I am having a lot of trouble loading a CustomImageView: UIImageView in a detail viewController based on the selectedIndexPath of a collectionViewCell. I have successfully passed and loaded the UILabels and UITextViews, but am not able to load the CustomImageView:UIImageView from that same selectedIndexPath using the same process and code logic. I believe it has something to do with clearing or resetting my image cache, but not sure where or exactly what code to execute to do this. Sorry for any excess code, just want to be thorough. Thanks for any help or direction!
