 * Hello,
 * We are importing subscribers with our own code using the helpers in the plugin.
   
   We detect a bug when inserting new user_list. When we do :
 *     ```
       $modelUL = WYSIJA::get('user_list', 'model');
       $ret = $modelUL->insert($user_list);
       ```
   
 * $ret variable always return false because insert return is affected to $wpdb-
   >insert_id (helpers/model.php:697). For normal tables this is expected return
   value but this table doesn’t have primary_key so we suggest in this case to not
   return insert_id but $wpdb->num_rows instead;
    So the fix is to replace the line
   697 of helpers/model.php file to :
 *     ```
       $resultSave = $this->wpdb->insert_id === false
           ? $resultSave
           : $this->wpdb->insert_id;
       ```
   
 * Before this line $resultSave contains $wpdb->num_rows provided by WP_DB::query
   return value.
 * Sincerely,
