Make only certain sections of UITableView editable

Question

I have a UITableView with multiple sections, and I want to make only one section editable (swipe to delete).

I have a feeling I have to do something in the willBeginEditingRowAtIndexPathdelegate method, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Answer 1

Use

- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

return YES for allowing editable, otherwise NO.

Answer 2

You can use the below function for what you look for:

-(BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

Return YES to whichever row you want to edit.
