A happy new year to you all. I am trying to make a decentralised application. Everything was going well until I came across a snag. Metamask does not show localhost "7545" which I need to connect the client facing application to the local network. I would be grateful for your guidance in this respect. Thank you.

You have to configure a new network to connect to via Metamask. Open Metamask go to settings > network > add network! and there add your new network. If it's a local node in RPC URL put: http://127.0.0.1:7545 and choose a name for it and save. Then go on the top menu of Metamask and choose your newly created network to be the host of the communication and that's it

    when adding a new network in Metamask it is not obvious what the Chain Id should be. How do you find the correct value?
