When lan worlds where first added it showed all the numbers. (123.45.678.9:123456) Then minecraft updated and it said server opened to port (123456) That would be fine if the computer i was trying to connect to the lan world showed the lan world as an option to connect to. Since i dont know the first set of numbers (123.45.678.9: ) i cant join any lan worlds with my other computer. I say make lan worlds show up like they are supposed to or put the first set of numbers back in the chat how it first showed up. (The numbers i put in are examples and not my real ip because i dont know my lan ip cause minecraft wont show it.)

It's not a bug, see MC-2583.
it is a bug, my other computer wont show the lan world as an option to connect to, i had an idea to fix it by putting the whole ip in the chat!!!!!
It's no bug, read the whole comments of MC-2583:

This is all intended, you are not supposed to directly connect to the person hosting the LAN world, you are supposed to join through the Multiplayer screen which will list any LAN worlds you can join automagically.We will change the wording to remove the 0.0.0.0 and make it just: 'Game hosted on port: xxxxx'.
im not getting 0.0.0.0.0. im getting game hosted on port xxxxx, i would like game hosted on port xxx.xxx.xx.x.xx:xxxxx, that way people who cant fix the issue with their system can direct connect to lan worlds instead of having to set up a server or sit next to their friend and play single player.
