but I must be missing something obvious because it only shows me the series information on the screen.
The save template is used for the filename. Kobo does not use this. They use the metadata from the file. To set the subtitle as @ownedbycats suggests, you need to do it in the driver configuration. On the third tab are options to update the metadata when the device is connected. You can set a template for the subtitle there. You can also do this using my Kobo Utilities plugin. You can use that to do some experimenting to see if it is suitable. For both cases, the book has to have been sent to the device and imported by it.

If you do set the subtitle, you will be able to search for the text used as the subtitle, but, you will not be able to sort on it.
