For books sideloaded via Calibre (epub or kepub, makes no diference):
1. Add the series information to the book's metadata in Calibre,
2. Make sure the metadata management option in Calibre is set to automatic,
3. Make sure the KoboTouch plugin has the "Set series information" box ticked,
4. Send the book to the device,
5. Safely eject, unplug, wait for device to process books,
6. Plug in for a second time, wait for Calibre to update metadata,
7. Safely eject and unplug for a second time, and series info should now show on the device.
To change titles, author, series, and to add ISBN, publisher, and publication date metadata to sideloaded books, use the "update metadata" function in the KoboUtilities plugin.
You can also use these methods to change the metadata for non-sideloaded books by adding a dummy book to calibre with the same name and author as the book on the device, connect the device and ait for Calibre to match the dummy book to the one on the device, then change and update the metadata for the dummy book in exactly the same way as for a sideloaded book.
