UISearchDisplayController doesn't fire didSelectRowAtIndexPath

Question

I have a UIViewController with a UISearchDisplayController in it. I have it showing the search results tableview, but clicking any cells never fires didSelectRowAtIndexPath:

#pragma mark - UITableViewDelegate
-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didDeselectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    NSLog(@"did select row");
}

I've seen these relevant questions:

• Why won't my UISearchDisplayController fire the didSelectRowAtIndexPath method?
• didSelectRowAtIndexPath does not work when uitableview datasource is filtered

but I'm not making the same mistake. The view controller implements UITableViewDelegate and UISearchDisplayDelegate. The UISearchDisplayController delegate and searchResultDelegate are hooked up to the view controller in the storyboard. But just to be sure I did the following in viewDidLoad:

self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsDelegate = self; 
self.searchDisplayController.delegate = self; 

I've even tried:

self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView.delegate = self;

The searchResultsTableView is the only UITableView in this view controller.

The code you show in your question is didDeselect, not didSelect. So, if that's what you actually have in your code, that's the problem.
