But now an additional box has popped up (top right):

And there are only three options to add the author.

Here are the options:

This actually isn't a Largo issue, it's a Gutenberg issue. We switched to Gutenberg in 2018, but for some reason the byline function was still in the classic editor, go figure. Anyway, when the classic editor was finally deprecated this switched the bylines to the registered user format.

You may also need to update your Co-Authors Plus install to cover the new version of Gutenberg.
