Present while a presentation is in progress? Trying to display a new view after facebook login with parse.

Question

I'm trying to present a UITableView I've already made for users to put in data and save in parse. I'm pretty sure I don't present the navigation view.

When I log in, I get the error:

Checklists[4516:c07] Warning: Attempt to present <ChecklistsViewController: 0x10525e90> 
on <UINavigationController: 0x9648270> while a presentation is in progress!

Thanks for your help.

#import "LoginViewController.h"
#import "ChecklistsViewController.h"
#import "SetupViewController.h"
#import <Parse/Parse.h>

@interface LoginViewController ()

@end

@implementation LoginViewController

- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
    self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
    if (self) {
        // Custom initialization
    }
    return self;
}

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    [super viewDidAppear:animated];

    PFLogInViewController *login = [[PFLogInViewController alloc] init];
    login.fields = PFLogInFieldsFacebook;
    // Need to set the delegate to be this controller.
    login.delegate = self;
    login.signUpController.delegate = self; //signUpController is a property on the login view controller
    [self presentModalViewController:login animated:NO];

}

    - (void)logInViewController:(PFLogInViewController *)logInController didLogInUser:(PFUser *)user
{
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
    NSLog(@"Successfully logged in.");
    ChecklistsViewController *controller = [[ChecklistsViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
    controller.modalTransitionStyle = UITableViewStylePlain;
    [self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];

}

This method has been deprecated for a good while

     presentModalViewController:animated:

You should use this instead

    presentViewController:animated:completion:

Same goes for this

    dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:

Now we use this

    dismissViewControllerAnimated:completion:

When we don't want a completion block, we just set it to nil.

But in your case, a completion block could fix your problem... it ensures a correct sequence of events, i.e. the presenting won't take place until the dismissing is complete.

    - (void)logInViewController:(PFLogInViewController *)logInController 
                   didLogInUser:(PFUser *)user
{
    [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
        NSLog(@"Successfully logged in.");
        ChecklistsViewController *controller = 
              [[ChecklistsViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
        controller.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
        [self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];
    }];

}

[NB - modalTransitionStyle was incorrect in your original code, I have changed that also. Thanks to Daniel G for pointing this out]
