Make sure on your blog you have installed Awesome Font so that the icon can appear3. Next, find and change the <data:post.body/> code with the code below
In the template you will find some code <data:post.body/> depending on the template used, try one by one until the related article appears in the article page
<div expr:id='"post1" + data:post.id'/>
<div class='related-simplify'>
<b:if cond='data:post.labels'>
<b:loop values='data:post.labels' var='label'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<script expr:src='"/feeds/posts/default/-/" + data:label.name + "?alt=json-in-script&callback=related_results_labels&max-results=3"' type='text/javascript'/>
</b:if>
</b:loop>
</b:if>
<h4>Also read</h4>
<script type='text/javascript'>
removeRelatedDuplicates();
printRelatedLabels();
</script>
</div>
<div expr:id='"post2" + data:post.id'><p><data:post.body/></p></div>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var obj0=document.getElementById("post1<data:post.id/>");
var obj1=document.getElementById("post2<data:post.id/>");
var s=obj1.innerHTML;
var t=s.substr(0,s.length/2);
var r=t.lastIndexOf("<br>");
if(r>0) {obj0.innerHTML=s.substr(0,r);obj1.innerHTML=s.substr(r+4);}
</script>
