How to pop from one view controller to another view controller
for (UIViewController *controller in self.navigationController.viewControllers)
{
if ([controller isKindOfClass:[nameOfYourViewControllerYouWantToNavigate class]])
{
[self.navigationController popToViewController:controller animated:YES];
break;
}
}
You can't pop to a new view controller (like you do with your secondViewController example).
When using a UINavigationController you
Add Controller to the stack with:
[self.navigationController pushViewController:<yournewViewController> animated:YES];
Pop to the previous one with :
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
Pop to a previous controller in the stack (Must have been pushed before) :
[self.navigationController popToViewController:<ViewControllerToPopTo> animated:YES];
Go back to the root Controller with
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
