title: Custom Xib Cell with Tableview isn't working
body: <p>I'm creating a slide out menu with xib files using the following tutorial:
  <a href="https://www.raywenderlich.com/78568/create-slide-out-navigation-panel-swift" rel="nofollow">https://www.raywenderlich.com/78568/create-slide-out-navigation-panel-swift</a></p>
  
  <p>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</p>
  
  <pre><code>    override func viewDidLoad() {
      super.viewDidLoad()
  
      var nib = UINib(nibName: "MenuCell", bundle: nil)
  
      tableView.registerNib(nib, forCellReuseIdentifier: "menucell")
      tableView.reloadData()
  
      print("count: \(animals.count)")
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and the actual cell</p>
  
  <pre><code>extension SidePanelViewController: UITableViewDataSource {
  
  func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -&gt; Int {
      return 1
  }
  
  func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -&gt; Int {
  
      return animals.count
  }
  
  func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -&gt; UITableViewCell {
  
      var cell:MenuTableViewCell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("menucell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! MenuTableViewCell
  
      cell.configureCell(animals[indexPath.row])
      return cell
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But the tableview is not showing the custom tableview cells with the title. Can anyone help me with this problem? </p>
