Question Help with a new Plugboard Please

Hi:

I am having trouble trying to get a plugboard to work correctly. I currently have where I purchased the book as part of my my title so that I can easily add them to the correct collections on a Paperwhite.

The field has names like:

1.1 Amazon
1.11 Amazon
1.2 Lendle Borrowed

I would like the first seven characters only to show up so they would look like this in the title:

1.1 Amazon --> 1.1 Ama
1.11 Amazon --> 1.11 Am

The full plugboard is this:

{tags} - {#kcollections:7.2f} - {title} - {#stripped_series:lookup(.\s,#initials,.,#shortene d,series)}{series_index:0>2s| [|] }

So the result should be:

Fantasy Series - 1.1 Ama - A Memory of Light - WoT

Can someone tell me looking at the plugboard above, where I am going wrong? I tried to follow some examples that Eschwartz posted, but it is not working with my clueless mind.
