Mods not showing up in Forge

[twixbar]

i found a few mods i want to use and i downloaded forge and everything had gone smoothly until i added all my mods into the mods folder, and none of them actually showed up in game. i would show screenshots aswell but im not sure how to upload images here. but basically all my mods are in the folder it gave me (appdata > roaming > .minecraft > mods) but when i click on "mods" in minecraft all that shows up is minecraft 1.16 and forge itself.
