Adding icon to latest post by "specific rank"

[Mr Frosty]

Hey there,

I was wondering if it was possible to add icons to specific ranks who posted on a thread?

<span class="forum-stat forum-stat--latest with-post">{$lastpost_date} </br > By {$lastpost_profilelink} </span>

this bit shows the users name

{$lastpost_profilelink}

Is there a way to check if that users is lets say an admin and then add an icon next to its name?
Now i know a fair bit of css and i know i can just add styling to:

.with-post a { } // or with an other class, etc..

but that would add the icon to every last user that posted, and I want to be able to have diffrent icons depending on their ranks.

This is the idea, but then depending on their ranks instead of hardcoded for all latest posts


Thanks in advance!
