The bug

Adding a step template or community step results in the name auto-filling as the step type (Run a Script) instead of the template name (IIS - Reset)

What I expected to happen

The template name should be retained.

Steps to reproduce

1. Add a community step to a process e.g. IIS - Reset
2. Check the name of the new step, it will display the base type
