We use the 'insert views from file' command to bring our standard details into a project. However, the inserted views don't seem to bring the applied view template in with them. Is there any way for this to happen?

Make sure to have both projects open.

FWIW, transferring over View Templates can get "interesting," depending on what the VT overrides. For instance, if you TPS in the View Templates, but dont bring the Filters, and Filters exist in that VT that dont exist in the new Project, it doesnt something weird. I dont remember if it fails to bring it over, or if it just drops the Filter, but im certain it doesnt automatically bring the Filter over, which is a PITA.
Similarly, it cant bring over settings on Linked DWG or Linked RVT files, as they all have unique GUID's for the Links, and it *drops those* when it comes across.
Just a few more things to think about with VT's and transferring.
