same issue here with me and 3 of my friends.

same here version 11.5.2.1000
does not seem like it is pulling any of the client-side config options.

Thanks for the report!
What is the full location of the config file you are editing?
Can you try deleting the jei/ folder in your configs and letting JEI recreate the files?

The folder is config/jei/jei-client.ini

Recreating the config produced no change in behavior

on Forge, the client configs seem to work fine for me

Is this happening with Forge or Fabric?
I'll try it out to see if I can find the issue.

Fabric is also working

I need some more information to solve this issue, please paste your full fml-client-latest.log or latest.log to https://gist.github.com and link it here. Maybe it'll show some error with loading the config file changes.

This is on forge 43.2.1

Thanks for the log.
I can see it is loading the config file, can you confirm that you are editing the file at this exact location?
Loading config file: C:\Users\eagle\curseforge\minecraft\Instances\Druid's Life\config\jei\jei-client.ini

Can confirm

did some fiddling with the config. so the search bar location changed like expected but the item list did not get any additional columns.

if i shrink my screen the list does collapse to fewer columns but i cant seem to get it to display any more than 9 even with it stretched across both my 2k screens.

There are configs for the ingredient list and the bookmarks list in that file, are you editing the one for the bookmarks list?

...yes I was

Thank you lmao

Haha nice alright, thanks for confirming.
Maybe I should split this into multiple config files.

Might be helpful to include what field's being edited in the # Description. I know it says like literally one line above, but when google has said you're looking for the value called MaxColumns, you tend to just beeline for MaxColumns

Yeah I think it's bad design philosophy to blame the players when something like this goes wrong.
I'd like it to be easy to use even if you're not paying close attention.
It may be about time for me to make this more configurable in-game.

same for me. i promise i can read xD

I'm getting the same issue as reported before with some slight tweaks.
Mod Version: jei-1.19.2-forge-11.6.0.1013
Forge Version: forge-1.19.2-43.2.11

When I first launched I had old config files still in the config folder and the numbers for the rows and columns were not having any effect on the in game rows and columns. I tried deleting the folder and I have launched three times since then and the jei config folder has not regenerated.
