I hope this is the right thread to ask this in.

I have a simple plugboard for my Kobo mini
{series}{series_index:0>2s| - | - }{title} as destination field title

And it works really well, except with one series where I have a lot of books that are in-betweeners (2.1,3.5, 6.01, etc). There are actual novellas and also deleted scenes and snippets the author posts on her website so there isn't the same number of in-between stories between each novel.

The series displays on my Kobo as:
series name - 01 - title
series name - 02 - title
series name - 03 - title
series name - 04 - title
series name - 05 - title
series name - 06 - title
series name - 07 - title
series name - 08 - title
series name - 09 - title
series name - 10 - title
series name - 10.01 - title
series name - 10.10 - title
series name - 11 - title
series name - 11.10 - title
series name - 11.20 - title
series name - 12 - title
series name - 12.01 - title
series name - 12.10 - title
series name - 2.10 - title
series name - 3.01 - title
series name - 3.50 - title
series name - 3.51 - title
series name - 5.50 - title
series name - 8.50 - title


Is there a way to get the single digit point entries (in red above) to appear in the correct order (add the one leading 0) without making every book in a series include a ".xx" on the end.

I hope that makes sense. I really don't want to change the plugboard to the example {series_index:0>5.2f} as I don't need books by other authors to show as 01.00, 02.00 (with the .xx) It's really just this one author's books I am having an issue with.
