K2 display module on K2 Category and not K2 Item

Hi. I'm new to Metamod so still figuring it out.

I have the following set up:

Main menu
>Child menu 1 (USA)
>>K2 Category 1
>Child menu 2 (CANADA)
>>K2 Category 1
>Child menu 3 (NEW-ZEALAND)
>>K2 Category 1
>Child menu 4 (AUSTRALIA)
>>K2 Category 1

The K2 Categories are all the same with the same items they just have a different message (module) that appears before the item list i.e. "Welcome from the USA", "Welcome from Canada" etc...

I want the relevant message module to only appear on the relevant item list page, however it also appears on the item page also. Even more annoyingly the if you click an item from the Canada list it shows the USA module.

Is there a recipe to only show on the item list page? Thanks!

Found it...

if (

$option == "com_k2"

and $view == "itemlist"

and (JRequest::getVar('layout') == "category" or JRequest::getVar('task') == "category")

) return XXX; /* Replace XXX with the module ID*/

Looks good! I'm actually working on a JomGenius extension for K2 to make this sort of thing easier. Will release that for MetaMod and Chameleon in the next couple of weeks.

Cheers,
Stephen
