5,647 PointsStrange issue continues..
At various times, it seems like actions I take in the storyboard don't effect the app running in the simulator.
For this step, the happened like this:
- Added the navigation controller
- Added the web view controller
- Added my segue (paying close attention to the video)
When I ran my code, I did not see the arrow to the right of each table cell, and clicking did nothing. I troubleshooted for a few minutes changing variable names, deleting storyboard elements and re-adding, and nothing changed in the simulator. Finally, I deleted everything from my storyboard, ran the code, and it still worked. Something is wrong, right? That code shouldn't have run with nothing in the storyboard.

When you build a new scene on the storyboard with your view controllers you need to define its behaviour with your class i.e. adding all outlets and actions. You still need to hook up your class to the view controller in the identity inspector.
If something is wrong with Xcode then try to reinstall it.

5,647 PointsDo you mean in the "custom class" area of the identity inspector? I specified all my custom classes for the table view controller and the new view controller (Web View Controller). I also filled in the segue identifier.
I tried reinstalling xCode also, which didn't seem to do anything.
Thanks for the suggestions though!

5,647 PointsI think I got it! I figured that since my storyboard changes weren't registering, it had something to do with the project recognizing the storyboard. So I went into the blog reader project settings -> general, changed the name of my storyboard (from Storyboard.storyboard to sb.storyboard), and re-selected it under "main interface." Now everything seems to be connected! Even other mysterious bugs I hadn't mentioned.
It may also be related to this issue.
