SWRevealController button not firing the revealToggle: action

I am using SWRevealController in my application and have followed the instructions described here: http://www.appcoda.com/ios-programming-sidebar-navigation-menu/

However it appears that the sidebarButton does not fire the toggle

I have set it up as follows:

Initial View Controller class has been set to SWRevealViewController

Segue has been created linking it to the NavigationViewController and the segue has been given the identifier sw_front

I have a menuViewController that is subclassed from UITableViewController

I created a segue from the Initial view Controller whose class is SWRevealViewController to the menuViewController and gave that segue an identifier sw_rear

In mainViewController.m I have imported SWRevealViewController.h and I have set the menu button 

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIBarButtonItem *sidebarButton;

In mainViewController in the viewDidLoad method I have the following:

SWRevealViewController *revealViewController = [self revealViewController];

if ( revealViewController )
{
    [self.sidebarButton setTarget:self.revealViewController];
    [self.sidebarButton setAction: @selector(revealToggle:)];
    [self.view addGestureRecognizer:self.revealViewController.panGestureRecognizer];
}

When I run the application and put a breakpoint at the point where I am setting the target and Action for button I can see that they are being assigned.

However when I click the button the revealViewController.revealToggle method is not firing.

I was wondering if maybe I need to set up the event that fires it - as in for a touchupInside event. But I've looked through all the sample code https://github.com/appcoda/Slideout-Sidebar-Demo/tree/master/SidebarDemo and can't see where they have done that. I'm at a loss to figure out why the revealToggle action is not firing.

Many thanks for any suggestions

You need to put the button on the action on @property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIBarButtonItem *sidebarButton;

enter image description here

You can see an example of this one https://github.com/John-Lluch/SWRevealViewController/tree/master/RevealControllerStoryboardExample2
