 * I want to limit users to post one category in every post types.
    So I enabled
   built-in category for custom post types. But Author Category only works with “
   Post”. Is there any way to make the plugin works on other post types?

 * Open the plugin file and call
 *     ```
       add_meta_box( 'author_cat',__( 'author category','author_cat' ),array( &$this, 'render_meta_box_content' ),'post' ,'side','low');
       ```
   
 * for every post type, until next update which will have a proper hook to work 
   with.
