I have spent some time trying to figure out how to add header/footer to my recyclerview but it is not working. the footer shows the but header and list item does not show on the emulator. My adapter

}

mDataset.add(position, item);
notifyItemInserted(position);
}

mDataset = myDataset;
}
@Override
public MyAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {

Log.i("info", String.valueOf(viewType));
if (viewType == TYPE_ITEM) {

I have checked through the code to know where the problem is but I cant figure it out. I am getting the data from my dataset but it does not display on the emulator.
I think there is a small issue in position of onBindViewHolder
Can you change your code like this and give it a try.
else if (holder instanceof ItemViewHolder) {
ItemViewHolder itemView = (ItemViewHolder) holder;
itemView.tvPrice.setText(mDataset.get(position - 1).getPrice());
itemView.tvProblems.setText(mDataset.get(position - 1).getProblems());
}
The issue with your code is you are returning the same viewholder you should change the code like this in onCreateViewHolder
View itemView;
Log.i("info", String.valueOf(viewType));
if (viewType == TYPE_ITEM) {
//Inflating recycle view item layout
itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.activity_problems, parent, false);
ViewHolder vh = new ViewHolder(itemView);
return vh;
} else if (viewType == TYPE_HEADER) {
//Inflating header view
itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.problem_recycler_header, parent, false);
HeaderViewHolder vh = new HeaderViewHolder(itemView);
return vh;
} else if (viewType == TYPE_FOOTER) {
//Inflating footer view
itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.problem_recycler_footer, parent, false);
FooterViewHolder vh = new FooterViewHolder(itemView);
return vh;
}
