Its a common mistake, you are adding the target wrongly to UITextField, instead you must set target to where you implement the method userNamelongPressAction

this code is assuming that you have implemented userNamelongPressAction method in this class context

override func awakeFromNib() {
    super.awakeFromNib()
    let tap = UILongPressGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(userNamelongPressAction))
    self.addGestureRecognizer(tap)
}

Hope this help
