Performing segue with UINavigationController (without IBAction)

It's easier to show you a drawing and then explain.

enter image description here

Dashboard Storyboard

I have 2 separate UIViewControllers (i've included just one in the drawing, the other is irrelevant) embedded in container view called ContainerViewController.

Post Storyboard

NewPostViewController shows a UIButton that presents TextPostViewController. As you can see, all of them are embedded in UINavigationControllers. Now, once the completion block of the new post is being called, I have to present the ContainerViewController and it needs to handle it's own logic. The problem is that it's embedded in UINavigationController and once I present it, the UITaBbar is hidden.

I tried to do this:

self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "TextPostToNavContainerVC", sender: nil)

The transition is successful but I'm losing the UITabBar, even though in the DashboardViewController and the ContainerViewController I called: 

override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidAppear(animated)
    tabBarController?.tabBar.isHidden = false

}

What am I doing wrong or is there are better way to do that?

You should instantiate the tab bar controller. not the view controller. Imagine you're putting a initial view controller ahead of your tab bar controller. Making your tab bar not being pushed

If I undestand it correctly. You are doing this Segue connect to a view controller But you should actually do this Segue connected to a tab bar controller

You can try to add it as a child to control it's frame like this 

let textPost = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "containerID") as! TextPostToNavContainerVC
textPost.view.frame =  CGRect(x:20,y:0,width:self.view.frame.width,height:self.view.frame.height-50)
self.view.addSubview(nvc.view)
self.addChildViewController(textPost)
textPost.didMove(toParentViewController: self)
