If you want to avoid any mucking around yourself later in your library, do this. Choose that Goodreads:Listopia:Best Books Ever setting, but click on "Edit" instead of "Preview", which will take you to the "Web Page" tab of the plugin. Then at the bottom left, change "Strip:" by clicking on the little script button to the right of the dropdown, and choose the "(...)" option, this will strip everything in brackets off the titles. Or if you want to be more precise you can use a regex from this thread. You can then save that as a personal user setting on the last page of the wizard for future re-use.

I will make sure that those Goodreads settings have that as the default behaviour in a future version (that is assuming I don't make other changes to scrape that data into the actual series column for the plugin).
Ok, just so I understand, by changing this setting it just removes that extra data from the title field. Does it put the series info in the series and index fields?? If not, I will stick with the regex expressions, because those will move the series info to the appropriate fields.

And let me point out that I am loving this plugin. I have been playing with adding wishlist entries to my db since it came out.
