) {
self.moodImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"icn_happy"];
} else if (entry.mood == MavDiaryEntryMoodAverage) {
self.moodImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"icn_average"];
} else if (entry.mood == MavDiaryEntryMoodBad) {
self.moodImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"icn_bad"];
}
self.mainImageView.layer.cornerRadius = CGRectGetWidth(self.mainImageView.frame) / 2.0f;
if (entry.location.length > 0) {
self.locationLabel.text = entry.location;
}else {
self.locationLabel.text = @"Somewhere on Earth";
}
}

Treehouse Guest TeacherI just completed the last video thinking this functionality would be implemented and it wasn't. To double check my code I downloaded the final project files from the last video and ran the app. Moods do not change no matter what selection you make. If it was covered, that code didn't make it into the final project files.

Treehouse Guest TeacherHi there! I think I addressed that in the video right after that (it's been a few months since I recorded it). Check it out and let me know if that doesn't work.
