[Tex/LaTex] Adding IEEE copyright notice to LaTeX template

copyrightformattingieeeconfieeetrantemplates

I am trying to add the IEEE copyright notice to the template provided here: http://www.icb2019.org/Misc/icb2019_latex_for_review.zip

I have tried the following commands:

\IEEEoverridecommandlockouts
\IEEEpubid{\makebox[\columnwidth]{978-1-5386-5541-2/18/\$31.00~\copyright2018 IEEE \hfill} \hspace{\columnsep}\makebox[\columnwidth]{ }}

I am relatively new to LaTeX. It appears this is because the document class is 'article' not 'IEEEtran'. However, when I change this to IEEEtran it ruins the formatting of the rest of the paper.

How can I add the copyright notice without ruining the default formatting of the template?

I am aware of similar questions to this, however, they address the default IEEE template. My issue here is that the template (above) is not the IEEE template and therefore cannot use the same commands.

Firstly, use IEEE Latex Template. Now do the following

Add the following code before the \maketitle command**:

\IEEEoverridecommandlockouts
\IEEEpubid{\makebox[\columnwidth]{978-1-5386-5541-2/18/\$31.00~\copyright2018 IEEE \hfill}
\hspace{\columnsep}\makebox[\columnwidth]{ }}

Add the following code after the \maketitle command:
