xF2 Template Modification New post & reply buttons in threads

[BattleKing]

You can use this to show it members of certain usergroups. Simply edit the "in_array" below to add usergroups to it.
This will add a "reply" button next to the newthread button.

Go to: ACP --> Template --> thread_view and find:
<xf:breadcrumb source="$forum.getBreadcrumbs()" />

Add this code directly below that line:

<xf:if is="{$xf.visitor.user_id} AND in_array({$xf.visitor.user_group_id}, [2, 3, 18, 4, 5])">
    <xf:pageaction>
        <xf:button href="{{ link('forums/create-thread', $forum) }}" class="button--primary" icon="write" overlay="true" rel="nofollow">
            {{ phrase('post_thread') }}
        </xf:button>
        <xf:button href="{{ link('threads/reply', $thread) }}" data-xf-click="overlay" class="button--primary" icon="reply" rel="nofollow">
            {{ phrase('post_reply') }}
        </xf:button>
    </xf:pageaction>
</xf:if>
