Looks like you'll need to get longer posts. You need at least 2' in the ground and more if you anticipate high winds, large snow drifts, or stampeeding buffalos. I was able to get a vinyl 4x4 post cover to slip over my posts before I screwed in my vinyl fences into them. With a fancy post top, it looks good, though our littlest dog still slips through as if it wasn't there.

Subject: [DIY] Vinyl fence post question
We are getting ready to install the vinyl fence that we bought 3 years ago.
I have a question on setting the post.
If we position the post so there is 12 to 14 inches between the bottom of the bottom board, and the top of the ground, it only leaves 12 inches to set in the ground.
That doesnt seem right. What about heaving in the winter?
