How do I create a "series"?

So I just started posting what will be a multi-chapter story here, and I've been having trouble finding a the way to create a "series" to group this and future ones under. Does that happen automatically with works titled identically save for the number at the end? If so, did I screw up in some way by labeling my first part "Prologue" instead of "Ch.0"?

Submit the first chapter as Story Title blah blah blah Chap.01

When you submit the second chapter, exact same title, Chap.02. Laurel then does all the joining up, and there's site code to compile the sequencing on your story list.

Your prologue will forever be alphabetically listed rather than numerically listed, and thus out of sequence. It would have worked correctly if you'd numbered it Chap.00. Rely on the intelligence of your readers to figure it out.

The chapter compiling code occasionally cocks up and double lists the story sequence - one of my long story cycles shows up twice, so it's not perfect. It's also a hassle to fix - I've asked a couple of times for the double-up to be taken away, but so far, no luck. It's a little bug, not a major bother, so I've not pursued it. My readers seem to figure it out.

So there's no way to group it manually, and no way to fix it?
