VRS.linkRenderHandlers.splice(0,1);

The 0 tells it to start at the first item in the array of links (0 is the first) and the 1 tells it to remove 1 item.

with this I can remove the default links, but how to remove the "first" link and pics for airport-data.com.
I want to bring at this position a custom pic and link.

The problem with your code is that you didn't remove selected.aircraft from the prototype url you used, and VRS doesn't have that...

which would have shown up if you had looked at the javascript console.

This function works:

Code: Select all

VRS.LinkSite["FlightRadar24DotCom"] = "flightradar24.com";

VRS.linkRenderHandlers.push(
   new VRS.LinkRenderHandler({
      linkSite:           VRS.LinkSite.FlightRadar24DotCom,
      displayOrder:       400,
      canLinkAircraft:    function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return aircraft && (aircraft.registration.val || aircraft.callsign.val); },
      hasChanged:         function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return aircraft.registration.chg || aircraft.callsign.chg; },
      title:              'www.flightradar24.com',
      buildUrl:           function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return 'https://www.flightradar24.com/' + 
                              ( aircraft.callsign.val ? 
					((!isNaN(aircraft.callsign.val) && aircraft.operatorIcao.val) ? 
						VRS.stringUtility.htmlEscape(aircraft.formatOperatorIcao() + aircraft.formatCallsign()) 
						: VRS.stringUtility.htmlEscape(aircraft.formatCallsign())) 
				: VRS.stringUtility.htmlEscape(aircraft.formatRegistration(true)) ); },
      target:             'flightradar24'
   })
);
Although, honestly, I've never SEEN an aircraft in VRS that has an all-number callsign. But if that's what you want, the above code works.

That doesn't quite answer how to put NEW links in the front, and there's a conceptualy easier way.

Code: Select all

// reverse the order of the array
VRS.linkRenderHandlers.reverse(); 
// remove the last element (which was the first) 
VRS.linkRenderHandlers.pop(); 
// add your new link handlers to the end... 
VRS.linkRenderHandlers.push( 
   (code-for-hander-will-be-second) );
VRS.linkRenderHandlers.push( 
   (code-for-hander-will-be-first) );
// now The-First-Shall-Be-Last... 
VRS.linkRenderHandlers.reverse() 
// and the ones you pushed onto the end are now at the front of the list

Sorry for the dumb question, but, do I need to create a file with the code to inject and place it somewhere in the path for VRS to find it and inject it?

Thanks to jfm for posting this thread, so I could walk the same way :)
Here below the script itself:

I changed your URL to

Code: Select all

I'll make my own contribution with a link to JetPhotos.com

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
VRS.LinkSite["mg_JetPhotosDotCom"] = "jetphotos.com";

VRS.linkRenderHandlers.push(
   new VRS.LinkRenderHandler({
      linkSite:           VRS.LinkSite.mg_JetPhotosDotCom,
      displayOrder:       400,
            canLinkAircraft:    function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return aircraft && aircraft.registration.val; },
            hasChanged:         function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return aircraft.registration.chg; },
            title:              'www.jetphotos.com',
            buildUrl:           function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return 'https://www.jetphotos.com/registration/' + VRS.stringUtility.htmlEscape(aircraft.formatRegistration()); },
            target:             'jetphotos'
   })
);
</script>

Added a new link to search the FAA.gov US Database

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
VRS.LinkSite["mg_FAAdotOrg"] = "faa.gov";

VRS.linkRenderHandlers.push(
   new VRS.LinkRenderHandler({
      linkSite:           VRS.LinkSite.mg_FAAdotOrg,
      displayOrder:       400,
            canLinkAircraft:    function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return aircraft && aircraft.registration.val; },
            hasChanged:         function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return aircraft.registration.chg; },
            title:              'faa.gov',
            buildUrl:           function(/** VRS.Aircraft */ aircraft) { return 'https://registry.faa.gov/AircraftInquiry/Search/NNumberResult?nNumberTxt=' + VRS.stringUtility.htmlEscape(aircraft.formatRegistration()); },
            target:             'faa'
   })
);

I also did, ist was an C3 Globemaster under the NATO Flag with the Callsign 03. Maybe it was misconfigured.
