Can't load resource from javascript after update to 7.1

Is there an existing issue for this?

Description

I have a dropdown that needs localization but after updating to version 7.1 its not working anymore.

In the case below I just get PleaseSelectSports in the dropdown but not "Please select your sport" text that is in resources.

@section scripts{
    <abp-script src="/Pages/MyPage.cshtml.js" />
}

<abp-dropdown>
    <abp-dropdown-button class="" id="dropdownChangedSportsType" text="loading..." />
</abp-dropdown>

and then my javascript

$(function () {
const urlParams = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
document.querySelector('#dropdownChangedSportsType').children[0].innerText = abp.localization.localize('PleaseSelectSports');

If I put

<h1>@Localizer["PleaseSelectSports"]</h1> on the .cshtml page I can see it being localized but if I put this code into the javascript it returns false so it looks like the resource isn't loaded when the javascript is run.

abp.localization.isLocalized('PleaseSelectSports', 'MyResource'); //with my resources!

And then I saw this

Localization logic is changed in v7.0

I have tried various things without luck and then I saw this here "I also fixed a bug in the abp.localization.localize method for MVC UI." that feels like its connected.

OK I just figured this out!

I had skipped this step External Localization Infrastructure and the reason was probably the "External" part!

I added this script tag and now it works

<script src="~/Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript?cultureName=@CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Name"></script>
