The standard pattern across other products is to list the blank/empty/default option first, since it represents the base starting point before any opinionated templates.</p> <h4 id="summary-steps-reproduce">Steps to reproduce</h4> <ol> <li>Run the Drupal CMS 2.x installer with site templates enabled</li> <li>Observe the ordering of options in the site template selector</li> <li>The blank option is not the first item in the list</li> </ol> <h3 id="summary-proposed-resolution">Proposed resolution</h3> <p>Ensure the blank template option is always listed first in the site template selector, before any curated site templates. This follows the convention established by other products and gives users a clear default starting point.</p> <h3 id="summary-ui-changes">User interface changes</h3> <p>The blank template will appear as the first option in the site template selector.</p> <h3 id="summary-data-model-changes">Configuration changes</h3> <p>None.</p>
