Help with Series Setup

Hello.

First off, I am not sure if I am calling this feature/operation correctly.

On my Kobo I currently sort/browse books via Shelves (calibre), or Collections (Kobo). If there are a set of books on a shelf that belong to a series I have been manually renaming the book titles to incorporate the series number. For example: Harry Potter & the Philosopher's Stone [1]. This reminds me which order the books are in. Very simple.

Recently in one of my collections I have noticed an additional line of text between the book title and the authors name. Specifically in this case it says:
Book Title
THE WHITE RABBIT CHRONICLES - #
Gena Showalter

I prefer this to my renaming method. I have been playing around in Calibre to try and get this to happen with all my books that are part of a series. I followed the instructions to setup a shelves and collections here to no avail. This might completely be the wrong thing for me.

After playing around some of my books previously had this extra line of text and now they are gone, or so I believe. These books were either purchased from kobo or sideloaded.

My question is; is it possible to add this line of text to have the series name and number show up on the Kobo?

Thank you in advance for any guidance. I can attach pictures is that helps people understand in case I am naming these headings incorrectly.

Cheers!
