To clarify, are you talking about the fact that it says 19 items instead of the total number of books? Or are you talking about all the "#,,,," labels?

i mean all the labels, i think this has something todo that the books ar numbered in the subseries, but not in the main series

Can you provide some more detailed steps for this please:

Generate a Series and add Multiple sub Series, only number the books in the sub series

I'm not exactly sure what to be doing to attempt to reproduce this.

You need to edit a lot of books and add two series, one with IDs and one without, the one with IDs are the smaller series with 5-10 books. And the big series without IDs are like the complete universe. In the end you need like one series with 50 books without numbers and 5 subseries with 10 and each series have books with ids from 1 to 10.

@Blindie92 - I was able to see this.

Create a big series (more than 2 books) with no series ordering -- that is, add the same series name to more than 3 books.
Take 2 or more of those books and make up a series name and ordering for them -- add that new series name, alongside the old one, to them, along with a nice numeric ordering 1-2 (or 1-3 etc).

Now when you view the #1 series, you'll see the books grouped together, but instead of just displaying the count of books as it should (because the main #1 series being displayed has no ordering), it'll display #,,. The number of commas in there will be one less than the number of books -- it's trying to print a subsequence like #1,5,17 or #1-3 but there are no actual numbers to print.

I said "more than 2 books." If you create a subseries that has only 1 book, or if the subseries is not ordered, it will correctly just display the count of books contained in the subseries without trying to produce a subsequence. I think this latter behavior is correct: if there are any unordered books in a subseries, one cannot print a comma-separated description of their subsequence.
