Not all recipes shown in NEI

Title: Not all recipes shown in NEI

Version: 3.1.2

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Java Version: 7v7

Description of Problem:

Using the in-game recipe lookup doesn't show all available recipes for an item. I had to look up the item in the list and then check the recipe for it instead of just following the chain of items leading up to it, such as making a generator. I looked at the cobblestone, which led me to the Furnace, but the Furnace would not lead me to an Iron Furnace or Generator.

Error Messages:

No error messages to show.

Error Log:

Nothing in console to indicate a problem.

There are several recipes that occupy more than one page, you can scroll through them all using the arrows at the bottom of the recipe window. And why wouldn't you search for what you want to make instead of the bottom tier items?

By pressing (default) 'R', you see the recipe of the selected item. Press (default) 'U' to see which recipes use the item, which is how you can get from a furnace to an iron furnace.

But even doing that, there are still some recipes that are missing. The reason I sometimes use this method instead of going straight to what I want is so I can just check the uses of the item in my inventory to see if I have everything instead of having to use the search function to find the item I want to make.

I know this can be done. What's happening though, at least to me, is that it doesn't show all the recipes in that dialog, even using both the arrows at the top to change category and the arrows at the bottom to change pages within the category.

Some recipe's just don't appear in the NEI menu. Great example is the Iron Chests mod.

It's not a 'bug', your NEI plugins either need to be updated, or you actually need to go search for them & install them. Example; I just noticed this evening that Thaumcraft was showing me almost none of the actual recipes for the mod, so I searched for "mod name" NEI plugin & found what I needed. I've also found the you'll most likely need to locate older versions of the NEI plugins as The Technic launcher is still on MC1.2.5. They're not at all hard to find.

On a side note, I still have some recipes that are not showing in NEI & attempted to update to newer versions of the plugins & MC bombed out on me, when I replaced the known working plugins (which I know work through testing) everything is peachy.
