Similarly to Tato above, the addon isn’t automatically feeding. /fom feed works fine, and I’ve checked all the settings, but no show on teh automatic :(. I previously had jeff’s Petfeeder installed, though it’s deleted atm; would this make a difference?

I am having some intermitent issues with your amazing addon. These began happening with the 1.9 patch. The automatic feeding does not work at all. I have checked the /fom status and everything seems to be in order. I have even typed /fom reset, but it still does not work. I can type "/fom feed" (or, more accurately press the macro button for it), and it searches through my packs and finds the appropriate food for my pets.

I love your addons and anxiously await the day when Feed-O-Matic will be working as intended once again.

I have a problem, has been consisten, as far as I can tell, throughout the 109 series.

When I try to remove an item from my pet's list, I cannot. /fom remove [Turtle Meat]

generates a console tip of "The /fom Turtle command requires an item link; shift-click an item to insert a link". The [Turtle Meat] items is shift-click lined into the line, but the result is also the same if the item name is manually typed.

This seems to be consistent with attempted ermoval of other items as well.

Version in use is 10900.2 will try 10900.3 later. If you've done nothing specific on that issue, though...

There was (and still is) a check for DoT debuffs… I did change the way it parses text from the debuff tooltip in an attempt at locale independence, so it may not be catching all the same debuffs it did before. (In fact, I just noticed a case-sensitivity issue — I’ll get a fix for that out as soon as I can test it.)

If (now or in the forthcoming 10900.4 release) you come across a DOT that it seems to be ignoring, it’d help if you could show me the description of the debuff (from its tooltip). The “don’t feed during DOT” rule tries to look specifically for DOTs by parsing that description, as there are numerous debuffs that don’t affect a pet’s ability to eat.

Was there some check to not feed if pet had a damage DOT (poison, disease, etc)? With 10900.3, I just noticed I went through a whole stack of food in a few minutes, because I was killing Venomtip Scorpids in Burning Steppes.

I may be crazy but in prior versions, I swear there was a poison check.

Thx for the update.

However...

Adding custom food errors out with a line 1570 error: bad argument #1 to `find' (string expected, got nil)

Autofeed or manual "/feedomatic feed" errors out with a line 1369 error: attempt to compare number with boolean

That same autofeed or manual "/feedomatic feed" works fine IF and only IF I don't have special stuff like magebread in my inventory, else it does, with above error.

I do love the plugin however and last week I've realised how much I use it ><

Thank you for keeping this addon updated Gazmik. I was lost for a couple of days there without it.

Great! I tried debugging this yesterday when I figured that not all reagents was available until I had scrolled the entire list of recepies. Odd, but there seems to be lots of problems with loading information this last patch.
