 * Hi [@bintudharsul](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bintudharsul/),
 * I apologize for the delay in our response here! We’ve been recently acquired 
   by Awesome Motive which does bring with it some exciting future plans for Sugar
   Calendar. I don’t have any news to share right now but expect some updates from
   us in the future!
 * As for your question, authors are not set by default with Sugar Calendar. You
   can read more in the link below on how to add that functionality if needed.

 * Advanced Custom Fields works with Sugar Calendar. You’ll just set up a new Field
   Group for when the Post Type equals “Event”. Here is a screenshot showing this
   setup from ACF. [https://a.supportally.com/yLSCnd](https://a.supportally.com/yLSCnd)
 * Below is information on template files and post meta that can be used. Creating
   custom templates is outside of support but hopefully these documents will help.
   ACF has detailed documentation as well on how to pull data into a template.

 * Hi [@bintudharsul](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bintudharsul/),
 * We haven’t heard back from you in about a week, so I’m going to go ahead and 
   close this thread for now. But if you’d like us to assist further, please feel
   welcome to continue the conversation (please just see my post above).
 * Thanks!
