Noob here. Downloaded mods not showing up in mod menu.

[OfficialCodyW]

First time modding Minecraft since the beta ages, and decided I was going to download SkyBlock. Accidentally messed up and now I need a grass block so I was looking into TooManyItems/JustEnoughItems.
 

• I downloaded the most recent version for Windows 1.11.2
   

 

• Opened file and had choice of: 

1.     Client (I chose this option)
2.     Server
3.     Extract
    

• I opened my Minecraft application, edited profile to forge and chose the 1.11.2-forge1.11.2-13.20.0.2227, saved, and finally opened to make sure it worked.
  (It is working, showing 4 loaded, 4 active with no mods installed yet. See picture below or at the end of the post, not sure of how it works)

 

• Then I downloaded my mod and drug it into the mods folder in %appdata%\roaming\.minecraft\mods
• Closed and reopened Minecraft and chose the same profile and It still shows the 4 preloaded mods, but no JEI mod
  
  
  
  Please help. And I apologize in advance if I did something wrong in this post, Its my first time on this forum. I will be more than happy to fix anything I missed or did wrong.

You downloaded JEI for Minecraft 1.10.2, while you are playing 1.11.2. Minecraft mods usually only work for 1 Minecraft version. JEI has a 1.11.2 version, you have to download that one for it to work.

Okay let me digg through the inter-webs for latest version. I will post if it does not work

Okay, It works. Like I said, I'm a noob.. I figured it was going to be a small detail I missed. Thank you

Wow, Its Been a while 
JEI is "Just Enough Items"
Similar to "Too many items" and Not enough Items"
