Feature Request: Method for me to change the date added

Server Version#:4.12.3
Player Version#:N/A
Please provide a way for Plex Pass users to change the Data Added when editing Movie Metadata. Often when I change file names or folder names for media it changes the date added and I want to be able to change it back.

I sort of require the same feature (Plex Media Server Version 1.18.4.2171 on Windows 10).

My issue is that we often sort our Plex clients to watch the latest movies I’ve added to the library.

The issue comes when a new movie is incorrectly pattern matched to an older movie (that may of been added a year ago for example). When an incorrect pattern match occurs, the new movie appears to take the ‘data added’ entry from the previously matched movie after you split it and correct the match.

This leaves the newly added movie (by date added) not sorted at the top of the list.

Eg. This happened to me when I tried to add ‘The Dark (2018)’ and it pattern matched to ‘The Dark Tower (2017)’ that I’d added a couple of years ago.

I’d like to be able to edit the ‘date added’ field of the meta data for this newly added movie.
