Making Plug-in Appear in Template?

[TMR Bac]

This is a follow-up to a prior post.

I have created a VB plug-in (for version 3.7.1) with php code that pulls a value out of a non-VB mysql table based on vbulletin's userid. It is created under the hook postbit_create_start.

What I need to do is make the output of this plugin appear in the postbit template (more specifically, under the post's poster name and ranking).

This is where I'm stuck. I'm not sure what I need to do within the plug-in to make it ready to appear in a VB template, and then what code to put into the postbit template so the plugin output appears.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm guessing this is pretty simple. Thanks!
