Hello! I would love some help with an issue I'm trying to solve. In the past, I was reading books on my kindle3 and used this metadata template for the title:

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

It was simple and worked perfectly for my needs.

Now I'm reading a lot of fanfiction (don't laugh! it's relaxing) and developed a new template that I like.

{title} ({#chapters}ch, {#words}w) {#status} {#updated:format_date(M-d-yy)}

As you can see the new template has completely different info. Is there a way for me to combine the two? I've been manually changing the template in the plugboard (like a heathen) based on the content I'm uploading. Surely there must be some kind of if-then statement I can use.

Basically what I would like is that if the series is called "Fanfiction" to use the second template and if it's not to use the first one. Is that possible? I don't know any programming languages so please walk me through it if it's very complicated. I only got this far in my templating by using what I learned from all of you in this thread. Thank you!
