I want to add co-authors to a two columns article, I looked at previous questions but I cannot figure out why is not working. Here is a MWE. Basically I have 4 authors from the same university and an additional author from another institute. I would like a format like this centered with the five authors name and then in the next line the two name of the university.
Author A^1, B^1, C^1, D^1, E^2
1 University name
2 University name
Thanks for the help

A template is something predefined, like the program of a TV station. If you don't like a piece, you can switch to another station (template). You cannot simply switch templates that way though. You have to create your own program, and nowadays you can find all the pieces you like on Youtube, right?
So, use the bits and pieces you know from your LaTeX introduction and there is no need to rely on a TV station. You will create your own stuff much easier by putting together the pieces.
But now the code that creates the following screenshot.
A template is not a template
