@ScarletKuro @henon @danielchalmers @mikes-gh Here's a PR for the .NET 8 MudBlazor 7.0.0-preview.4 templates. (I had to start over.) Currently, the template has the basic pages updated and the test PS script works, but I had some questions about what else you'd like to see:

1. Do you want all of the auth pages (about 20 of them) upgraded to MudBlazor components?
2. The template has something which may feel like a bug to end users. The Microsoft Identity code has options.SignIn.RequireConfirmedAccount = true in it, which means nobody who registers an account can immediately log in until they connect to the database and manually modify their record. I would like to change this flag to false to fix this (and it works), but it's less secure. Are you okay with this change?
3. The Home.razor page in the template has one set of instructions for all project types. Shall we make this more dynamic to show different messages per project type? (I would vote yes)

Global Mode without Auth:

Mode	Status
Auto	Working
Wasm	Working
Server	Working

Per page without Auth:

Mode	Status	Description
Auto	Working	-
Wasm	Working	-
Server	Working	-

I didn't check the static SSR yet (auth). I think we need to fix the per page first to move on the next step.

Can we control the default selection mode?
I would want it to be global -> wasm.
That would eliminate a lot of complaints/issues, as many newbie people just hit the next button.

Yes, I was able to change the defaults in template.json, in the InteractivityPlatform and InteractivityLocation sections.

Per page without Auth: Auto/Wasm Not Working

Thanks @ScarletKuro , I have fixed these issues and have retested all templates. Also:

• The Dark/Light Mode button only appears for apps without Auth
• The default template is now WebAssembly/Global
• The bootstrap.css and app.css are now only included by App.razor while viewing Auth pages.

... the only issue I couldn't figure out is regarding app.css and Auth pages. The CSS shows underlines for links in the Nav Panel, but the non-Auth pages look okay:

Ah, I just noticed it's for v6 :( I don't think it's compatible with v7, there is v7 branch but no nuget

[Anu6is]

Pushed a pre-release for v7.
Think I thought v7 was getting released early June so I intended to wait.

Ok, thanks @Anu6is! I'm excited to check out your library and will work on the Auth pages tonight.

[jperson2000]

@Anu6is your library worked beautifully for upgrading the Account pages. Thanks so much for your work on the static form components!

[ScarletKuro]

Everything seems to work. It's a very great work.

Is anyone willing to double check the templates itself? @henon @mikes-gh @xC0dex @Anu6is @danielchalmers
Otherwise I want to merge this ASAP.

I could try it out this evening, so in about 2–3 hours 👍

[xC0dex]

I created some solutions with these templates in Rider and it looks good 👍

[henon]

Thank you very much

Just a quick note: When MudBlazor 7.0.0 is released, a small PR will be needed to change the Package Reference version to 7.* for templates.

Yes, and MudBlazor.Static probably too.
