Hello,

I'm trying to set a Metadata Plugboard template for 'saving to disk' and sending via email. I've switched to using Play Books by Google because it's syncing appears much more reliable than Moon Reader Pro's. The sad thing is that Play Books mainly lists ebooks by cover. Unless you click on 'see more' then you see some of the titles name but if it's long it truncates it. That makes it so we can't see the series index. I figure I can get around that by listing the index(number) first.

I've searched and found this which is close to what I want, but not quite there.

{series}{series_index:0>2s| - | - }{title}

Like I mentioned, I want the number first. The above gives me, as an example:

Wheel of Time, The - 12 - Gathering Storm, The.epub

But what I'd like to get is:

12 - Wheel of Time, The - Gathering Storm, The.epub

Anyone know if this is possible with calibre? And if so, how?
