Trouble adding markup in a node with hook_node_view()

Question

I'm trying to add a piece of markup with a field in hook_node_view(). It's a little thumb icon for a music site, and I want to overlay this image over another field image (which I'll do with CSS). However, it's not rendering, and I feel pretty confident that I'm going about it the right way. Here is my addition to the node array:

$node->content['like'] = array(
            '#theme' => 'image',
            '#path' => '/sites/default/files/likeimg.png',
            '#alt' => 'like',
            '#prefix' => '<div class="like">',
            '#suffix' => '</div>',
            '#weight' => -1,
            '#attributes' => array(
                'class' => array('like-img')
            )
        );

What am I missing? I am using Display Suite with fields in blocks, and Omega 3.

Answer 1

Do you call the render function of your like content inside the node.tpl.php ?

print render($content['like']);

Answer 2

hook_node_view() is only called within modules that define node content types (ie. through hook_node_info().

What you want to use is hook_node_view_alter(), and render the content in your template file like Mike Vranckx suggested.
