I have a lot of series which are nicely grouped together. The only thing missing, is the order of the series.
Under details the tag:" Volume #" is empty.
The raw tag is: "series-part":"2" or 1,2,3, depending on the part. Some series are 1.1 and 1.2 in the case that an book was split into two audiobooks.

Further, it would be great, if we could then show the series in an ascending order.

When you were looking at the raw tags, were you seeing "series-part" in there?

Also when you were looking at the logs did you see Notable! file_tag_seriespart in there at all?

In the raw tags I see the "series-part"
"SERIES":"Das Schwert der Wahrheit","SERIES-PART":"28",

In the logs I dont see Notable! file_tag_seriespart, but I neither see any other series tag. Looks like audiobookshelf is just using the folder structure for series (which is fine in my case), but not the tags in the files).

The Notable! log was actually only printing out the first one it found, that is why you weren't seeing it.

I just pushed a patch that maps
series => series
series-part => volumeNumber

I really need to update the docs..
The folder structure takes priority over metadata.
ID3 tags are mapped onto book detail fields only if they are empty.

So before this update the only way to auto populate the series field was to have a series folder. Now series can be auto populated via the ID3 tag.

Hopefully that clarified things, the docs are getting more and more important as this project grows.
