insert on first BST giving end of no-void function errror?

So I am attempting to learn how to code my first BST, and it is hard.... I am already having trouble with just a few lines of codes. the problem is in the insert, but I have included everything so that I could get some feedback on my style/other errors. I was suggested to use a pointer to pointer implementation, but we havent learned it yet, so I dont feel comfort/know how to code it yet. the

error is

This just says that you don't return something on every possible path. Try this:

bool Tree::insert(Node*& currentRoot, int k, string s)
{
  if(currentRoot == NULL){
    currentRoot = new Node;
    currentRoot->key = k;
    currentRoot->data = s;
    currentRoot->left = NULL;
    currentRoot->right = NULL;
    return true;
  }
  else if (currentRoot->key == k)
    return false;
  else if (currentRoot->key > k)
    return insert(currentRoot->left, k, s);
//  ^^^^^^
  else
    return insert (currentRoot->right,k, s);
//  ^^^^^^
}


How about:

bool Tree::insert(Node*& currentRoot, int k, string s)
{
  if(currentRoot == NULL){
    currentRoot = new Node;
    currentRoot->key = k;
    currentRoot->data = s;
    currentRoot->left = NULL;
    currentRoot->right = NULL;
    return true;
  }
  else if (currentRoot->key == k)
    return false;
  else if (currentRoot->key > k)
    insert(currentRoot->left, k, s);
  else
    insert (currentRoot->right,k, s);
  return true;
}

All branches need to return a value (boolean in this case).
