Thank you for your suggestion, but I only want to change the name of the title when there is a serie

That's easy to do--you can conditionally include series only when it's populated.

Here's a copy of what I use:
Code:
{series:|| }{series_index:0>2s|[|] - }{title}

@Amiga56 - for some reason Google won't let me see that image.

Use the the MR attachment feature, see ==>> Attachments and Images

To do what you want, you'll probably need to use a composite (column built from other columns) custom column. But that won't change the library folder and file names, see ==>> Want to change folder structure or file names in the Calibre library?

And here's a capture of my Series Title column that does exactly what you want without changing the title field. Instead, you create custom composite column that displays both. Then hide Title and show Series Title instead. Note Series only appears if there is one.

I doubt you're going to get anyone to change this plugin for you because custom composite columns and metadata plugboards are widely considered better ways to do what you're asking for.

Here are copies of my custom column and plugboard settings. (The plugboard includes other additional custom columns.)

@Amiga56 - your Column Type (Type de collonne) is wrong, you need "Colonne construite à partir d’autres colonnes" then enter the same template, exactly, as in JX's images.

Interesting plug-in, however, I don't know if I does something wrong.
I install it, restart Calibre, then, I select some books, clic the plug-in icon, and create a new serie and accept. Then, the selected books was added to the new serie. All right for now.

Then, I select the same books, and clic the "delete this books from the serie", accept, but nothing happend, because the books are still vinculated to the serie I created before. I try a couple of time, but nothing. So, I manually delete the serie from Calibre.

Maybe I do something wrong.

Thanks for your time

I can confirm that is the behavior you get. However, looking at the code, that's also the behavior that was intended--books removed from the Series list are not changed.

A bit of searching found that, way back when, kiwidude said that's the way he intended it to work:

That is intentional given it is just as easy to blank the series cell in the library view (or use the bulk edit dialog). I would have thought that removing a series from a book would be one of the least used functions. So I don't see anything changing in that regard.

Delete, means remove from current list
select the books in the regular GUI (spreadsheet), tap 'e', and TICK the Clear series box

New Test Version

As you may have heard, Calibre on Python3 betas are now available.

Which means plugins need to start being transitioned to Python3 also.

Attached is a (hopefully) Python3 compatible update to this plugin.

2019-12-20

- Changes for Python3.

Please let me know if this version works for you or not, especially on the Py3 beta.

is there a way to limit or stop calibre from creating a series when there is only 1 book?
