iOS 7 Custom UINavigationBar TitleView moves when Pushing or Popping new View Controller

// Set a label to the nav bar
THLabel *titleLabel = [[THLabel alloc] init];

What worked for me was to create a variable in the view controller that holds your desired title view then initialize it in viewDidLoad. Then you can set that view to the self.navigationItem.titleView in viewWillAppear and it should display properly. No need for setting autoResizeMask, or rightBarButtons, etc.

Example:

class ViewController {
    var myTitleImage: UIImageView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        myTitleImage = UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 25, height: 25))
        myTitleImage.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
        myTitleImage.image = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "my_title_image")
        // etc...
    }

    override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillAppear(animated)
        self.navigationItem.titleView = self.myTitleImage
    }    
}
