hiding title of navigationbar

Question

my first view named "back". I need to hidden the title of the navigationbar because I have my custom navigation bar.

I try with this code but it didn't work!

self.title = @"back";
self.navigationController.navigationItem.titleView.hidden = YES;

Answer 1

Just faced the same issue, and doing:

self.title = @"YourTitle";
self.navigationItem.titleView = [[UIView alloc] init];

Did the trick. The next view will have the back button labeled with YourTitle but in the first one, the title won't be shown.

Answer 2

If you want to hide entire navigation bar and if you want to use your own navigation bar, you can first hide navigation controller's navigation bar.

[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES];

or if you want to only hide title you can do

self.title = @"";

or if you have used custom title view for navigation bar, you can do

self.navigationItem.titleView.hidden = YES;

or if you want to hide back bar button item, you can do

self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = TRUE;

Answer 3

Having the same issue, I just create a fake UIView to populate the titleView property and hide it :

UIView *fakeTitleView = [[UIView alloc] init];
fakeTitleView.hidden = YES;
[self.navigationItem setTitleView:fakeTitleView];
[fakeTitleView release];

Hope it could help.

Answer 4

Another option which preserves the back button:

[self.navigationController.navigationBar setTitleTextAttributes:@{
    NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor clearColor]
}];
