How can you get the selected rows from a UITableView?

So I've written this code to put a checkmark beside a row that I want selected because I want multiple selected rows

UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:path];

if (cell.accessoryType == UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark) {
    cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
} else {
    cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
}

but when I use the method:

NSArray *selectedIndexPaths = [self.LightsView indexPathsForSelectedRows];

it only gets the last row that I clicked on. Is the checkmark not selecting it?

For the indexPathsForSelectedRows: method to work properly, you have to configure the table view to allow multiple selection of cells:

tableView.allowsMultipleSelection = YES;
