 * In the main website every article is manually assigned to an author.
 * When I sync the article I find it in the other website but the author is assigned
   to the admin user even though the user author exists.
 * Do I miss something or the plugin can’t assign the right author?

 * Hi,
 * We do not give a functionality to sync the author.
 * But there is an option that you can set one static author. You have to add the
   author username and password to ‘Sync Post’ menu.
 * For example, You want to sync the post from website1 to website2. So, you have
   to create a User/Author to website2 and set that user login details to website1.
   So whenever you sync the post from website1 then the entered users will be the
   author.
