textFieldShouldReturn not working

I have two classes. In one of them, the return key (for the virtual keyboard) works perfectly. In the other, it does not. As far as I can tell, the code is pretty much identical. Can someone help me figure out why my its not firing on the one that doesn't work?

This one works:

class ChangePasswordVC: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {


    func textFieldShouldReturn(textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
        if textField == self.tempPasswordTextField {
            self.changeTempPasswordTextField.becomeFirstResponder()
        }
        else if textField == self.changeTempPasswordTextField {
            self.confirmChangeTempPasswordTextField.becomeFirstResponder()
        }
        else  {
            changePasssword()
        }

        return true
    }
}

This one does not work:

class ResetPasswordVC: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {
func textFieldShouldReturn(textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
        if textField == self.emailTextField {
            print("go button tapped")
            submitEmailForPasswordReset()
        }
        return true
    }

}

I put the print statement in to see if it fires at all but it doesn't print anything to the console.

You have to set UITextField delegate either using StoryBoard/XIB or using code. It will work fine when UITextField delegate assigned correctly.

You have forgot probably some of the delegate settings, check for:

    self.tempPasswordTextField.delegate = self
    self.changeTempPasswordTextField.delegate = self
    self.confirmChangeTempPasswordTextField.delegate = self
    self.emailTextField.delegate = self

In your code especially check the last (self.emailTextField).
