But I started having some problems with the "replace_metadata".
I've been using it to automatically change AO3 categories to others.
In my .ini, it looks like this:
category=>Marvel=>Marvel Cinematic Universe
or
category=>Marvel \(Marvel Movies\)=>Marvel Cinematic Universe
Around 1 week ago, the lines stopped working, but seemingly only the ones with brackets. (not 100% sure about though)

Alright, I've been testing some things with my "replace_metadata" Problem:
It doesn't lie with the brackets, but with something else.
An example fic that I used was:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/21428569
It has the fandoms "Marvel Cinematic Universe", "Iron Man (Movies)", "The Avengers (Marvel Movies)".
My .ini has already lines to replace the last two with the first:
replace_metadata:
(space)category=>Iron Man \(Movies\)=>Marvel Cinematic Universe
(space)category=>The Avengers \(Marvel Movies\)=>Marvel Cinematic Universe
The first line works without a problem.
But the thing that I don't understand is: The second one replaces the fandom with "Marvel Cinematic Universe (Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies)".
I tried fixing it by adding:
(space)category=>Marvel Cinematic Universe \(Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies\)=>Marvel Cinematic Universe
I removed the lines and added them one-by-one, too.
But that doesn't help either.
So I tried some more URLs which have several fandoms with brackets, including "The Avengers (Marvel Movies)":
https://archiveofourown.org/works/17981474
("Marvel Cinematic Universe", "Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)", "The Avengers (Marvel Movies)")
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15578055
("Spider-Man - All Media Types", "Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)", "Iron Man (Movies)", "The Avengers (Marvel Movies)", "Marvel Cinematic Universe")
Again, everything works, except the Avengers one.
(My replace_metadata is in the same format as above.)
Any Ideas why?
