Can capsicum, eggplant, etc. be grown from seedlings transplanted into (large-ish) pots? Best soil? Will Potting mix be suitable? I am about 50 k NNW of Brisbane as the crow flies. Many thanks.

The bigger the pot the better. Mix some compost or good rich soil into the potting mix. Water regularly and you probably have to fertilise each couple of weeks. Also stake them.
