The recipes I added don't work. I've made sure that all of them use the correct mod id and item names but they just don't work. Attached is an image of the hierarchy and images of the recipe .json files.

Could be that you might need to refresh the files in your IDE for them to be found by the game. Otherwise I would recommend checking the log to see if it says anything about the recipes not working.

Refreshing did nothing and nothing seems out of the ordinary in the log, at least in the area of it after I joined the game. What exactly should I be looking for in the log anyway?

I would do a search for the recipe file names in the debug log file to see if something went wrong.

Ah found it.

[Render thread/ERROR] [net.minecraft.world.item.crafting.RecipeManager/]: Parsing error loading recipe beyond:soul_shard_from_soul_shard_block

[Render thread/ERROR] [net.minecraft.world.item.crafting.RecipeManager/]: Parsing error loading recipe beyond:soul_shard_block

Any idea what I did to cause this?

You need to remove the quotes from the nine so it just becomes:

"count": 9

and you need to remove the colon inside the string so it just becomes:

"item": "beyond:soul_shard"

I recommend using data generators to avoid having to manually create the json recipes and avoid these problems in the future.

I don't know what you mean by that and don't see a difference to how it originally was.
