How to hook into the Showthread and remove the post bit?

$plugins->add_hook("showthread", "myPlugin_showthread");

if some setting is met, how can i remove the 

{$posts}

{$first_post}{$posts}

Can someone move it to the plugins?

function myPlugin_showthread(&$posts)
{}

is this correct?

No, your code doesn't make any sense.

What I need to do is

Check for usergroups, where only admins and moderators can see replies

If is_user(3,4,6) {posts}


So  how do pass variable to template
Nb I am on mobile

Well, you can use the is_member() function to check groups and the is_moderator() function to check whether the user is moderator on X forum or globally.

And what can we do about that? I'm not sure what you're trying to say... Only you can control and broaden your own knowledge.

First you need to learn PHP, at least basics: https://secure.php.net/manual/
MySQL too: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/
And basics such as HTML/CSS.

Then you can start writing basic plugins: http://docs.mybb.com/
You can also check other plugins/core to learn how something works in MyBB.

First of all $first_post is not a MyBB variable, it is a xThreads one, is not it?

You need to hook at showthread_start/end for whatever you are trying to do.

Check my plugin for an example.

Although my plugin does use a dirty method I wouldn't really recommend.
