The magic is all in the switch.

Code:

strcat(
    switch(
        stripped,
        # This regex tests to see if initials are used.
        '.\s', initials,
        '.', shortened,
        field('series')
    ),
    test(
        s_index,
        strcat(' [', s_index, '] '),
        ''
    ),
    field('title')
);

Change the regex in red to match the stripped series, e.g.

Code:

(.+\s+){2}.+

Repeats to match only once there are two spaces (or more, of course).
