How can I hide a section and its rows in a dynamic uitableview

Question

I have a dynamic table view with sections that I'd like to reuse in other scenarios, however only have certain sections shown. Is there a way I can hide an entire section so that my indexPath.section logic doesn't need to be changed when certain sections aren't shown? I know there's

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
    if indexPath.section == 0 {
        return 0
    } 
    return 60.0
}

to hide rows, I use that logic in a separate static tableView. But that still leaves the section header. Is there a way to do this where its seamless, as in hidden sections leave no blank space?

Answer 1

Based on the second response to this question, you should be able to do this by returning nil from the titleForHeaderInSection method, and 0 from the numberOfRowsInSection method for whichever section you want hidden.
