Co Authoring with different positions

Is it possible to assign many authors to a post and specify the contribution type of each one with some labels like: writer, translator, author, reviewer etc.

I tried the plugin Co-Authors Plus, but it assumes every user assigned to an article is an author.

PS:

  • The contribution type of a user may differ from a post to another one, for example, he may be a translator for post X and writer for post Y.

  • I need to attach a real user (wp_users) to a post as an author but specify its contribution type. I want to get for example in a post:

    Authors: user1
Translators: user2, user3
Reviewers: user4

I found a correct answer. I ended by adding custom fields (translators, reviewers ...) with the ACF plugin. Example:

    Field Label: Translators
    Field Name: translators
    Field type: Relational (user)
    Field Type: multi-select
    ..

However, this will make the table wp_postmeta very huge, as my website will contain a large number of posts.
