You just need to use "Add ew Plugin" under "Plugins & Products" in the adminCP, and

- Choose newthread_form_complete from the hook location drop-down
- Enter a title so that later you'll remember what it does
- Paste the code in the large box
- Click the "Yes" radio button and hit save


BTW, if you want to have the prefix selected instead of hiding the prefix, you can use this:

if ($foruminfo['options'] & $vbulletin->bf_misc_forumoptions['prefixrequired'])
{
    if (preg_match_all('#<option value="([A-Za-z0-9_]+)"#', $prefix_options, $matches) == 1)
    {
        $prefix_options = preg_replace('#<option value="([A-Za-z0-9_]+)"#', '\\0 selected="selected"', $prefix_options);
    }
}

That only selects one if there's only one and it's required, but you could modify it of course.
