There seems to be an issue from recent patches causing conflicts between key bindings set by addons and those set in the main Key Bindings menu not being resolved properly. I’ll see if I can fix it for the next release; in the meantime, if you use the Key Bindings menu to unbind P from whatever’s using it (it opens the spellbook by default), you should then be able to bind it to Feed Pet in FOM’s options panel without trouble.

I bound the letter “j” (because it was conveniently unused today), but a one-character macro with just the letter “j” only says, “j,” in chat.

I use the numpad for my key bindings a lot and it can be tricky depending on whether your NumLock is on or off which can result in 2 different bindings for the same key there.</p> To Steve, perhaps double check your key bindings in your bindings setting.
