 * Hi.
 * Working on a light e-commerce site. There’s a products listing page, the individual
   product pages and purchase section on each product page – all of which will list
   the product’s price. The plan is to use custom fields and template hooks to display
   most of these.
 * My question is: What if the content author would like to include the price in
   the body of the post? Is there a way to insert it as a variable directly into
   a post so that it will auto-update when the custom field’s value updates?
 * I’m guessing there’s a plugin for this but damn if I could find it.
 * Thanks,
    Will
