  (Asked by: username_0 on 2017-10-16)
  
  I have a Craft CMS powered site which has "Suppliers" set up as a user group. A route is being used to link through to these suppliers on the frontend; example.com/supplier/loremipsum.
  
  Is it possible to add an option to the link button on the Rich editor field, that would allow me to choose a user from the *supplier* user group? Much like the "Link to an entry" option.

  You could do this with a [custom plugin](https://craftcms.com/docs/plugins) that used the [addRichTextLinkOptions](https://craftcms.com/docs/plugins/hooks-reference#addRichTextLinkOptions) to add extra options to that dropdown.
  
  You can use <https://pluginfactory.io> to generate boilerplate plugin code to get you up and running quickly.
