So heres my theroy. When a user clicks on the thread it will open the showthread.php file so im using this query.

$post['postid'] variable is the id of the first post.
$foruminfo['killfirstpost'] == 1 is picking which forum to do this at.

PHP Code:

if ($post['visible'] == 1 AND $foruminfo['killfirstpost']==1)
{
        $DB_site->shutdown_query("
                UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post
                SET visible = '0'
                WHERE postid = '". $post['postid']."')
        ");

} 


But its not working and i don't want to have to run a update query everytime showthread opens in that forum.
