ios - instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier - Storyboard id set but still not working

Question

I have to created a segue programmatically however when I click on the button the view controller does not change to the next, Storyboard ID is set and still not working. Am I missing any other checks in order to make this work?

Please see code below:

EntryViewController *entryController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"go"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:entryController animated:YES];

its driving me mad. Thanks

Inside my viewDidLoad I have placed the button which calls goldStarOpen:

UIButton *btnTwo = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
btnTwo.frame = CGRectMake(250, 20, 40, 40);
[btnTwo addTarget:self action:@selector(goldStarOpen) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[btnTwo setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"GoldStar.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.view addSubview:btnTwo];

Inside goldStarOpen I have code which is almost identical to yours.

- (void)goldStarOpen
{
    UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:
                                @"MainStoryboard" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
    UIViewController *myController = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"GoldStar"];
    [self presentViewController:myController animated:YES completion:nil];
}

goldStarOpen activates a ViewController in the storyboard.

You may need to set the Storyboard ID of the View Controller you are trying to load. This is located in the inspector, just below where you assign a custom class to your view controller.
