How to change my custom settings from code?

Question

This is my Root.plist file:

enter image description here

And this is visual presentation of that bundle: enter image description here

All I need to do is change the value of Latest clean to appropriate date. I do it in code:

let PBOOrdersLatestCleanKey = "PBOOrdersLatestCleanKey" let defaults = [PBOOrdersLatestCleanKey: PBODateFormatter(type: .DateAndTimeSimple).stringFromDate(NSDate())] NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().registerDefaults(defaults) NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().synchronize()

But it is now working. The settings are still the same. Why?

The problem is you didn't set the object to the specific key. You just registered the defaults but for undefined key. Just try

NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().setObject(PBODateFormatter(type: .DateAndTimeSimple).stringFromDate(NSDate()), forKey:PBOOrdersLatestCleanKey) NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().synchronize()

Good luck
