Hi, the best way is

1) to use the system plugin, which tries to find the place and add the icons
2) if this does not work, then you should edit the core code of the com_content component (article)
3) if this does not work, mostly there is an override by template, so template should be edited then (the file for displaying the article)

Hi, you need to detect which view it is (disable SEF for test and see which view it is). Then check if this view includes the changes you have made.

Hi, it is "view=article"
This means that for this view, the changes should be done in article view:
e.g.: components\com_content\views\article\tmpl\default.php (or in the override of template). So now you should check which view is working and which not.
