Illegal configuration. Connection "cell" cannot have a prototype object as its destination

Question

I have 2 errors

"Illegal configuration. Connection "cell" cannot have a prototype object as
its destination" 

Connections dont duplicate, cells are empty, without other controls in them. I try to clean project and rebuild it, but it didnt help me. How can I fix it? Thank you

Answer 1

Are you trying to link outlets of the cells (or elements of the cells) directly to the view controller? That would be a problem.

If you want your table view to always have the same content, you can change its content to "static cells" in the storyboard, and then you can link it like that.

If you want the table view cells to change dynamically, you cannot do it that way. You need to create a UITableViewCell subclass for your cells, and create the outlets there.

If this doesn't help at all, please explain your problem a bit better.

Answer 2

You probably have an outlet from something like your view controller that's connected to a prototype cell in a table view. An outlet is a to-one relationship. The cell is going to be instantiated many times, so this doesn't make sense, and is an error.
