Making notes visible when using a Tumblr theme that doesn't show them

Question

I have just created a Tumblr blog using the Indy theme. After creating a new post I noticed that the notes do not show up, just a short line. I tried searching for an option to make the notes visible, but I could not find it. As it was pointed out, apparently not all themes display notes.

How do I make the notes visible if using the Indy theme?

What changes do I have to make to its HTML?

You need to edit your theme and add the code responsible for including notes.

For the standard display, add {PostNotes} in the block responsible for displaying a single post, e.g. in {block:Posts} … {/block:Posts}.
