    One of my series has a prequel book, which would make it #0 in the series (and the #0 is written in the title on the cover). However, when I put 0 in the volume number, MBT assumes there is no volume number and doesn’t list it chronologically on the series page. Is there a way I could get it to display Volume #0 without making it 0.5 or something?

    We will look into a fix.

    In the meantime, what happens when you set the volume number to 0.5?

    I was just using the 0.5 as an example of a potential workaround. I just tried it though and it didn’t do anything, the book still appears at the bottom of the series.

    This is fixed in 2.0. Books in a series now sort by series order and can handle decimals as well as integers.

    Working now.

    There’s a weird tick happening with this. When clicking on the series link, the books display in order (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.). But if I use the MBT shortcode, it always puts 0 after 1, so the books go 1, 0, 2, 3.

    Here’s the series link page: http://www.percivalconstantine.com/series/vanguard/
    Here’s the page that uses the shortcode: http://www.percivalconstantine.com/vanguard/

    As you can see, the page that uses the shortcode is displaying the books in the wrong order.

    Thanks for pointing this out, when we added the series ordering behavior we failed to update the shortcode to work the same way. This will be fixed in the next update which should be released very soon.
