NEI stuck on recipe mode

[ForScience]

    I just downloaded technic launcher and wanted to play tekkit. Like the man I am I  wanted to spawn in items, but the nei was stuck on recipe mode. I looked it up and went into the nei.config and changed the lockmode to -1. I was able to enable cheat mode but when I clicked on an item it shows me its recipe. Some help would be greatly appreciated.

did you try the ingame options of nei?

 

If you are in your inventory, you should see an options button on the bottom left, use the first button (I think it's Inventory)

there should be the option to switch NEI modes...

Ya, it was already on cheat mode

[HeatHunter]

are you op on your server?

I'm having the same problem. How do you become an op when you're just playing single player? I have tried the nei.config edit and it doesn't work. Also most of the buttons usually located in the top left of the inventory are not there and editing it in the NEI options does nothing.

 

Use to work fine a few versions back. Just came back from a hiatus and is bugged.

Well im not on a server. Im playing single player so I didn't think it mattered.

If becoming op fixes the problem. How do you become op on a single player server?

I was having an issue with this as well and found a solution that worked for me:
 

Open your inventory.

Click "Options" in the bottom left corner.

Click "Inventory".

In the top right, click "Global". The button should change to "World".

Now, small buttons with a "W" will have appeared next to the options. Right-click the one next to "Cheat Mode".
