Templating Question

[cesera]

I have been looking at the templating language, but I can't work out if I can do what I want:

If a book is part of a series I want it on my device as:
{series}/(series_index}_(title}

and if it doesn't I would like it on my device as:

{author_sort}/{title}

Can I do that with the templating?

Note that your example templates are using '(' where you want '{'.

In template program mode:

{series:'test($, template('[[series]]/[[series_index]]_[[title]]'), template('[[author_sort]]/[[title]]'))'}

In general program mode:

program: test(field('series'), template('{series}/{series_index}_{title}'), template('{author_sort}/{title}'))

Wow, I thought I was getting close, but looking at your template I was miles off.

Thank you very much for you help and quick reply.
