Custom Xib Cell with Tableview isn't working

I'm creating a slide out menu with xib files using the following tutorial: https://www.raywenderlich.com/78568/create-slide-out-navigation-panel-swift

Now I'm at the point to make the xib tableview view with the custom tableview cell. Reading several questions on stackoverflow I came to the following code

    override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    var nib = UINib(nibName: "MenuCell", bundle: nil)

    tableView.registerNib(nib, forCellReuseIdentifier: "menucell")
    tableView.reloadData()

    print("count: \(animals.count)")
}

and the actual cell

extension SidePanelViewController: UITableViewDataSource {

func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
    return 1
}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

    return animals.count
}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    var cell:MenuTableViewCell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("menucell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! MenuTableViewCell

    cell.configureCell(animals[indexPath.row])
    return cell
}

But the tableview is not showing the custom tableview cells with the title. Can anyone help me with this problem?

Probably you have forgot to set this parameters:

tableView.delegate = self
tableView.datasource = self

As explained in comments:

Correct your class declaration like this for example: 

class myClass: SidePanelViewController , UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate { .. }

Try to cross check the following because you have added the xib explicitly in your bundle as your class name and xib name differs

Cross check 1

You have mentioned you custom class MenuTableViewCell in Identity Inspector window

enter image description here

Cross check 2

You have mention the cell identifier in the Attributes Inspector window as enter image description here
