How to make a PFQueryTableView work inside a UIViewController

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to get the benefits of the PFQueryTableViewController to work inside of a a regular UIViewController that has a TableView embedded in it. Because apparently I can't load data from parse onto my TableView. It just pops up as a blank tableView with none of my information from Parse in it unless the code is ran on a UITableViewController, then it has no problems. But I'm trying to get my program to run on a Table View thats in a UIViewController. And whenever I change the @Interface from- @interface MainWall: UIViewController to @interface MainWall :PFQueryTableViewController, the app crashes.

So my question is, is there anyway around this? I read a little about subclass, subviews and Container View Controller but no one actually showed how to create them besides Parse's AnyWall code, which was extremely confusing.

You are correct in that you will have to use a container view controller. Here is a good link with a container view tutorial
