import { VinceService } from "../../app/services/vince.service";

this.items = response.data.children;
});
}
viewItem(item){
this.navCtrl.push(DetailsPage, {
item:item
});
}
}

@Aravind was able to help me solve this problem like this: Vince.html got a typo error "viewItem (item.dat)" So he changed this:
<button ion-button clear item-right (click)="viewItem (item.dat)">View</button>
:
<button ion-button clear item-right (click)="viewItem(item)">View</button>
Further in details.html where he changed this:
<ion-title>{{item.title}}</ion-title>
:
<ion-title>{{item?.data?.title}}</ion-title>
This also works:
<ion-title>{{item.data.title}}</ion-title>
So far so good, this solves problems, hope it helps someone else.
