Name is not displayed in UITableView - objective-c

Question

I am trying to do an example on https://github.com/singhson/Expandable-Collapsable-TableView where a storyboard is used. I am trying to do it using xib files. What changes should I make in cellForRowAtIndexPath so that I can get the desired output? I tried something like this
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier=#"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
if(cell==nil)
{
cell=[[UITableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
}
NSString *Title= [[self.itemsInTable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"Name"];
[self createCellWithTitle:Title image:[[self.itemsInTable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"Image name" ] indexPath:indexPath];
// return [self createCellWithTitle:Title image:[[self.itemsInTable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"Image name"] indexPath:indexPath];
return cell;
}
- (UITableViewCell*)createCellWithTitle:(NSString *)title image:(UIImage *)image indexPath:(NSIndexPath*)indexPath
{
NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
ExpandableTableViewCell* cell = [self.menuTableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
UIView *bgView = [[UIView alloc] init];
bgView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
cell.selectedBackgroundView = bgView;
cell.lblTitle.text = title;
cell.lblTitle.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
[cell setIndentationLevel:[[[self.itemsInTable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"level"] intValue]];
cell.indentationWidth = 25;
float indentPoints = cell.indentationLevel * cell.indentationWidth;
cell.contentView.frame = CGRectMake(indentPoints,cell.contentView.frame.origin.y,cell.contentView.frame.size.width - indentPoints,cell.contentView.frame.size.height);
NSDictionary *d1=[self.itemsInTable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] ;
if([d1 valueForKey:#"SubItems"])
{
cell.btnExpand.alpha = 1.0;
[cell.btnExpand addTarget:self action:#selector(showSubItems:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
}
else
{
cell.btnExpand.alpha = 0.0;
}
return cell;
}
Now I am getting the table which can be expanded or collapsed but I it doesn't show the name in table view. What other changes should I make for it to work? Please help.

My suggestions:
Use dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:forIndexPath: (to be noticed in case you did´t register the class) instead of dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: because the last one doesn´t crash if you didn't register a class or nib for the identifier, only returns nil.
Ensure you linked correctly " lblTitle" of your ExpandableTableViewCell class with the xib in the interface builder.
Check in this instruction : cell.lblTitle.text = title; if the title is nil or even if your lblTitle is nil.
Check if lblTitle is out of bounds (you are changing the contentView in this line: cell.contentView.frame = CGRectMake(indentPoints,cell.contentView.frame.origin.y,cell.contentView.frame.size.width - indentPoints,cell.contentView.frame.size.height);)
Are you registering ExpandableTableViewCell using ´registerClass:forCellReuseIdentifier:´ in viewDidLoad?
Hope it helps.
