JEI Unhidden

by ProstoChel_

JEI Unhidden is a NeoForge addon that makes the item list in Just Enough Items show registered items that other mods leave out of the creative tabs.

What it does

JEI Unhidden scans the registered items of every loaded mod and adds to the JEI item list any that the creative tabs do not show. Some of these items were left out on purpose by their authors, for example because they are unfinished or do not suit normal gameplay, so the list can include content that is not meant for regular play. Items that were already known to JEI keep their variants, and the mod does not override them.

The addon only has an effect when JEI is installed alongside it. Items a player has hidden manually through JEI's edit mode stay hidden. An optional command setting controls the behavior and needs to be enabled in the configuration. Only the client needs the mod, because it runs entirely on the client, and a dedicated server runs without it.

JEI Unhidden is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. The mod is distributed for NeoForge and built for 1.21.1, 1.21.7 and 1.21.8, and modpack authors may include it as the license allows.

Key features

  1. Unhidden registered items

    Registered items missing from the creative tabs are added to the JEI item list, including ones that other mods omit.

  2. Preserved JEI variants

    Item variants JEI already knows are kept, so the existing entries stay unchanged.

  3. Respects manual hiding

    Items a player has hidden with JEI's edit mode remain hidden after the addon is installed.

  4. Optional commands

    A configuration option enables commands that control how the addon behaves on the client.

Questions

Does JEI Unhidden need Just Enough Items installed?

Yes. The addon works together with JEI, which provides the item list it modifies. JEI must be installed on the client alongside it.

Does a server need JEI Unhidden?

No. Servers do not need it; each player installs it for their own game.

Will items that were hidden on purpose by their authors appear?

Some will. The addon can reveal items hidden by their authors because they are unfinished or unsuitable for normal gameplay, and these may not function properly.
