But I cant figure out the template formula to use. Currently mine is set to:

{author_sort}/{series}/{series_index}/{title}/{authors} - {title}

and all it does is sort by author and then title. I've obviously messed up something. How do I adapt this to also sort by series?

TIA
Specify a name of a series in the metadata for the book, and it will work fine when you save to disk or to device.

If the book doesn't belong to a series, then both /{series} and /{series_index} will be ignored.
