if the posts have exposed wood that contacts the ground below the vinyl, i
would put each post in a heavy duty plastic bag that will come to the
surface of the ground, pour your concrete, let it set good, then cut the
plastic off at ground level. you will add several years to the life of the
post by insulating it from the concrete. you won't notice it, but your post
will thank you. the chemicals in the concrete will leech into the wood even
though it's treated. you might also consider placing a bit of gravel in the
posthole under the post.keeps the post's feet a lot dryer.

My vinyl fence has NO wood. Anywhere.
The cement went INSIDE the hollow post.
