That is probably the problem. Only one of them will actually do something. And it sounds like the second one listed is the one that is working.

You could try:

Code:
{#fandom:||: }{series}{series_index:0>2s| – | – }{title}
That would give you the fandom and series if the book has both, or just one, or just the title if the it has neither.

Next to Edit existing plugboard, under Format, I can choose MOBI or a blank line. Or do you mean I should Add a new plugboard and start from scratch?
For the format, you can choose a specific format if you want something different for each format. Or choose "any format" if you want to use the same thing for all books. If you have both, the specific format will be used. There is a similar choice for the device.
