    Default Auto-fill package specs

    Would it be possible to have WHMCS automatically fill in the packages specs in the various places it's used (emails, order pages, etc)? In my previous script, they had variables that got replaced automatically at run time, in client emails, on order pages, in the back end. Looked like this:
    {{web_space}} MB Web Space
    {{bandwidth}} MB Transfer
    {{email}} Email Accounts
    This would print the stored values that were set up for the account wherever the {{variable}} was used. Looked like this:
    250 MB Web Space
    2,000 MB Transfer
    10 Email Accounts
    Please?

    I did this with a custom smarty plugin that pulls the data based on product name or pid. It then throws the data into an array and you can use it how you please. This enables me to put product specs anywhere on the site and just update them in WHMCS versus going to different pages on the site to do it.

    Exactly what I'd like this for. Would you be willing to share the method and/or plugin?
    Can it be pulled into emails as well?

    I dont think anything can be added to emails really without matts involvement. I could be wrong.

    Where exactly is this functionality wanted - from what I gather it's the order page description field and the email templates?

    That would be perfect, yes to both. It would be even better if we could use the same vars in other ways as well, such as populating a grid, but the first two would be acceptable with my gratitude.
