Java Android: How to find a fragment inside navigation drawer fragment?

Issue

I created a navigation drawer and on the top I would like to place a fragment containing information about the logged in user (kind of like what google apps have.) I made the fragment and put it inside the navigation drawer and that works fine, but I need to pass it data from the parent fragment. Thus I tried using

 (UserOverviewFragment)getChildFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.user_fragment);

But that returns null everytime. How can I get the Fragment object? Thank you.

Solution

You need something called RecyclerView. Follow this excellent guide to do it.
