I wonder how to create corresponding authors footnote in a title page, in a two column format of elsevier, knowing that I use the elsevier template suggested for this journal.
I work on shareLatex.
I use the folowing code:
\documentclass[3p,times]{elsarticle}
\begin{document}
\begin{sloppypar}
%% if i put \begin{frontmatter} here I will not get the one column abstract and two column introduction at the same page
\title{distributed systems}
\author{coco coco\corref{cor1}\fnref{1}}
\ead{coco.coco@gmail.com}
\author{momo momo\corref{cor1}\fnref{2}}
\ead{momo.momo@gmail.com}
\cortext[cor1]{Corresponding author}
\address[1]{university 1}
\address[2]{university 2}
\twocolumn[
\begin{@twocolumnfalse} \begin{frontmatter}
\begin{abstract}
distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems distributed systems.
\end{abstract}
\begin{keyword}
distributed systems.
\end{keyword}
\end{frontmatter}
\vspace*{7mm}
\end{@twocolumnfalse}
]
I would like to get my title page like in the image:
