hide back button when tab bar controller is added in navigation controller

Question

I have a navigation controller (navC) and I have a view controller (ViewC) which is a view pushed from root controller. I have hidden back button for ViewC with code:

[[self navigationItem] setHidesBackButton:YES];

I have pushed tab bar controller (tabbarC) after ViewC . In the view controller associated with the first tab in tabbarC I have tried hiding the back button with the code:

 [[[self tabBarController] navigationItem] setHidesBackButton:YES];

But the back button is still visible When i click it; it disappears... can any one help me hiding the back button for all the views in the tabbarC.

Answer 1

In your first view that will appear when you push to your tabbarviewcontroller set this

-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{
      [super viewWillAppear:animated];
      self.tabBarController.navigationItem.hidesBackButton=YES;
}

Answer 2

In viewDidLoad of ViewC do this:

[self.navigationController.navigationItem setHidesBackButton:YES];

Also tab selected view controller's viewWillAppear method

[self.navigationController.navigationItem setHidesBackButton:YES];

Answer 3

In your view just write this line..it will hide back button .. tested

-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    [self.navigationItem setHidesBackButton:YES];
}
