FIRST ISSUE FIXED! (I had an errant override that was keeping it hidden.)

For the second issue:
http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=15674

With this story, the most important thing would be to move the pairing names (McKay/Sheppard, Other Pairings, Other Male Pairings) from "category" to "ships" (so they show up in the #ships custom column).

Additionally (but less importantly), I'd like to be able to move "Threesomes and Moresomes", "Slash Pairings", and "Ship Pairings" to my ao3categories custom column.

To simplify what I'm saying, maybe this will help. Currently, the relevant part of Wraithbait's story heading looks like this:

Category: Threesomes and Moresomes > All Varieties, Slash Pairings > McKay/Sheppard, Ship Pairings > Other Pairings, Slash Pairings > Other Male Pairings

Genres: Action/Adventure, Angst, AU - Alternate Universe, Established Relationship, Friendship, Hurt Comfort, Romance, Series

I want it to look like this:

ships: McKay/Sheppard, Other Pairings, Other Male Pairings

ao3categories: Slash Pairings, Ship Pairings, Threesomes and Moresomes

freeformtags: Action/Adventure, Angst, AU - Alternate Universe, Established Relationship, Friendship, Hurt Comfort, Romance, Series

Another example for the second issue:
http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=11564

Again, my primary desire is to get McKay/Sheppard into my ships column, but secondarily, I'd like to be able to move "Crossovers" so that it's in the same place all the "Genre" tags (from issue #1) end up.

Currently on Wraithbait:

Category: Crossovers > Slash Pairings, Slash Pairings > McKay/Sheppard

Genres: AU - Alternate Universe, Established Relationship, Friendship, Humour, Team

How I want it:

ships: McKay/Sheppard

ao3categories: Slash Pairings

freeformtags: Crossovers, AU - Alternate Universe, Established Relationship, Friendship, Humour, Team

I can use include/exclude metadata to get rid of any extraneous stuff, so that's not a problem. I just need to know if there's a way to move individual items from one entry name to another (maybe using regex in an if/then kind of way, like replace_metadata, but more comprehensive).
