When looking up a members name in LDS Tool App is displays the unit name under the head of household. Is there a way to display the unit number when looking in the directory on LDS.org?

The unit number is not displayed anywhere in the Directory, but that number is not needed by most people. What is the reason you want to see it displayed?

I am in the stake presidency and often I look up a name from our stake and would like to know which ward they are in.

Displaying the unit name has been requested before, but I think yours is the first to ask for the unit number.

It sounds as if displaying the unit name will work. And I believe that functionality has been requested.

Sorry, unit name is what I am looking for. Most of the units in our stake are a number. Thanks for letting me know it has been requested already. Hopefully it will be added soon.
Thanks

The feature was added some time ago, so it's not a matter of adding the feature. However, as you can read in this post, the feature was recently broken (the word "null" is displayed where the ward name is supposed to appear). So we just need to wait for it to be fixed.
