XF 1.1 How make something show in a thread only if the have posts in it.

How do I make something show in a thread to user only if the user has posts in the thread?

I'm assuming you're planning on showing it above the posts? If it's not within the posts, you could try this:

<xen:foreach loop="$posts" value="$posted">
    <xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} == {$posted.user_id}">
        <xen:set var="$hasPosted">true</xen:set>
    </xen:if>
</xen:foreach>
 
<xen:if is="{$hasPosted}">Message to user</xen:if>

It's not the best solution, but it's the only way I see possible at the moment. Otherwise, you'd need an add-on to modify the thread/post fetching to include whether or not the user has posted in a thread (this is only done for thread listing for use with the mini-me avatar).
