How to import all plug-ins, template, etc.

[grubbgto]

hello...
i'm presently working on a band with a very limited budget and time frame.
in wanting to do the band a favor, i spent a few hours working on one song (their budget was to mix/master all 5 songs in two hours... eeks!) and am now wanting to apply every plug-in, effect, etc. uniformly to all the other sessions/songs/mixes.
when opening up a new mix/session/song (that's already been recorded, and labeled exactly the same) i tried the 'import session template' option hoping this would import all of my work and was unsuccessful.
my hope is to be able to import all the work/plug-ins/efx/etc. from the first/main session/song, and have the new songs/sessions recognize where to place the proper plug-ins to the exact tracks as they exist on from the main session.
can pro-tools even make this happen? maybe i missed a step.
any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
