Answer 1

1. Make sure you set the identifier of the viewcontroller, lets say "GroupProfileViewController"
2. Make sure this code is NOT in viewDidLoad(). If you have, consider doing this in viewDidAppear()

Present the code like this example:

if let storyboard = storyboard{
   let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "GroupProfileViewController") as! GroupProfileViewController
   self.present(vc, animated: true)
}
