I'm not sure if this was intended for this particular module. But so far I am able to setup the feeds source for a content and what I would like it to do is automatically import the content from that feeds source after it gets setup. Does anyone know which modules do I need to use to get this working? For the my content type I setup a feeder which is attached to the content. I also selected periodic importing to "as much as possible".

Bump - I also have this question.

How to get the Feeds Self Node Processor to automatically run (import or update) once a Node (with a Feed attached) is created, or on a Cron run...

I managed to fix this - it was as simple as having the wrong configuration (I hope this works for you too)

Under ...settings/FeedsSelfNodeProcessor (Feeds > Edit > Self Node process > Settings) make sure the "Author" is set as Your_Administration_Name rather than Anonymous (as default).

If this is Anonymous, then it the Self Node Processor wasn't updating on Cron run. Changing to My_Administrator_Name fixed this.

Good luck!

I've had the same issue with 7.x-1.x-dev and 7.x-1.0-beta3.
I tracked it down to FeedsNodeProcessor.inc within the Feeds module.

Search for and comment out this line:
$target_node->feeds['suppress_import'] = TRUE;

I'm not sure this is a bug, although I have no idea why it was hardcoded.
