Initially I was just trying the method   -  UIView   tableView  UITableView   tableView viewForFooterInSection  NSInteger section   but after using this along with   -  CGFloat tableView  UITableView   tableView heightForFooterInSection  NSInteger section   problem was solved  Sample Program-  -  CGFloat tableView  UITableView   tableView heightForFooterInSection  NSInteger section       return 30 0f     -  UIView   tableView  UITableView   tableView viewForFooterInSection  NSInteger section       UIView  sampleView     UIView alloc  init       sampleView frame   CGRectMake SCREEN WIDTH 2  5  60  4       sampleView backgroundColor    UIColor blackColor       return sampleView      and include UITableViewDelegate protocol    interface TestViewController   UIViewController  lt UITableViewDelegate gt

instead of   self theTable tableFooterView   tableFooter    try    self theTable tableFooterView addSubview tableFooter

You need to implement the UITableViewDelegate method  -  UIView   tableView  UITableView   tableView viewForFooterInSection  NSInteger section   and return the desired view  e g  a UILabel with the text you d like in the footer  for the appropriate section of the table

These samples work well  You can check section and then return a height to show or hide section  Don t forget to extend your viewcontroller from UITableViewDelegate   Objective-C  -  CGFloat tableView  UITableView   tableView heightForFooterInSection  NSInteger section       if  section    0                   to hide footer for section 0          return 0 0            else                  show footer for every section except section 0          return HEIGHT YOU WANT           -  UIView   tableView  UITableView   tableView viewForFooterInSection  NSInteger section       UIView  footerView     UIView alloc  init       footerView backgroundColor    UIColor blackColor       return footerView      Swift  func tableView   tableView  UITableView  viewForFooterInSection section  Int  - gt  UIView        let footerView   UIView       footerView backgroundColor   UIColor black     return footerView    func tableView   tableView  UITableView  heightForFooterInSection section  Int  - gt  CGFloat       if section    0              to hide footer for section 0         return 0 0       else              show footer for every section except section 0         return HEIGHT YOU WANT

I m specifically seeing in my code that   self theTable tableFooterView   tableFooter    works and    self theTable tableFooterView addSubview tableFooter     does not work   So stick to the former and look elsewhere for the possible bug   HTH

If you don t prefer the sticky bottom effect i would put it in viewDidLoad    https   stackoverflow com a 38176479 4127670

I had the same problem but I replaced the following line in my header    interface MyController   UIViewTableViewController  lt UITableViewDelegate  UITableViewDataSource gt    with this line and it works as expected    interface RequestViewController   UIViewController  lt UITableViewDelegate  UITableViewDataSource gt    Notice the UIViewController  Good luck

I know that this is a pretty old question but I ve just met same issue  I don t know exactly why but it seems that tableFooterView can be only an instance of UIView  not  kind of  but  is member      So in my case I ve created new UIView object  for example wrapperView  and add my custom subview to it    In your case  chamge your code from   CGRect footerRect   CGRectMake 0  0  320  40   UILabel  tableFooter     UILabel alloc  initWithFrame footerRect   tableFooter textColor    UIColor blueColor   tableFooter backgroundColor    self theTable backgroundColor   tableFooter opaque   YES  tableFooter font    UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize 15   tableFooter text     test   self theTable tableFooterView   tableFooter   tableFooter release     to   CGRect footerRect   CGRectMake 0  0  320  40   UIView  wrapperView     UIView alloc  initWithFrame footerRect    UILabel  tableFooter     UILabel alloc  initWithFrame footerRect   tableFooter textColor    UIColor blueColor   tableFooter backgroundColor    self theTable backgroundColor   tableFooter opaque   YES  tableFooter font    UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize 15   tableFooter text     test     wrapperView addSubview tableFooter    self theTable tableFooterView   wrapperView   wrapperView release    tableFooter release     Hope it helps  It works for me
