I was just getting back into tending to my library after some time away from Calibre and noticed that the option to use the published date as specified per edition on Goodreads appears to have disappeared from the Goodreads Metadata Source plugin.

It seemed to have worked this way in 2018 and I can't see anything in this thread to say it changed.

I am married to having the publication date in the Calibre pubdate field and don't trust combining metadata sources to pull the correct edition date, I've treated Goodreads as my authoritative source for this stuff forever. I have large numbers of translations/critical editions of single works in my library so losing this ability would fundamentally break how I've structured a huge Calibre library.

Am I out of luck? Please tell me the option has moved somewhere I've not thought to look.
