I am fleshing out my plugin Graphic-display-ranks and I’m looking for the right hook to use to do the following:

I want to find out if a topic author is the Key Master or a moderator. Here is what I have so far —

function get_special_rank () {

global $special_rank, $use_special_rank, $bbdb;

if ($use_special_rank==1)

{$title_for_rank=<strong>I NEED THIS HOOK</strong>( get_post_author_id() );

switch ($title_for_rank) {

case "keymaster" :

$special_rank=1;

break;

case "moderator" :

$special_rank=2;

break;

default :

$special_rank=0;

}

}

else

{

$special_rank = 0;

}

return $special_rank;

}

Can anyone point me in the right directon?
