Trouble passing results from the model to the controller

Whoa, great response, thanks guys.

Lab Technicians answer works, and just to double check I understood the code, I converted it back to longhand

Code:

if ($query->num_rows > 0) {
        
            return TRUE;
            
        }
        
        else {
        
            return FALSE;
            
        }

I shall do my checks in the model, makes sense to just return a boolean. Cheers!
