Delay or modify stated posting date for announcement

I like to prepare a recap announcement for my virtual office sessions (VOS) ahead of the VOS, to facilitate faster turnaround for the students. This includes a link to my video recording of the VOS (including their questions and our discussions), links to articles I discuss in the VOS, and links to code and data files from the VOS demonstrations. By setting up my template ahead of time with the anticipated files, I can send out the recap soon after rendering the video.

Unfortunately, the posted date reflects the date I set up my template, even though I place a delay on it until hours after my VOS. This confuses students, since the announcement appears to be prior to the VOS.

How can I prevent the posting date from being set to the first edit date (which is never posted for the students at that time); or alternatively, how can I change it to match the actual posting date?
