Adding Tags into Blog Category Layout

I want to display tags for articles next to the Category in the Aside section of the blog category layout.

In blog_item.php I see where the aside stuff is configured, but where do I then find the code to change joomla.content.info_block.block?

<!-- Aside -->
    <?php if ($topInfo || $icons) : ?>
    <aside class="article-aside clearfix">
      <?php if ($topInfo): ?>
      <?php echo JLayoutHelper::render('joomla.content.info_block.block', array('item' => $this->item, 'params' => $params, 'position' => 'above')); ?>
      <?php endif; ?>
      
      <?php if ($icons): ?>
      <?php echo JLayoutHelper::render('joomla.content.icons', array('item' => $this->item, 'params' => $params)); ?>
      <?php endif; ?>
    </aside>  
    <?php endif; ?>
    <!-- //Aside -->

Hi Peter,

Anything using JLayout is stored in the layouts folder (root) or overrided in the templates html/layouts folder.

The path to the correct file comes from the first parameter in the render method, so
joomla.content.info_block.block
would relate to the file
layouts/joomla/content/info_block/block.php

To stop the changes being wiped out in an update, you can copy the layout file to a new name and then change the render path to the new override file.

Regards,

Rob
