Ribbit friends List

Hey guys, how do I omit my own username from showing up on the editFriendsViewController table list, I have set up my app where you click on the username and it pops to a detail profile view,but when I click my own username it crashes. So I want to omit my own username from the table.

The best way to do this is the adding one line of code into your query on 'allUsers' in EditFriendsViewController.m

PFQuery *query = [PFUser query];
// New line of code below
[query whereKey:@"username" notEqualTo:[[PFUser currentUser] username]];
[query orderByAscending:@"username"];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error)

Basically, all this does is omit any result where a string in the username field on Parse is equal to the person using the app's username.

I hope this helps! I've literally just implemented this myself, so I thought I'd share.
