Question: What order should include_in, replace_metadata, and include_metadata_pre run?

I created a custom entry and set it a placeholder to be transformed and included in seriesUrl. The replacement isn't working as expected. Would be easier than making a dozen story sections...

EDIT: Here's the code

[defaults]

# Custom metadata entries
add_to_extra_valid_entries:,collectionUrl

[archiveofourown.org]
## I also tried replacing 'seriesUrl'
 collectionUrl=>abc=>https://archiveofourown.org/collections/SpecReqs2023&&collection==Spectre Requisitions 2023

## Generates placeholder collectionUrl
include_in_collectionUrl:"abc"

## Copy collectionURL to series
include_in_seriesUrl:collectionUrl

include_metadata_pre:
## To include placeholder only when there's a collection
 collectionUrl==abc&&collections==Spectre Requisitions 2023

EDIT: It was a typo. The replace_metadata was checking 'collection' and not 'collections'

EDIT: Another issue though: the placeholder will apply for all books, ignoring the include_metadata.
