    Hi, I generally would like to know about Generatepress product roadmap as I would like to do an informed decision of extending my GP license.

    secondly, is there thoughts/ways to achieve what this tweet highlights? (apart from what is mentioned in tweet with publishPress)

    Hi there,

    you can build any kind of Post Meta with a GeneratePress Block Element and GenerateBlocks.
    Our blocks support many dynamic data types including title, terms, dates ( published and latest ) as well as post meta, term meta and author meta etc.

    I can recount a few support topics where we have shown users how to add a “co-author” or reviewed by author in their post meta. So that too is possible today.

    However when it comes to co-authors, the question is are they:

    a. a true co-author where a single post can be attributed and archived by multiple authors
    OR
    b. custom meta for displaying another author.

    Option b can be done today. Option a is not a native WP function, and ideally it should be.
    You can use plugins such as the one by publish press to handle that ( i think ) and they have an API that could be integrated with a GP Block element with very little code.

    Linke to API for reference:
