Sorry, I don't follow. Yes, I am asking about titles. And yes, I did update the series field on my kobo ereader before. No, I'm don't want to change the "authors" field. In the destination field column you can choose "title", "series", "series_index", and other fields.

I would like to update the "title" field as described in my post + screenshot. Possible? I figure that if the plugboard UI lets me choose "title" as the destination field, it means that it can be changed via plugboards. It even says in the describe in the UI that the title can be chnaged. It's the last paragraph in the text at the top.

And I've tested the regular expression I tried and it works in Python, removing the part of the title after a colon. I don't see why it wouldn't work in Calibre.
